A Canadian friend brought me back 2 bottles of local maple syrup as a gift. Ok, I'm a pretentious Frenchman when it comes to food and I do think most North Americans have no idea how real food tastes. But that stuff, I didn't know

Social credit score affects all your actions as a citizen, and can restrict your liberty as a citizen. E.G: a cop don't like you because you sleep with his sister, they charge you on false pretense, and now your internet is more restri

I'm not American, and my answer solely focuses on the fact the social credit score is the most dystopian thing ever created by modern dictatorship. Which is an answer to guy saying people idealize china these days, thanks to effective

Not social credit score, this is something different.

I'm not American. And the discussion is about the credit score system. We were discussing cancer, and instead of talking about it, you tried to avoid saying bad things about it and answered "isn't diabetes bad as well?".

They are probably people, paid for it. The comment are too well made. But also some are just real people from HN that are the worst kind of dumb : uneducated but smart, so they think their opinion is valid. This is where the "history a

No, the social credit system can restrict your basic freedom, including the freedom of moving, without a judge being involved. The fact you are casually talking about it is infuriating. It's like taking about the yellow star and stay &

Feels like its the same poeple saying locked down OS stores are great because security and chrome engine in all browser is fantastic because then everything is standardized. But worse because here we are talking deep human topics. Such long

That's how the new 1927 starts. It will be in the history books.

First, let's acknowledge that when the actions of some people lead to endangering a human life, it's natural to be angry about it. Personally, when anger is justified, I feel more comfortable with people who clearly and openly exp

Until they learn to do that. So cat and mouse. So nothing new.

If you know happy rich people that don't have a job, you got your counter example, and one is enough. I do. People usually need to have a purpose, but it doesn't need to be a job.

That's a different issue than OP's superlative claims and is something we as a society need to be working on. But it's not AI related, it's true every time the eich and powerful privatize benefits while making the costs

I still haven't seen anybody demonstrating we have to do such thing. We do have to spent a bit of each for any new tech advancement, but the alarmist, disproportionate claim you make is really not helping. ArcelorMittal Dunkirk rolling

It's actually fantastic for job interviews. Use that trick with my clients when asked to review candidates.

I think the opposite. Automation and scale made it possible to cheaply influence way more people. Information bubbles mean people are more convinced than ever. Before you had one big influencer, usually the state, manipulating the news of y

Maybe as often, the laws is just a pretext for this little nuget. They innovate for once, not using terrorists or pedophiles, nobody checked.

True, but none of the action of Meta under his direction points to having changed in any way. If anything, he doubled down.

Yes. But there are things you say as a young person that are revealing of core personality traits. Most people would just not say that.

You have much less control over what the government does than choosing your job. I have rejected job offers from both facebook and google. If FAANGS want you, you have the choice of employers. And you chose.

Meta is a scourge of a company. You literally work for a guy who, talking about the user data he dubiously acquired, that said "they trust me, dumb fucks". It's hard to feel sorry for workers who chose that road, the writing

With solar sometimes producing a lot of energy when you don't need it or can't store it, having a cheap hardware to produce hydrogen from it is quite nice. Natural gaz may be cheap, but you can't beat free. For this setup, th

Does each playwright (or similar automation system) count as a different user, and does it keep the model around ? If yes, it's an interesting API to call when a AI crawler hit your website.

Do you see a changing trend in number applications, accepted ones or visa cancellations ?

Tangential, but LLT recently came out with their own lineup of USB-C cables guaranteed to be up to spec. And they have the main specs printed on each cable end, so you know what you grab. That should be mandatory.

Reproducibility doesn't mean good. I can make bad coffee every time myself by putting 2 spoons of vinegar in it.
