we need to shine a light on evil and wrongdoers globally and imprison them

bro you need to turn of your computer. what the heck are you concerning yourself with here actually? Look outside your window, THAT is your TRUE reality. (as an exercise point your finger at anyone who you want imprison...).

Those, who are endlessly shouting at each other on Twitter etc., arguing with AI bots, addicted to things irrelevant to their lifes ... are just lost. Don't be one of them. Tune out and focus on things that actually matter to you.

Not my cup of tea personally, but I recommend watching his interview with Lex Fridman for some behind the scenes insight. He comes across as incredible smart and knows exactly what he's doing. Also not afraid to re-invest millions of dollars into producing these videos. Obviously it's very much a for-profit endeavour. Not sure, don't think he's fooling anyone and his accomplishments deserve at least some respect I think.

Some of it will undoubtly be super useful. Things like:

- Proofread button in mail.

- ChatGPT will be available in Apple’s systemwide Writing Tools in macOS

I expect once you'll get used to it, it'll be hard to go without it.

Hope they can deliver. Right now Apple hardware is silly compared to PC+Nvidia if you wanna play around with GenAI. Both in price and performance. Worst case macs end up as thin-clients, all AI running on Nvidia in the cloud. Would eat into their competive advantage a lot I think.

RIP my friend. Good thing you found the energy to warn us before dieing. By the way, your first sentence is missing a verb. Your second sentence is missing the word "way". Your third sentence should end with a period and the first word should be capitalized. I hope you can still use your last breaths to correct these mistakes. We must give our everything to avoid further casulties in future generations.

Orderly, rational people. Hard working, rich country, despite no natural wealth. No cutting corners, one of the reasons bureaucracy is so horrid. You are expected to have your shit together, still people are as lenient as they can be. Things work, you can trust people. Low crime, clean streets. Good sense of morality. Country is capable of much more, still holds itself back a lot, preference in humbleness. Things are built on solid foundations. Not a bad place to be.

The biggest pitfall is DRY imho. Write generic code, reuse abstractions. It's the most elegant way. Except it always tends to lead to these god classes, super systems, that try to be most flexible and to do everything. Then comes the point where it becomes impossible to understand all the interactions and half of your codebase falls apart if anything changes. All because you were to proud to copy & paste a few lines like it's a deadly sin.

Man I feel for the artists. Seen a lot of outcry among people I've worked with too. It just seems so unfair. Like what are we doing? We automated away one of the most pleasing, satisfing and skill intensive endeavours humans can undertake. A dreadful reality we'll probably have coming to our jobs soon enough too.

Bitter truth is though, it's not going away. The genie is out of the bottle, and if you are a talented artist, you absolutly need to embrace AI. If you take a look at DeviantArt AI section for example you'll see: The bar has been raised. It's masterpiece next to masterpiece now. Talented artists + AI = Simply stunning work.

It feels heartless, but what can we do, will you be able to stay competive without AI? It feels you'll be just hampering yourself for idealistics reasons.

No mate, people value themselves and get the best thing they can have. Smartphones are so essential now and used 24/7, don't cheap out on it. You don't cheap out on food either. Nothing to do with status. Not all about Apple either, there are nice premium Android phones as well. What are you doing, saving for a golden tombstone?

Dear Aliens 3 years ago

Dear human. We know. All of it. Always have. The things you are concerned about are not yours to solve. Why are you asking for an energy source, do you not have enough energy, how are you writing your blog? Don't be silly. You want better propulsion fuels? That is what you came here to ask for? Or maybe your problem is that you have none?

Ugh harsh piece. Yeah you can argue fundamentally there's no deeper meaning to traveling then to entertain the traveler. That it is selfish and to the detriment of others. Certainly not completely untrue, but what a inhumane spin on the topic. This is nihilistic way of thinking.

Not bad at all. CCP is handling the game well, modernizing the client, UI etc. It's in a pretty good state. But it's also not so much different from what it was 10 years ago. Playing extremly casual these days though, maybe once a week I log in and do a site or something. It's just so relaxing, almost zen, worth the subscription for me. Happy this is still going.

