Sometimes the works we do have from the ancient world seem…. Better? Like meditations is still the only ‘self-help’ book I’ve ever read that has actually made me a better person. I find the stoic philosophy so powerful, and every incarnation of philosophers afterwards are generally… pessimistic or cold and calculating?
The science of archeology is a destructive one. Temples and tombs escavated in the late 1800’s could have largely benefitted from the rigour and advances made in modern archeology. How much information and narrative are lost to time due to their archeological mistakes?
The same applies here. Experimenting with chemistry at all runs the risk of destroying the information forever. During these tests, the artifact must be preserved. If you destroy the artifact but are able to read it, did you really come out ahead?
This may come off as… impractical… but I don’t understand why.
The best way to obtain coins without going through KYC is by using the protocols. The most cost effective is running a filecoin node but there are thousands of ways of getting coins by participating in the ecosystem.
self custody vs. centralized exchange data would be relevant here. Instead of just saying “people don’t do it”. Because people do… and I would venture to say more people do it than keep their coins on a centralized exchange.
I write around 100-200 emails a day, coordinate across various projects and write a lot of copywrite around the solutions and systems the company develops.
Explain to me how this is ‘bullshit text’. It sounds to me like you are just repeating other criticisms you’ve heard because you don’t like the tool. To me, it would be rude to respond to certain emails in a way that I can tell chatGPT. I can give chat GPT a very basic framework and it will respond in a way that is not overly laconic.
Writing certain copywrite towards a requirement or proposal is also not “bullshit”. Chat got is useful for sketching out a rough outline and it’s easier to go and edit it to your liking then writing it from scratch.
I reject your definition of emails, copywrite and proposals as bullshit. They are necessary, and if I can use chat gpt to help me save time by proofreading, generating outlines, managing tone and generally making my communication more streamlined and shorter, how could you call all of that “bullshit text”.
Is it tho? A MetaMask wallet staking directly with the protocols/ yield aggregators is easier than creating a kraken account and doing KYC verification.
Try some prompt engineering courses. It’ll change your perception. Some of my prompts are like 1200 words just to set context. But I use it for email, marketing outreach, blogs, you name it. It’s drastically increased my productivity as a solo consultant.
Well… the whole ‘ancient apocalypse theory’ might be discredited, but the sites they visit date back extremely far into our ancient history. It also shows that pockets of architectural knowledge rapidly advanced and then receded all across the known world. One thing is for sure, the human story is far from a ladder, with periods of around 1000 years of advancements and then everything collapses for a couple generations.
I think it goes back to the OP’s original point… there are some things we cannot ever know for sure but they are fun to learn and talk about.
This is untrue. You aren’t thinking about the effects of sediment, usage, and erosion. When you build a dam and allow the riverbeds to dry, it changes the entire water table of the region.
If you don’t have any intentions of defending your beliefs, why do you put them out there?
It’s like throwing a punch with no intention of getting in a fight. You’re just bound to get your ass kicked.
Not only is the UK not a republic but Republicanism isn’t about needing a grown up, it’s about time. Understanding the implications and reading through a 150 page proposal on the bill is not possible for the majority of the population.
Yeah - it’s rather annoying how they lump in ‘non-economic activity’ with ‘wash-trading’. HFT is totally legitimate way of doing business, the liquidity is provides ‘may’ be good for markets and shouldn’t be lumped in with wash trading as “fraudulent” without any real analysis to back it up.
Wtf?… this is the most alarming statistic I’ve ever heard. Why is their estrogen in our drinking water, why does birth control put estrogen in our drinking water and where the fuck is the other 99% coming from?
I would recommend traveling. Maybe in South America. Travel aligns your priority’s if you stay in hostels and explore. You’ll learn necessities, privilege, love and hate.
It’ll get you out of your box of loneliness.
Yeah, there’s been a lot of ‘counter-point’ logic in some of the hacker news comments that seem…. Artificial. Some of the scale of the disagreements seems like something a simple chat bot could take, turn the connotation around and repost in ‘their own words’.
Make the programmers pissed off, disparage the company’s they work for and you might rob the US of its much coveted verve.
