Are you saying that because it’s across company boundaries? Or would you be similarly upset if one result was for a Toyota Highlander? Or for a Toyota RAV4 XSE but not the LE trim I gotta say, I think you’re in the minority. I suspect most

What would an EV muscle car look like? Tesla Model 3 seems to check a lot of boxes. Definitely not noise or muscle car power delivery, but those seems like unrealistic goals for an EV

Truly appreciate the perspective. Any pointers to previous work on dealing with stochastic systems from the past? Part of my work is securing AI workloads, and it seems like losing determinism throws out a lot of assumptions in previously

I read the full article (really resonated with it, fwiw), and I'm struggling to understand the issues you're describing. > Yes of course relationship questions don’t have a “correct” answer. But physics questions do. Code vulne

Framing is everything, though. See complaints around Tesla pricing for the same battery hardware with different software.

I think they agree with you. Did you read the second paragraph?

You’re implying any real system can have a single top priority, which is equally false. There are always multiple priorities, and the one sitting at the top changes based on the context

Do you think Iran will have nukes in the near (20 years, just to put a number) term? Your position really only makes sense if that's not the case. By whatever means, the goal now seems to be to prevent that. > I don't think w

I think this downplays the security issue. It's true that scoping the token correctly would prevent this exploit, but it's not a reasonable solution under the assumptions that are taken by the designers of MCP. LLM+MCP is intend

Odd. Your take is the one I see most common on HN. My experience has been that Reddit has gone mainstream and most people find it quite valuable

> being aware of that is crucial in having the right perspective on inventors. Can you go a step further on why the right perspective here is important? Feels like you’re telling a kid Santa Claus doesn’t exist. Why kill the magic?

Maybe a raindrop? Anyone else cheer for raindrop races as a kid on long drives? An apple falling on to Newton's head. Fun to think about!

This makes a lot of sense to me. As an individual, how do I help move along the transition to smaller communities? The answer cannot be ‘you can’t’. Certainly what you said resonates with a fair number of people, and it only takes a small

I think the trouble is that most teams don’t need this level of performance. They don’t need the top .0001%. Those teams are the edge cases not even worth talking about. And more importantly, not the ones you want to model your team after.

Some qualifiers would be helpful to engage with you. Certainly threat of punishment shouldn’t be the only motivator in a healthy society, but it probably needs to be one.

There's a difference between saying "there are more important things (to you) to put your energy towards" and "the lab leak theory is wrong, stop talking about it" The former is reasonable, the latter is not (assumi

I don’t know, I think that might be a bias of some kind. The free shortcuts are obvious and so the alternative sounds ridiculous. No one claims to be a genius when they save time by driving instead of walking. But at the margin, of course

I think that was a typo and they meant 22 + 47, which equals ~70 Ohms

Note that tolerance and uncertainty are different. Tolerance is a contract provided by the seller that a given resistor is within a specific range. Uncertainty is due to your imprecise measuring device (as they all are in practice). You c

I’ve only ever seen “this ^” refer to the parent comment, not the one directly above it as you mention. So as long as the comment hierarchy is maintained (which it is on HN) then the reference is clear

That one doesn’t quite work for me. A thermostat has a purpose: keep a temperature. An ocean doesn’t really have a purpose.

Yea! I thought along the same lines, but I wasn't sure how to write it out. If X is on a spectrum, and Y is removed, it's closer to not-Y. Edit, eh your explanation probably explains it better anyway :)
