We cannot all live like Americans because we do not have enough crude oil -- even not taking into account the consequences for the climate. So given there are constraints, resources must be rationed/allocated somehow. Maybe we now have

On those line items make the most optimistic assumption. E.g. use Elons Starship cost to orbit. Assume useful GPU lifetime of 6+ years. Assume max physical possible radiators etc.

I think what often gets confused is people saying it isn't viable with "it is not physically possible". It is physically possible, but it won't have positive ROI so it is not viable. If you have a paper/post doing t

This is a bit of systems difference. Under a french law system you would write laws to regulate the harms away. Under english common law liability court cases about the harm would lead to precedents and then to common law derived from it. T

If you have the docs public assuming a good search engine you don't need the chat bot since users can use e.g. Google AI.

The IGM 9-5 35 hour work-week 30+ holidays job pays nearly 100k€. Add the employer social contributions and it is 116k€. He wants good work ethic so I'd say at least 25% more work time, probably less holidays, say 20. The IGM job scale

The headline figure of the article is purchase power (PPP) adjusted. I couldn't find any numbers for east German states where the purchase power adjustment happens per state. Since housing is the largest component and housing costs dif

The largest EU benefit is that it makes democratic and rule of law backsliding unlikely. So if you invest money in Poland you can be reasonably sure that it won't get stolen from you. Hungary was a demonstration that this works over th

They are laying people off because the cost of financing have gone up. The risk free rate is now almost 5%. For equity financing you'd need to show revenue growth models that allows repayment at that rate plus equity risk premium (whic

He had a few tweets about how Trump is better for peace in the middle east ( https://x.com/nntaleb/status/1847252132665114887 ). And then he posted about "voting against genocide" https://x.com

He hinted at it on twitter. But looking now claims he voted for a third party candidate ( https://x.com/nntaleb/status/1910066542399967268 ) . Doesn't make it much better because of the first-past the post vo

Wise man Nassim Taleb who voted for Trump to help Palestinians and now Gaza and 10% increasing of the country he was born in is rubble. Maybe the lesson is that all those public intellectuals are not that wise and we should follow people mo

Well, if he says that a solution for me would be to move to a country with better tax policy. If he says that it is some issue with western European work mentality, that won't help because my CV would show that I am western European.

It's idk 10% for B2B in Poland and more than 50% in western Europe. Of course if you pay someone 135k vs 70k real income the first person will put in more effort. In western Europe you'd just have to specify the availability requi

As someone maybe in group (2). What kind of stereotyping is this? And why do you want to have non-complaining worker drones? Maybe older people from those countries are good at keeping their head down in soviet style work configurations, bu

My point is that not having fake stars may prevent you from gaining traction. Organic users still have to consider it, but then they might not dismiss it outright because it has five stars or something.

How do people know it exists to solve their problem? Even before LLMs it was hard to get through VC funded marketing by (commercial) competitors. My first Open Source project easily got off the ground just by being listed in SourceForge.

The problem is that if this is the game now, you need to play it. I'm trying to get a new open source project off the ground and now I wonder if I need to buy fake stars. Or buy the cheapest kind of fake stars for my competitors so the

Alternatively those scanning tools have the same issue all other security scanners have in that they have too many false positives. And when tuning them to have only few false positives, they miss the true positives. Then the real work is i

I'm not an expert on this, but maybe it is easier to pressure the verifiers to not verify sanctioned entities? Seems to be already happening with Ethereum US nodes maintaining OFAC lists. Maybe one can also pressure them to verify alte

Depends on if you see the use case of censorship resitant payment as something we should allow or not (such as paying the Ayatollah to go through the strait). I for one don't.

Irans leadership does not want to be killed by being bombed every few month. So they need to impose sufficient costs to deter bombing them. Idk what you are missing... maybe that people don't want to be killed and try to implement stra

The ultimate goal is to make customers spend money on Azure. Of course the information you published may make customers less likely to choose Azure, harming Microsoft. Being pwned can be explained away as an attacker having spent a lot of r

On a leadership level it seems problematic that they ghosted the feedback. Direcly this leads to people like Axel who feel ownership of the problem to break NDAs and create company harming posts. In my experience they at least respond with
