The thing is that this is a private company, so there is no public market to provide liquidity. The company can make itself the sole source of liquidity, at its option, by placing sell restrictions on the grants. Toe the line, or you will f

Yes, it's interesting isn't it, how everyone is debunking eachother, and that hasn't changed much from the days of Petrie. Doesn't seem like the "science", after all these decades, is solid and settled yet what

I really wish I could donate to the project without giving them my full details. Why if I send you a couple bucks with paypal do I need to provide my address? PayPal does all the payment validation... Has thunderbird started doing what Fire

Very impressive, but the Egyptians supposedly didn't have the ability to form steel; also the holes were not chiseled, they were drilled leaving spiral striations that witness an incredible feed-rate. https://yewtu.be/w

I'm with you. The thing I find baffling is how anyone with any logical sense finds chatGPT useful for anything that requires precision, like math and code. If you do indeed follow the caveats that the LLM companies require placing alon

So your view is that these pieces are modern forgeries? It's _maybe_ possible we could create something like this with today's machinery, but if you're saying some ancient person with enough time could create these, it's

It actually didn't work. They were barely able to scar the surface with a jagged janky cut after many hard hours of hard work, and they weren't even attacking the hardest types of stone we see things created from. It's just n

Thanks for bringing these topics up, I find the raft of evidence quite compelling. I also find it quite interesting how much pushback on alternative hypotheses there is from the mainstream scientists. I even attempted to have a conversation

Obesity in the US is epidemic because of food producers using your same antisocial logic. "But if we don't add sugar, people won't keep choosing our brand over the sweeter ones, this is our most important metric." Sugar

I've seen a programmer-turned-streamer literally do this live. Woohoojin on twitch/yt focuses on content for Riot's Valorant esports title, during a couple watch parties he would make "super fans" using GPT with TTS

I think this will be key in a logical proof that statistical generation can never lead to sentience; Penrose will be shown to be correct, at least regarding the computability of consciousness. You could say, in a sense, that without a human

I think for water, what you really want is to _breed_ cavitation, but in a way where the jets created by bubble collapse are arranged to face opposite your desired direction of motion. Kind of like Astrophage.

Like sibling said, they've been pretty clear on the why. They called an emergency session and Senator Ricketts was pretty clear that they view pro-Palestinian tiktok content as Chinese propaganda that's inciting the youth to prote

Your theory seems sound. I see this theme of free-flow expressivity vs stricture and formalism in the choice of programming languages. CAD is like rust, where it never fits together the first time and parametric stricture lines the road of

Sounds like It's not that they can't ban players without a PSN account, but the punishment of being banned from playing any of your PS games online is real motivator. I thought we realized eons ago that forced puritanism is the an

Look at the stargazing snapshotter if you have access to deploy it. I pulls small blobs of the image as they're used by the host, and it tries to use heuristics to put startup data in the initial blob. https://github.com&#x2

Interesting script! Really dig how it harvest pubkeys from a GitHub org. Does it support fine grained control of which secrets are available for decryption by a particular key?

That's really surprising to hear! I have bought 100s of the 7.99 larges (don't get me started on the shift to one topping, where a sauce switch is counted), and have never arrived to an incomplete pizza... Though, I don't lea

A lot of the same topics in this thread sound similar to when Netflix changed their star system to a binary good/bad, and why. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13893672

From my PoV, much of the Ukraine war was the result of the powers in the US exercising their control over the world, and it sure didn't take long to dispatch two carrier battlegroups to the aid of Israel.

Don't you find it a bit frightening that this tech is daily giving a smaller and smaller subset of people in the world the unilateral ability to project their will onto the world? At least if they tried to draft in an unjust war, the p

I mean, all treaties are at risk of failure from bad actors, even implicit ones like mutually-assured-destruction, and in the later case it has been shown to be incredibly effective. But I don't feel like grinding the threat of powerfu

This is actually not a bad idea for an international peace treaty. If you make weapons, they must be open source. If the real power in these tools is the secrecy behind their design and implementation, seems like a great way to suck the pow

This is what's always confused me about the Unix FHS. A unified hierarchy makes (un)install complex and error-prone indeed. One of my favorite things about Nix is that it threw FHS away.

If you setup DMARC reporting, the big providers will send you a daily delivery report for emails from your domain to theirs. Great for tuning deliverability, and for catching ruffians attempting to use your domain. You're right though,

To me, pivot feels like YC saying: hey, we thought you were above the cut, that's why you're here. We know the low likelihood of an idea exploding, let's just get you focusing on other promising blocks as soon as we hit bedro
