Great plan, glad someone with your wisdom is thinking so hard about these kinds of problems.
We’ll take millions of displaced truckers and put them “somewhere” and they’ll do “something”.
Luckily picking up a new trade will be as easy as switching from JavaScript to Python for them.
They’re already overqualified for DoorDash and uber after all.
I’m sure they’ll love starting from scratch as basically an apprentice making beans compared to their previous wage
At least for LLM absolute worst case scenario you can run models yourself.
Classic "you're holding it wrong" (maybe enhanced by exercise/nutrition science being what it is with a study and expert representing every side of an argument)
I'd personally probably do it like
> Someone told me about a recent paper which showed that sleep deprivation had surprisingly little impact on muscle hypertrophy, and that mechanical stimulus seemed to be the dominant factor.
> Can you comprehensively fact-check this, and let me know what the general scientific consensus on the topic is?
Even then you can't be certain of course. Even reading the cited studies you can't be certain unless you know enough to interpret them. But you'll probably be a bit more informed than you would be if you were just going off news article titles you see on social media like the average person.
But imo it's not a bad thing. Most sites looked like shit in the past. The content is usually where I focus my changes when dealing with LLM generated HTML. And if I want it slightly less LLM flavored in terms of design I just pick a random design system to tell it to use. Apple HIG, IBM Carbon, etc.
Usually just picking your own palette, a design system, and making it remove all the stupid details it decides to add will improve your end result by a lot.
Still very similar
It’s basically synonymous with user-generated content site. It’s why TikTok is social media and Netflix isn’t, and PineDrama is somewhere in the middle because even though it’s studio content there’s still emphasis on the comments and whatnot.
This is of course unsubstantiated, and probably impossible to do so from the outside.
OpenAI said
> Following an investigation, we have confirmed that Buckmaster’s Codex prompts over the two months preceding this announcement and paper on September 8, 2026, could not have influenced the system in any way, including through training.
OpenAI initially said it was uncertain whether or not it could have happened. Following investigation they said the above. And that no user input beyond whatever date could have affected the system.
So the question is do you believe this or not? Short of an external audit the answer will be “no” for many people who will continue to repeat as fact that OpenAI stole and laundered the solution. Even if an external audit found nothing, there’d still be people who didn’t believe it and kept repeating the same lines they read from other commenters. Even the original researcher isn’t making claims as strong as the average HN user is doing on his behalf.
The only thing that’s really substantiated is that OpenAI’s research on Navier-Stokes was done because of knowledge of competing work.
That’s without oasdi, Medicare, state taxes, city taxes, and insurance.
44% though was high, you’re right about that, because some of that tax was paid up front off of bonuses and will reduce over the course of the year.
I’ll probably end up around 35% without counting retirement and of course without counting all the other nickle and diming taxes that are paid post tax
Is 80/20 ever generally correct? Why is it favored over the 90/10 meme? Why would it apply to this? Why wouldn’t the numbers be vastly different for different domains of content generation? Etc.
If you pay attention, so much user content is just repetition of something they read on the same fucking website and uncritically checked into their brain.
Current HN top post is Roblox downloaded 145GB models from us (including adult content) without asking. I fully expect to start seeing comments to the tune of “Roblox is stealing porno to train AI for children” within the day in any discussion Roblox comes up in.
Why would these folk’s contribution to any other user content site be any more thoughtful?
