I’m not making anything up any more than you are. Neither of us was there. My point: you don’t get YC funding unless you have a disruptive business idea. “Cameras, but to a niche HOA market” is not that.

If the they didn't pitch the massive surveillance and data capturing aspects they wouldn’t have got the funding.

This is what I’m not getting - we’re spending more than the global gross sales of all software on the planet on AI, how much more software needs to be sold and for how much more to recoup?

This resonates. Problem is, as time goes on, even in the hobby coding communities, all the of the tools you use - emulators, toolchain, utilities, code examples - the whole ecosystem will be developed using AI. At that point are you really

It was also illegal to export software with cryptography in the early 90s, anything with keys bigger than 40 bits, so there was a lot of intentionally weak connections.

Yes but somehow conventional wisdom is that leaning right is a vote for “fiscal responsibility” and the economy, a misconception that the left needs to deal with.

But the right wing is demonstrably indistinguishable from left at making good economies. Same thing in the US.

If there are predictable patterns w/r to the implementation that is something a good lawyer would tell you, albeit in couched terms.

I swear sometimes people get so offended by something they stop thinking. It doesn't have to be all or nothing, you know? Like, you can acknowledge that these are two separate and independent organizations while also having the opinion

They are independent organizations with separate funding.

I think if you re-read my comment we are basically in agreement, I just think if we continue on the current trajectory of not holding people accountable, it will spread to both parties. Ask yourself this, in a two party system, how bad woul

If you look back at this thread, I’m not suggesting anyone should do anything, I’m pointing out the piousness of people suggesting we aren’t doing enough when they themselves have more they could do. Also, having fewer children absolutely w

A) I’m not a millennial. B) I have kids. C) I used that as one of several sacrifices that can be made to reduce carbon footprint. I would say it is more valid than “being vegan” since that alone may or may not help. Everyone is very ready t

I’m guessing the things you listed are the sacrifices /you/ are willing to make but omit the ones you are not willing to make. Do you travel by plane? Do you use AI? Do you have kids? Do you own a car? Etc etc.

You are partially right. We used to collectively throw people out when they were exposed as corrupt. Now it works like this: Republicans get called out by Democrats, Democrats get called out by Republicans and Democrats. And if that goes on

“Source please” … “I don’t like your source” Always with you people. In 2020 he personally called state election officials asking them to find votes /in his own election/ but that doesn’t worry you either. Always bad faith, always

There is a reference to this in For Whom the Bell Tolls: “ Robert Jordan, wiping out the stew bowl with bread, explained how the income tax and inheritance tax worked. 'But the big estates remain. Also, there are taxes on the land,&#x2

Snakes and Ladders is about learning social skills. That’s why who wins is random, it gives kids an experience at both. If you want to play a fun game, play something else.
