We need both! rooftop solar alone is not going to solve our energy needs. If projects like this don't get built, the realistic alternative in the US these days is burning coal, which is both expensive and destructive to the ecology an

I'm working on a DnD character sheet app! I spent last week implementing the core DnD SRD ruleset, but what I'm really excited about is ML integration. I want to add a self-hosted fine-tuned ML model that acts as a character and D

This seems unlikely. We've had decades of horrible security issues, and most people have not gotten paranoid. In fact, after countless data leaks, crypto miner schemes, ransomware, and massive global outages, now people are running LLM

We need content for ML! If you don't upload every moment of your life, you're not doing your part for humanity.

Lol this makes sense. I really respect the author of mailman3's dedication, but the architecture of the system is insane. There are 3 services -- the actual mail delivery piece, the admin interface, and the archiver -- all talking over

I have my own site. But the people love engagement - it motivates a lot of content creation. Back in the day we had web log rings and WordPress comments, but that stuff is dead on the modern web, it's too adversarial an environment. My

With all due respect this is bullshit. The predictions over the past 20-30 years have remained remarkably accurate. You're conflating anti environmentalist spin on the science with the actual science.

Avoiding the platforms is of no use; you're surrounded by people who are very much NOT avoiding them, and your life is unavoidably intertwined with those people.

Lifepo4 is much much less likely to runway self ignite than li ion batteries, at the cost of lower energy density. I'm surprised to hear of laptops with lifepo4 -- what are some examples?

Yeah, Babel had an interesting premise that didn't ultimately coalesce into a good book. I stuck with it, but only because I'm a compulsive book finisher.

The point of publishing it seems to me to be "kids in classrooms also think this is a problem". The subject matter is often talked about in the upper echelons and among adults, it's good to see a kid's prospective. It&#x

I agree we should create the kind of society that allows kids to focus on learning in school. I think just giving up on learning in school and turning it into pretend time where teachers pretend to teach while students pretend to learn is n

This is a ludicrous take. You of course have to have a basic understanding of the world to know what to do. Otherwise you're just floating along in some sort of solipsistic fog. Your brain came built in with amazing capacity to learn
