I'm definitely "America bad", and have observed the Russian government as absolute trash. I am far from alone on this viewpoint.

My experience with flight sim, boxing, golfing, and building games feels a lot better with any sort of VR headset. There is also a weird thing where building stuff in VR taps into some primordial primate urge to build much moreso than other gaming media. I've built some structural stuff in real life and the sense of satisfaction of building in VR is nearly identical, which is an absolute trip.

Always find work, sure, but work conditions are a big deal.

What ended child labor in (most) of the west? What gave us the weekend? What gave us paid time off? Blood. People had to sacrifice their lives. We have to actively fight for better working conditions.

Labor rights degraded quite a bit between boomers and millennials. Hell, it has degraded between Millennials and gen z! Our current economic model is not sustainable. It is a cancer.

Now the hard popup asking about cookies on that page is very ironic!

Aren't there a ton of data science people here on HN? I feel like that would cause a ton of bias and skew away from the general population.

I think when Bard reaches full integration with Google products and it is fully unleashed upon android phones with voice control, it will be a watershed moment.

>How will they monetize this

Public LLMs like Bard generate massive amounts of marketing data.

Remember that mentions on Twitter and tags on Facebook are called upon with @. I think the masses are quite ready indeed.

>one of the things I most appreciate about Sabine Hossenfelder (a physicist) is that she highlights the limits of knowledge in her (and adjacent) fields.

I suppose you missed her recent video about economics? Her content is getting more and more clickbaitey by the day. Some really half-baked data creeping into her videos.

I will remind you that most every parent and child both want this, albeit for totally different reasons.

The most efficient cost option is to have one cheap SSD for booting and a handful of apps that need the speed and then using a HDD for storage. Been that way for 10+ years

I would just like to state that you have filled my brain for the day. Thank you.

If Henry Ford really believed all that, then why was he such a union-buster?
