While I suspect there are already many procedures in place for automatically flagging wrongthink, I could see LLMs being tuned to first pass intelligence sifting/summarization.

Woof, $109/hour on demand pricing (~$950k/year on demand, ~$590k/1year reserved). Super curious what a similar spec machine would retail.

I think the math on car ownership is more complicated than $X to own vs $Y to rent on demand. Being able to take an impromptu trip without any coordination is worth significant quality of life. It typically takes 5-10 minutes for an Uber to

I remember those days in pre-school where it was a nightmare to find parking.

There is a distinction between ownership and usage. By simple fact of owning a car, I have some $1-2k annual fixed costs (insurance + registration + minor maintenance). Gas scales with the utilization, which is lifestyle dependent.

I immediately get suspicious when I see a population average instead of a median. Is the luxury car market in Australia blowing up the average? Amusingly, in America, I purchased my used Honda for less than $16k.

As someone who watched S1, and enjoyed it. I never bothered to watch S2 owing to the two year delay between releases. I felt like I had probably forgotten too many plot points to fully appreciate it.

There are ~3 million US airline passengers per day. This does not seem like it refutes the point that these are low odds. I can also probably find some news reports of cannibals nabbing people at the grocery store. Does not mean I am going

Sure, anything can and does happen. But how many similar assaults happen annually by strangers at a Starbucks/bus/library/school? Life is a risk.

Maybe they work for Ticketmaster or another fee-heavy industry?

Assaulted on a flight? Stranger danger, I guess, but this seems like a very low odds event.

At least as a consumer, I can actually price compare my options if the out-the-door price is made public. Nobody made companies hide the prices in the first place. It was a deliberate tactic to trick buyers.

I can settle for a public bathroom, but surely we have the technology to construct walls without significant gaps. Spend the one-time extra investment so that I can pretend I have some privacy.

There are a ton of factors that go into making solar a sound decision. Will the person plan on living there for the next 5-10 years? Will installation costs finally start falling three years from now? Will the government institute a large g

Unless you are looking for the full-on nostalgia trip, I think Black Mesa is how people should play the game today. Many quality of life improvements and stream-lining decisions. Except for Xen. Worst part of the game, and they made it long

Perception is everything. For quite a while, Sam Bankman-Fried was billions in the hole, but could still secure more funds on demand.

I thought the side walls were there to ensure she did not roll off the bed in the night and die from the fall.

There are light stains that can make the wood grain pop. But you are correct, to my American eye, that unfinished look really detracts from the full effort.

Last I looked, the nogil implementation was some 5-10% slower than the current, owing to all of the extra locking.

Ah of course. I had a loft bed in college, though it was hollow underneath for my desk. Seeing it as a less ramshackle structure with built-in drawers was new to me.

Agreed. There are so many potential observers who could have detected the craft, feels far more likely that there was someone who had a good bead on the target.
