There was a reason - it was anti-nuclear hysteria fueled (hah) in large part by fossil-fuel interests and environmental groups that treated nuclear power as an existential threat rather than one of the safest, lowest-carbon energy sources a

Material wealth is only a single type of wealth. Who's better off - the rich guy who's always yearning to be richer and never satisfied, or the lower income guy that mostly just cares about time with his family and is really happy

By the time FF isn't a thing we'll have AI distilling site content for us and removing all the bullshit and there won't be anything site operators can do about it. And it'll use sandboxed browser instances that are immed

I strongly dislike this comment because it's the type of thing some anonynmous person can post online with no credibility or accountability and massively mischaracterize a situation to downplay the very awful things that people did to

This is immediately what came to mind to me. You can be extremely profitable but paying out tens of billions in dividends, or a million other things.

Or more likely, put regulations in place so the hardware can only run allowed models/allows surveillance of what's run. They're already doing stuff like this for 3D printers.

Exactly same. I've listened to basically every episode since 2008, and 95% of the time while falling asleep, one earbud in. As recently as literally last night. Not really paying attention, just listening to their voices.

And stops solitary confinement as a routine thing in prisons, which is literal torture. And stops death penalty. And provides basic healthcare instead of letting millions die.

It's horrible that there are 14 million children now in graves because of Elon Musk. He's literally worse than Hitler. I also don't understand how he spends all his time. SpaceX and Tesla are successful but Elon doesn't

Rent-seeking can be explained in a few different ways, but one of them is "extracting value without creating much new value" which is exactly what a lot of landlords do. Buy a house, rent it for more than the mortgage, and do as l

I'd settle for corporate jail time. No more profiting off illegal activity when the fine is less than profit. Nope, corporate jail. All operations have to stop for your sentence. No sales, no product development, no operations. Maybe a

They're saying you should be compensated and make income for the time it took you to form the business and hire employees. You shouldn't (in their theory) then continue to earn income off the labor of the people you hired - the in

What if you dump toxic waste into a river to make money, but volunteer 30-40 hours a week? Does it make the dumping less unethical? The point isn't about doing labor, it's about not profiting off of other's labor or rent-seek

I think they could have worded it better. I think they were saying that profiting from the labor of others is unethical. Using robots isn't unethical because you're not profiting from something that needs the income for itself. An

Any ballparks of what the hourly rate is you're aiming for? Sometimes with these international remote jobs it's hard to tell if it's a livable wage in the US.

My thought on this is that it's basically not legal to protect your home/family with force because of this. It's impossible to know if someone breaking in is a cop or not, and at 3AM with glass breaking and a group of people

How much did people on the board benefit from OpenAI going for-profit? Either directly by owning shares of the new for-profit, or knowing they eventually would, or by business connections to the new for-profit entity? I imagine most or all
