This simping is such a bad look. Why go to bat for a man who wouldn't piss on you to put out a fire? Act like a man jesus christ

That's not hilarious or sad. It's valid to oppose your enemies and support your allies. It takes a certain kind of educated liberal bubble to think that is "hilarious"

Couldn't disagree more. It's a social experience, it's so unfun and antisocial to have some go to a large gathering of humans and get annoyed when their presence is detectable. Go listen to the song by yourself in a room

This is so antisocial. Just go listen to it by yourself in your room if human presence is annoying

Who got access to credit and who was left to go bankrupt and have their lives destroyed? seriously crazy that you can't understand that
97.
by snapcaster 8mo ago
That "special" people got access to credit while normal people have their lives destroyed duh

Yeah putting myself in the shoes of someone with this disease or a loved one with this disease I would be so incredibly angry that we weren't allowed to try something when the alternative is certain death

Well, history has those uniquely medieval (or early modern) situations where kingdoms adopt fiat currencies and don't fail. I dunno how much academics discuss those

by snapcaster 8mo ago
Yeah, so funny how they say "fiat" but never say "shiny metals"

Do you use cursor personally? the product is so good, i don't know why people aren't looking at the "companies will complain and pony up $20k a seat" isn't seen as a possibility here

They're implying that the US is exceptional due to its access to cheap credit, not due to some inherent superiority. Your comment listing off successful american companies seems to agree with him if anything. Maybe you misread the comm

This is such a weird question, just go outside and interact with humans and the evidence is everywhere

You're likely going to stay seething for a while (even if bubble pops). the product market fit of these tools is so strong that companies paying tens of thousands per employee for them isn't really that big of a deal
106.
by snapcaster 10mo ago
a perfect example in this context would be when a company is successful and it's attributed to culture not product market fit, funding or luck

I'm not saying relevance of culture, human bio-diversity, etc. are zeroes in terms of impact. I just get frustrated because they seem to be the only things talked about at the expense of any discussion about actual material conditions

I mean yeah avoiding materialism in political debates is great for people dominating the material realm. I don't think that's an accident

I don't disagree with you on the conclusion, but man I just wish people stopped believing in fairy tales about countries like this. America does it too. Why are people so allergic to materialism? I'm not saying culture is irreleva

Funny and thought provoking, you've now got me reflecting on if i'll ever see anything stupider than my current top 5 Personally as an american i'm quite optimistic on peak stupid being ahead of us :)

Totally agree, but my point is that you shouldn't be modeling this by looking at various devices and calculating worry thresholds Just stop leaking willingly leaking bits for little or no upside instead it's much simpler

This feels very dismissive. The comment you responded is about the very real killing of a lot of people and your response is "at least we can talk about it?" Being free to talk about the horrible things happening doesn't appe

Yet china's economy where IP isn't respected seems to contradict your point. Why doesn't that counterexample make you change your mind on this?

Compared to the current hegemony? you must have never felt yourself on the other end of "spreading freedom and democracy"

I think this is the wrong mental model (attempt to articulate threats from a specific information leakage). The problem I have with this approach is that it ignores "sensor fusion" by treating each leak as independent and defining

I see a difference between hiding your identity and not loudly shouting about it in public. Personally, I quite enjoy recreational drugs and my close friends know that but my coworkers don't and that's fine. Why is sex so much dif

Why would the recommendations be "good"? I assume you mean "good" here to mean good for you or in your interests. That isn't how ads are sold, they're sold to the highest bidder

One of the easiest methods is to find a different data source with overlap and use that to map real people to anonymized lists. Big tech companies find this super easy to do because of all the internal data they already have on everyone

This comment chain gave me a fun idea to lightly troll people. Just comment "Caution: <file format or file type>" on a thread with no further explanation and gaslight people into thinking there is some problem

What makes you think that? it would need some prompt engineering if so since ChatGPT won't write like that (bad capitalization, lazy quoting) unless you ask it to
