Public services arent supposed to generate a profit, they are supposed to serve the public. If the system prevents people from being run over then its well worth the money

I feel like private companies enforcing when you can and cant move at a stop sign is a libertarian hellscape. This isnt alot better, but at least its a provate vendor that gets data to the government who then decide to cite whats supposed t

Incentive structures need to be alligned better. Its so disheartening to see tech that works fine in europe fail in the US because of corruption and negative motivations. What incentive structure could make these things be more benficial th

Itd be great if this sort of system could be trustworthy. How could that be done. Public data? But then that opens the data stream up to criminals who could stalk people and stuff. Third party audits? Who do you trust to do that? NGOs?

With computer vision the case of checking for pedestrians in the vicinity is trivial. So these cameras are definitely worth it for that I do disagree about the rolling stop though. After drunk driving, drivers getting too relaxed and workin

Absolutely not past peak gaming. Gaming as a medium hasnt even begun to peak. The infrastructure aside, creators havent properly used games to make art yet, just toys. In terms of film history, we are currently in the "train approachin

Its all part of the stack. Every part of it was critical. Id say proton without the deck wouldnt have the same impact because there would be nothing to create the groundswell of linux adoption for gaming

The translation might not be expensive, but its soulcrushingly robotic. My interest in LLMs isnt to increase shareholder value, its to make lofe easier for people. I think itd be a huge net benefit to society if people were freed up from ro

Id give them a pass. Non professional development is already hard as is If the problem we have with modern professionally developed software is that its become soulless and treats its users like resources to exploit rather than partners to

I dont mean to insult you but your last paragraph makes me not take you seriously at all. I could feel it in the rest of the post but the idea of an alien simulation just reaks of ayuhasca fueled quack science > A lot of core concepts ar

I see two issues with this. First is the lack of internal consistency. Games are an artform, even though most studios put out slop right now, and that means they need to say something. This will allow us to interact with environments at a s

Yeah but thats almost trivial, tactics and strategy decisions are the limiting factor

How is your currency real if it has to rely on a centralized currency like USD to be functional? It feels like a failure of decentralized currency if it has to be a parasite on a decentralized currency. Surely the success metric for decentr

I even set up an account. But the confirmation link in the email is broken It makes me think the projects arent organic but placeholders, because how are people posting projects without accounts? I would love if the account creation process

Thats open source self hosted software. If you dont trust the prebuilt binaries you can inspect the source code and build it from source yourself

exactly this. these people dont understand that their own speculatory practices are what makes this a terrible store of value. its unstable, they even have to rely on literal stable-coins but they still dont see the problem for the sake of

You are correct that review and validation should still be manual. But the actual "translation" from one format to another should be automated with llms

You cant automate the tactical assessment of "do we want to incur this tax?" Not easily anyway

Grifters are systems thinkers but in a limited short sighted way. Their answer to the prisoner dilemma is to betray their partner. The morons who support them dont see why this is not the optimal strategy

This is true, and hacks of these sort are a cottage industry The difference with smart TVs that might kill the value proposition is that the smart aspect doesnt actually impeed the user. You can just ignore it and hook up cable or your lapt

i dont think so. theres precendent to say that you can legally jailbreak phones you buy, so this seems similar the financial aspect might not be worth your time if theres not enough of an audience. one risk is that the added price might det

Yeah but thats not on demand support. They never say that you can demand a bugfix and they are obliged to provide it. Again, those bigfixes are provided as is. The author os talking about companies wanted to essentially raise tickets and ge

Thats a more general problem. As content gets cheaper to produce with AI, how do consumers discriminate between good content and slop. We already have this problem with youtube and twitter and reddit Its interesting that the AI companies wi

The site owner can allow such crawlers. There is the issue of bad actors pretending to be these types of crawlers but that could already happen to a site that want to allow google search crawlers but not gemini training data crawlers for ex
