Crazy to think we were picking up 16gb M2 Mac mini’s for like $800 a few years ago.

This is a myth. You can see in both 2018 and 2020, both of which saw Democrat victories, that NASDAQ composite actually went up within 24 hours. Same with the dow. You also see the nasdaq still up a week later in 2018. It was like 2% down in 2020 a week later, which is not meaningful for this argument especially given Covid is a confounding factor. I stopped doing research after this point for specific examples.

There is no meaningful trend or change that happens after elections. Some sector see some weird shifts that correct generally within days

It’s potentially a dealbreaker for millions of people whether they want it to be or not unfortunately. For them accessibility is not optional or can otherwise be taken as a “wait and see” issue.

This is a very uncharitable take IMO that veers into (I’m assuming unintentional) snobbery. Some people just have a routine or whatever that helps them get through the workday. My taste gets a lot simpler when I’m at work for sure. I really enjoy putting on shows I’ve already watched a dozen times, regardless of quality.

What are you using?

Dang really? Guess I just haven’t needed it in a while

Freetube but if you want HD you have to separate out the video and audio downloads then combine them after. A little annoying but it does have download right there in the client

If the concern is business practices, privacy, etc. adding Google to the mix doesn’t seem great

>unhelpful

I think that’s a bit of an undeserved framing personally

> You lose that if you use an LLM which was trained on the original expression.

>To keep the clean room clean, you'd need to use an LLM which you could prove had never seen the original.

In this true though? It seems the jury is out on whether or not LLM outputs are considered “new” or not legally speaking.

> and also risk over-relying on the AI's trial-and-error instead of developing a solid intuition of its functioning yourself.

Not something everyone values unfortunately.

Someone hasn’t lived in apartments in the suburbs!

The difference is this humanoid is meant to be a bespoke “does everything” robot. The others are very purpose-built/particular. And with good reason of course, an “everything humanoid” is beyond a moonshot in 2026

Reads to me like a typo. They likely meant “unlike”

Yeah I wouldn’t be caught dead trying to snowboard down a mountain anymore lol

Yes hockey has CTE’s but it’s at a lower rate than with US football. Nobody is saying it’s super safe or doesn’t have CTE cases.

This is incorrect. I can tell you offhand soccer and hockey both have lower rates of CTE’s, soccer by a significant amount. American football has been the most studied and reported on because of how bad it is and how popular the sport remains anyway

The concussion rate in American football (especially pre-NFL) is significantly higher than soccer’s and as the other commenter said, soccer orgs have been addressing it (way better than the NFL has) for a long time. It’s also more preventable in a way it simply isn’t in American football.

They don’t even compare tbh

Skiing becomes incredibly dangerous once you get into like…your 40s and beyond unless you have been doing it pretty consistently your whole life. And even then it’s still very dangerous. High speeds, downhill, crashes are serious.

It’s a sport many people step away from for long periods of time (I.e. the muscles aren’t in shape and they're rusty) and it demands a lot unless you’re sticking to bunny slopes.

Tackle football is basically the only sport my kids are not allowed to play. I don’t talk about it because I don’t want it to become something forbidden and therefore cool, but if they naturally find their way there and start getting pushy about it, it’s one of the few things I’m prepared to put my foot down about with no compromise.

All we’re doing is adding another layer between us and the information. Google flash is still pulling on the same poor information. But it’s not as good at discerning what is useful and what is not as we are (people going way too far out on a limb outside of their domain expertise not withstanding, which is another part of the problem and why this stuff can be dangerous)

I’d rather read my own internal wiki tbh

There are a lot of things we didn’t have when we were younger that are far more necessary today than they were then.

>the yard is the size of a postal stamp

The fact that it has a yard at all is something. Countless people never have one in their lives. Plus it’s a perk not a necessity.

You trust other countries to behave like this out of the goodness of their hearts or something?

If China’s selfish behavior = more open LLM tools and greater ability to run them at home, I’ll gladly take it over the US frontier labs’ druthers, which is a restricted/closed shop we rent from.

Some variation of “you’re just using it wrong” is usually the refrain I hear when I talk about things LLM’s are bad at. Anything is possible if you divine the right words to input and fix your harness and set pick the perfect model and…

Post-AI working on it seems to be the context.

So, what? We just ignore them?

This feels like just another variation of “it’s not the tool it’s the user,” which is too frequently leveraged during any discussion about AI. It makes it impossible to honestly assess the quality of the tool. You can always just say “people are doing it wrong.”
