> What is there for them to ‘get off’ from?

Not to sound crass, but each other... and I mean that in every sense of the word, they felt they were the smartest people on Earth and spouting the EA narrative of solving the World's problems while simultaneously using their Ivy League connections and paying off who they had to keep paying themselves and living in some hedonistic debauchery in he Bahamas as they lived in some poly-amorous situation.

> They are losing their money. Is investing in a barely veiled scam a crime?

Their is about a billion of what were likely customer deposits missing, and no one knows who took it; the Bahama government stepped in and took what was left after the fact and started the bankruptcy. As for investing in a scam, well, they were funneling customer funds into Alameda so that alone is a breach of basic fiduciary trust in finance, so yes... it is a crime.

The question is what will come from this, because the argument is that regulation is required when FTX and Alameda are both regulated and licensed proving the reality of a multi-tiered legal system that includes access to VC money, which as entrepreneurs we've been told is a meritocracy based allocation that is accessible to anyone with 'a better mouse trap' when it's clear that it isn't and never has been.

I'm not sure we can get clear collusion charges for these VCs as of yet, but it begs the question of how blatant these connections and funding gets made made for the 'right' candidate with almost no scrutiny for those with political connections which in turn could curry favor at a later time.
> I've had raids employ artillery and air drops against my walled compounds.

Not only that, but the only defense against artillery is to build in a mountain. There isn't otherwise a defense against artillery except to go kill the artillery before it starts pounding you. And good luck doing that when you're outnumbered ten to one...
"nobody needs to conspire when interests align"
hard agree with everything you've said here.

At my current company it's actually a fight as it's not necessarily the architects themselves that want to shit out diagrams all day.

It's a part of the job, for sure, I'm just pointing out it's not always the architect.

but your points about hands-on, respect simple, and having a wide base of experience is 100% spot-on imo. I do agree with your point about the diagrams, just wanted to point out that's sometimes due to pressures rather than wants.
1. The topic was US defense of TW. How exactly would it be defended by the US without troops?
2. Ukraine is defended by the Ukr army - with copious amounts of ammo and weaponry yes from NATO but no troops. At the same time the US never said they would send the army into conflict to defend it; when it comes to TW, despite the strategic ambiguity or whatever it's called, the general belief is there would be US boots on the ground.
3. The US would send its soldiers if there was something valuable obviously - be it fabs or oil or whatever, but not just to fight China for a random island in the Pacific. Otherwise they would have done it already on the countless atolls that are being fortified.
4. Yes, pretty much that. Just that it would not be obvious, but rather a long war of words would precede it...
Again, nothing wrong with it. As long as no lives are lost I guess it is for the better.
iPhone 13 Display Bundle: $269.95 ($236.35 after credit). Letting Apple stores handle it is ~300, so not really worth doing it yourself. Yeah I guess they did that on purpose.
Remember that in the US you can sue anybody for anything at any time. Doesn't mean you'll get anywhere in the courts.
Certainly not. You are just underpaid and speak from your experience.

As a UX designer, I'm curious as to how Framers animations (and interactive prototyping in general) compare to Axures. I've always loved using Axure for my animations, and it does a great job with giving non-code people a way to lay out conditions, set variables, etc.
Somewhat fair.

Though I think there's a difference between having 'the internet' stored in a preindexed form against which you can perform direct exhaustive lookups, and having instead a set of weights that were produced by having once been exposed to a large amount of the data on the internet.

But you're right to point out that the difference between them is not actually that great, and both of them are really a form of 'recall'.
Correct. Imagine, this guy is wasting hundreds of hours on this “hobby” reading r/superstonk, but still hasn’t even heard of the DTCC which every single trade of his is going through. Information diets really matter.
> With UBI the risk decreases and people will make such moves.

> What UBI makes it harder is underemployment and labor exploitation - people won't work in terrible jobs unless they need to and UBI removes that need.

This is my argument for it as well. There should be universal programs available to help with social mobility, help for those that want to make a change in their lives, in any direction.

There is no need to tie someone down working full time just to pay for the basics, when they could be obtaining an education.

