Elon decided he wanted to have Grok respond positively to allegations of “white genicode” in South Africa so he had his xAI engineers rewrite the system prompts to support the idea that “white genocide” exists. It then started talking about

If it were well defined, there wouldn't be any debate on it. And no one is interested in your designated definition. The only valid definition is: "terrorism is anything I don't like" This is why Republicans called it a

Economics isn’t just “money”. Economists study things like stripper names to abortion effects on crime. Go ahead and read the book Freakonomics.

Doesn’t matter. A billionaire’s existence doesn’t take away from the poor, since wealth isn’t zero-sum. Focus on the poor, not the rich.

It literally does. Billionaires don't exist without everyone else also becoming wealthier. It's why China was able to eliminate extreme poverty while creating hundreds of billionaires. You may think this inequality is unfair, but

Yah the Industrial Revolution wasn't a direct cause of any war. There are zero wars that are a result of economic efficiency. And, no, colonialism isn't economic efficiency. Economic efficiency is a very specific thing. It doesn&#

Should be obvious that whatever AI does, people are capable and resilient enough to naturally respond to it for everyone's benefit. It's just what people do. They don't sit around doing nothing because AI took their job- they

LLMs are experts at Django, as there's 20 years of training data on it as well as just being written in the world's most popular language. LLMs can pump out full featured Django sites like anything. I don't know why anyone wo

I have a question on non-profits in general. What exactly is the advantage of being incorporated as a non-profit, when all you have to do to not be taxed as a for-profit corporation is spend all your money each year and not show any profit?

No one wants to buy your product. Your marketing-to-revenue ratio should tell you that. If you're not making more money than you put into ads, then your product sucks. Time to drop it and get back to full employment.

Very few system fonts are any good. Would you use Arial instead of Helvetica Neue? I certainly wouldn't. Put two posters side-by-side and you'd notice the Helvetica one as looking more professional, even without any design backgro

Did not know HoloLens had 23megapixel displays to show high resolution text for coding. It must have been really useful back then with such a high resolution display that you could use for coding all day. People really need to understand th
