    Vert true, there's still a lot of small communities forming. Even if you go on like Reddit if you post certain things in certain subs you'll get invited to private subs talking abo…

    Anyone who has run a donation based service will tell you whatever % of users you think contributes back divide that by 1,000 or 10,000 to get the actual number.

    Very true, the whole point of logic and programming is that language is itself subjective and vague. A deterministic program given the same inputs will always give the same outputs…

    The elephant in the room here is how you ethically get people to onboard without an existing community / fomo / money. The trick is getting the content creators there, but most of …

    It doesn't have to though, we could train AIs that push back or even coordinate with a human therapist similar to how self checkout lines still have an attendant.

    AI reminds me of early COVID in that it's difficult at times to tell how much it will completely change everything and therefore how concerned to be. And also in the way that it's …

    Was there a time or place in where money flowed to musicians, journalists, and artists instead of their managers?

    I'd agree if you're talking about alternating ramen and cereal, but the diet prescribed here seems pretty reasonable. Good even, in comparison to a lot of people. Either way you ca…

    It would certainly could serve as a fun challenge for experienced chess players. But I'm let down because my chess partner is a 9 year old who is still learning basic strategies.

    At some point Scribblenauts 3D is going to be one hell of a game.

    One of my favorite responses to criticism was Dan Abramov telling people if Redux doesn't work for them, don't use it! Keep what works for you, leave what doesn't.

    Yeah, exactly, it isn't reasoning or creating in the way that humans reason, it's calculating that statistically speaking, when a human says what you said here's roughly what often…

    Kinda seems like you're arguing just to argue.

    Great photos, especially being colored by hand. I'd love to see these in a museum with background information about the subjects and stories like the raspberry fungus.

    Appreciate the info! In another thread I saw a recommendation for dual 3090s if you're not doing anything gaming related, good to have some confirmation there.

    It's a silly but spooky thought that this or similar interactions may have been the butterfly effect that drove at least one of them to take their company in a drastically differen…

    This is a pretty privileged perspective. There's also quite a difference between the ethics of healthcare and legal services. Most of the time if you need a legal answer from a law…

    Who would have thought edgy progressive humor and international business interests don't mix.

    That's true of virtually any detection tool, no? "All I have to do is modify my virus until the anti-virus doesn't detect it."

    That's true, you could even purposely inject fingerprinting into its writing style and it could still accomplish the goal of conveying information to people.
