Commenter says language carries no meaning. Why discuss? (How would you discuss?)

That appears to be meaningless. Please explain without using language.

They're fine. Mostly the butter stuff tastes good. I wouldn't put snail up there with badger or owl.

They're serving notice. Data in vendor custody belongs to the vendor, not to the customer. Customers can go to court to prove otherwise.

It's not necessarily true. But it's pretty likely. It's worth considering as a possibility.

Yes. I feel that way very strongly. What contains no substance is a discussion of how we are smarter about knot theory than the knot theorists ... without even connecting to what makes the problem difficult. Maybe you meant to ask something

They only had research mathematicians working on the problem. Until now they didn't have HN commenters. So work went very slowly.

I think you're saying that "pocket encyclopedia" is one definition of "lossy encyclopedia" that may occur to people (or that may get marketed on purpose). But that's a very poor definition of LLMs. And so the d

Nobody is arguing otherwise, including the people interviewed in the article. The claim was that these people didn't pay. That claim turns out to be incorrect.

They knew they didn't have guaranteed access. It's in the article.

"People who bought houses and chose an off grid life in a water stressed area and did nothing to alleviate the situation, only add consumption." They paid money for the water.

They paid the municipality for the water, but they didn't pay the municipality. Got it.

Yeah, when baseline efficiency is zero then there's probably room for improvement.

Yeah, valid point.

But it's easy to build & easy to read about, so "why isn't it everywhere already" still feels like an open question.

PG pointed this out a while back. He said that AIs were great at generating typical online comments. (NB I don't know which site's comments he might have been referring to.)

This sounds appealingly highbrow, but it's not particularly accurate in my experience. I think the critics often get into their own bizarre headspace that nobody else cares about.

As a casual user of Rotten Tomatoes, I can't make any sense out of the ratings. They could be random. The 'critic' ratings have no predictive power at all for me. The 'user' ratings have some value but not a whole

Yep. It's the ancient "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM" and "pick your battles" ideas. Everyone has always been amazed how powerful those can be. Agreed, often enough these stupid "imperatives" are ba
