Buying mortgage-backed securities always ends up a wise choice :)
bdangubic··on A Tesla ran a stop sign and killed a man, Full Self-Driving/Autopilot was on
Not sure why you are getting downvoted here though yes, the system is not perfect, in some states more so than in others. it is a fine line between giving someone who deserves it a 2nd chance vs. someone with 17 priors. but guessing you would also agree that allowing "self-driving" tech to kill people on the road without any repercussions isn't all that ideal either?

> I would like to know why Tesla (or any automaker) is allowed to redact this information.

> sell off their US treasuries, end the AI capital bubble and deflate US big tech valuations.

They'd sell it off many moons ago if they could find a safer investment than US treasuries.

bdangubic··on If a Tesla Cybercab fleet were profitable, Tesla wouldn't sell you one
Tesla is not eating the cost of anything, they want to have their cake and eat it too. this will go as well for them as bunch of other things in recent years but just maybe this time people will realize they have been getting scammed for decade+

> The reason we read less long form prose is because we have more information-dense, relevant, and personalized forms of communication and knowledge transfer available to us

I heard that De Beers donated 99.6% of all of their profits so I am not sure what all the hoopla is about them
bdangubic··on The moral panic over data centres is foolish
if we limit the number of data centers so that it cannot exceed number of golf courses in any zipcode in america than this is a solid argument, otherwise it is strawman

bdangubic··on China, Egypt to do away with the use of the US dollar
it is like if you dated a punter and now quarterback asks you to prom :)
bdangubic··on Pangram Has Emerged as the Gold Standard of AI Detection. Should You Trust It?
we have tools for that, just use a different model to check the work of the other :)
bdangubic··on Ask HN: Code review of AI output, review what?
Why are you employed at all? AI is now capable of prompting itself so you really shouldn’t have a job working with AI.
bdangubic··on GPT-6 Astra
Anthropic should prep 5.2 and 5.3 at the same time, release 5.2, wait for Google to release their shit in a day or two later than then release 5.3 just to fuck with them :)

bdangubic··on Uber shuts operations in Nigeria and Uganda with immediate effect
in might be in Australia but certainly not in the US of A
bdangubic··on How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been?
if you amass 115k subscribers by basically being wrong along the way just about everything and the shift as to "not remain static" and then continue to be full of shit, that is one thing - another things is going from "hm, what a great toy this is" to "holy shit, I can take on 4 contracts at the same time and run 25 terminals of CC is parallel" :)
bdangubic··on Uber shuts operations in Nigeria and Uganda with immediate effect
exactly! it was more expensive, now taxi is often 20-30% cheaper and almost never more expensive
bdangubic··on Uber shuts operations in Nigeria and Uganda with immediate effect
taxis “weren’t competitive” when Uber rides were heavily subsidized and Uber was burning billions. I ride taxi now exclusively because it is almost always cheaper than Uber

bdangubic··on Coding Was Never the Bottleneck
“Coding was never the bottleneck” is the modern area “Monad is like burrito” - you gotta write one of these for street cred ;)
bdangubic··on I am no longer letting Claude Code add itself as Co-author in my commits
the core issue with commit message LLM attributions is related to copyright laws, which of course is currently very “gray area.” in several projects I am involved in and in talking to friends/former colleagues, the mandates to add attibution is largely about ability to copyright/protect vs. anything else that is distant second
bdangubic··on I am no longer letting Claude Code add itself as Co-author in my commits
we once fired a guy for not including link/attrbution to copy/paste SO function
bdangubic··on The Tariff Cost: analysis of the costs to Americans from new tariffs on Canada
sure you did, you are comparing EU and US throughout your entire comment...

> We have only 720 members of the EU parliament representing over 600 million people. In the US we have more people representing fewer people, ergo we are more representative.

> How is the president of the EU chosen? Is it a direct election across all citizens of the EU?
