Every website I visit could get a fraction of a cent in my Cloudflare Wallet. A human browsing incurs a few dollars a month. Plus, any website I access in this way decides not to s…

Apple will create a comparable device; it'll just take them five more years to get the product experience down.

It's also slow as hell. It takes like 200ms for the social media buttons to change color upon hover.

This just happens to be the consensus opinion for their group. Kids have never cared about being accepted by people 20 years older than they are; kids have always cared about being…

In sports betting contexts, you're often just betting against other players, I believe. If they're anything like prediction markets, the exchange isn't going to care how successful…

It's more that the military's goal isn't to produce adults that are indefinitely healthy, but rather a robust geopolitical deterrent that only requires its employees to be physical…

Fitness is specific to an activity, but yeah, the Barkley Marathon is probably the hardest form of ultra running.

Profiling is a pretty basic technique that is applicable to all software engineering. I'm not sure what a "normal" service is here, but I think we all have an obligation to underst…

I agree with both statements you've made, however I don't see why offering food and housing security would necessitate mass murder, if we were to try it from a less ideological fer…

I think we're at a point in the history of Western civilization where we should strive to guarantee non-painful survival for all our citizens. This doesn't necessarily mean comfort…

The external component is meant to fit in one's pocket, so the added size, heat, and moving parts would make for an awkward fit.

The AI industry seems to exist in order to make it possible for there to be value without labor.

I agree that it's a big change in the economics of getting art (e.g. a single game dev can now plausibly get assets this way), but I'm not sure that it's a change in the "cognitive…
