    There is 100% pirated content on Youtube - not too much from Hollywood and you won't find anime on it - but if you watch foreign language media, there is very often the Official ac…

    Now, I'm just having fun - I disagree with the premise of this article if it states the universe is young or some bs like that, that said I am leaning more to the universe being a …

    I love that you just dismissed Isaac Newton's greatest curiosity as "an addictive hobby" - that may in fact be the best understatement of the quest for the "philosopher's stone" th…

    Sure graphic designers and artists will do the main stuff but about all the background stuff or user interface stuff? Why would a major studio have an entire team for something an …

    I think AI will do best with already established content - Star Wars for example. An AI can make endless expansions to a Star Wars game, if the game was made so that it could do so…

    I can't speak to the actual research but after reading various declassified documents from the Soviet Union and Maoist China, I can say truthfully that they did not believe the wor…

    This is purpose of NATO - to prevent the lines on the map from changing. Ukraine may not be a member of NATO officially but it doesn't need to be - the Soviet era reason for Ukrain…

    Pfft, death isn't necessary to evolution in the sense your implying. Transmission of ideas and wealth - even societal restructuring doesn't require all the old people to first die.…

    This issue is fairly significant for me. I approach it with words using the idea that everyone has the foreknowledge of the Merriam Webster dictionary definition of the words they …

    Fail fast. You'll learn real quick from failure - often far more than from success, at least in my experience. It sucks, but creatively speaking, I think it's better to knock out a…

    Haha, what was happening to you the past couple weekends is just part of the whole process - now that you've experienced that, and beyond to releasing your side project, you won't …

    I believe that knowing and believe are two different things ;) Belief is far stronger - that's why people do things all the time they themselves at one point "knew" they couldn't d…

    Is there an example of this happening? I'm supposed to believe that we ask for money back from foreign countries that have stockpiled dollars as their reserve to finance domestic s…

    Defect isn't the right word to use for something that is part of a process that seems to play out in every instance we are aware of. If every supernova above a certain size creates…

    Perhaps we need a new word for universe - as it singular and all encompassing, this title seems silly. Of course, that would imply necessity of which there actually isn't, being th…

    This is what I thought right away upon hearing about Bard - plus stupid name. How will Google display 2 pages of ads using a perfect search engine? Literally, this is contrary to t…

    Brilliant! I actually thought 3 or 4 day work weeks might be the answer after working a job like that - far better work to life balance, just better overall. Sadly, I don't think a…

    I clearly use too many emojis if removing renders my text structure to that mess. The only thing I want to fix is the missing word doing from *as not DOING a fucking thing. Just si…

    I'm an incredibly capable individual but I just won't earn more than 20-30k a year, bc that's enough for my life. That means I will never buy a brand new car, house, or "financial …

    I have reservations about several aspects of this article but what sits least well is the substantial conclusions regarding AI compression loss. In short, I disagree. The "Hill" ex…
