My interpretation is that the demand comes from the pornography companies themselves. E.g. trafficked people forced to make pornography.

Whether or not “humans do it” isn’t relevant. You can walk around with a copyrighted song in your head. That is not copyright infringement. But if you take that song, create a digital copy, and distribute it for money, then you are violatin

It’s also possible that higher air moisture leads to more wildfire risk. The moisture in the air needs to come from somewhere, after all. More moisture in the air means less in the ground.

Isn’t that the point of simulation? To gain understanding of something? I think the underlying point is that, if our understanding is so incomplete that we can’t simulate a single atom, how can we trust all of our other physical understandi

I don’t see why a cause of increased incidence of wildfires should be ignored. Using your logic, we can ignore any cause of wildfires as long as there is more than one potential cause. For instance, why not say: wildfires are a threat regar

Shuffling and sorting don’t seem related at all. Naively, I would expect shuffle to be linear in time complexity.

> Inconsistent enforcement of rules is a proven way to instill caution via fear and uncertainty. Where was this proven? My experience is the opposite. Inconsistent enforcement makes people think they can get away with breaking the rules.

I don’t think my words were abrasive. I was just pointing out that there exists financial incentives that disfavor co-op formation. If my argument, which is opposed to your argument, assumes “founders act as rational market participants” do

Low bandwidth is fine. One way that smart TVs track you is fingerprinting the audio that you're listing to, even turning on the microphone to do so. They do this to sell analytics on the content you watch. Audio finger prints are prett

Even if we're imaging a scenario with free government money, I'm not sure a co-op makes sense because of the financial incentives at the heart of capitalism. Imagine you could get government money to start a co-op or take private

Wouldn't this occur naturally if trees were "programmed" to have a mast year every N years? Sure, some trees wouldn't be synchronized at first, but the likelihood of propagation is proportional to the number of other tre

I didn’t find Copilot all that useful. The only time I got any use from it was using a new library. It kind of worked for sketching out an initial attempt at using the library, at least good enough for me to get started. The code it generat

Yes that is the implication. Starting something requires raising money and organizing things. Generally, at the start, only a small number of people care to do this work. And once they do it, why would they give their ownership stake away t

There are many people like you, and many more who would like to buy but are priced out entirely with current prices / rates. My hypothesis is that the forces driving low inventory are also creating massive demand to build up that will
