It’s not complicated psyops. It’s basic marketing. ”Oh wow our product is so amazing we can’t keep up with demand you better buy before we run out”

The claim is never that it stops all crime. The claim is it stop some crime. That's like saying we don't need doctors because they can't cure everybody all the time.

You don't need to be extremely bright to realize that it's easier to burglar a home with no alarm system and cameras than one with. And if your neighbor doesn't have cameras, but you do, many home burglars are going to be sma

You can make the exact same argument with code written by humans. And if you were right we should see shitty bad code in open source projects like Linux, Postgres, etc. We don’t.

Would that not be true of them as well if an adversary wanted to target those bases? If US can’t shoot down incoming threats in the Middle East - what makes them able to do it in mainland US? It is the same defence systems.

Aren’t US bases so badly defended that they had to abandon them in Middle East at times because they couldn’t defend them?

I mean copilot has been a thing since 2021 so 5 years.

Yet most don’t. Because they don’t wanna spend time on it and they want a tested and proven software. Heck why even use Mac/linux/windows when you can just vibecode your own OS.

Don’t most of these have ”names”? At least I would assume they have names so people know what they are talking about.

And how people don’t get how probabilities work when run over repeated instances. Like it is only 0,1% risk that X happens everytime Y is done which sounds low but then it turns out Y is done Z number of times per day…

It’s both. Massive regulation is usually driven by good intentions, populism. Large corporations often don’t mind when it means it would prevent smaller companies from competing with them.

EU also have regulations where it applies directly without need for implementation in national laws.

As if everyone wear fast fashion from their local retail store for 20 years. Truth is many people are buying new clothes because they want new clothes and not because they break (just like many in HN buys new electronics even if their compu

Pretty much everything is made in China. Maybe you are just mad at the companies cutting out the European middle men making a large cut?

Seems like old information. Pretty sure most new Chinese cards are electric.

Not much if a couple of thousand homes in US switches off. There are way more sensitive targets than ”they could randomly hike the electricity usage with 0,0000000000000000001%”

To do what? Turn off the power in random individual houses?

Yup

Probably better people to explain it. First sentence on wiki ” Insulin (/ˈɪn.sjʊ.lɪn/ ⓘ;[5][6] from Latin insula 'island') is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells of the pancreatic islets encoded in humans by the ins

For sure.

by victorbjorklund 2mo ago
exactly my point. That it is dumb to dismiss all peptides as useless when at least some are necessary for survival for some people.

by victorbjorklund 2mo ago
Insulin is a peptide. Not sure if it is really a placebo when a diabetic needs insulin.
57.
by victorbjorklund 2mo ago
Clearly they have effects. Heck insulin is a peptide. And pretty sure it has a benefit for those with diabetes. Dismissing peptides outright is just as silly as thinking peptides are the solution to everything
