But who in bumfuck is going to stop you exactly? Are you talking about a grid-tie system, where you feedback to the power company? My experience in rural areas is that after the initial approval for utilities if needed, no one is coming bac

Is it not obvious why this is the case. If rural dwellers are cut off from the outputs of a city their lives are mostly unchanged and not impacted. If the city dwellers are cut off from the output of rural areas their existence is wildly co

I think that's a very idealistic idea. The reality is that some people / land area are simply far more important than others. It's not to say that the individual themselves is more meaningful as a matter of state, but there p

I don't understand why the energy rates for residents should go up at all? Why isn't the data center paying for it? Even my personal bill gets more expensive per kwh the more I use, shouldn't a data center using exponentiall

That's not a problem at all, you just roll some of your bull market gains into close dated ATM puts periodically. If the market is sideways sell calls.

The people gullible enough to fall for a scam like that are also gullible enough to follow more instructions 24 hours later. I think if you could force a call to the phone and have an agent or even AI that talks to user and makes sure no s

Ooooh, neat, I had a similar idea, like an AI olympics that could be live streamed where they have to do several multi-stepped tasks

But he fairly in depth described the problem and his reasoning for why it is a problem. There's nothing really to "jump on a quick call" about without actually first addressing the issues. Plus it just sounds, for lack of a

ART with HVGIC has basically solved dental caries since the 80s. But you aren't likely to get it in the US or most western nations because there is a massive industry around drilling and filling with resins and then solving the multitu

Cheap labor is still a major factor, but infrastructure is definitely another.

It would very easily allow someone to undermine their business. If you could shop at Walmart, by walking into Target it would be very easy for Target to say "here is the same item for $0.01 less" If people find a benefit from usin

I write software that is far less complex and I consider it to be "thinking" while it is working through multiple possible permutations of output and selecting the best one. Unless you rigidly define thinking, processing, computin

Yes, please this is literally what I want to see. I have yet to see an example where an LLM did anything that was sufficiently difficult. Not saying they can't be useful, but for anything past the basics they are really all over the pl

Those don't seem like reasonable targets at all to me. OpenAI's product is information and their power is engagement. It's more like a cross between Facebook that thrives on engagement and Google that delivers information. Go

Is there any reason to believe the current subscription models are viable and profitable outside of huge burn rates? Uber rides are now 4-5x what they cost when they were starting up, but uBer was disrupting an entrenched market with extre

Interestingly, eBay feedback is still one of the quality sources of reviews. Unlike Amazon, eBay doesn't have an incentive to promote garbage products.

Ok, forget the remote operator and AI and all that, is it possible to buy something even remotely like this that works reasonably well that I can control???

>Medicaid isn't paying parents to not work. New parents will still have to worry about paying bills and the economy. That would be up to their job if they had one of course, but Medicaid does have some cash benefits and if you have

I definitely think you are missing quite a bit of the overall idea. The author is foremost creating imagery with the statistics. The mass shooting thing tracks with what the point is. IMO it doesn't seem to be simply, "you're

Not that I'm pro being tracked or anything, but what difference does that make to your general existence and daily adventure if there is some sort of behind the scenes tracking going on. Why would that prevent you from wandering?

Realistically it's much more likely that someone in the US would be telling this story vs someone from Norway. Norway has only 50k births a year. The US has 3.6 Million, and >40% of those are 100% free to Medicaid recipients. So 1.4

Lebron James endorses KIA. Multi-billion dollar companies can afford and benefit from highly identifiable people so I don't really think that argument makes it any less likely to be an endorsement.

Ask ChatGPT about something you don't know about and it can appear very smart. Ask it in depth about something you are very knowledgeable about and the ignorance will quickly become apparent.

No, no one that's super boosting the LLMs ever tells you what they are working on or give any reasonable specifics about how and why it's beneficial. When someone does, it's a fairly narrow scope and typically inline with my
