>Months later, New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller proposed a bill mandating all state residents to build their own shelters, but it didn’t pass. Wow, the bill attempts to make the ca…

Congrats! What has it been like developing on the AVP?

I don't want that, but I see your point. I would rather our population have a healthy immune system where bad ideas just don't survive, than to have us live as Bubble Boy, cut off …

Where can I read about the constitutional rights of "the social organism"?

>We take away your freedom and put you in jail. The ACLU has defended literal neo-Nazis and white supremacists right to rally and share their ideas on several occasions. Sounds lik…

>I would be delighted to read about opposing opinions, provided they are presented + supported by provable facts. Opinion a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily…

You're being hyperbolic. Community Notes on X are an example of these tools, and they are not ignored or distrusted from what I've seen. If your tools are poor, make better tools. …

So then you need to come to terms with people rejecting what you want them to believe. Some people won't believe you no matter what. Does that mean you get to reach for another too…

"How do we stop people from sharing (what I deem to be) fake news?" is the wrong question. The right question is "How do we give people the tools to identify fake news?" If you giv…

Since we're making silly comparisons, charitable organizations also give things away for "free", making the recipients somewhat dependent on them. There's plenty to criticize OpenA…

There's just too many people in tech, because tech needs too many people. Once we have better tools to reduce complexity and allow teams to be much much smaller, many of these prob…

I've implemented a very similar RAG hybrid solution, and it has improved LLM responses enormously. There are other things you can do too that have huge improvements, like destructu…

When you log into Carta, it used to show the FMV of your shares. This was not the FMV at exercise time, it was a current FMV (I would log in every quarter to see it change). This i…

Can you not evaluate the contents of an article on their own merit, without first biasing yourself for or against the author? Of everything the article mentions, you seem to think …

What's your own political tilt, so that I can "just note" it?

Having written a 3d game engine from scratch, I had automated tests, but they were more comparable to "golden" tests, which are popular in the UI test world. Basically, my renderer…

Where do you recommend this? It sounds dangerous for databases that do not implement RLS, like Mysql, MariaDb, Sqlite. I think you should highlight that very clearly somewhere.

What? How does that ensure user 123 only generates LLM queries that constrain on rows where user=123?

What guarantees do you offer with query security if I turn this over to an end user? How do I keep them only accessing their own data?

There are many many many movies with conversational AIs. Why that one?

I would like to think that a normal person, having not been able to hire voice work from a specific well-known actor, and wanting to avoid any image of impropriety, would use a com…

This whole thing is starting to feel like another Sam Altman spotlight production. There's enough evidence to show no wrongdoing, but it was handled in a way to make people think t…

What's the steelman argument for this being a slippery slope? I can't think of one.

But your product is producing human-formatted content for human recruiters. It sounds like you're interested in increasing the noise until there's no signal, and then hoping someon…

I mean this question with the best intentions: Can you share why you think this is a good idea and what do you think is the long term implications of AI-ifying resumes?
