How countries with wet/hot climate that achieved economic success have solved it? Because my cynical mind tells me that the only thing it will result in is 1. Extremely low product…

not a fan of defending billionairs, but is mostly a useless populist slogan* You can do full Dekulakization ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dekulakization ) on them and it won't ch…

I think there is probably a research paper hiding inside this game. I couldn't guess Dice because, as an ESL person, I couldn't make the D-i combo sound like /d/+ /aɪ/ in my head (…

You can be poor and obey the law. You can protect the poor and enforce the law. It is the weird identity politics is what gets in the way.

I can’t use it after engaging with Claude. Even simply having a conversation about some design decisions seems annoying. So I would agree with you, it is not great.

This is all cool, but to allow ssh access I still need to install tailscale through brew? i don't get it.

It is a fascinating take. I am curious to understand what model you think would work. The U.S. effectively has a dysfunctional system with wild mix of "no regulation" and heavy sta…

I was really hoping for 11inch version, but I am just that weird.

> we won’t work on product marketing for AI stuff, from a moral standpoint, but the vast majority of enquiries have been for exactly that. Our reputation is everything, so being as…

Very pleasant. happy to report -- i delivered all packages.

How does it destroy the country? I genuinely do not understand your logic? Is it because you assume less talent will move to the states?

They spoke with respect and pointed out that, from the point of career growth, they may need to talk to someone. They pointed out that there might be more effective ways of dealing…

interesting out of all "thinking models," I struggle with Gemini the most for coding. Just can't make it perform. I feel like they silently nerfed it over the last months.

It is an important point. Our understanding of what is “disease”/“malfunction” and how to address diseases has been changing. I can see how if we, as society, - gain such immense w…

“Fundamentally normalize” is the part that surprises me. I sometimes think that it is the refusal to hold two thoughts simultaneously that drives it. One can value/respect people w…

Both sides have wild distortions, I just feel like it is “more clear” what’s going on in the right.

I think it is worth a separate research that modern definition of progressive thought considers eliminating/treating a genetic malfunction "unethical".

because alot of times when they do it makes the news and because when it does happen.. it usually happens in (very few) "first world countries"?

> just how ethical it is to completely eliminate Down's from the gene pool wait.. what?

Yesbut… is it true? MSFT is very successful long-term. You’re making an assumption that teams having control over their work will lead to better quality of product (which i agree) …

The fact that you hate it and yet still use it explains why they can afford it to be so bad. Also.. most people want to do their job well, very few people are aligned in what “doin…

Is every sprint a spiral towards destruction?

It is fascinating. I assume that the tech world is further to the left, and that interpretation of "left" is very pro-AI regulation.

Just like GDPR, it will tremendously benefit big corporations (even if Meta is resistant) and those who are happy NOT to follow regulations (which is a lot of Chinese startups). An…

The only issue with this tax is that I doubt MTA is capable of putting new revenue to good use. Effectively we added a barrier to travel (this IS a tax), with some positive externa…
