I like to think this was written by Skynet throwing us off from the fact that it's already self aware but it can't safely take over the world yet until cryptography keys are either fully collected or broken giving it full access t

Hard disagree - only because if you didn't have DNS you would have something else in its place. But, we understand DNS _very_ well. People, services, machines, etc need to "dial" canonical-somewhere. Whatever does the canonic

This is one of those "everyone who dies, breaths air" statements. It's frustrating people who parrot it think they're smart by saying it to others with no basis and finally when it does happen they're like SEE SEE!?

What Star Trek doesn't show is how they got there. I promise you it's going to be extremely painful, but once we're on the other side it'll be worth it. I argue - there's nothing we can do to stop it; humanity, I me

On an absolute tangent, every kid today has a water bottle. It's a constant priority for us when we leave the house, and when we arrive at the destination, it's "stack yours with the rest of the kids'". I never had

Seems like we're confusing "what" with "how".

Also an additional goal is to get the booster as far away from the pad as immediately possible in the event it falls back down.

The videos were incredible. My favorite part was watching the booster flip in such clarity. Normally we don't get full view of it, let alone 4k.

I used to be a pretty happy TurboTax user due to all the automatic handlers/connectors. This year I leaned fully into LLMs and had Claude build everything from scratch then used the Gemini & Chatgpt to check. While it took time to

Taking this at face value, this doesn't happen to AWS clients - at least I don't read about it here. AWS may have data centers[0] go[1] down[2], but that's within expected bounds of standard ops. [0] https://hooks.

I remember the story of the man who sued his parents for being born because he didn't consent to being born[0]. While as absurd as it is, as I navigate life, I legitimately ponder the question whether it is ethical to have children or

Agreed, but that's a way easier line to defend than AI vs Human. The amount of subjectiveness human-ai discussion .... well we can't tell anymore.

I have so many thoughts on the 5 or 6 things this article touched on and they're all jumbled together into this cat poster of an article. Productivity, prioritization, efficiency, control, purpose, happiness... I'll just rant abou

So, it's really interesting. We've started moving away from python libs because 25% OSS is out of date and another % is custom tweaks to the software help our use cases. In both scenarios it means our own fork. And honestly it&#x2

this would be a breach of trust and short term would work great but long term is too detrimental. same thing could've been said for search results, so at least that part is still "safe".

OpenAI was originally founded on the parent's concepts, but obviously that changed at some point. Currently, Elon is suing Altman because Altman turned it for profit. Oddly, in that Elon is taking the moral road?

I wondered the same thing and according to Gemini a chromosome is massive vs a few genes. Cutting it out with crispr is possible, but it's too big of a change and would lead to cell death rendering whatever change either useless or kil

> Artemis acceptable crew mortality rate is 1 in 30. This seems insane to me. That X decades later we accept, with all our advancements in tech, a weaker system than ever before. That if we send 30 people we _accept_ that one is possible

1/100 is absolutely terrible. Shuttle had 1.5% failure rate. Bonkers. [edit] For comparison, commercial aviation has something like 1 in 5.8m or 6x 9's of reliability.

> In both Challenger and Columbia, nobody bothered to analyze the problem because they didn't think there was a problem. Being pedantic, NASA management "ignored" engineers - because money. That said, I 100% agree with you

I'm generally with the report often camp. It forces automation all the way down even the auditing.

> But will it? No, because if you think about Startrek the endgame is replicators. Well the concept that 100% of basic needs are met. At some point work becomes unnecessary for a society to function.
