I wouldn't believe that claim either if there is no archeological evidence, but I'm wondering why there isn't actually some civilization that walked by, said "this shit is cool", and built a city there. If I was an…
Kinda wonder why ancient people didn't look at that and turn it into a massive amphitheatre or a mythical city.
AI quant trading. 1. I'm so tired of this wretched economy and want to be done with working for money. I want to work only because I feel something is worthwhile doing. If a mananger tells me to do something I don't…
In food contexts when I see "artisinal" I usually just think of rich white people buying the same stuff in nicer packaging and typography for twice the price. The actual artisans don't need to advertise themselves as…
> the Java OSM editor app Java? No thanks. I don't want that monstrosity of system-hogging, clunk, slow, 1990's UIs on my system again.
Just delete the prompt in the DOM inspector and you don't actually have to agree to it.
You will never get explicit permission unless you have connections. So until that kind of beaurocracy changes, this is the kind of thing you just go ahead and do. Life is short, assuming it is fully non-destructive and…
I don't keep assets in USD. I also don't think civilization collapse is the same as an economic collapse. In fact I don't think we'll have a long term economic collapse, but the new economy will be run by AI and will be…
I have a few of those too. My laser cutter needs one. I've seen lots of "expensive equipment" use USB A-to-A cables, for some odd reason.
Was that supposed to be an insult? Maybe I am a coward. What do you want to do about it?

I tried to look for hidden rock art at Ankgor Wat by imaging with multiple bandpass filters and amplifying cross-spectral differences. I didn't succeed, but maybe I was in the wrong place. The shit guards there also…

Money is useful to weather the storm and relocate myself and my family to somewhere less affected by AI, or possibly have some minimal influence over redirection of resources in an AI-controlled future world. It's just…

I'm an AI engineer, I feel similarly. I also feel a need to amass retirement levels of wealth right ASAP before this all comes crashing down, and then move to somewhere else away from this mess. The only good way for me…

As understood by general relativity, it actually is. There is no absolute time. You can say the age of the universe is 14 billion years, but that's in our reference frame. In another reference frame it may be a…

I used to think "I should be nice to merchants" and pay everything in cash. That was 15 years ago. Now, living costs have gone up, I'm getting taxed to death by not just governments but increasingly more by businesses…
I don't understand this eSIM only trend. eSIM sucks for switching your service between devices or for travelling to countries where eSIM isn't a thing yet.
And it deserves an honest answer.
