There is a certain beauty of a webpage about user interfaces failing to load under strains from traffic volume. I couldn’t read much, but it would appear the best interfaces are the ones that work!

Wouldn’t the same outcome be achieved much more simply by giving LLMs a two choices (colors, numbers, whatever), asking “pick one” and assessing the results in the same way?

To achieve its requests in the US, the article needs more “oomph”. Do some mildly valid math to predict death counts, economic impact, etc and then maybe the government could be interested.

A group of very smart people who are highly knowledgeable about some governments systems were fired overnight. I wonder if any one of them will be disgruntled and take some sort of action.

Are you trying to say it’s harder to inherit wealth than it is to be born low income, grind a construction job, and come home to the house your parents bought 40 years ago that homes your grandparents, parents, and your family?

Agree with 1 but take it further - common advice is just to clone many games. Try to build simple copies of simple games you know to understand how things are implemented and learn concepts with needed to reinvent the wheel.

He’s been very outspoken about why he doesn’t wear suits. And my god if you think he showed up and insulted Trump, think how anyone would feel if you showed up for a photo op and got tag team bullied by the US president and vp.

Trump and Vance’s behavior seems outrageous for leaders of the US. Zelensky certainly didn’t handle everything perfectly, but in comparison he looks like an actual president.

It lends credence to how severe the language needs to be. A car recall is very serious and implies people need to take action. A software update is meh, I’ll look at that later. Seemingly a Tesla software update is more aligned aligned with

What is going on with this article? No where listed is going to be cold at all in the 10 day forecasts, and even the links to other stories about weather are wildly incorrect. Is this some weird AI hallucination, a reported in the UK having

Linkedin is horrible, but rarely do I see a post like this that doesn’t get a smackdown. LinkedIn surely doesn’t do public smackdowns, so I’ll ask - what kind of content were you sharing? Were you doing anything you may consider not-super-a

Having never read that - it reads incredibly similar to how Trump talks but with better sentence structure. It all sounds believable, but it’s really useless platitudes.

Elon did good things. And then it went to his head. Look at almost every tech billionaire today and how many good things they (aren’t) doing. And the argument is moot anyway - he wasted tens of billions on Twitter. If he was doing good thin
