The thing about arguments like this is they're usually used in service of blocking housing. As in we shouldn't do what Austin did because it won't fully solve the problem. We should instead stick with the status quo, which ge

Thank you! Sounds like a fantastic setup. Are the claude code agents acting autonomously from any trigger conditions or is this all manual work with them? And how do you manage write permissions for documents amongst team members/agent

I can say how this worked for books. Used to be Amazon didn't enforce their pricing policy. So a bookseller could price their book's list price lower on a different site than on amazon. Amazon would discount to match, but pay the

Previously you could see which files Claude was reading. If it got the totally wrong context you could interrupt and redirect it. Since it's just reading at that stage there's no tracked changes.

Historically in a lot of niches such as search marketing etc, people would not name their successful projects because the barrier to entry is low. It someone can use AI to make a $50,000/year project in three months, then someone else

Millions of people around the world looked at the CIA world factbook. It was useful. It gives you a warm feeling about the USA and the CIA. Warm feelings are useful. If you deny this argument do you claim: 1. No one used it or it wasn'

The problem with this reasoning is it requires assuming that companies do things for no reason. However possible it was to do this work in the past, it is now much easier to do it. When something is easier it happens more often. No one is

Instagram has more users than Twitter, but generates no or few HN posts. Something can be used without generating any notable news or information. I've tried threads. Moderately engaging. Took nothing from it. Twitter has a HN like qua

Human greed has existed as long as humans have existed. "Grr greed" is an easy answer that's popular these days but by itself it can't explain a change as it's a constant factor in us as a species.

The OP said new carbon sources are not competitive. ANY investment is by definition creating capacity that would not be there without the investment. If carbon were not competitive it would not get investment. If you sum up all of the carbo

Could you please provide comparable figured of EROI for solar vs Nuclear? For a useful comparison you have to compare both sides, not give a stat in isolation and assert it is worse without comparing.

by graeme 9mo ago
Highly misleading stat. That's referring to capacity expansion, not new construction. Prior energy assets go offline and are replaced each year. The report you cite is discounting all of that, looking only at expansion above the baseli

What's wrong with steam? It's better than carbon. And solar + battery requires more carbon to produce than nuclear energy as there's a lot of mining and physical construction involved + you must overbuild to supply power or r

There might be a business model for Tailwind here. I was looking at buying Tailwind Plus after reading this news, and my first question was how to get AI to use it efficiently.

That's not quite correct. There's a lot of NIMBY pressure in cities, where land is scarce and there's lots of people to attend planning meetings to block building. However, if you want to build a datacenter, you don't ne

We'll need this tech later. If and when we get emissions to net zero we'll still have too much CO2 in the air. Better to have begun the research now.
