99.9% of all mass in the solar system is the Sun, a giant nuclear reactor. No one should ever accept energy conservation.

This is great news for gaming. Xbox, which has ruined Halo, Gears of War, Mass Effect, and countless other IPs, needs to be burnt to the ground.

Private enterprise is vastly more competitive than public institutions in every single facet of society. Defund all public science funding so we can have another 50 SpaceXs.

The current advancement of technology and warfare has opened up fascinating opportunities for powerful nations (USA). For example, given the extremely sophisticated targeting capacities of Palantir, how out of realm would taking out the entire Castro family be? I'm not talking about the morality, but simply the military options now available to the President.

If highly targeted/tailored LLM ads on free accounts aren’t good enough for HN, are any ads acceptable?

Let’s be reasonable.

Like I said, as it currently stands the evidence is 5,000 with Sam and like 5-15 against him (from the article).

We can theorize on motivations all day, but since the hitpiece didn't bother contacting any 'pro Sam' employees, it's a moot point.

Yet when he was fired, 99% of OpenAi employees backed him and were ready to resign. That actual event/evidence is more telling than any hit piece article.

Disappointed the article doesn't transmission of electricity and how little the loss is. People are quite surprised that it's like 3.5% per 1000 km.

We could just build out huge solar farms in AZ and transmit it accordingly. We did it for railroads, why not here?

Why do people accept that supply/demand works in so many industries when the private market is allowed to flourish, but won't accept it for healthcare, education, etc?

Same thing has been happening with sports bets for years, this particular point (threats) isn't unique to political betting.

You can't really gauge 'tone' via text, I was just referring to the mission success reality on the President's side.

This isn't a military decision but more a public opinion one. Should an American ship take a hit, have casualties, become disabled, etc it would put immense pressure on the administration to settle/end the war, even though on a military objective level it makes a lot of sense. This is a reality of the instant informational world we live in.

I didn't compare to that level, just had it create a plan first then implemented it.

Anecdotal, but it 1 shot fixed a UI bug that neither Opus 4.5/Codex 5.2-high could fix.

Or we just scale up energy, allowing people to live everywhere!

I see this as an energy problem. We have 'unlimited' water from the Oceans, and distillation technology exists, it's just not economically viable (enough) because of the high energy costs of distillation. Elon's solution to this is solar panels everywhere, since they're so incredibly scalable (imagine an automated solar factory). Hopefully this comes to fruition sooner rather than later.

The Wikipedia "reliability" list shows wild, almost laughable biases.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Per...

Surely people don't think sources such as Mother Jones are more 'reliable' than The New York Post, Fox News, or The Heritage Foundation? Not a coincidence there.

Having such obvious biases does nothing but damage the Wikipedia brand, and at this point has me anticipating Ai replacements.
