    This does sound a lot like Washington Monument Syndrome but I’m happy to be corrected

    Can‘t wait for A2 to finally come out - must be any day now

    It’s odd to me how upset people get about this. Historic buildings seem very ledger-esque as changes and previous states get documented well and any modification isn’t truly erasin…

    The European Parliament is advertising this as a win for the EU. Yet it isn’t entirely uncontroversial and there’s plenty of voices arguing it’s overreaching - easy to argue this m…

    Great read and amazing initiative. Relevance of findings seems to 90% depend on whether you believe the EFSA BPA intake thresholds over the FDA. Love how transparent they’re about …

    Maybe. Alternatively it could just be the marketing department milking the narrative over an extended amount of time. Going instantly 100% “carbon neutral” through carbon credits i…

    This funny old narrative of a revolution in that direction sounds pretty misplaced if we're talking about a future where you won't need humans to get stuff done...

    I feel like a lot of that frustration comes from seeing "arts and culture" as the pinnacle of anything when maybe it's just an overvalued side-effect of human wiring to avoid bored…

    Not an expert on the space but LexisNexis for example is using Anthropic's Claude 2 and GPT-4.

    For any form of tech product work I'd rather work together with 10 very engaged people rather than 20 half-assers. Don't see why I'd wanna hire a part-time worker unless they're tr…

    Because they've been boiling the frog for 20 years. This one might not pass today but in 5-10 years we'll likely just be fine with it if the narrative continues to evolve on its cu…

    Sorry for self replying but I just had a look at the repo and it's definitely worth fully automating this. A js/python snippet converting pngs to superwhite video frames should be …

    Absolutely love reading about such practical little hacks. Really brings back the old excitement that got me into computer science. Also given how prevalent the issue of QR code br…

    I think the actual point is more about managing volatility rather than maximizing expected value as the investment horizon becomes more and more short term. Of course this doesn't …

    There's always "some" interface under the hood you can automate on - unless they start requiring captchas for every interaction. It might not be as comfy to use as the official API…

    This is very basic but I read both at a young age and I'm massively happy I did. 1st one being "Thinking fast and slow" by Daniel Kahneman - completely reshaped my model of how muc…

    Totally agree when it comes to "general insights" here. You're probably not gonna solve any major problems even though it feels like it in the moment. However, imho. altering the t…

    How's advocating for nuclear power related to demonizing environmentalist politics? Shouldn't it be an obvious fit to help reduce CO2 - which is the currently the biggest topic of …

    A neverending stream of dynamic content based on audience interaction. It's way more entertaining than I anticipated. This should also be fairly easy to monetize - either by having…

    Agree that the spiral as a core reason is total BS but for both the US and Europe it goes beyond just increasing the money supply. Reducing the supply of goods/materials will have …

    That doesn't mean you'd be trying to sell for lower prices, does it? A (sufficiently rational) investor's willingness to sell is mainly a function of current price vs. expected fut…

    So let's just go with this and say we draw a line between short term + higher risk and long term + lower risk investors. I still haven't seen the actual argument for what would mak…

    But unlike Hexagonal Architecture this one actually has a proper reason for being called hexagonal. Of all hexagonalisms, Hexagonal Architecture feels like the hardest to forgive. …

    Either you've missed the /s at the end or you know a lot more about some massive recent advances in tunnel drilling and construction compared to the public.
