These are so obviously different

Nah that's just Hudymenko being Hudymenko

This was a literal hundred years ago! With the extent of scientific advancement back then, black holes were as likely to exist as they were not to. Doubting their existence could certainly not be a marker of lacking intelligence.

Oh, Righteous Performers: Where Are Your Voices Now? (essay)

Oh wow, he really did! I forget how grim things really are

That guy is a fraud even by the silicon valley metric. Not rushing to defend that demographic, but he is not really a fair representative. Nikola trucks were literally a fake product, they had to tow to the top of the hill and release them to film them moving. He's in prison at this very moment.

Hate when this happens

A monopoly prioritizes profit squeeze over any metric of quality

Not necessarily. Democracies can indeed crash and stop very abruptly, regardless of historical legacy.

Star Wars was always about being a flashy bowl of slop. Star Wars gained and kept up its cult following by being nothing more than a space wizard action movie, and there's nothing wrong with this — there's no need to "retcon" depth to the places where there never meant to be any.

Even went as far as to enforce nuclear disarmament from nations that were left without means to defend themselves from existential threats

bad and naughty videogame protagonists get put in The Cube to atone for their crimes

Because assuming the opposing side becomes increasingly correct by default. Usually in both directions

This game is called Building a self-hosted compiler

A honorable sudo-ku.

If this was true, Iran wouldn't be screaming about it now

The phrase “AI will replace X” is often shorthand for “we don’t fully understand what X actually does."

A huge proportion of climate solutions journalism is focused entirely on 'we promise this can be fixed without you having to change anything', and they'll accept wild, absurd and almost fraudulently misleading greenwashing uncritically so that message can be preserved

I'm sorry, not a native speaker, nor very familiar with design experts lingo; so my language may not be very accurate, but this looks like shit

The isn’t even like Christmas, it’s better than Christmas cause on Christmas we were bombed from those aircrafts

A Swiss mountain village was mostly flattened yesterday by a massive deluge of ice, rock, and mud from a glacier.👀

The BBC describes Blatten's fate as "the worst nightmare for communities across the Alps," where #climatechange is making glaciers unstable. Full story:

Then tracking the actual most recent state becomes a problem and race condition in itself. Maybe introduce a requirement for client to solve an NP cryptographic problem to allow appending?

And you could call this chain of blocks, each recording an atom of state, a "chain-block".

What software is this about? As a conventionally able document author, how do I verify accessibility of the resulting document?

Btw, if an LLM provider tells you their system is so smart, it even tries to blackmail its users, then that's marketing. It makes for fantastic headlines in media who have no clue (which is most of them).

The headlines should be: LLMs still too unreliable to be deployed in serious contexts.

This industry has chronic syndrome of premature revenge fantasy. Nobody will pay you for the quality of your code, and, face it, nobody ever did. Nobody will pay for a major rewrite of an AI generated database, they will pay the lowest bidder to slap together a patch on top of it. As it always were.

Newton cradle swing would be half as fun as a normal one for exactly 2 people, and rest would find it slightly bumpy and boring

You cannot have any good faith environmentalist arguments when the domain of the discussion is US suburban lawn culture.

Hey, same! But like any games at all ever

That is unverifiable, so should be considered as posturing for the investors
