prison time please

I mean, there's a time in history when the population successfully brought out the guillotines and made real change against centralized power.

Or more likely, put regulations in place so the hardware can only run allowed models/allows surveillance of what's run. They're already doing stuff like this for 3D printers.

Exactly same. I've listened to basically every episode since 2008, and 95% of the time while falling asleep, one earbud in. As recently as literally last night. Not really paying a…

Same as me and very close to same age. Started with TWiT podcasts plus Buzz Out Loud with Molly Wood and Tom Merrit. On my iPod nano second gen. Got exposed to John through TWiT an…

And stops solitary confinement as a routine thing in prisons, which is literal torture. And stops death penalty. And provides basic healthcare instead of letting millions die.

It's horrible that there are 14 million children now in graves because of Elon Musk. He's literally worse than Hitler. I also don't understand how he spends all his time. SpaceX an…

Rent-seeking can be explained in a few different ways, but one of them is "extracting value without creating much new value" which is exactly what a lot of landlords do. Buy a hous…

I'd settle for corporate jail time. No more profiting off illegal activity when the fine is less than profit. Nope, corporate jail. All operations have to stop for your sentence. N…

They're saying you should be compensated and make income for the time it took you to form the business and hire employees. You shouldn't (in their theory) then continue to earn inc…

What if you dump toxic waste into a river to make money, but volunteer 30-40 hours a week? Does it make the dumping less unethical? The point isn't about doing labor, it's about no…

I think they could have worded it better. I think they were saying that profiting from the labor of others is unethical. Using robots isn't unethical because you're not profiting f…

Any ballparks of what the hourly rate is you're aiming for? Sometimes with these international remote jobs it's hard to tell if it's a livable wage in the US.

My thought on this is that it's basically not legal to protect your home/family with force because of this. It's impossible to know if someone breaking in is a cop or not, and at 3…

This exactly. You need to mow and leaf blow and weed and edge lawns. You need to get transported in a car from location to location. You need hands to operate all these tools. And …

probably less by the time it gets into the evidence locker

> once the investigators start asking you about it you have to lie to them You literally don't, that's what the fifth amendment is for there's a large lack of creativity in these c…

How much did people on the board benefit from OpenAI going for-profit? Either directly by owning shares of the new for-profit, or knowing they eventually would, or by business conn…

A non-profit should act in its own individual best interest. If I had a non-profit for sheltering animals and one contractor told me it would cost a million dollars to build a new …

> he knew that his actions were going to be investigated I disagree - my take when I first read this was that this was likely a pervasive thing that senior people all did, and they…

worse than that is the $60 million sale price, which was comically and absurdly low. Elon himself said he was willing to buy it for significantly more than that and the fact that i…

I think it's commentary on capitalism, not on a company acting out of the ordinary.

However, busses do tremendously greater wear and damage to roads than cars, and if everyone used busses exclusively the cost of road maintenance and repair would likely go up. I'd …

GoatseAI - the type of open that OpenAI should have been from the start

let's not forget that calling copyright infringement theft is hyperbole, and the claim that AI is even infringing is also dubious at best, and that the concept of intellectual prop…
