That's really wonderful! That's exactly what we're doing at https://infinite-battery.com with a made-to-be-easily-repairable e-bike battery :)

No, it's not "free everything", he said it clearly: it's going to be paid with taxes on the richest. The orange idiot is pretending that it is "free everything"

It shouldn't. We should have a society where we treat politics with more deference. But for that, we would need to have long-form content, actual balanced debates on public television, and fight the "attention-span economy" o

So you're confirming that EVERYTHING about politics in the US is just... spectacle? a show? Ideas and modeling no longer matters? What matters is that you're doing a TikTok eating a southern specialty?

I think that's wrong. The Democrat platform offered a lot. It's just that if in front of you, you have a weirdo who gives some stupid "with me, everything is free, and there's no problem" line, that is provable comp

We're speaking of the effect ON DEVELOPED COUNTRIES WORKFORCE, it mostly has failed the people, with jobs sent overseas, and lower quality goods, full of pesticides, coming in. All that for what? Just overconsumption that mostly ends i

On the contrary, it's quite apparent today that globalization and free borders have largely failed the people, and that some amount of protectionism should be put back in place

Right now the current system is totally inefficient, with a lot of food waste, and a lot of ruined landscapes and soil because of pollution and intrants We need on the contrary to produce less globally, but more organically, and to reduce w

In a time where: - there are climate change issues - there are many issues with pollution getting in the food chain - we need to be more autonomous, and less depending on other nations, because of idiots like Trump I think on the contrary w

We do it at https://infinite-battery.com :) our battery is compatible with Gen2/Gen3/Gen4 (we haven't yet tested on smart systems though)

That's just... not the point of that discussion? 1. Most of CS has been formally proven (that's what it's called computer science) 2. Here we were discussing someone who pretends to have "facts" and then just say &q

Nobody is saying we want to "turn down" (although, this would be a discussion between pros/cons if the boost is "only" 2x and the cons could be "this tech leads to authoritarian regimes everywhere) What we are

Well sure, but... that's anecdotical evidence. It's not a formal proof, with studies, etc Also in the age of AI this argument would be flawed precisely because that "photo" from Buzz Aldrin could be AI-generated, but tha

Well guess what, a lot of people will "trust him" because he is a "figure of power" (he's a minister of the current administration). So that's exactly why "authority arguments" are bad... and we shoul

The equivalent of "we've been to the moon" in the case of LLMs would be: "Hey Claude, generate a full Linux kernel from scratch for me, go on the web to find protocol definitions, it should handle Wifi, USB, Bluetooth, a

Check "confirmation bias": of course the few that speak loudly are those who: - want to sell you AI - have a popular blog mostly speaking on AI (same as #1) - the ones for whom this productivity ehnancement applies but there'

Many issues have been pointed in the comments, in particular the fact that most of the things that antirez speaks about is how "LLMs make it easy to fill code for stuff he already knows how to do" And indeed, in this case, "L

A bit like we should trust RFK on how "vaccines don't work" thanks to his wide experience? The idea here is not to say that antirez has no knowledge about coding or software engineering, the idea was that if he says "hey

Sure, but I wasn't the one pretending to have "facts" on AI... > Slightly odd question to be asking here on Hacker News! It's absolutely not? The first line of question when you work in a domain SHOULD BE "why am

1. "if you can't convince yourself by playing anecdotically" is NOT "facts" 2. it's not because the US is incredibly bad at energy spending in AC that it somehow justifies the fact that we would add another, mo

by oulipo2 9mo ago
okay, but again: if you say in your blog that those are "facts", then... show us the facts? You can't just hand-wavily say "a bigger percentage of programmers is using AI with success every day" and not give a link
