> If AI frees up VFX artists so they can work on movies rather than commercials, I'm all for that. This isn’t how it works. Excel didn’t free up bookkeepers to become CFOs. Digital photography didn’t free up photo lab technicians to

I do wish I were born early enough to have been a software engineer in eighties and early nineties.

How would such verification work at planetary scale?

My favorite Reddit UX scam is that you tap on comments to collapse them along with their children, UNLESS they’re an ad that masks itself exactly like a comment in which case you tap it with the intent of collapsing it, but instead you inad

I’ve met a tremendous amount of very smart but miserable software engineers. Most of them miserable because of utter lack of love in their lives. In small part because they were snarky and egocentric, and in large part because they didn’t l

What are the disadvantages of having all the shocks go fully into the jaw?

It is and many immigrant families frequent their origin countries for this purpose (my own as well as many others I know), but it’s hard for someone born and raised in the United States to conceptualize what this looks like in a country lik

Not necessarily, it’s either that, or the robots are so good it’s unattainable by the imperfect human flesh.

What is the conceptual difference between Cloudflare and the companies in that list? We all love a David vs Goliath story, but haven’t we learned anything after buying the “Don’t Be Evil” bullshit?

> At least they’re not selling ads using your data Sounds great, until a new CEO steps in. Any company is exactly one (or more often zero) CEO away from doing whatever they want (within legal constraints) with their business, in order to

I really need to look into what building UI looks like with Rust + WASM nowadays. I've tried Dioxus in the past, but found its UI programming ergonomics to be atrocious.

Simple — Rust for everything except Typescript for browser/mobile and Python for scripting.

Is the concept here that a government, which may not be oppressive enough to spark a domestic uprising (and might even be broadly accepted by the majority of its own citizens due to common moral values or other merits), should be destabiliz

How would you "see" that, given that OpenAI isn't public?

Why would real estate do well in a world of double digit interest rates?

Why must humans be responsible in court for the biological neural networks they possess and operate but corporations should not be responsible for the software neural networks they possess and operate?

Are there any attempts to formalize the concept of “common sense” in the context of AI? What would that look like?

As a person who owned multiple Teslas I really don’t understand the “poor build quality” sentiment. What other car at the same price point has better build quality? And if one or two do, does that make the Teslas build quality “poor”? I had

I don’t know about Android but iOS does offer a picker. The user can grant permission for the app to access all photos, only selected photos, or none.

How would they fake it? Their own identity claims would need to be cryptographically signed.

Semi-related — why don’t we create a service in which people make employment “claims” and other people (their managers/customers) sign these claims with their own keys, so these claims can be cryptographically verified by a third party

Wouldn’t the rich afford a much better trained, larger, and computationally more intensive model?

It’s like autocomplete on steroids. When code autocomplete first came out everyone thought software engineering would become 10x more productive. Then it turned out writing code was only a small part of the complex endeavor of designing, bu
