Chemistry would be a great space to explore. The last quarter of the 19th century had a ton of advancements in chemistry. It'd be interesting the see if an LLM could propose fruitful hypotheses, made predictions of the science of the

I’m glad it was blocked. Amazon gives law enforcement and ICE access to Ring camera footage. I have no doubt they’d eventually be letting cops spy inside our homes with these vacuum cleaners.

Software has been moving in the right direction. Tons of open source projects for every application imaginable. But hardware has gotten more closed. You can't replace batteries in phones, they get pre-loaded with state level spyware

If you care about your data privacy don't get this bed. There's really no good reason for it to phone home and tell the CEO (YC company), when you're sleeping, if you're sleeping with someone else, and when you're

Yup, the president just fired the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner when unfavorable jobs numbers were released. Blockchain does absolutely nothing to address this trust issue.

Increasing the supply of the high end market often occurs while simultaneously reducing the supply of the low end market. This happens when landlords renovate their buildings. So it's very possible that adding supply can limit price

0.2% should be about the correct rate. WeChat in China has zero transaction fee in the system and a 0.1% fee on withdrawals. Visa/MasterCard amounts to a private tax on the economy. Unfortunately I don't see this changing anyti

I'm not sure the economics of big budget TV series work anymore unless you catch lightning in a bottle so I understand them cutting prod costs. YouTube's economics are just so much better. YT provides no up front payment for cont

There were some enterprises that refused to send any data to OpenAI, despite assurances that that data would not be logged. Looks like they've been vindicated in keeping everything on prem via self-hosted LLM models.

Now would be a good time to have a functional FTC commissioner. Doing a bait and switch like on a product that was sold with a set of features should be illegal. If I buy a car and the sales guy stops by my house the next day to take back

Almost every big creator has sponsors in their video. This is the biggest source of revenue for large creators. Mark my words, Google will be shaking creators down for a cut of direct sponsorship money at some point.

TurboTax makes a lot of profit. This a perfect example of what should be a government service being privatized. That model will be replicated.

Many Republicans don't realize this. The party you've voted for all your life is not the same party running America today. Today's Republican party has been co-opted by an Anarcho-capitalist wing. And step 1, which they&#x

German manufacturing has also been down 15% compared to 2018 so this is mostly a reflection of reduced economic output. Between the nuclear shutdowns and the disruption of Russian energy sources, German manufacturing has been in a crisis t

For someone who interviews experts across a wide variety of disciplines (I've watched military professors, anthropologists, AI experts on his channel), I'd say Dwarkesh does a pretty damn good job. His interview with the Naval Wa

The scenario I described is to ensure the whistleblower being alive or dead has minimal change in impact to the company. If there's a pending case that could wipe billions off a company's market cap and 1 person is a key witness
