I think it's about the comment you wrote, or rather that AI (appears to have) written entirely.

In what world is 10x US GDP, 3-4x US Marketcap, or 60x the US annual tax collection the requirement for investor expectations?

I would ask, where is the line drawn between 'enjoyment and addiction.' Is it the harm provided? Then what do we count as harm, and where is the line. IE, There's no one stopping me from eating unhealthy, IE sugary foods, whi

I think the major issue is, people still have the option of those older forms of feeds, people just don't like them. New social media competitors (ie Tiktok) have won users by having even more powerful algorithms rather than other opti

You seem to be posting your project/startup constantly under others people's comments/posts.

Genuine question, did you put work into distribution so people knew about it first? I've known a bunch of people who have said 'blogging is dead' but that's often shared with a lack of sharing the work in the first place

Health isn't a 'perfect or your unhealthy' it's much more of a 'Make the better option, most of the time' in which, similar to the original comment, I am quite happy that the chocolate I can have a treat with h

Yeah but SMS is also a paid product in most places, same with phone calls, and data too, but given most places (Schools, your home, work, libraries) pay for wifi, platform provided messaging is free. Not that the addictive apps are great, b

Is it really that different from being locked into SMS or Email or Teamspeak or Skype? I hate using SMS, but I'm forced to due to people I know using it, and it's 'openness' changes nothing for me as the end user.

I haven't looked into this deep enough, but my assumptions are that currently the supplychain for getting and installing these systems takes much longer than coal, which is a much more mature supply chain, and also not limited to China

It's running a very small, non-reasoning model at the moment. But more generally, almost all LLMs argue on the hardware/model they are/are on.

I feel as if you missed their point. Their point from my understanding is, coal might be more expensive than new renewables/batteries, but it's significantly quicker to get up and running so if you have a choice between quick coal

Are you against Apple removing apps with dark patterns from the App Store because 'Everyone does it'? Adding requirements for apps to remain on the App Store is fully reasonable, and keens the ecosystem usable for users.

There are methods to do custom generation in of itself, so should be possible for AI to write a mod in the same vein as current world generation mods.

Linear is a 'work tracker' rather than bug tracker, and they're saying it's not a good enough indicator of tracking where things are at in the work cycle as there's too much abstraction

by shaewest 2mo ago
I think the issue with more fine grained task tracking, is that suddenly you're providing information to higher ups that might not directly understand why 'planning' takes so long, or testing. Right now they're given a &

Worth looking into 'Jevons Paradox' for more examples of this sort of thing. TL;DR is that as things become more efficient, whether coal, or programmers, the usage of a good increases as demand skyrockets for what it can be used f

In my org, it's grown the level of work. We had a lot of stuff that was never worth the devtime necessary, but now that's opened up that we can do a lot of this stuff in the background

If you look at it from the perspective of the current US administration, they see that almost all GDP growth in the past year(?) has been related to data center growth. If all of a sudden that industry is gone, you're looking at GDP st

The likelihood that MSFT wouldn't have a specific deal for UE is super low. But even in that case, I would imagine that costs for hiring a team to maintain an engine for the minimal games using IDTech's engine (Wolfenstein & D

I was arguing a 20x ARR valuation based on a simple 'potential' justification for $1T. If I was to go further into that, I'd say that Anthropic has grown from $9B ARR Dec 2025, to $47B at their Series H. I'd say that Ant

by shaewest 2mo ago
The companies don't necessarily need to make back $1T, the investors do, and those investors don't require $1T in profit to do so, they need an asset worth $1T. Considering leaks suggest Anthropic's ARR would be $47B, that&#x

This is where calisthenics comes into play. You can quite easily increase and decrease the leverage on the muscle to workup to the 'main exercise' and even past it. IE, for pull ups, you can hang under a table and do a 'horiz

The studies I've seen point to a reduce risk & mortality of diseases inclusive of cancer, not sure what you've been reading from.

And those limitations don't mean people can't exercise as a whole. As the list they provided explains, the goal is to find something you can do relatively consistently that gets you active. Walking even 5 minutes more than normal

I don't think you could say humans prefer a physical thing, as for a majority of mediums, digital is the winner, by a significant margin. Of my friends who own vinyl collections, they almost always use Spotify/Apple Music 90% of t

I wonder how much of it is training data. We can very easily get training data of 'human tasks' because humans can wear tracking suits, and those suits track bipedal movement. Anything we train off that isn't bipedal (ie dogs

On the aside, where's the difference between someone posting a Twitter link and an Economist link? Both are locked behind a wall, whether it account-wall or pay-wall.
