Having a standard is not even possible technically when you have 1 player that is too good. Due to Hyrum’s Law, any small divergence from the spec will be observed and relied on. Why would you work against the spec which is nebulous, when y

So how is this any different if we don’t have a browser? People still want to visit “websites” which in your world is even worse. Because now every website is a distinct application (yikes!). The problem is that people are willing to run ar

Browsers are just “standardised” OS at this point. Really, what is the difference? It seems to me that people basically wants a 1 to 1 mapping between every OS feature to browsers. I wouldn’t be surprised if this standard will fall apart in

Not true. It is only that way because people have only considered a single kind of hypothetical human (probably of themselves). But solving this merely requires us to integrate all of these solution into 1 by mapping the personality -> s

I think I understood completely but you are wrong. Sarcasm depends on “how” not “what” is being communicated.

You specifically mentioned that this is a footgun: > auto& x = state.locked()->x; But I don't see how the reference here is gonna make a difference unless i am reading the lifetime of the lock here incorrectly. For example, t

> let res: Vec<_> = iterator.iter().map(|x| x.foo()?).collect(); This make sense to me? Why shouldn't it return early from the lambda in `map`? Had it return the "highest level function" in the scope then that would

But that doesn't explain why US as a government is not allowed to do human genome experimentation (HGE) ? In fact, it makes even less sense to make HGE taboo than AI for the reason you mentioned. It doesn't make sense to ban somet

You can always augment your account with your government ID or some sort if you are famous.

It doesn't but you can always augment your ID by attaching a government ID or some sort. On the internet tho? If you _only_ have texts, there is no feasible way to distinguish a person and a bot.

You can use the distributed proof to say that these accounts belong to you. So if you are doubtful about the integrity of a post, you can look up their blockchain ID and find out what have they been doing elsewhere publicly. Additionally, a

Isn't blockchain a kind of distributed proof? You can now say that this user in reddit is related to this post in hackernews via blockchain. Of course, there's no way to prevent a bot to create multiple accounts in multiple websit

This is one of the few places where blockchain is actually useful? It is not possible nor worthwhile to have anonymous discussion that we do right now anymore given how good these LLMs are. And i am not sure if specific lingo or “lurk more”

I dont understand why people are so opposed to or feel its ridiculous to halt progress on AI when we do the same thing for experiments on human genome? Is China going to stop because we do?

The danger is socioeconomic. AI will displace many, many jobs (it already does). Many people will claim that we will simply create different, new jobs. However, we have to think about what kind of job ja now viable for the average person? T

This is a very naive take. Out best psychologists aren’t using their expertise to solve mental health but to hack them. What makes you think people will use LLMs for good? It’s far more profitable to do bad with it.

Created more jobs, sure but what kind of jobs? More complicated, mind draining jobs that many, many people are simply not capable of. The general human intelligent cannot catch up with the rate that the market is asking for.
