I really deeply wish they had attempted a profile that was 64mm wide folded and double unfolded. Height is less important. The whole advantage of having any screen at all when folded is something quick to access and *one handable*. Just loo

I agree with the sentiment and hopefully am using my last phone like that right now, but I’m also really hoping for very big advances for Linux phones before it comes time to upgrade. Right now they all seem to have serious drawbacks

When we are really thinking about something we do it forwards, backwards and middle out, and regenerate and distill many times. When we do meta thinking about that process after the fact, two things happen. 1, we change our total “thought”

One of the biggest strengths of a computer is reproducibility. The worst software bugs are inconsistent or non reproducible. The least useful calculators apply rules inconsistently, to your example. the inconsistency of LLMs is by far one o

Inherent principles exist in any really high resolution system that are so hard to control they can usually be tracked and manipulated but never completely controlled. It’s why cancer is so prevalent and damn near unsolvable: an organism ou

Not even remotely true, Idk how you can say this with a straight face after all we have seen in Trump 1 and Trump 2. Elected officials are basically the CEOs of each of these agencies, they have massive unilateral control and, apparently, c

Also NAL just legal-curious: Intent is a spectrum in our legal structure, with several checkpoints used at different points. It’s very reasonable to pick one of the lower ones for this kind of thing and I really don’t see why the legal syst

Yes, if your transaction contract redefines very common well understood words like “buy” it honestly should be nullified in the eyes of the law. It’s an inherently deceptive practice. Want to create new definitions for new words or phrases?

Stigma is just polarized now. Come out as trans on a platform like Facebook and you will get messages of support that would never have happened in the 90s, but also hate messages and reports to the police(that they will actually follow up o

Yes. Being weird now means either getting crushed into a fine paste by the machine or being squeezed into an empty crumpled husk for your valuable weirdness juices. There is no winning scenario left for weirdness

“Damage, difficult to measure” was not what was predicted 30 years ago. Satanic apocalyptic 40k dark elves society, blood orgies and lawlessness was much closer to the messaging. Literal actual Judaic apocalypse was a major risk.

The root problem is that all marketing copy is like this, generated by meat sacks or weight arrays. It’s all borderline nonsense.

You think they’re getting so much money from out current system that cutting out insurance companies would result in a 50% reduction in their pay? Have you ever looked up the size of the health insurance sector here?

Yeah the OP post read to me like someone throwing the baby out with three drops of bath water. If this was presented more like “minor gripes with risc V” I’m guessing I wouldn’t feel that way

Criminals with competence still operate in big numbers today, but LE very rarely targets them. The soft targets are just so abundant and easy, and the LE incentive system does not reward choosing hard targets at all. Doesn’t help that a big

Digital forensics examiner here; it’s extremely accurate especially for the tech involved at the time. I think I spotted a very small handful of things it had to kick under a rug for the plot to work, which is unbelievably small for a show

It’s nefarious by definition, because the actual full statement is > they’re tracking us to increase their profits, everything else be damned. Including your interests, your rights, the law, morality, and long term side effects. The last

Taking it fucking seriously as a nation and implementing any of the possible externality capture models in earnest. That means a rapidly scaling(5 year) decline in oil subsidizes to zero, a rapidly scaling ban on fossil fuel power (10 year)

The climate disaster costs are going to be so so much bigger than that unless our rates change. It’s easy to look at our $30000B gdp, even project that to 100k B into the future, and say “well we will eat the 2-10B costs”. There is no numbe

This is really embarrassing to write in public, to be frank. Weather and climate are not the same thing, they are several orders of magnitude different in scope. This is first grader information, typically. Predicting weather relies on metr

Like a lot of climate sized issues, the ozone hole was a rate based issue, In that our rate of “hole growing” was the real problem that needed addressing immediately. And the rates have MASSIVELY improved thanks to the global CFC actions. C

Thwaites mass loss rate is 500% what it was in 1990. 500%, that is 2026 study. It is accelerating very rapidly as well. I don’t give a damn, to be perfectly honest, what some sign posted god knows when with who knows what information, says.

Split batteries are also better for efficient space usage (depending on the chassis) and longevity.

It’s the only effective method and they basically refuse to do it. Which is a clear sign: the goal is not to “effectively and efficiently stop illegal immigration”. It’s to “cruelly and brutally punish illegal immigrants”. You will see some

This really is my big issue with the focus on “extremist, moderate, centrist, whatever”. I don’t care what the centrist or moderate opinion is. It’s been insanely wrong many times throughout history. (1939 German opinions on Jewish people.

LLM are so insanely terrible at this that I constantly have to moderate my prompts with “maybe this isn’t true” or “maybe I am misunderstanding this explanation” to get them to STOP crumbling into dust over the slightest pressure. That’s WI
