Im a bit clueless on this subject but I've been wondering why isn't this heat used productively to, say, generate electricity. Why aren't AI datacenters for example use the heat to provide the municipality with hot water for

It's a laudable goal to match human intelligence but we can't ignore the cost for too long. If humans can create the same reasoning for cheaper why would we chug along on this path? And this may be the case when the AI hype bubble

Should be free first of all, HN is free after all and with it's old tech it is still working well and is also friction free. I've seen plenty of show HN:HN and most don't have traction because the original is just too good. I

Their UX, their naming conventions from products to frameworks and services, pulled plugged on products, user hostility and so on are all pointing out the root of the problem is elsewhere. I think Microsoft is no longer reformable. It is a

Yes, they were not fascist as an ideology. But I was pointing out the country was a democracy in name only which means whatever one calls themselves or claims to be are not necesarily rooted in reality.

RIP internet. It will soon make no sense to share something with the world unless you're in for profit. But who's gonna pay for it?

I'm sure of that but it seems that LISPs being too flexible hurt their adoption rate somewhat and the mainstream preferred to have more guardrails on their programming languages. Ultimately developers are the ones who decide what they

I feel so bad for the next generation who will never have watched man made movies, they will not be able to tell whether something is junk or not because there will be no baseline.
