It points out a problem but ignores the obvious solution. We want the nominal value of stocks, houses, and essentially everything to continually increase. The escape hatch is that these can increase in value slower than inflation and thus

Sam Altman said they were. Your article has 5 billion in inference cost vs 4.5 billion in revenue. That's within the range of becoming profitable.

I don't think that's accurate. They're within the range of profitability on inference today and that's before theyve started selling ads.

Everyone could raise and build a search engine or social network. Many did and none of them dethroned Google or Facebook.

They're both all in on being a starting point to the Internet. Painting with a broad brush that was Facebook or Google Search. Now it's Facebook, Google Search, and ChatGPT. There is absolutely a moat. OpenAI is going to have a

Thanks unfortunately neither of those are the case. Things are quite bad (haven't spoken with the kid since Christmas) and probably have not yet hit the nadir.

I'd hit up a solo therapist. I went through a hard time with my wife and turns out she just sucks. Be warned that she sucked a lot worse in the divorce and states differ wildly in how biased they are against fathers if you have kids.

I think the HN crowd and the public at large have different ideas of usability. The "I want to save the file on my computer that I own" resonates with us. But there are a lot of advantages to a mobile like experience. There&#x27

This is something I've noticed with EMTs & Ambulances. They don't actually move all that fast and I'm sure they have their reasons. But it's always seemed like driving to the hospital would be better and I wonder h

I strongly disagree. The father passed on the same trauma he experienced to his own child. It makes it worse because he knows exactly how painful it is but did it anyways. I'm watching my ex do the same thing to our kid. I understan

This is and has been happening everywhere in the US except for the expensive coastal metros and maybe Chicago. What you're asking for comprises the vast majority of house that's been built in the last 10 years in my city. Dozens

I've watched those ladders disappear at least twice and come back over my life (Dotcom bubble and the Global Financial Crisis). These things are cyclical and for somethings we are at a low point. But in the long run there will always

IMHO the fundamental problem is that the world wanted dollars so they gave the US gold or stuff for those dollars. If that flow ever reverses then there's problems. Bretton woods solved the gold issue. The plaza accords solved it whe

Some evaporates. It will eventually come down again as rain somewhere else but as far as the original city is concerned the water is used.

by treis 11mo ago
People use very little water. Most of what is drawn is returned back to the system. By that I mean if you use 20 gallons for a shower 19 is going into the drain to be reused. The only real usage of water is evaporation and that's stu

The tradeoff with that language simplicity is that there's a whole lot of gotchas that come with Go. It makes things look simpler than they actually are.

by treis 11mo ago
It's still pretty mid and still missing basic things like sets. But mid is not all that bad and Go has a compelling developer experience that's hard to beat. They just made some unfortunate choices at the beginning that will alwa

This is what I mean by pervasive negativity. Well all those things got better but what about this other thing? And this thing is nonsense too. Boomers aren't immortal. Eventually they will die and whatever housing constraint there i

I don't know what you're talking about. All of the things you mentioned have significantly improved over my life. I can bike around my city without it being a suicide mission, pre-Obamacare health care was way worse, crime and a

It's hard to put thoughts into the right words but the world she wants exists. They're not writing for substack or flying around to conferences. They're out there living their lives without being so unrelentingly negative.

There's a clear 3rd option where the poor are self destructive shit heads. IMHO this is one of those areas where lots of things can be true. If you're sick or catch bad breaks then yep poverty is a grinding cycle. If you're

Eh this doesn't mean much. The quality of drivers is pretty bimodal. You have the group that's really bad and does things like drive drunk, weave in and out of traffic, do their makeup and so on. The other group generally pays at

It's interesting that we're on the cusp of a major change in our world and no one is really talking about it. Self driving cars will have a profound impact on society. Everything from real estate to logistics will be impacted.

I agree that a slight twist on android doesn't make sense. A phone with a in integrated LLM with apps that are essentially prompts to the LLM might be different enough to gain market share.
