    ARC-AGI is a beauty contest for pigs where the pig's owners compete to see who can apply the lipstick most convincingly.

    Bad idea, the AI hype train still has some gas, when it settles in that it's just another tool it's all going to fizzle out.

    His innovation has been to show that you don't need to make a product that works or makes sense. You just need to make products that get oceans of fools excited and get 30% of the …

    There's no grasping it, you can't grasp not existing. There will be no grasping when you're not around.

    Have they done a study on how being fake in the office all day and having to tolerate other people's narcissism affects one's mental health too?

    There no feasible escalation path for the US. Trump has alienated allies and much of his anti war supporters. A forever war quagmire in a country 3x larger than Iraq is unlikely, a…

    That's veto power, what other kind of control do they need?

    If Israel can have them, yes. Ideally, neither Israel nor Iran would have them.

    Not true, but I am skeptical that a one sided account would be adequate. Take care.

    Your strongest example should be good enough. So far you've got 1) flights between Venezuela and Iran 2) whitehouse.gov. Even if Trump's Whitehouse was a good source and you took i…

    So? Flying is a chore. What do you expect to find with FTL travel anyway? We pretty much know what's out there and it doesn't look all that interesting. It's a lot of rocks. Maybe …

    They're smartphones on wheels, the only people who love them are tech fetishists and bureaucrats forcing emissions mandates on everyone else.

    Carmack can be enthusiastic about AI because it's no threat to him, he's already set. He's not going to be laid off, and if he is, he can just do coding as a hobby for the rest of …

    Why wouldn't it be, you think the body was made to run all day? Most animals lay around all day with some bursts of activity. The exercise fad is just a peculiar neuroticism modern…
