Shouldnt the product speak for itself? Why do you need to buy a press team. I mean litteraly, with all the AI podcasts out there just get it to do it. It was going to take all our jobs anyways or something.

Are you actually EU? You know we are not one homogeneous state right? There are currently 27 nations, in which policy and circumstance varies between even at a regional level. There is immense poverty in some nations, notably Spain or Italy

I blame infiltration by bots slowly shifting the Overton window. Did this site not get "weird" in the last few years? Not to think to highly of ourselves, I for one am a genuine idiot, but the crowed here likely has more influence

Sounds like hot air, Wolfram style. Making an intellectual smart sounding argument out of something that is well simple. Version control is version control , a hammer is a hammer. What style you choose depends on the situation, right now gi

I disagree. I limit the screen time of my kids to 20 min per day. I only allow them also to view certain content that is not too stimulating, just educational stuff. The kids do want to talk about the stuff they see and play out what they s

Serious question, Do we need another type checker in Python? I've never really felt the existing options were lacking for our use case. Completely fair game if this was just a passion project, but at this point at best this feels like

laws of physics still apply. Car still takes time to slow down, even with perfect reaction times. Well, maybe you could get it to stop in time, but it might break the necks of everyone in the car.

Given how hidden children are walking in front of the bus, if the AI instantly applied breaks upon seeing the child, would the car slowdown in time? probably not. Better yes, good enough? no.

So Waymo should go relatively unpunished? Sure the laws might be draconian, but at least apply them evenly, or change them for everyone.

I disagree, high degrees of wealth inequality result in manipulation of our society to act against the best interest of the common man. Unfortunately, this article seems to be more inline with quantization for the sake of navel gazing.

Two factors here. 1) "Tech bro" AI hype in keynotes and online forums is annoying. It usually contains a degree of embellishment and drama; kinda feels like reality TV but for software developers. Instead of Hollywood socialites,

The article is misleading, and well propaganda. The official national statistical institute of Norway tracks wealth tax revenues per year. From 2022 to 2023, revenues moderately increased from around NOK 26 billion to NOK 29 billion.
