Resetting Xbox 16 days ago

This is great news for gaming. Xbox, which has ruined Halo, Gears of War, Mass Effect, and countless other IPs, needs to be burnt to the ground.

Private enterprise is vastly more competitive than public institutions in every single facet of society. Defund all public science funding so we can have another 50 SpaceXs.

The current advancement of technology and warfare has opened up fascinating opportunities for powerful nations (USA). For example, given the extremely sophisticated targeting capacities of Palantir, how out of realm would taking out the entire Castro family be? I'm not talking about the morality, but simply the military options now available to the President.

If highly targeted/tailored LLM ads on free accounts aren’t good enough for HN, are any ads acceptable?

Let’s be reasonable.

Like I said, as it currently stands the evidence is 5,000 with Sam and like 5-15 against him (from the article).

We can theorize on motivations all day, but since the hitpiece didn't bother contacting any 'pro Sam' employees, it's a moot point.

Disappointed the article doesn't transmission of electricity and how little the loss is. People are quite surprised that it's like 3.5% per 1000 km.

We could just build out huge solar farms in AZ and transmit it accordingly. We did it for railroads, why not here?

This isn't a military decision but more a public opinion one. Should an American ship take a hit, have casualties, become disabled, etc it would put immense pressure on the administration to settle/end the war, even though on a military objective level it makes a lot of sense. This is a reality of the instant informational world we live in.

I didn't compare to that level, just had it create a plan first then implemented it.

Anecdotal, but it 1 shot fixed a UI bug that neither Opus 4.5/Codex 5.2-high could fix.

I see this as an energy problem. We have 'unlimited' water from the Oceans, and distillation technology exists, it's just not economically viable (enough) because of the high energy costs of distillation. Elon's solution to this is solar panels everywhere, since they're so incredibly scalable (imagine an automated solar factory). Hopefully this comes to fruition sooner rather than later.

The Wikipedia "reliability" list shows wild, almost laughable biases.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Per...

Surely people don't think sources such as Mother Jones are more 'reliable' than The New York Post, Fox News, or The Heritage Foundation? Not a coincidence there.

Having such obvious biases does nothing but damage the Wikipedia brand, and at this point has me anticipating Ai replacements.

Filtering content for children is not 'banning books'.

By this definition, The Bible is the most "banned book" across the country, even though it's probably the most consequential piece of literature ever written.

This continuous doublespeak is even more humorous considering the site has actual shopping links to every 'banned book'.

The question to ask is why supply of energy hasn't kept up with demand. Regulations (primarily in Democratic states) is most likely the answer. When you use government incentives to pick winners and losers with energy sources, it throws the entire energy market out of sync.

- ChatGPT still lags for me daily and I'm on a PRO subscription. - SORA is usable but extremely slow and constrained. - Image gen same thing, but getting a bit quicker and less constrained.

This is with agents not having taken off yet, and the vast portion of the world economy not interacting with LLM Ai? Agents alone will require ungodly amounts of compute.
