The funny thing about comments about that - the browser is the most HACKED thing. If you were to compare a web page using HTML/JS/etc... to any app from the 80s/90s/00s/etc... it is light years beyond those technologies. So for people that complain about JS/font sizes/etc.. why haven't you all migrated to some form of browser that works for you, or plugin combination that makes things work for you - so you can just STOP. We have all the COOKIE ACCEPT/OPTIONS MADNESS because of people like you.

I mean for f-sake we even have agentic tools that can summarize the thing for you so you don't even have to visit it.

Now all we need is for someone to make a crypto currency so you can fractionally own IPv4 addresses.

Is IPv6 going to see it's epitaph instead of it's takeover soon?

What half am I supposed to be surprised by?

I remember about a year ago people were complaining about too many AI posts. times change

Record number of G4s too

Thank you for both replies. I have been hit hard with work (I'm building my own house and work full time) so it's been hard to formulate a response and research. What I was going to do is try to email all of these journalists and ask for their honest opinion about the story. That's it.

That's the actual problem with CA in general if you haven't noticed. Be good and watch them take everything.

It does seem like most of the American economy since factories left has been information asymmetry. The travel agents had the "special phone number" to call to get someone on a boat for half the price. Probably a little bit more than that. We're going to entering a time of crushing economic conditions.

The larger story is everywhere:

This hit the news a few weeks ago. Nick's coverage is a specific branch that has not been covered yet.

I also asked you early on in our discussion which journalist you would trust, and you did not answer. I like Nick Shirley, and I don't think he does bad faith reporting. If that sentence makes you want to leave the conversation, then congrats, just another leftist that does not want to engage on the arguments. I answered your question, now you answer mine.

I don't wish to discuss anything with someone that talks in memes. You're using it to avoid discussion. What specifically is not truthful in the video?

Our next trick, getting people to stop writing code (so we can stop writing python)

So no truth is enough. It's so against your personal belief system that it's worth ignoring.

So the fraud doesn't matter? What journalist would you trust so this story is real?

> Is it possible for an entire social structure to be based on lies? Is it possible for a society to pretend to be something completely different to what it actually is? The ethnographic record says yes. In fact, it’s the norm.

Same can be said for UFOs. Whether or not they exist, since there is no evidence that has a reliable chain of custody we end up with people saying there is no evidence. In fact you can be a direct witness and be told - no, you were on drugs and the picture you took of that UFO was a drug fueled weekend in Photoshop.

And society will continue to do this.

It's not like chatgpt suddenly messages you at 3am and says, I don't feel well. It's all time that you talked to it.

Still in development, but yes, the speed is absolutely nice.

I feel like the number of incidents related to "fully public S3 buckets" has gone down after AWS made it nearly impossible to miss the notice.

Hopefully prices stay the same, I run my small apps on groq. I get good enough summarization and simple agents from gpt120b which is on 15 cents for a million input tks.

899 at B&H started today 12/24

Which ones? And are those jobs hiring millions?

A wikipedia article has to attribute a source, and their sources are biased af.

749 for an M4 air at Amazon right now

I mean to your point, when someone is robbing a 7/11, in today's atmosphere, no - no they don't consider it because the punishment is fairly low. In Islamic countries, if you steal you will likely lose your hand (or your head). In those countries people REALLY do consider the consequences.

Now I'm not advocating for the second option there. Just something in between. (obviously a lot farther away than the second option).

Someone that is paid to install drywall is very much working a lot harder than any of us. Yet he's looked at every 5 minutes to make sure he's making progress. The progress is measurable (the room is drywalled or not). He is chewed out for his mistakes. There is no "PTO" let alone "unlimited PTO". Such a concept - can you imagine going to a drywaller while they are working and saying you don't have to do this now, in fact, we'll just pay you for the next month while you go on sabbatical.

Now just compare any of those points with that of a senior software engineer.

Now I'm not saying all drywallers are itching for us to lose our jobs, but part of that is they don't really know what our jobs are. But people are finding out, and resenting us.

We're fairly business focused, so when someone goes man I wish there was a way to meet people, they create a .com to help people meet (filled with bots) instead of trying to actually meet people.

At any rate, bars DO exist in the United States and last I heard they didn't all go out of business in the last week.

Other than going left leaning Robinson was not hated by his family, but when they found out they immediately got the police involved. Same with Mangione (not with the left leaning aspect, but the familial love).

I'm not saying your angle is wrong - it's just that one way or another they'll be turned in.

Escalating punishments often tend to take the "1-3%" of the bad people out of society that cause all the crime.

Remember from recent history these people that had 34 arrests or 73 arrests and they're out murdering people?

I mentioned to someone that day that the person would be caught by a family member - that this stuff was looking more and more like Mangione - who was also primarily caught by his mom. That being said, the only reason family ends up ratting these people out is because of the high pressure it ends up on the family. If it turns out they find these people, and the family did not turn them in, they are going to the big house too.

$1.1M to me is insane for 2BR/1.5BA

I'm building a 3BR/2BA house without contractors out in Rural CA over the last year for $200k
