I use Powershell a fair bit, Powershell is not good. I can see why people delude themselves into thinking its good: it does in fact let you administer systems, and it lets you avoid the pitfalls of stringly-typed…
I could maybe see a major movie studio buying one or two, but I think the major problem with the stunt functionality is not so much making the vehicle, its finding a building/structure where it is safe to hang a…
Its about the same consumption as a large chemical plant.
There's also a lot of folks out there with no sense of scale getting "dihydrogen-monoxieded" by scaremongering tactics like measuring power consumption in number of atomic bombs.
So I also love Tcl, but I think it would have not been great as a web language. I think the small amount of type information we can pass via json is just about right, and tcl would have made it impossible. You cannot…
I love the non-commercial clauses because of how many people are using these for deceptive ads and “virtual staging” and fake social media accounts. Anything that makes those guys lives harder while still letting me…
Pion is going to get scammed, and it will be funny to watch.
Spoken like someone with a somewhat limited understanding of what it actually takes to calculate the fitness function of arbitrary organisms in an arbitrary environments.
I think the central premise looks more like this: Biology has been trying to grey-goo the world for billions of years, but it turns out the world is not something so trivial. He is pushing back against the folks with…
The next questions in my head are: A) Is there any performance penalty on the compiled result due to being optimized in separate pieces B) If not, why isn't the optimizer smart enough to split them up internally and…
To anyone who loves these, add this to your playlist: Otis Gibbs - Great American Roadside
The most obvious one is the "god of the gaps" problem now applied to intelligence. If you look at things like Aquinas' Summa Theologiae [1] you'll see that there are explicit assertions that things like rationality…
The benchmark I want to see people adopt is: Build a flowsheet based steady state chemical process simulator, then use it to simulate and optimize a full scale oil refinery. 1) Building a solver engine that works at…
As someone with a hobby interest in theology: Arguments about super-intelligent AI have all the hallmarks of the philosophical "proofs of god's existence": they start from seemingly innocuous premises, and conclude in…
Golf courses do pollute: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle... Also, the "pollution" from data centers is just "major construction project temporarily disrupts water table" not "facility is…
Look, you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. Either water consumption is a problem today, or it is not. If it is a problem, then golf courses are today a better target for people who want to solve the water…
I've not seen a single politician calling for statewide bans on golf courses. Its pretty obvious here that people decided datacenters were bad first, then went looking for justifications second.
If people really cared about water usage, they'd be trying to shut down golf courses instead of data centers.
A lot of the anti-data-center rhetoric is "windmills kill birds" or "dihydrogen monoxide" style fearmongering, not an actual debate.
My money is on "someone higher up the chain of command got pinged for low T, and decided that the tests were bullshit".
But the article explicitly says that people did know what they were consuming. They bought poison honey, they got poison honey, they ate poison honey, and they got poisoned. Now you can certainly argue we should make…
I think to unabashedly declare that you know what someone does or does not deserve requires just as much if not more faith.

I would like to point out that the last year when not a single law enforcement agency anywhere in the world could have possibly tapped anyone's phone was 1876. 150 years ago was the invention of the telephone, and I…
I feel like this is the exact opposite of the conclusion I've been coming to. In an age where anyone can vibe code stuff at the drop of a hat, I want the ability to assert guarantees/contracts at a high level, and then…
