Unfortunately i think many of those jobs can also be attributed to general economic health post low interest rates. Companies now need to leave pre-revenue and turn a profit, or if you’re an established company you need to cut costs/in

Especially given how the gov stats for unemployment rate and CPI have been changed over the years. Example, if you dig into who we technically consider unemployed in that number, you’ll laugh. Let’s say after 6 months of emails and ghost

I mean both sides are guilty. ‘08 saw us bail out banks and now the likes of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are GSE’s. The difference with Intel vs the banks, is Intel has assets that take decade plus to procure (foundries), and not something e

Yeah, i heard the P320 was originally a non-striker system that they modified to become a striker system to try and save research/development costs from creating a striker system from the ground up, which led to these wildly low tole

Check out this video, the FBI report got released a few weeks ago. This was a FOIA’d report from 2024 of a police officer who had the P320 holstered, doing normal movements (didnt drop the holstered firearm) Unique case in that the FBI got

A week or so ago the FBI report investigating an incident of unintentional discharge back in 2024 was released via FOIA. This particular case was a police officer who had the firearm in the holster, and by just normal movement it went off.

This is one of those things that is high effort, low impact. Similar to recycling in some cities/towns where it just gets dumped in a landfill. Instead we should be looking to nuclear power solutions for our energy needs, and not waste

Jokingly, it’s not surprising given many of their short-term ancestors were prison guards or criminals. Looks like the ruling gov still sees their citizens as such

Unfortunately many people don’t see cost, debt, and cars that way. Imagine you get your first car, it’s used and a bit run down but you’re paying $250/month on a modest loan. Nothing crazy but you needed a loan and a car that was modes

I disagree with genAI not having an education use case. I think a useful LLM for education would be one with heavy guardrails, which is “forced” to provide step-by-step back and forth tutoring instead of just giving out answers. Right now h

This assumes the same bioavailability with plants and micro/macro nutrient parity between plants and meat products which is not true. You would need exogenous supplementation for parity.

My theory is it’ll make children more anxious when the cookie-cutter nearly perfect schema is broken. We need rough edges, we need some level of inconsistency. If a child is grown up on machine, they’ll prefer machine for friends, dating, c

It brought a large number of countries to the negotiating table, and shows he’s willing to execute on threats of keeping tariffs high for an individual country. Now is the ripe time, 90 days, to make a deal with the US and offer the best te

Honest question, do you think this will lead to more work for “hands-on” programmers to fix errors, or this could just be the early stages of agenic coding becoming better and more akin to the best (or close to it) “hands-on” programmer? Or

I think this is a bit of an unfair comparison We could say better hair leads to better self expression, confidence, etc even if we say its purely an ego/vanity source (which i’d argue, isn’t necessarily the case but for sake of argumen

At some point you won’t be able to clean all the data. If you have a question of how to make dangerous thing X, and remove that data, the LLM may still know about chemistry. Then we’d have to remove all things that intersect dangerous thing