Career changes should be easier to do as well, for example someone who would want to go from IT to Construction or another trade. It might pay well eventually, but the ramp up can take a while and there may not be another breadwinner in the house. There should be assistance for those who want to do something new and contribute to society in the way that works best for them, without burdening their family.
The term fiasco is misleading. The Fyre Fesitval was a fiasco because people were almost killed.

The Boring company has dug tunnels more slowly than hoped.
Create me a flutter app that has a list of todo items. Each item has a timer. The list shows one item at the top and when it's timer finishes the next one in the list moves to the top.

That prompt, or something like it, generated Futter code along with the instructions of how to modify a default flutter app for the code to work.

I haven't ran the code yet, but all the other code samples I asked for worked.

Asking for a ruby Student, Teacher application where the student takes multiple courses and the teacher can assign a grade to each course.

After you get that code, you can clarify in your next question.

I want each course to have progress steps.

More generated ruby code..

Can you add a grade for each progress step, and can the teacher have the ability to unlock the next progress steps.

Generates more code.

Then.

Generate me a react front end for this.

Generates React code.

I didn't install/run the code, but it looked accurate and had comments explaining what the lines of code did.

----

GitHub code works, ChatGPT code works, and does exactly what you want, and you can modify it just by asking.

"Change the progress array to be an object that has a grade, started date, finished date and parent acknowledgement."

That actually works as an example after the bot generated the initial app.

We're in for a world of changes.
> seemingly non-sensical decisions like not letting your colonists have chairs

Chairs for workers?? Everyone who’s familiar with Russia’s history knows that automatic cannons should go first (and they did a rather good job in my case). It is non-sensical to let workers have chairs unless they refuse to work without them. Or until all your neighbors are reduced to the status of Canada and Mexico.
I think age-ism isn’t that relevant when you’re under 40. There will be limited positions for someone who wants staff+ compensation though.
As someone who loses his keys a lot, air tags are a lifesaver.

Also they're actually designed to last a long time being simple devices, with water proofing and battery replacability. I foresee using them until they break at this rate, which will probably be many, many years.

Knifes break, rust, dent and lose their sharpness. Many are about the equivalent of ewaste, much like furniture itself.
> Because removing the page-up/down functionality requires extra work.

100% this

Can someone PLEASE explain to me why front-end devs go out of their way to DISABLE features?

Scrolling works fine. Having multiple ways to scroll is user-friendly and adds accessibility. Someone please explain to me why a dev is going to go "You know, I don't use Page Down/Page Up to scroll, so I'm going to spend time hooking into the Page Down/Page Up key presses so they can be thrown out and disable scrolling through those keys".

EDIT: Page Up/Down work fine for me on that page btw. Using Chrome on a MacBook Pro.
Great idea.

The problem might be that only people pissed of at a product might be motivated enough to add a review and you end up with a skewed view.

Anyway, added a review. Best of luck!
Hmm, that is a good counter. Off the top of my head, I can't. It does not automatically invalidate the argument, but it does significantly weaken it. Maybe there is something here I am missing.
Someone is trying to make money fast. AirTags are a tool, the ones being sued are the ones who were using them to break the law.

> you might enjoy the "save and load when you lose a fight" play-style.

I've done that. But it gets repetitive when every fight has three or four or ten red pawns for every one of mine.
Exact, 1500 is not a such big amount as people thinks. If we use correctly the term animals, expanding it to flies, worms and zebra fishes instead to use it incorrectly as a synonym for "birds and mammals", the real number should be much higher.

To kill 1500 vinegar flies in a week for research is not uncommon or a strange thing.

We need to remind that the faster you do research, the more people will be saved by research. The problem here is not the amount of lab animals killed.
I heard a story about an Intel fab in Arizona that would always produce bad silicon at a certain time a day. After some investigations it was determined that a train passed by at that time every day causing enough seismic activity to disrupt the manufacturing process.

Heterosexuality being prevalent within the population (note that I purposefully avoid idioms like "X is the norm" as ambiguous, especially in this context) is merely the flip side of LGBTQIA+ folks being a minority. Now, a minority can have a robust subculture - and one can certainly make that claim about LGBTQ identity today - but that doesn't somehow make it into not-a-minority.

Social and cultural norms are beside the point here; in fact, the most traditional societies are those that tend to feature the most salient spaces for same-sex quasi-romantic affection and emotionality, with such things as compadrazgo and sworn brotherhood/sisterhood. So it's just not clear how "heteronormativity" is supposed to be an internally coherent concept.

