People think I'm overreacting, but I don't care. I'm not stepping on a 737 Max in the next three years.

I would. I'm that afraid.

LinkedIn is aging like fine wine in Microsoft’s cellar. Microsoft surprises me with OpenAI, LinkedIn and GitHub. Their own engineering practices aren’t that great but they seem to excel at what to acquire and what to invest in.

If you don’t mind me asking, what specific area do you specialize in with your consulting work? I’d like to do what you do in the future and I’m just curious.

As a person from a country similar to Romania, I can empathize with him. When you lose trust in the state and how they spend your money, even a 1% tax is too much.

The default subreddits are truly awful. r/worldnews is the first one that comes to mind. They were accusing the murdered Reuters journalist of being a member of hamas. I decided to never look at those subreddits ever again.

That's a great reminder, thank you! I should revisit the guidelines and the FAQ sometime. Also, here is a link that explains undocumented features and behaviors of HN for anyone interested: https://github.com/minimaxir&

I think it's tragic that you have no sympathy for children and innocent civilians dying. No matter the side.

Bit of a tangent, but I'm proud of the HN community. This post was flagged almost immediately, even though there were around 70 upvotes. Then, the admins decided to give us a chance. And so far, the discussions have been civil and very

That's not it; there are many upvotes and not many comments on both of those submissions. Honestly, I'm disappointed at the admins.

And your client's needs won't change ever? The product won't need anything done on it until vacuum decay? Finally, someone made a proper JS library.

Those are heavily disputed claims.

Population predictions are one thing. But saying the same thing for the world economy is absolutely baseless.

Yeah, this is how ASI will get us.

He was a strong proponent of using nuclear first strikes (based on game theory and nothing else) against the USSR. So your point is debatable.

This might have legal implications, so talking with a lawyer is a great starting point.

That I understand, but my thinking automatically goes to control and restrictions. A superintelligent AGI that's as restricted as chatgpt in terms of what it can actually control seems... not so existentially dangerous? In that scenari

Could you explain to me how AGI is an existential threat to humanity? All the arguments I've read so far feel so far-fetched it's unbelievable. It's in the order of making an AGI and making it control the Pentagon (!?).

This article makes me wonder how many groundbreaking discoveries are buried under academia's bureaucracy and ego battles.

Yes, exactly. All of these are physiological symptoms of anxiety. When the body is in a fight or flight mode and there is no apparent danger, we tend to notice these much more. But overall, they are absolutely and without doubt harmless.

The first image is quite disturbing. I wasn't ready for that. Maybe we need tags for those kinds of images.

If you’re new to meditation, then I can highly recommend “Waking Up”.

This is the third time this week I've seen a study related to microplastics. Should I be alarmed? If so, what can I even do? If I'm understanding these studies correctly, these microplastics are everywhere. In our bodies, in our w

I tried migrating from Chrome to Firefox with the recent developments. The user experience of Mozilla could be better, imo. After not liking Firefox, I tried four more browsers: Orion, Arch, Brave, and Vivaldi. I finally landed on using Bra

How does this comment fly on HN? This person is basically calling all Muslim immigrants homophobes, which is so far from the truth.

All the eyewitnesses already said that the coastguard caused this, yet there is no shred of outcry from the Western countries. The Greek coastguard drowned 500 refugees and immigrants. Let that sink in for a moment.

That is perfectly possible.
