The whole blog post reeks of extreme self-congratulation and youre right, a total scum move to expose the victim. Altogether very weak performance from Hudson Rock.

no, its something different. I found the Kahneman concept of the two systems to be really helpful in explaining - it feels like gaming pushes all cognition into the twitchy system 1 brain, and puts system 2 to sleep. Whereas reading arduous

I feel its the complete opposite. Playing video games for hours makes me generally incapable of deep thinking. Btw the same happens after hours-long coding sessions.

I agree, there's roughly three parties to blame, the large corps, the junk manufacturers and the idiots who buy cheap chinese junk en masse

No I'm with you, the multinational corporations are a major culprit in this.

Can we soon start talking about the largest elephant in the room - China and their global junk manufacturing industry - seeing how China commits approximately the same amount of CO2 into the atmosphere as the United States, India, the EU an

These kinds of articles are useless if they don't give any indication of the severity of the given effect on the whole (I don't know if they mention since it's paywalled) Is environmental change contributing 2%, 20% or 200% m

The surge of "junk pricing" has changed at least my US travel behaviour significantly. Used to heavily use Lyft, AirBnB, Uber Eats - now its hotel, car rental and grocery shops.

I know because you created an account to come and patronize people who are trying to help

The OP was looking to find a job, someone is trying to help. You are not, ergo please refrain from commenting further.

True, but only partially. We really don't know (or at least investors don't understand) what LLMs are really good for. Some of the use cases put out there now will wither away.

So moonshots it is then. I think we just demonstrated the typical investor though process here quite well!

Yes. What is your point?

All depends on your world view

Yeah, really the intent was not to advocate for death penalty - but rather highlight that there are tools to fight these things, and getting tangled in endless root cause analysis isn’t needed to utilize them.

Singapore, a nation with a populace of a bit north of 5 million and extremely strict drug laws, has a few thousand registered drug offenses per year. Finland, a nation with roughly similar population size but very lax penalties in compariso

Genuinely think cyber has a massive overengineering problem - I havent worked with Kaiser but am under the impression they run quite a sophisticated op, with a lot of advanced modeling done for vulns & cyber risk in general. Yet they g

I meant an absolute nightmare of a bill in general and for the IaaS providers. The US is winning the AI race because of their open ecosystem and capability to execute and these types of things hurt that bad.

What an absolute nightmare. I would also be surprised if iaas providers arent in vehement opposition, i will instantly migrate all cloud resources away from AWS if they start requiring KYC docs. Theres close to zero effort for doing so

Yes. It's paradoxical, but apparent if you engage in any kind of political discourse over here. Nerds have always had some of the worst political stances, not because they're dumb but because they bend in face of the slightest pre

> you need to regulate social media as a whole No, actually we dont. There is no divine mandate that requires us to do that, especially in a scenario where the geopolitical rival is using our credulity to their advantage.

Good. Tiktok is a threat to humanity’s survival, or at least an extremely potent gateway drug to it.