A software update can be classified as a recall even if the user has no idea it happened.
I agree. I showed ChatGPT for a teacher, and they were mildly interested but pointed out some flaws in the lesson plans it created for their subject. Then again AI generated limerick answers to the questions in the AI generated lesson plan were a hit.

They said maybe they could try it out too but lost most of the interest when I mentioned a user account would be needed. While I am, as you said, still bemused with the speed of this change hitting us.
This is more sophisticated than my first line of code, but maybe reflects some universal underlying truth about how all of humanity is connected.

We kids finally got parents to buy a computer. They brought home a TI 99/4A, plugged it into the TV, kids all gathered around, got to the TI Basic prompt, everyone's full attention, but we didn't know what to do.

Someone typed something, got an error message, and a few more things.

One of us asked whether what we type "goes into the memory of the computer", wide-eyed fascinated.

Then we proceeded to type juvenile naughty things into this memory of the computer, which is the greatest thing.
I think he'd be better off in jail, it would at least make him STFU
I would much rather use an implant that has had the absolute most amount of research and development work done on it as possible, which means quick iterations and hard deadlines to move forward.

You can make the claim that he isn't doing it for humanitarian reasons, even though there's no foundation to make that claim unless you're Elon himself. However with the anticipated price point (a few thousand dollars) for a Neuralink surgery and implant compared to the cost of R&D over the next decade or more makes it pretty clear that Elon isn't doing this to make his next fortune. He's stated his reasons for Neuralink a million times over and if you don't choose to believe him then all I can do is disregard your comment alongside all the others that claim to psychically know for certain his intentions when you've literally never met, worked with, or spoken to the guy before.
There are some strategies one can use, e.g. work for one company on the East coast and one on the West, then being an early starter at the first one and late starter at the second one. Perhaps have some known medical issue that occasionally requires skipping some meetings if there is a conflict. I am honestly monitoring him and I hope he'll share his stories, tips and close calls for some added amusement. He's definitely using two computers to keep any monitoring system at bay.
Aqueous reprocessing of nuclear fuel is a technology that's been mastered by many nations. Fabricating quality MOX that be fed back into reactors is something that France and Russia have succeeded at and the US and UK have failed at.

That said, there might be some other way to make MOX, or some other fuel formulation based on molten salts, metal fuel, nitrides, carbides, etc.

As for economics a big problem is that the LWR works at low temperatures and requires a huge steam turbine and huge heat exchangers. This is apart from the problem that large LWR construction projects frequently go over schedule and budget by a large margin. There is some hope that a smaller reactor like China's ACP-100 can find some simplification at small scale that makes up for the diseconomies of small scale and avoids the project management problems but it will take some kind of water-free reactor that operates at higher temperatures for nuclear to be competitive with natural gas.
It’s common to say buying ad space. You have probably regularly heard an advertiser “buying a full page”. No one’s ever “bought” the whole thing, so the confusing language of saying “buy” in this context never came up before.

I'm not a car guy so am pretty oblivious to the trends, but I actually stopped and took a photo of an Audi with this a couple of months ago, because it looked fantastic IRL. Not sure how much it comes across in the photo https://i.imgur.com/9sQQwT2.jpg , it looked more matte in the flesh.

This seems very cool.

But, at the risk of seeming extra dumb: is there a way to contribute to this project for people who don't know how to work with SQL?
How is that anti-competitive?

In what cases to we continue to use a slow, antiquated process to do a task when an automated technology comes out that can do it faster and/or better?

Sure, I could pay a contractor to go through my files to find and replace every instance of a text string with another text string. Or I could use sed. It's not anti-competitive for sed to exist.
Isn't there an implicit trust on DNS already for domain validated certificates?
No. Awfully thin as in malnourished.
*Developing* a brain machine interface technology requires many animals because the key unknowns have to do with acquiring, processing, and manipulating brain signals (so no in vitro model). Once the technology is working, and a particular disease/disorder/disability has been identified, the final number of animals required for the FDA to give safety approval for human tests is probably similar to any other medical device.

