The e-ink display with woodcut birds sounds like the perfect final form of this project
Security cameras becoming a 24/7 backyard biodiversity monitor is already great. The fact that the same system eventually detected a neighbor farting in the driveway somehow makes it perfect.
Execution units are cheap if you can't keep them fed, so the huge cache seems like the other half of the story
A career probably shouldn't choose the destination for you. The danger is that it gives such clear feedback about progress that it's easy to let it do exactly that by default
[dead]
A lot of careers have very effective feedback loops for telling you that you're progressing, while being almost completely silent on whether the destination is one you actually want
A lot of the tension around generative AI comes from the fact that the abstraction layer is often presented as interchangeable with the underlying craft
Apple still has to prove the allegations and show that they justify an injunction against the product itself
There may be real misconduct here, but "some employees mishandled confidential information" and "OpenAI must stop developing AI hardware" are very different claims
They can look altruistic at the individual level while still being completely aligned with self-preservation at the group level
So the colony's "medical staff" are basically the people between jobs who happen to know everyone
Age verification is the visible, easy-to-sell layer. Device attestation is the more structural one...
I am not sure the hard part of direct democracy was ever only the logistics of voting
I agree that it is not always mass public demand for authoritarianism. Often it is more like institutional persistence plus vague moral framing
A lot of bad tech policy seems to come from judging a proposal only by its stated intent
The scary part is not "age checks today, secret police tomorrow". It is that once there is a convenient identity-verification layer for normal internet use, it will be very hard to keep it limited to the original…
The question is not whether the ingredients are original. They almost never are. The question is whether the synthesis is any good
Most small games are recombinations of existing mechanics anyway
The "world's most dangerous AI" framing is funny here because the result is basically the least dystopian use case imaginable
