> Raising awareness is the only real solution.

You'd have to raise awareness on every single person in the room and them sustain pressure to the organization in order to have proper CO2 levels in the room/organization.

And then you have to align every other person on every other organization to do this as well and hope for the best.

Or, you can do the right thing and have the state introduce regulations

"We are going to call the current situation anything but class warfare."

boomers vs millenials, reds vs blues, south vs north, city folks vs country ones

I am not sure I like the direction the modern libraries are taking.

Libraries should be places where people pickup books and read them, that's it.

They should not be community centers, DYI hobby centers, convention/exhibition places.

I feel they have been co-opted by people who have no interest in knowledge acquisition.

How much cheaper will a phone with 2gb vs one with 4gb? What changes in the supply chain?

> This decision seems to based more in politics than engineering.

Project governance is very important on a project; the fact that Bun's authors bent the knee to their new owner shows where their priorities lie.

> Have you observed Bun have more segfaults, OOMs, etc, since the Rust rewrite? Have you noticed more security vulnerabilities? Have you seen more bugs?

I - them - are not going to sit around waiting for bugs to start crashing everything

> I don't select my engineering tools because they give me a bad feeling - I select them because they do the thing I want them to

Good thing that you don't run an open source project then, I would remove anyone's project from my dependencies who thinks like that.

> It’s always fascinating to see how Westerners idealize Japan

Replace 'Westerners' with Americans and you are spot on.

I have never met any European that glorifies any part of Japan (I'd see Asia as a whole), most of them will tell you how the tall buildings make them feel little and how the society is beyond oppressive.

Whatever meritocracy exists in capitalism is ironed out by those rigid hierarchies.

I am not sure what is appealing about Japan, Korea or any of these parts of the world, to me they are full of plastic, sugar and late stage capitalism that makes the Americans look as socialists.

I do strongly suspect that a certain type of male likes these places for reasons I cannot even hold in my mind for more than a few seconds.

All I want is a machine that I can drop ingredients in it and it can give me a delicious meal

And another that I can just drop all my clothes in, and have them washed and ironed for me.

Doesn't have to be a humanoid.

Are you going to offer a “multi sided, unbiased and fairly sophisticated” view yourself or?

The view that trump went to Iran because “regime awful” does not seem to qualify

> America wages a war of revenge

A war of what? Do you really believe that states wage war because of "revenge"?

> Perhaps America isn't as dumb as you think

No, they are dumber.

If this presidency was in Europe - or any other 1st world country - it would have been obliterated immediately and the party wiped out in the next elections.

> because of their strategic preparation.

lol to that.

> it's not an exaggeration to say that Cuba is flattened and invaded that same afternoon

But it is, the US is no position to flatten anything.

Afghanistan? Lost Vietnam? Lost Ukraine? Lost Iran? will be lost

And these are heavily embargoed 3rd world countries.

In the first days of the Israeli-US war in Iran (a country under decades of embargo by the way) the US, Israel and vassals lost 60+ planes (plus who knows what else they are not reporting.

Trump is not coming out of this, if he makes the grave mistake of sending troops to their demise this administration is done.

> There is absolutely no doubt about Yann's impact on AI/ML, but he had access to many more resources in Meta, and we didn't see anything.

That's true for 99% of the scientists, but dismissing their opinion based on them not having done world shattering / ground breaking research is probably not the way to go.

> I sincerely wish we will see more competition

I really wish we don't, science isn't markets.

> Understanding world through videos

The word "understanding" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. I find myself prompting again and again for corrections on an image or a summary and "it" still does not "understand" and keeps doing the same thing over and over again.

It just seems to me that that Macbook Neo is basically them telling us that come next year they will unify iOS and MacOS and they are testing the waters at the moment.

All this version alignment, the blurring of "here is a laptop with A processor and iOS" points to that direction.

The errs of Tahoe are basically a result of the rush on that direction

I am 37;

Claude Code and it's parallels have extinguished multiple ones.

I was able to steer clear of the Bitcoin/NFT/Passport bros but it turns out they infiltrated the profession and their starry puppy delusional eyes are trying to tell me that iteration X of product Y released yesterday evening is "going to change everything".

They have started redefining what "I have build this" actually means, and they have outjerked the executives by slinging outrageous value creation narratives.

> I’m chasing the midnight hour and not getting any sleep.

You are 60; go spend some time with your grand-kids, smell a flower, touch grass forget chasing anything at this age cause a Tuesday like the others things are gonna wrap up.

Absolutely sincerely.

While I understand that once one attains those short of connections, certain intelligence agencies will reach out offering lucrative opportunities for your co-operation.

Disgusting nature aside, I can't help but be amazed as to how someone can be so well connected. What sort of skills did Epstein have that managed to have so many people on speed dial?

How do you get in a position to correspond with presidents, royals, celebrities and getting them all hooked on you?

Amazing indeed.

First time I hear about this Kuycon, the pricing seems phenomenal and the quality as well. I will probably buy one by the end of the week.

It's odd that we don't get to see a lot of high quality OEM monitors.

How likely is it that those "protestors" are US and Israel propped and the plan is to do another regime change via this route?

Isn't this "son of the late Shah" a guy from the US?

> Don't give your "smart" TV internet access. It's that simple.

No it's not.

Am I supposed to counter every action taken by a conglomerate against me every time?

Do all the consumers have to align to this as well?

a TV must be a TV, in the same sense that orange juice must be made from oranges.

Looking forward to EU reining in on them.

Can you elaborate on this one? Hopefully with some citations.
