I’m wondering whether O3 can be used to explore its own improvement or optimization ideas, or if it hasn’t reached that point yet.

I don't think people's habits will change irreversibly. I actually disagree. A great example is smoking. It's been declining for the past 70 years. It just became unattractive.

Sadly I don't think taxes end up working this way for long. They might or might not start by doing this, but then they just stay forever. I just described my idea how to approach this. I agree that governments are far from being perfect in this matter.

I'm close to being libertarian in many cases; however, I think that a tax may be a good way to quickly address this issue. I also believe that the money received from this tax should be directly spent on educating the public about why it's bad to consume too much sugar. The tax should be gradually decreased until people's habits change.

You can thank the government for all the regulations which make it ultra hard for new companies to enter the market. You can thank the government for not fighting monopolies. Don’t blame the free market as it basically doesn’t exist.

No isolation, no depression, definitely :)

Just curious: Do you spend much time reading news, watching podcasts, or YouTube videos? I've noticed a similar thing in myself and I'm not sure if it's due to COVID or if it's because of this news addition.

I just had this thought (possibly unrelated to this particular situation): We see how many accidents are caused by autonomous vehicles therefore it’s easy to blame them. However what we don’t see is how many accidents did not happen because of autonomous vehicles. I hope regulators consider both cases.

Please read the project description (Point 2 - 2. Download the model).

Maybe something like: hodoov

xAI's mission is to elevate the world's consciousness

I find that my confusion primarily arises from the utilization of "USD", an abbreviation denoting the United States Dollar which exists since 1792 :)

Not sure why you assume the cost of battery replacement will be the same now and in 10 years.

Recently Poland was in a similar situation. We produced too much energy from renewables. As a consequence we had to pay a few millions to other countries to take the energy. Moreover we had to compensate to individuals who have FV but their energy was not allowed to the grid. This is absolutely insane to me. Mining crypto sounds way better than this chaos. If not on country level then on individual level. I'd happily start mining myself if electricity prices were not fixed but followed the real demand.

They should mine crypto when generating too much energy - perfect grid regulation + it makes money.

In the past 3 years I've built 4 apps (1 mid-size, 3 small-mid) using Apollo and IMO it's currently the best possible approach. I did a research for my latest app a half year ago looking for sensible alternatives and didn't really find any.

I used the word "prolonged"

Well, apart from the US:

1. In Japan, the crisis resulted in a prolonged period of economic stagnation, known as the "Lost Decade," which lasted from the early 1990s to the early 2000s. The country had already been struggling with a banking crisis and a property market crash, and the dot-com bubble burst only made things worse.

2. In Europe, the crisis led to a slowdown in economic growth, particularly in Germany, which was heavily dependent on exports. The country was hit by declining demand from the United States, which was one of its biggest trading partners.

3. In emerging market economies, the crisis led to a decline in investment flows and a slowdown in economic growth. Countries like Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina were particularly affected, as they were heavily dependent on foreign investment to finance their economic growth.

Overall, IMO the 2000 crisis had rather a significant impact on the global economy, leading to a decline in economic growth in many countries. I wouldn't call it "soft landing".

I do not know what may or may not happen as if I knew, I’d become very rich. My point here is that the article from 2000 indicates soft landing when the landing definitely was not soft at that time. Just wanted to show the value of such articles.

Just posting this as I think it may be useful to gain some perspective for this type of articles. An article from 2000 indicating soft landing: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB969020894934426807

In my opinion that average household is still a winner in long term as eventually rates will drop, average earnings will go up and the loan will already be devalued.

7% is less than inflation so the real debt actually decreased

You asked a very philosophical question.

To start with, there are different definitions of fairness. A small example: everybody gets equal, everybody gets what they deserve, everybody gets what they need. An so on.

It's very hard to answer this as my definition of "fair" is probably different to yours. However, we live in a free world. The company's rules are clear and nobody is forced to work there. Seems fair in some sense to me.

I personally wouldn't be happy with this arrangement as I would probably seek a little bit more appreciation of my experience and position.

Fishing lvls?

React + Apollo GraphQL (on Node) + Mongodb (with Mongoose, possibly hosted on Atlas)

The reason is simple: I'm most comfortable and proficient with this stack and it's scalable enough to run a mid-sized app. Moreover it's very easy to share the code base between web app and mobile app based on expo (React native) if needed.

I don’t disagree that it may be worse in case of science but just pointing out that the problem is possibly broader and science news is just one of the victims. IMO news may be one of the areas where pure capitalism doesn’t work well.

I would risk to say that nowadays any news suck which implies that it’s not a problem of science but journalism in general.

You can use decentralised exchanges or websites like localbitcoins to avoid any institutions.

That’s an excellent question. I’ve been thinking about this topic a lot. Here’s some problems I think a good cryptocurrency solves:

- Trust: you don’t need to trust any authority or money emitter when using a cryptocurrency.

- Anti-inflation: It’s not possible to print e.g. bitcoin so you are not hit by the “inflation tax”

- Nowadays, governments and other institutions can easily block a bank account with very little reasons and then you need to go through a long process of proving your innocence. Crypto won’t be blocked. It’s like modern swiss bank hiding place

- A real property: it is one of the things that nobody, especially a government, can take away from you

- A war, blackout hedge: it’s hard to travel with gold when you can easily run away from a hot place to a better one keeping your whole fortune

- Probably way more use cases like easily transferring money around the globe etc

I also believe that crypto are in very early stage of their existence so some of the points may not fully apply yet but they are valid in a long run.

Don’t be scared to ask questions. That’s called science :>
