Dark skin typically provides a protection equivalent to a ~10 SPF. Meaning some protection, but tons of the actual damaging UVB still going through.

I think part of the answer is how much American culture permeates a lot of the online discourse - including their ultra-partisan politics.

There isn't a single party that represents what I believe in - some are just overall clos0er to than others.

Took me a while admittedly (probably a "me problem") but it's a word play of "Uyghur".

> the sentiment of nuclear depends purely on which party you vote for

Unless you personally agree with whatever your preferred party's line is on everything and generalize that sentiment, I'm not sure how to get to that conclusion.

Could have all the best reasons in the world,

Which startups specifically are spending billions to build fab chips?

Almost anything can be made "about the kids" with the right framing.

Meh. Just this week, I've had two Sonnet 4.8 agents generate, in parallel, a 2000 line wall of brittle bullshit, and a well architected solution with 20% of the amount of code, to the same problem, from the exact same initial context, and very similar prompts. Come on, they can do poor quality work too.

You're right that it's as dangerous as it's executing random third-party code on your machine, but the method also has propagated far beyond PoCs and such at this point. All of these projects and many others push that install method: Bun, Deno, rustup, k3s, Docker (if using their helper script), Homebrew, Tailscale...

Growth only lessens their power if it benefits those without, which, even by the most optimistic takes, hasn't really happened since at least the 80s.

That works, until that inevitable one merge that's harder to fix and takes longer, which in my experience then tends to snowball until it's basically the very merge hell you were trying to avoid. Can't say I've ever had a great experience with long lived feature branches. I can't imagine what it would even look like trying to do this on such a massive project and such an overarching feature.

Funny, I've been emulating games for literal decades at this point, but remapping buttons is one of the first things I did in every one of them, so I never knew the defaults hehe

Money pays the bills, not ambition and competition. Every freaking thing out there uses money to keep score. There's no reason we should not use money to keep score of the people hoarding more and more of the money bags, and actively using their money towards leaving the rest fighting over am ever shrinking pot.

Are you okay? You don't talk like "the only sane person here".

Except it's pretty well documented (and this is total conjecture, but if you ask me, there are probably are a bunch of undisclosed cases) to have had a good amount of close calls. With the fire-on-warning stance many powers have, it doesn't take an attack, but just enough of the appearance of it to trigger a response.

Would have Netflix had much of a senior+ applicant pool without the entire industry around it hiring and training the juniors they didn't?

Something something meritocracy blabla

Is there anything indicating this would be what would happen?

You're talking about replacing certain humans with robots. They're talking about replacing humans with robots - final.

It's almost always user data these days, so probably that.

Funny cause I'm quite literally having this exact issue with 4.8 as we speak. I've been going back and forth with Claude since yesterday afternoon on chopping up, stabilizing and facilitating recovery on a flaky mega-pipeline. Not 5 minutes ago, I had to remind it that two of the solutions it proposed were not possible because the target technology doesn't allow what it wanted to do, despite pointing it to the very docs that says it can't be done in the first place.

As far as its tone... Both feel like sycophantic as hell to me. To be honest, they just all feel so.

This idea that the only way a citizen can disagree what their government is doing is by voting on election day needs to die.

> Personally I'm in the camp that the world has bad guys, and they are building technology too. Smartest to make sure yours is better.

I get the idea, but it is also the same argument that has fueled the nuclear arms race that stuck all of us in this permanent launch-on-warning, mutually assured destruction situation.

"Corporations are controlled by humans, therefore critics are motivated by anti-rich sentiment" is definitely a take

Hah, I know the feeling. I installed Ubuntu on a PC recently, it obviously happened to be one of the days they got DDOSed and apt repos were unreachable. I had other things to take care of, so I put it aside for the next week or so. It didn't help very much, cause after picking it back up, halfway through, Snapcraft went down.

I've been priced out of these areas. I'd gladly move back in town if I could afford anything closer, but I can't. I make quite higher income than the median, so I'd be extremely surprised if this was NOT the rationale for many others.

Ouch! I'm under 3. It follows me everywhere too. Early on, I kept trying leave without it when sleeping out for one night. All it achieved was having to catch up on sleep for the next few days. Nowadays I use it even when taking a short nap.

> 1. Don’t Mistake Your Vocation If one's knack/vocation just objectively doesn't pay a livable wage, what's the alternative?

2. Avoid Debt Like the Plague In a world where home prices are worth decades of pre-tax salary, where less than a third of home purchases are cash, and where most of those are older people with accumulated wealth or previous paid-for property, this more or less equates to saying to young people "do not ever think about owning the place you live in".

3. Whatever You Do, Do It With All Your Might While I agree that success generally is a result of work+opportunity, I have seen it come from the opposite enough times that I have a hard time believing it really is remotely close to be one of the main factors of financial success.

4. Preserve Your Integrity For some reason, I heavily doubt the majority of the true wealth ~hoarders~ holders of this world got there from integrity.

Oof, and here I thought my AHI of 69 was bad (which it kind of is regardless). My condolences. Glad the CPAP helped, it completely and utterly changed my life too.

What a reductive and narrow definition of desirability.
