The difference between this machine and the ones that came before is that there won’t have to be a human in the loop to execute mass murder.

Militarize is just bad marketing. Call them cleaning machines and put them to work on dirty things.

These are going to be war machines, make absolutely no mistake about it. On-device autonomy is the perfect foil to escape centralized authority and accountability. There’s no human behind the drone to charge for war crimes. It’s what they’v

I feel such vindication in my disdain for this work, and the people who continue to automate human experience away. You are monsters who mistake luxury for bliss, money for agency, and power for love. I speak directly to the likes of Paul G

15 minutes a day at most, usually less, and I did not do any drills on slow words. Over time errors smoothed out.

Web browser engine, and OpenSSL (or equivalent) patches alone are the main concern in userspace. Those codebases are a constantly moving target. Look at the stream of CVEs and security patches that Apple publishes. Almost every bug affects

I really recommend MonkeyType. The UI is great, the stats are clear, and the modes are really elegant. https://monkeytype.com/ I used it daily like the author for about 6 months to improve from 80wpm to about 120wpm.

It’s like I summoned you! Just be honest about your incentives if you care to make these arguments. Then be prepared to answer the accountability question, for when the system inevitably fails.

Newark’s overworked controllers might argue differently. Of course in this forum the general suggestion will be to replace tired controllers with sleepless machines, and the technologists here have strong incentives to advocate for such sol

Ottawa has plenty of event spaces, poor direct airport routes though. I wouldn’t count out Calgary and Edmonton either.

Absolutism doesn’t tend to win long term, that’s fair, but I’m personally content to critique sama's ongoing lack of good actions and behaviour.

Never mind the fact that it shrunk or stagnated in value due to mismanagement for decades. Oil prices are low and you have a single buyer who hoses you already. Equalization transfers have cost $67 billion TOTAL since 1957. Less than a bill

Alberta _had_ a sovereign wealth fund. What happened to it? Equalization payments don’t explain of the collapse of the once huge fund. It sure didn’t buy much local diversification! You’d think Alberta would be more like Norway already then

There was plenty of opportunity for a sovereign wealth fund for decades within Alberta and for all of Canada. You’re saying now it’s only on the table that the filthy liberal coastal elites won’t be on the unfair dole? The unaccountable ext

Ask a hard question that you can’t answer by means conventional to you, like science or straightforward logic. Keep asking why until something bothers you. That discomfort is called philosophy. Some might call that psychology, but I think t

The perpetual existence of greed is not a good enough reason to structure all of society around that singular trait.

There are so many bigger concerns than this. AI won’t let you write good crime fiction because the guard rails will stop you from writing anything good. Be more concerned about the kinds of AI slop novels that won’t be written because of “s

Managers will be replaced by AI when people are willing to work for them. Does anyone really want that? Who the fuck wants to work for an unaccountable machine who you can’t grab a beer with after work? How much life are you willing to ab

You can argue plenty, like you’re doing right now. You’re doing yourself and your cause a disservice by being so black and white with your accusations. HN is chock full of people who agree with you. Go ahead and present compelling arguments

Lose your job, lose your children. Great policy ideas from the thoughtful HN crowd, as always.
