Among one of the other aspects, one of the quite hopeful posts I've seen on X was from X engineering: - Completely rebuilt the For you serving and ranking systems from the ground up, resulting in a decrease 90% reduction in lines of co

It is more like a piblic service than ever now. Maybe the "bias" is more visible for some people than before, but it's gone down to 10% of it was before (no mass bannings of conservatives and general oppressiveness against sp

This is really only because he's moving it more towards something like an utility - it still is a for-profit company, one can't easily just change that especially considering the hostility towards freedom of speech in the world cu

I find it silly saying that risk of a few settlers dying on the first tries outweighs the risk to the whole species when we arent' ready.

This is the thing. Living on mars is something for the strong. Something that forces us to focus on what's important. With earth we may quickly swing from paradise to a total catastrophe. Which would be worse than mars and only reach m

It's not just romantic, it's literally the only way to live in the case where this good place to live turns bad. We absolutely have the technology, even immediate capability to turn on nuclear winter. There is simply no argument a

> Good. And once it makes the trip to Mars and lands successfully, with 100t of payload, then I will accept it as an argument. This guy is trolling. Think if Kennedy said the same about funding the Apollo program only after computers wer

You're nothing but the harbringer of your own doom with that kind of uninformed loser talk. You know how unrealistic and pointless it sounds like, especially said on HN? Back when Kennedy first harnessed the whole US towards something

It doesn't rain in the cave. Even when the rain is over, is the rain comes back you won't be covered. Better never leave the cave.

100 years with ZERO humans on mars? You have no sense of risk or scale. We should be there already. We're focusing everything on the easier planet that might not be livable after one year of bad politics. In 100 years your kind of thin

If there was a new continent somehow popped up we wouldn't be fine just sending some drones there or taking pictures of it with satellites. We have had the capability to develop ourselves to send a colony to mars in 10 years if we real

The delays aren't a problem because you could do this even if there was minutes of delay due to planes often flying in a straight line. It's true that dead reckoning doesn't work for large distances, but would be mostly corre

Make a massage simulator. JK. Took a few tries to figure what that abbreviation means even through chatgpt. Another try: Make a site that shows when airplanes are going to be close to your position, and include a dead reckoning-based foreca

I think the most important point is that working in-office should be the strong default. Sometimes even employers seem to think of this too haphazardly while their company suffers from workers being unable to do the socializing part of inte

This post reserves a prize for illuminating how something that looks authorative due to words like "based on data" and listing sources can still be extremely misinforming. Here's some real data: https://www.similar

Twitter clones tend to be a lot more bubble-like because they kind of try to seem like a "town square" but actually and up being more like a North Korean town square. Or a square in a gated community. HN obviously is its own area

Neither does Google as-is in the same role, it's "Alphabet" now. Semantics don't matter but I guess you don't have any other comeback?

No. You're being childish. Language barriers is something a good platform avoids you hitting in to, and instead of ever showing language that the reader very likely doesn't know, it would auto-translate.

>using _other_ options is the opposite of a bubble. Where the word "other" can be easily substituted for "alternative" means you're leaving the larger contiguous area for something smaller. Twitter is the de-fact

Such a silly thing to use this or the other weird instanced services. I go to that and half is in Chinese? Just use Twitter for the "one" platform instead of intentionally locking yourself to a bubble. Twitter hasn't gone any

This does sound very intriguing. Even if it would only take away some inference load when it becomes viable. Has a non-zero chance of spawning the next leap in computing? Considering IBM likely isn't going to crater in stock like some

Say that to ACLU in 1978. Or any generally civil person, who likely thinks that using violence to drive your political values makes you worse than your opponent. The side really doesn´t matter. Especially in a world where people tend to pig
