I think the point is that it isn’t really a legitimate criticism of the device. Not having a fingerprint sensor was not a design choice by the keyboard maker. It is a constraint of…

Before this release, there were providers undercutting deepseek on the preview version. I suspect that once the hype dies down, or the field gets more competitive we will see the s…

I think there's also the consideration that the Laffer curve is very Ceteris Paribus. In reality higher taxes implies higher spending, and different countries spend differently. It…

You’re describing the Laffer curve. Much of Reagan’s trickle down stuff was based on the idea that we were on the wrong side of the peak.

It would be pretty wild if cloudflare or digital ocean opened themselves up to a massive lawsuit by doing this. Do you have any evidence that cloud providers that don’t train their…

Do you think they use magic to stream live video with today’s implementation? It already works. We stream HD video out of our homes all day every day, and that includes video from …

Not at all. If they can get the data to their server to store it, they could just as easily not do that and instead serve it from your local device by proxy through their server. I…

I don’t know if people hate public surveillance. Most people handle it fine when it’s traffic cameras, security cameras in malls and stores, etc. The issue is a massive unaccountab…

My grandfather worked as the lead geologist on Project Rulison. That was the fracking shot in western CO. Apparently the shot was quite successful as a natural gas fracking techniq…

iPhone, at this very moment, ships with an llm that third party developers can use. People are already using local llms.

FYI: there are providers of deepseek that offer the same or lower pricing and zero retention policies.

It’s also a solved problem combined with a risk averse industry. COBOL on mainframes has worked reliably for decades. On the scale of what a bank will spend on operations the mainf…

Most of those are also at least a decade old, and some of them are acquisitions.

Maybe they enjoyed working with those people and don’t care about the status. It wasn’t so much snarky as just bluntly rude.

Docker has an ARR of ~$200mm. They did that by pivoting to a strong focus on developer tooling in 2019 after they nearly went under due to focusing too much on their enterprise inf…

As someone who grew up around professional chefs you might not understand the true baseline level of cooking knowledge that many have going into adulthood; following a recipe is a …

Nvidia has ever so slightly underperformed the SP500 YTD (at the exact time this comment is being typed), so its basically the apocalypse already.

Apple has a real knack for not being first mover but being “best” mover. They didn’t invent tablets or mp3 players or thin laptops or ARM laptops, but once they entered those marke…

That isn't deceleration, you've just chosen a very selective way to compare. If you use time as a denominator, which is kind of intrinsic when talking about rates of acceleration, …

I know everyone wants to crap all over these setups that are impractical, but this is how progress happens. People will keep plugging away at this and figure out how to avoid weari…

Not sure if you're thinking of the same story, but this reminds me of Cliff Stoll finding KGB hackers poking around military and university networks in the 80s because of a time bi…

Where can I do that? Do I have to manually extract each citation from a paper and then individually look each up? Can I validate quoted text without a subscription? Is it the same …

The power grid has the potential to be insanely dangerous. We largely have eliminated that danger because of tight regulations and codes. Look up backfeeding, which is a huge conce…

These are problems not inherent to solar, but to places that are underdeveloped and under-regulated. Plenty of places in modern and developing countries don’t have these issues.

I was responding directly to a question that you asked. Why in the world is that whataboutism?
