I have the opposite gut feeling about LLM's; I think they're going to break down the barriers to adopting new programming languages, since they'll lower the cost of porting code dramatically. The code in a language's…
It's good that you repented and at least tried to do something good with the money, but it would have been even better to donate it to an environmental organization with better judgement than you have. Proof of work…
I mean, not everyone spent their decade on distributed computing. Some devs with a retrogrouch inclination kept writing single threaded code in native languages on a single node. Single core clock speed stagnated, but…
Did you read the article? The section about "alarmists" and "troublemakers" is directly relevant to your take on the use of the word "Nazi". Some people have been calling Musk a Nazi for what, a decade? They sounded…
I put whipped soy milk on my vegan homemade pumpkin pie last night and it was great. Do not miss dairy, and am thankful for modern food innovations that are helping us get past the suffering and environmental…
No mention of how cruise ships are essentially entire cities powered by fossil fuels that dump their waste directly into the ocean?
Grapes are for luddites! Seriously though, my grapes are so reliable at cropping compared to tomato plants I think it would be more interesting to engineer grapes to be tomato-like.
I've got 99 reasons to be vegan, but shark extinction... is yet another one.
You can probably find an IDE plugin that inlines the assembly for a c function. Most ids can show the assembly side by side with your c code so it wouldn't be that much of a step. To fulfill your vision you would also…
There actually is such a thing as reversible computing(?) that keeps around enough intermediate values to run the code backwards to the inputs. Not sure what it is actually good for. Not to be confused with time travel…
Are your discerning charcuterie board lovers open to new flavors, or are they going to demand 1:1 indistinguishable replicas of specific dairy cheeses? My favorite locally produced moldy nut cheese (Omage) does not have…
These currently burn leaded gas. This company is building machines that will barf lead into the air you breathe and onto the crops you eat.
Poor, persecuted, POTUS? He led an attack on the capitol to try to overturn his loss in the election. The "meaningless political prosecutions" you refer to is the legal system failing to function at a basic level and…
3M highest level protection earmuffs are great. Electronic noise cancellation is a silly gimmick IMO.
Same. This is about meat, although since a lot of our land is used to grow feed for livestock, subsidies for plant agriculture are indirectly subsidizing inefficient animal agriculture.
IIRC you're really not suppose to do this. A pressurized pressure cooker is not something you want to drop accidentally.
It's not just the convenience. Pressure cookers are way more energy efficient than boiling a big pot of food on an electric stove. If you're using an electric air conditioner to re-extract that heat from your house, the…
Some founders are legitimately in it for the long haul and treat working for the company they founded as their career. I don't know how common they are, but I was lucky to work for one for about a decade.
I have had to learn to make do without cut and paste it's so flakey in Reddit. I gave up on editing posts before hitting send.
Tesla's cars (and private automobiles in general) are not a compelling vision, they're toys for rich people. I looked it up. About a million Teslas have ever been manufactured. Round the population to a power of 10...…
You're being sarcastic, but it sounds like you agree with the authors about the situation we're in, and the desirability of building the sustainable utopia ~before we're forced to shut down our civilization and die off.
We need a president to declare transitioning of fossil fuels to be a national emergency and also a matter of national defense, and set the military industrial complex to work actually building a sustainable supply chain…
Electric and hydrogen fueled airplanes are progressing. There are also futuristic ideas about powering the planes with ground or space based lasers powered by solar. Zeppelins still scale really well, and ships can use…
I also feel that not building world-destroying robots should be something we should be able to reach consensus on. My current favorite world-destroying robot photo is from the battle of Lutzerath:…
If your grocery doesn't have locally produced, affordable, delicious vegan junk food by now you should be pissed off at the people producing your food and demand better.
