Right, then they can’t afford to live. Telling people to stop after all this time is a non-starter unless you’re willing to militarily stop countries from burning oil.

I think everyone understands that but it’s cheap and the world depends on energy. So it’s not they people don’t get it, it’s that the world is working toward getting renewables cheap enough to fulfill current and future energy needs.

I think hallucination is better and more accurate at it implies a bit of imagination and buffoonery deceit. I don’t think confabulate matches as well as it implies confusion or mixture of different ideas. ChatGPT isn’t confused, it’s making

Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avery review Dark Star on their first podcast episode. [0] It’s worth listening to even if you don’t really follow their work. It’s what finally motivated me to watch this movie after seeing it in the video store

Capitalism doesn’t make cable suck. There are far more profitable companies with non-hellish customer experiences. This is just a bad philosophy and short term thinking. Cable would be more profitable if they wanted to be. Blaming their shi

I would think AI helps graphic design jobs as it take a graphic designer to properly use AI and it just speeds them up. In that you still need photoshop skills to pick resolutions, palettes, final touchups, etc etc. So graphic designers wil

Nationalizing is unlikely to increase productivity and innovation. There’s multiple competing goals here and we need to think about how to achieve them. If we think that Intel is fixed and unlikely to need to change, perhaps nationalize and

No, it would affect login status. Just a delay between reset attempts. No reset actually occurs until one prompt is accepted.

There’s definitely hair to deal with and it’s a little messy, but it’s never a blocker. But I’d say the error rate is actually very low, maybe .1-1% and nowhere near 10-20% of data being messed up.

I got a little snarky but I think the analogy holds. Esperanto is a superior language to English. And English has many flaws. Theoretically it would be better to have all pilots and airports learn an efficient language. But it would be stup

CSV is very durable. If I want it read in 20 years, csv is the way to go until it’s just too big to matter. Of course there are better formats. But for many use cases friends encourage friends to export to CSV.

This makes sense considering that there are so many apps. It’s similar to how the vast majority of books aren’t read and the vast majority of papers are not cited. Apps are a long tail market so it’s not surprising that so few make money. T
