Btw, there are a bunch of free websites if you search youtube to mp3

Regarding the caring for elderly part of this article, I want to write a story that's like the Ricky Gervais movie, The Invention of Lying, but instead, it's about the first person to build their own house. Until then, everybody lives in big houses of a hundred or more, sharing responsibilities and taking care of each other but still free to move to different houses if they find a better fit.

I think there's a lot to explore in the effects of isolation that we experience living in our own houses that people are made to think is the only way to live. "A house for every family" is an ideal that many people as virtuous but I think it's instrumental to lots of the problems of our society.

If you use Firefox, you can use the video pop out mode to make it whatever size you want.

Once AI can write better software, I wouldn't be surprised to see lots of low-level code rewritten and projects integrating vertically to the hardware more since it will become as simple as a prompt.

I can't believe this is still around. Back in 2005, I made a "vehicle editorizer" to build vehicles graphical using a VB6 GUI. I even had someone contribute a feature that enabled comments in the output. I was shocked they were able to read my code at that age.

Before my program, you had to plot out your vehicle points manually and type it up in a text editor. There was a lot of scratch paper involved!

I never understood why does the car crowd feel the need to push everyone else to drive cars?

They make the thoroughfares dangerous and increase the distances between things so much that the only way to exist is to have a car. They require paving huge areas so that temperatures are more extreme since there's so few tree anymore. Driving is extremely stressful, always worrying that someone could die if anyone driving stops paying attention for a second.

There are numerous reasons why I'm not interested in driving. Yet [sic] I can't go more than a day without someone from the car church complaining that their "rights" are being infringed.

Coinbase going to collapse? SFB released his plan for regulation immediately before going down.

I think SFB fits at this point.

It's a very long book. It was good when I read it years ago but if "Kafka" didn't make you want to read it, I have a hard time imagining you'd like 1q84. That said, after that long book, I've been good on murakami. I tried too but felt like I wasn't gaining anything anymore.

And guess what, you're gonna die some day!

What a terribly pessimistic view of sharing. MIT license gives ability to copy for any reason and it's very popular.

The 51% threshold in this metric is not meaningful like it is for block creation. It only means that it takes slightly longer for a transaction that interacts with contracts on the OFAC list to be included.

Is that website real? It looks like their design budget was negative dollars.

That's CA$2.39 * 0.73 (CA->USD) * 3.78 (liters -> gallon) = $6.59.

It costs exactly the same here in California.

Definitely agreed, I tried them a very few times and it didn't taste good and made me feel bad.

I don't care if it looks like meat, just make something nutritious and tasty.

Clearly written by somebody who has never been utterly surprised by what image come from a prompt input.

Definitely agreed. My workflow for a commit is always:

    git status
    git diff HEAD
    git add (usually -u)
    git commit

I catch so many mistakes checking the diff before committing. Just seeing the code in a different context helps things pop up.

Reading about these kinds of issues strengthens my belief that ecommerce using stablecoins is the way forward.

In a recent project, I wrote my own template class that works kind of like Lithtml but without any kind of magic reactivity. It just rerenders when properties are updated through the "set()" method.

If you're ok with using Cloudflare's free plan for your DNS, you can stop paying for each hosted zone.

Imagine being in Monterrey, Mexico, a city more than ten times bigger without water.

The guy was in Dresden, Germany when it was destroyed by firebombing in WW2. It may be sad compared to some views but after what he saw, it's remarkably positive.

Very good investigation. Detach 4 wasn't good enough to upload but 3 did kind of expand into 5, 5.2, and 5.3. As much as I want to turn Detach 5 into a nine chapter book, it's not easy.

The original notes that inspired all this are at detach.html without suffix. None of these are linked on the website as they are a work in progress. (Why have a personal website without some hidden gems?) The dream I think would be an anthology of short stories related to different paths from this kind of multiplicative ability.

Your telepathy explanation is exactly where I was coming from. This is why I believe we'll be able to live forever without uploading our minds into computers.

Thank you so much!

No, that's parthenogenesis. We can already do that with mice.

Wake me up when I can grow a mouse from my own body and see from its eyes.

Governed by "equitism?"

Get this guy a copy of Jason Brennan's Against Democracy where he argues that a more competent government could be achieved by having policy decisions made by trained professionals in the same way cities are designed by city planners.

You wouldn't want an untrained surgeon but we're ok with electing someone who has no experience with writing policies that have major consequences for people's lives?