Air Pods Max. Totally worth it. Automatically turns on/off, automatically pairs with the device you're using. Active Noise Cancellation is a godsend, i.e. if you have people with lawnmowers around you, this will improve your life more than anything else you can buy. Effortless to clean. Ear cushions come off and you can just put them into the washing machine. Great build quality, has a nice volume dial with click sounds. Build-in microphones. Sound is top notch too.

This is so sad honestly. Like wtf is going on, no apology, no good will, doubling down on the complete moral suicide of Reddit. To push an app no-one ever liked, you know that, but whatever. No-one likes “new” Reddit either, you know that, but whatever. Who’s even gonna use the site after this? Social media zombie sheeple is all that's going to be left. Congrats on your dumb little site, from the front-page of the Internet, to the rear end of the internet. You killed your babies, man. Antagonising your most loyal users, for what? Bit of cash? Are you guys starving or what??

Man idk. I hope San Francisco is doing good. This is supposed to be the city of hippies and love, but lately not so much good news coming out of there. It really makes me sad to see Reddit explode like this.

Start small, add things that would naturally fit here. /hn/apple, /hn/crypto, /hn/gpt. Don't need images and video, it's fine as is I think. Probaly not going to happen right? This is the only place that has the momentum to pull it off though.

Not sure what the relation between YC and Reddit is these days, but wouldn't HN be in the prime position to take over? I feel all that is needed is to add sub-hn's. Reddit got Digg's business because Digg gambled away all of it's good will. That was a long time ago, Reddit since been going down the same path.

Point is, all these companies are trying to monetize, generate profits, like they somehow responsible for the value the users are creating. All they're doing is hosting bunch of python scripts.

Swallow your pride reddit, you're nothing but a message board and you don't own a single word your users type.

Meh I think I’m done with THC. You’ll always find plenty of enthusiasm and love everywhere for it, but then I never really met or talked to a single person who didn’t eventually became conflicted about it and concluded the negatives far outweigh whatever you get out of it.

Thankfully it’s doesn’t cause any serious harm to you as far as drugs go.

I wonder though, about a 100 years ago, when weed was criminalised, it wasn’t just made illegal - people went out of their way to destroy and get rid of every single hemp plant they could find in nature. Across the whole globe no less. That’s quite a statement. Maybe that’s bound to happen again.

Sorry to be dimissive, I know it's good intentions and all, but please don't do that. We don't need any more unsolicited banners or prompts. See it's one reason native apps are so much preferred over websites. Websites always have banners and whatnot, good apps don't do these things.

Sure, the mission should always be: shipping fun profitable products. Doesn't hurt have solid code architecture from the get go though. From what I understand ECS are very flexible and probably your best bet. It's often hard to see where a game is headed, which can turn thoughtless code very ugly very fast. Still, many games get shipped like that, but if you're in for the long run you'll eventually have to maintain it. So why not consider the advice from industry veterans and read about a few proven design patterns.

No, we judge people by actions, not by random categorizations or 'fits type' or 'Polarizing Charisma'. Here's how to Spot Cult Leader proper: They manipulate people and exploit them by taking their money. Otherwise it's not a cult leader.

It's an estimate. You can come up with different values, but I think no one would really argue porn is that huge of a slice of the pie. Clean money is also a lot more valueable than dark money.

Generative porn will be a big thing, but won't magically lead to more money flowing into the industry. If anything, less.

What's gonna happen is, synthetic porn will replace real porn over time, that's pretty much it. All things considered, biggest beneficiary gotta be the women currently working in the industry, no doubt.

Porn already is huge? In terms of reach, but money compared to other industries is rather small. Video Games for example are 20x-50x bigger then Porn. If anything GenAI means there's gonna be even less money in it.

Ok so, but GenAI interactive literotica companies with loyal followings you say? When's the IPO going to be exactly?
