All human-caused fires aren't arson, most of these are usually negligence (source: worked in operations at fire service). Not discounting the risk of arson but I find it is used a …

The immigration policies (or mass-deportations) that Mullvad co-CEO is supporting with political donations cannot be achieved without mass surveillance and secret police. It is rea…

I assume advertising. But I'd claim that the money is actually going to anthropic and to a lesser extent openai

These are the same execs who count their flight time as working hours but refuse to do the same for their run-of-the-mill employees commute time.

Opus Fast Mode is 30$/150$/M Input/Output cost. Mythos's pricing (from model card) is 25$/125$ Input/Output cost. Based on this I doubt that Mythos pro is too dangerous to release …

Canadian news might've been easier to replace with American news outlets due to the deep ties between the two and the shared language. I doubt this would be the case for Italian ne…

I am very skeptical of the argument that companies are competing with each other on market share. There is arguably a lot more competition between AI companies than in most of the …

I have been using it to learn Chinese along with other standard resources. My reading comprehension has improved a lot after I started to use LLMs to understand sentence structures…

Thanks for correction. I looked up the news and could find reporting that some fragments of a missile did hit kindergarten. Thankfully no kids were there. I'd edit my previous comm…

Your comment made me realise that while Iran has attacked a dozen countries, they have yet to attack a school or a hospital. Not condoning anyone but shows the priority of both sid…

The fact that percentage of older population increased is a dead giveaway that most young people are migrating (to US most likely) and more akin to exodus. A very similar pattern t…

I'd also add that it is easy to underestimate the water usage. Desalination could be viable if it was only for subsistence/drinking. But water use is extensive in every single prod…

This is real. I work at one of the big tech and have access to their internal head count breakdowns. The overall headcount is mostly stagnant but the US headcount is decreasing wit…

My first thought was that the sanctions are due to investigations into US presidents (like role of Bush in Second Gulf War or Obama/Clinton's role in Libyan Civil war) but it is du…

> Hypothetical scenario: we have 100 houses, and 200 young families looking for one. Your solution in effect is: let's give 100 houses to the 100 young people with an inheritance T…

Where do you think the money that is accrued by the most wealthy will be spent/invested/parked? What will its effects be on the broader economy? Assuming that the money is all used…
