DHH's beliefs are fine and valid, and no, I'm not easily offended. The author is slimy because he doesn't contest anything DHH says, he just wags his finger vaguely in DHH's direction and cries "I quit" because some guy that he's never even met has views different than his own.

"Hey Siri, change the channel to ESPN!"

"Sure, I can call 911 for you"

Looks so soulless. I really prefer Google's approach with the fabric textures.

Bringing charges is at the discretion of the prosecutor, and the CEOs of these companies are dining with the president. Learn a little bit about how power works.

Stop the nonsense. 99% of monks are not scientists.

what?

The difference between math and all the other professions AI has been obsoleting is that math is actually not a useful pursuit. The tired old line about math someday discovering something that will be useful in an entirely unrelated field is mostly baloney, and the problems that mathematicians spend their years broadly have no real world applications at all. A modern day mathematician is much closer to a monk than a productive worker.

The people that deserve the jobs are Americans. It doesnt matter if a foreigner is more skilled--the American people don't want to complete for jobs in a global labor market.

I find this argument to be extremely ridiculous. They solved some math problems and published the results for free. No one asked them to do it, they weren't paid, and they don't owe anyone anything. Who exactly is exploited and excluded? The entire notion of open public information is that you can do anything you want with it, including build private systems. Is a baker "exploitative and exclusionary" for reading a recipe in a book and then turning around and selling that bread to customers, without sharing the recipe with the customers?

You were never stripped of anything

Math isn't scientific, none of that is "problematic"

I think you mean a "lecture on AI". Funny to imagine a person in the year 2000 thinking about why this clarification would be necessary.

Things can not have an "internal world" and still be conscious. Newborns are conscious but they still have no idea what is going on for a while.

This is not a very useful comment

Can someone please explain to me how the recent llm cache breakthrough doesn't alleviate this memory shortage issue? https://intl.cloud.baidu.com/en/article/8937874

Sure, will fix

believe me, im not in support of the delinquents. but they dont just go away. they stay in society. they vote and consume resources. if you dont get them to a point of self-sufficiency, they will happily become leeches on the rest of society anyway.

> There is a failure to understand that the process is the result

I'm glad to hear people say this now, because for the longest time they've also been bullshitting the public to think that pure math studies would someday lead to some kind of useful outcome.

"transforming the mind" is an exercise in ego-driven self-gratification, no different than getting ten degrees and never getting a job, nor any different than straight up porn or gambling. You have been put on earth to contribute to the progress of humanity, so get dirty and start making commodities. no more useless math-monks.

I can and do wear my meta glasses in public. There's no way I can ever wear this in public

The battery life on these devices is way too low for that

It's obviously sarcastic

Cybersecurity is a fragile system in Taleb's fragile-robust-antifragile framework. That is, as t->infinity, the probability of a hack approaches 1, because you only need to slip up once, and there is a small probability of the system's maintainers slipping up each day.
