Because you fail to understand how economy and the world works. No, they don't "only do so by entering into transactions where all sides are better off", that's just a convenient fiction for people like you who never tho

You do not appear to have a solid grasp on how the world functions. Billionaires don't reach this extreme amount of wealth by "work" (unless you believe in magic tales and "tooth fairy", but probably you're old
183.
by oulipo2 8mo ago
The issue you're having is that thinking that because you're giving some UBI, people will suddenly "stop working" (wrong: ALL STUDIES show the exact opposite)
184.
by oulipo2 8mo ago
Exactly. Also it's not the "billionaires" who are "making value". They are lousy at making anything. It's the workers (engineers, farmers, factory workers) that "make". The billionaires are just good

No we shouldn't be "glad that people can become billionaire". We should be glad that people can get reasonable wealthy, say, $100M net worth would be more than plenty, and would ensure that: people who worked hard got a lot (

Billionaires are a parasitic class, in the sense that they can wield enough power to sway elections, and do very concrete damage to society. Taxing away billionaires is not "to punish them", it's to PROTECT society.
187.
by oulipo2 8mo ago
Exactly. We should tax billionaires away.

Exactly. At some point the greedy rich people will realize that their well-being immediately depends on the well-being of others around them, and that at some point if you want to increase YOUR longevity (/quality-of-life, /pleasu

And? that's what "rolling out" is about, to test and gradually use the scheme if it works

Really cool! Looking forward to the findings of that study!

Exactly! That's what motivated us to design a repairable e-bike battery at https://infinite-battery.com

The idea would be to share the clipboard between mac and iOS, and have a "clipboard keyboard" on iOS, so in an app, I can easily access my favorite clips and paste them (at least for text ones) Obviously, this would be even better

by oulipo2 8mo ago
Itsypad looks really nice! Are there some plans to add an iOS keyboard to access the clipboard too? :)

The parade is easy: just add a small amount of random noise (even not visible to the human eye) to the blurred picture, and suddenly the "blur inversion" fails spectacularly
195.
by oulipo2 8mo ago
Those unblurring methods look "amazing" like that but they are just very fragile, add even a modicum of noise to the blurred image and the deblurring will almost certainly completely fail, this is well-known in signal-processing

Okay but I fail to see how this is "new tech"? Basically it's just... agreeing upon a description format for UI components ("put the component C with params p1, p2, ... at location x, y") using JSON / zod schem

Interesting... do you have specific use-cases in mind? On my side, my fleet of IoT devices are communicating over MQTT with mTLS so I think it would be sufficient to "emulate" all the features of a signed URL, but I might be missi

Almost all of the rapes are in-family, so it's more often white people that lean right-wing and know the victim

We're building a repairable and fireproof e-bike battery at https://infinite-battery.com :)

No, far less than rightwing incels and "nice guys" who want to subdue women because they think that "they deserve to have the attention of any woman"

Alan Turing is FAR from the first computer scientist, though, if we want to be pedantic

It's not cheap at all once you scale

by oulipo2 9mo ago
It's very bad to search stuff, or have structured database, also it costs a lot
204.
by oulipo2 9mo ago
Nice! How do you "preinstall the extensions" so that you can have eg timescaledb and others available to install in your Postgres? Do you need to install some binaries first?

The problem is how the society allowed him to build that wealth. It shouldn't be allowed, not in that way. He took more from the society than he gave back. And when you take from society, you're not supposed to decide alone how to
206.
by oulipo2 9mo ago
Exactly. The LLMs are quite good at "code inpainting", eg "give me the outline/constraints/rules and I'll fill-in the blanks" But not so good at making (robust) new features out of the blue

At https://infinite-battery.com we're making a repairable battery where you can change the cells, because there's no reason your e-bike battery should work differently than your remote control: when batteries are drain

Mise is also very nice (for dependencies and for scripts) https://mise.jdx.dev/

1. ChatGPT is shit 2. We prefer anti-AI regulations and not having a stupid Musk indoctrinating half the country
