No, wait! The increased productivity will lead to a decoupling of the economy from resources consumption and GHGs emission. Just one more data center. /s
ghostty has tabs and splits for instance, alacritty is deliberately minimalistic
I have also lost all sense of pride in my work. As well as all interest in learning anything new related to software, knowing it'll be of zero value to me personally. For many of us our job has always been a craft,…
We know how to reduce accidents: lower the speed limit, improve infrastructure in urban areas, remove as many distractions as possible, including the big tactile screen every car has now for operating most of the…
Maybe learn to read comments. Less than a third of the population had running water at home in countries like France before WW2. In 1960 a quarter had a fridge. But sure, commoners had access to the kind of place…
Yes
I'm in-between two minds. On one end £9 of labour cost for a plate of asparagus seems deeply inefficient and unrealistic, particularly when the cost of ingredients that also include (hard) labour is £2. On the other,…
That's why we need and have diplomacy. Everyone is aware that violence is the ultimate option if an actor thinks there's an existential threat to deal with. If the consensus becomes that a 50+TFlops datacenter in the…
By threatening to nuke their datacenters and chip fabs, for instance.
You really come across as condescending and patronizing.
That's awesome, thanks for sharing.
Cool! I've been wondering for some time if a good low-distraction but pleasant environment could be an old Mac OS on a (good looking) Hackintosh. The UI was baked with UX research at least.
Same here, it has always been a state transition. There's always that snake showing up who forces everyone to watch their back and eventually disband. A tech coop seems like a good option, but it's almost exclusively…
Thanks for that sensible answer, had to scroll down quite a while to find you there. The real problem is that for many people it takes a while to realize you're being abused, in that case it was only a while after. I…
No they can't, it's dirt cheap because the social and environmental consequences aren't accounted for. Both the US and EU could have kept producing with higher standards on their land, they chose not to for profit.…
Not rebuilding, but at least not building more of it. But this exact mindset is why the US can't be helped and will be the last one to go low on carbon. The whole culture is built exclusively on unlimited space and…
It depends on what you mean by EVs really. There is an alternative to big electric individual cars, we've been building for 70 years car-centric urban areas for big vehicles doing 30km+ of commute every day. Good luck…
That's an awesome website! I had never heard of Patrick O'Brian before looking at your maps, I'll give The Mauritius Command a read.
Everything you wrote is plain obvious to anyone who looked into the topic. But come on, we don't have to change anything about our consumption because we'll eventually reach some solar punk utopia? That's the comment I…
Yes, but you're missing the point, I'm not debating that. Renewables aren't free, we should care about consumption just as much as production, and we don't know (yet) how to sustain the current consumption with…
Of course, but pretending consumption doesn't matter in that situation is just silly
Asia is producing all of our shit. Also: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/cumulative-co-emissions
It does matter because for now renewables are manufactured mostly with coal and oil EDIT: I'm not a renewable skeptic, answers bellow
You don't, pi with a codex subscription is great. Mario Zechner is on the opposite end of that AI hype spectrum. Until we can daily drive pi + qwen/glm/kimi.
I'm in the same boat, weirdly I can't find colleagues or friends who share my point of view. It's always the same "I can do higher level thinking now" or "no it can't do X". You nailed it with the output having no value…
