There are hundreds of indie studios out there that find funding just fine. Even indie studios making eclectic puzzle games with weird stories. So this is probably not the reason.

Or you know, just tell the truth? Doing legal things with controlled substances is not forbidden, provided you maintain the required documentation and safety measures. The point of…

I personally don't have any issue with explosive precursors being controlled more carefully, no. If it means we have to spend some more time and money organizing safe storage, that…

The stories of LLMs "escaping the sandbox" were mostly a marketing stunt, trying to make people in government think the models are invincible hacking weapons that need lots of gove…

This is nonsense. "Monitored" is not the same as "unavailable", any chemistry lab worth its name has the means and procedures to acquire toluene in pretty much any quantity it want…

Is the intention that some type of long-term context would be seeded with "ideas" for the AI to serve up if it is ever asked for bank recommendations? It seems kinda ad-hoc and unt…

In which case it would be the engagement with minor details that does the productive work. Retyping is merely a gateway to (sometimes) trigger the engagement. The solution in TFA f…

If you insist on still not reading the article I can't help you further. The plant also has no batteries , so whether batteries are dirty or not is completely besides the point. It…

Meta adding an AI chat window in whatsapp and Microsoft adding copilot in every word document was not done with developers in mind, which is why they're missing a lot of power user…

Security minded programmers understand that. "People" as a whole have not even heard about mixing instructions and data, and certainly not the reasons why it is not a good idea. An…

My brother! This too is literally addressed in the article already! "In order to somehow absorb the fluctuations in wind availability, you need to have a significant storage of hyd…

Yes I know how the usual process works. The plant in the article is different, because it uses electrolysis to make hydrogen for the HB plant. You'd have known this if you'd read e…

Often economic crisis leads to less regime security, not more. Why would it be different in Russia?

No it doesn't. It electrolyses water and combines the resulting hydrogen with nitrogen from the air.

TFA literally states "Wind energy powers the electrolysers that supply hydrogen to a Haber Bosch plant." First paragraph.

It's just electrolysing water into hydrogen and then using the hydrogen in a Haber-Bosch reactor with nitrogen from the air to make ammonia. Electrolysis is easy enough to do on a …

Why would the HB plant be powered with fossil fuels? You can power that with wind power as well.

Not with this system, as it doesn't do KYC and thus cannot verify the agent or its identity. Also an agent is just a computer program. You can just turn it off. You never need to t…

There is no collateral. Borrowers are fully anonymous (just a wallet address) and there are no direct consequences for defaulting. The wallet is just marked as "defaulting" and so …

Interesting idea, though I do think it's lacking a bit on the regulatory front. Moneylending is one of the most tightly regulated industries on the planet and AFAIK "an agent did i…

People have other dreams , and have written about them in science fiction. But science fiction can just handwave away resource problems that exist in real life so that the plot can…

It's almost the inverse of a cruel reality? Just stick it all in low cost index funds and go to the beach. You'll do as good or better than 99% of actively invested funds. That's n…

Or military uniform, for that matter.

For real. I looked it up online to see if it's really as bad as Binface makes it out to be, but he's absolutely right. That hand dryer should be moved forthwith.

Time for Bindependence day!
