I'm not. Business operate in Texas. I never said that they don't. But major politicians are not making it part of their platform.
Texas politicians never run with clean energy as part of their platforms. They still run with oil as their main shtick. That doesn't mean that they don't let clean energy operate in their state, because they'd be silly…
I very much realize it. I know companies are doing it. But the angry responses to my comment shows that literacy is lacking in Texas because I said it's political suicide to run on it as a platform. Ken Paxton, who is…
To answer your question: Texas. Running on a platform of clean energy is political suicide in half of America, particularly in the south.
This is the real issue nobody else wants to address. Tastes have changed and genres have progressed. A few other old time devs have tried reboots of their games (a few point and click adventures, mostly) and they were…
That imaginary integrity never existed. If anything, favors for favors are now less common than they used to be.
Not sure why you're surprised. That's just how business/networking/capitalism works everywhere on earth and it's been like that since the dawn of civilization. And why would Congress stop is since they're all getting…
AI is trained on how people on the internet talk. The message just sounds like a pissed off dude whose style was copied by slopbots.
All hours humming is absolute torture and anyone who dismisses it has lived a very privileged life. Low humming penetrates walls, goes through ear plugs, and can be felt by the body. It carries for miles. It's…
Saying something is only bad if it's a crime is something only an employee of a corporation says. It's not a viewpoint. It's paid for. Very inorganic. People who claim those things always develop moral compasses when…
Turning oneself in doesn't absolve one of a crime. Never did and never will. Shouldn't, either. And companies always try to pretend someone out there is worse and garner fake sympathy. OpenAI blew up the memory market…
"But another company did some different bad thing" is the excuse employees of bad companies all go to immediately. Just because another person did something bad and hasn't been adequately punished doesn't mean you…
I don't assume it's trash. I know with absolute certainty. It's the same as seeing someone posting with one of those old NFT monkey avatars. You know they have nothing of value to say, and they're most often going to…
AI images are the antithesis of self expression. Self expression would involve some actual creation. I don't pick a book off a shelf and call it my own self expression. That's someone else's output. I also don't…
I've developed an internal heuristic that tells me people who think an AI image to fill some blank space in any way improves anything aren't saying anything of value. There's a strong likelihood they're just trying to…
You're free to test them. See what they do when you say "it's not deleted. It's just inaccessible until I cooperate." Because it's identical in their eyes. People who confidently say "the government can't do that"…
This is one of those things the other comment calling the law "non-autistic" is referring to. In the eyes of 99% of people, it's functionally the same thing. "Well teeeecccchhhhnicallyyyyyyyy I still have the data..."…
Japanese menus are increasingly full of AI pictures as well.
Your edit really illustrates what's wrong with all of this. We can't even get computers to reasonably assume what we're trying to say. But somehow the ultra rich have decided to devote all global resources to doing bad…
I think people are for surveillance under the presumption of it catching major criminals. But once it's introduced, they realize its main purpose isn't to nab murderers, but to punish them (the people who voted for it).…
Other countries have visas and don't require embassy visits. There's no difference between as ESTA and how other countries do visas.
They're identical but countries pretend they're different. I got an evisa when I went to Indonesia and India. For each country, the process involved uploading a picture, filling in some basic details, and paying a fee.…
Didn't expect to see this on HN, but it's definitely one of my favorite YouTube channels. Most food history content online feels like straight up readings from Wikipedia, but OTR does actual research and interviews. The…
The most impressive thing about Blender is how it feels like early 2000s-era creative software. And I mean that in a good way (blender was actually awful back then, but it's great now) It opens instantly on my computer.…
It seems the main use case is having Claude automatically write blogposts about how great using Claude is, then submit them wherever necessary. There's lots of news about the billions AI companies spend on data center…