> How does this justify sloppy stuff like wrong vertebra, injecting random gels

It doesn't, though my suspicion from reading the article is that these things are all reporting one side. Sealing a craniotomy (hole in the skull) is complicated, and while it is well known that vetbond on the cortical surface is a no-no, it's actually quite acceptable on the skull surface, my guess is that they had thought that the hole was sealed, but there was a crack that the vetbond went through. If you're developing a new way of making 100s of holes in the skull, I don't think it's surprising that it might not work how you model it in vitro. This is precisely why we do in vivo development in animal models. The wrong vertebra seems likely to be driven by Elon actively trying to hire engineers who don't know anything about neuroscience and then thinking he can train them fast. (I found that idea - which was in last years Neuralink presentation) incredibly annoying - typical Silicon Valley hubris.
This somehow sounds like specialized CPUs to me.
I love the variable names. I definitely had the same naming conventions as a kid :)

Funny story. Sophomore year at college, I worked at a dev shop, and I was the first person to set up version control there (CVS... it was like year 2000.) The next day I reviewed changes that were merged and variables $tit and $ass were all over the place.

I assumed the guy who checked it in was just immature and met w him to "professionalize" him. But turns out these variables referred to Titles and Assignments (it was staffing software). LOL!

Just curious, I get low gravity, extreme temperature and flying debris, what are the physical challenges of building infrastructure on the moon? For example, I assume we are probably use local material to build stuff. What can we get from the moon or do we need to ship the whole thing there?
3300 years ago the oldest pyramids were thousands of years old. Or do you mean in general and not tied to the article?
Thank you! I will definitely add these to a list of new features and get them shipped. Btw, I just switched the API, so .com checking should be available again.

Unlike the old API, this one will mark something as "available" whether it's actually not-taken, or if it costs $9,000 to buy. Not ideal, as I think a lot of us would prefer actually cheap domains, but it's a midway solution to make it work right away.
Was the comp comparable to FAANG and other public companies in the end or did you take a paycut?
It really is a stupendously large sum of money. We're all used to hearing these crazy numbers thrown around but to think what you can do with that much money [$1B]. Heck, you could pay a million people a thousand bucks each. To what depths will a random person sink for that much money? And 100,000 people are still a huge army at your disposal for $10k. And 1000 select individuals for a cool million each. (Check out how much soviets used to pay american spies (a: pittance) to get a sense of what can be asked of the willing recipient.)
> For instance more than twice the number of people get murdered by knives in the US than rifles (rather broad category)

That's just cherry picking data. You're comparing the broadest possible category "knives" with a subset of another category -- rifles are a subset of knives.

You might note that certain categories of knives are regulated, and actually illegal in many states. Not all knives are the same. This is obvious. But your point ignores it.
The beneficial purposes are improving prosthetics.

And the only thing that makes those goals attainable and products better is experimentation.

If they are needlessly experimenting and making no progress, that’d be tragic, and comparable to existing tragedies that happen in labs all over the world.

The timing, intended audience, and flavor of the criticism suggests this is much less about any ethical breaches and much more about reigning in someone who is perceived to be breaking out of bureaucratic control.
I'm amazed that we got as far as we have. It takes a well composed assembly of hundreds of machines, many costing USD 300,000,000 to operate as a "Fab".

I have owned nearly every generation of Apple TV. Other than the original model, I wouldn't describe any of them as slow as molasses. On the contrary, they are consistently the fastest streaming devices I've owned, and I'm comparing to things like Roku (built-in to a TCL), FireTV, and Android TV across a number of devices (Shield Pro, Hisense U6G, Zidoo Z9X). (Technically the Zidoo uses Android, not Android TV.)

I currently own all three generations of the Apple TV 4K. All of them are snappy devices.

Now that said, I use them for streaming video only, both a variety of services as well as use Infuse for streaming from my NAS.

That's a bold claim. So far, I haven't seen much sign of anything even remotely like "positive impact".
Multiple lights that can all be turned off - except for the so called "daytime driving light", but that's also a double edged sword: many drivers seem to think that if they have these they can get away with leaving the "real" headlights off for longer, but forget that there is no daytime light at the rear of the car. So yeah, a murky-matte-gray car in murky gray weather at twilight is the worst situation for visibility I can think of too...
