It's because ignoring rights happens faster than they can be protected. Move fast enough with sufficent scale and you can eliminate peoples ability to protect their own rights before they even realise they are under threat. Sometimes f

Not even close chief. Earth has been a rich, life sustaining planet in far hotter conditions then anything we are projected to take it to. We can kill billions of ourselves, but short of ww3 earth will crack on just fine. Social media emoti

At one point we considered adding artifical delay to responses because irrational users dont trust something that finishes fast, even if its the same quality. How empirical are your comparisons of new and old outputs?

Because i would rather solve the problems close to home, the problems involving those billionaires. Im not going to put effort into turning those other people in another country into a new cash crop for billionaires.

Their needs are met. They are turning to racism because of their wants and fears.

And if you are any kind of strategic thinker when faced with that problem, you will do two things 1. Invest in propaganda to ensure the US becomes hostile to immigrants. 2. Invest in opening yourself up to immigration. China is openly doing

Its a really interesting question. Lets take it to its farthest extent: can you take a picture of a black hole?

Or a life where everyone operates in absolutes, with no shades of grey allowed. Zero reflection and total constant analysis paralysis are both non viable.

Or the value of everything non ai drops to zero, which makes the value of ai infinite by comparison.

It's not about blindly accepting autogenerated code. Its using them for tooling integration. Its like terminal autocomplete on steroids. Everything around the code is blazing fast.

The majority of obese people want to be thin, but will die obese anyway. Just wanting something that requires a significant overhaul of how you do things, is not enough.

If this reduces error rates to below those of a human, then that's an acceptable approach. Unless you think humans code reviewing humans is pointless because errors sometimes still slip through?

Pass. Im glad not to be confined by historical rules invented by people who could not hope to predict the future, and would not choose to put that kind of burden on my descendents.

I'm one of those people who is happier when spending some time in the office each week and have said that when surveyed. Don't assume survey results that run counter to your anecdotal experience have been fabricated.

Depends what else it's solving for. I've seen multiple issues solved like this after engineering teams have been cut to the bone. If the cost of maintaining enough engineers to keep systems stable for more than 24 hours, is more t

The us system is what a free market approach inevitably degrades into when consumers don't have a real option to say no to a service.
