please, make a car I can buy with self driving as good as a tesla, so I can sell my tesla and no longer have to support elon.

been on retatrutide a couple of months, used to drink maybe 3 beers a week

now, alcohol has become the least interesting thing in the world, I just can't make myself drink it, it is so strange

my comment is that it lowers the threshold to "just doing things"

An experiment where people "HAVE TO DO something" either way is testing something different

I know a fair amount about native android app development now because of using AI to build several native apps. I would know zero about about native android development if I had never attempted to build a native android app.

I have to stretch your analogy in weird ways to make it function within this discussion:

Imagine two people who have only sat in a chair their whole lives. Then, you have one of them learn how to drive a car, whereas the other one never leaves the chair.

The one who learned how to drive a car would then find it easier to learn how to run, compared to the person who had to continue sitting in the chair the whole time.

I'm no fan of AI in terms of its long term consequences, but being able to "just do things" with the aid of AI tools, diving head first into the most difficult programming projects, is going to improve the human programming skills worldwide to levels never before imaginable

I've been using it for over a year, if there are any trackpad issue now, I haven't noticed any

Maybe they needed a place to store the dodecahedrons? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_dodecahedron

I think it's such a crazy idea, even if a 5 year old tell a teacher about it or something, who's going to take the story seriously?

I think it is likely your wish will be fulfilled, ai slop posts and spam emails for everyone, at a scale that will be monumental.

The bun acquisition is driven by current AI capabilities.

This argument requires us to believe that AI will just asymptote and not get materially better.

Five years from now, I don't think anyone will make these kinds of acquisitions anymore.

Yeah, my rule when I got started was "If I ever lose a lifetime aggregated $3000 in the markets, then the markets are not for me". Then once you're ahead in the markets, it's fine to continue trading.

(Note: I ended up breaking my rule by continuing to trade after losing $5000, but then did great in the markets anyway in the long run LOL)

Whatever you decide, be aware of the following:

- You will sleep 5% better every night from here on out if your mortgage is paid off

- You'll sleep 5% worse every night from here on out if you have 300k riding in the markets

must. not. go. too. deep. into. forth. rabbithole.

yeah, but it's so much cooler/romantic to learn the very first written language, even if other languages have advantages.

buy on the rumor, sell on the news

asahi runs great on m1, m2- but not on the newer chips.

M1 and M2 Macs run Asahi Linux very well (but no option for M3,M4,M5 yet)

No, I don't think bitcoin could go to zero- hardly seems like a rational opinion at this point to think it could go to zero (short of a human extinction event, or near-extinction event, or some other extremely remote abstract theoretical scenario)

Just give us a date/year/etc in which you think the value of bitcoin will go to zero

If you are unable to do that, then you implicitly agree, as pretty much everyone does now, that bitcoin has an intrinsic market value that will remain over an indefinite time horizon

I would want the robot to be programmed to immediately leave any room a member of our family enters, always cleaning only the empty rooms

It can't be true because it sounds like science fiction to you?

Everything about every part of AI in 2025 sounds exactly like science fiction in every way. We are essentially living in the exact world described in science fiction books this very moment, even though I wish we didn't.

Have you ever used an ai chatbot? How is that not exactly like something you'd find in science fiction?

Weak ai is a problem, but isn't going to lead to 100% human extinction

Human extinction won't happen until a couple years later, with stronger ai (if it does happen, which I unfortunately think it will- if we remain on our current trajectory)

I don't like straight displays, things at the corners are a different size than things in the middle, because they are further from my head. On curved displays, objects on different areas of the screen are the same size as they originally appeared.

Markets require property rights, property rights require institutions that are dependent on property-rights holders, so that they have incentives to preserve those property rights. When we get to the point where institutions are more dependent on AIs instead of humans, property rights for humans will become inconvenient.

Pure speculation, but I would guess people first mixed wax and lamp oil in different ways to still get the burning effect of oil, with less of the cost of the oil, then added a wick to help light the oil/wax.

Then eventually that product morphed over time to the point where they realized the oil wasn't actually a necessary component

Unless you do drones only on your private property, they are inherently a creepy, invasive technology (even though I think they're super cool and like playing with them, too)

But junk food is fun: Maybe we can eat junk food, have fun in life, and still be reasonably healthy, with the help of science

(and if glps don't work well enough to allow this, then maybe the next medicine in the pipeline)

great to learn from the headline that this tech only works for disaster response maps, and isn't usable for other types of maps, like mapping out the front lines of a war

I feel like the correct, boring answer is "they didn't focus on getting people the best website for what they were searching for"

What would have been hilarious is if he had said "my 14th birthday was quickly approaching" at this point in the post
