output only slows down because companies don't want to adjust how they work. its a complete skill issue if you cant manage a remote org. if a company/team is already spread out across multiple offices, its a remote org
sure, that doesn't mean pay is justified
None of that will address the fact that China is intentionally engaging in mercantilism and keeping the value of the yuan low to maintain export volumes. cutting 100k jobs will shave 1k off the production cost of a car, china has like a 6k advantage.
Tesla already lost that fight, which is why they're resorting to asking for import bans.
You kinda don’t want to kill the whole river ecosystem. We need a functioning environment
And none of it will matter because everyone will know you’re a 64k a year peon.
Working for basically free for “prestige” is a sucker move
You don’t.
Let's pause for a moment, that actually sharpens the case rather than complicating it.
You don't have to be a constitutional scholar to see it's bullshit.
Just the fact that originalism implies an ability to perfectly know what the dead from 1788 meant with each word in every situation. It's a ludicrous proposition.
Covid killed lots of people, what are we even talking about. I was healthy and vaccinated when I got covid and that did a number on me, I don't know where I'd be today if i wasn't
hundreds of millions (billions?) of doses have been given out at this point. If there was evidence of harm it would be very obvious and you wouldn't need to lean on conspiracy
"America" is a place name created by Europeans and "Americans" an identity created by their descendants.
So there's no "ethnic" Americans because its an invented social identity.
its what happens when a company runs out of ideas and is mostly run by people with MBAs.
Good ideas are now risky because it steps on the toes of someone's fiefdom
Congress passed laws that blocked the federal government from fusing data across departments for this specific reason. the admin decided to ignore those, and a friendly congress is deciding to not act on that.
You really, really don't want a government who can build a unified profile on you in that way.
you don't need AI to deal drugs, plenty of people with little education do it all the time
xAI is a dead company; you don't sell compute if you're growing.
More promising is that cursor is training a model using it.
Internal trade barriers are a real problem, Canada is a country with a small population and vast resource wealth, so its odd that there are barriers between provinces.
id rather use the thinking models so the voice mode isnt' useful, i do use voice-to-text more and more just to speed things up though
Well yeah, YC is a tech incubator plugged pretty deep into the SV hivemind, and the leading figures of it seemed to have decided that fascism is a better alternative to any kind of regulation on their activities.
its inevitable if you do nothing to organize politically against it.
prescription amphetamines don't do this if you are taking the prescribed dose (and you're not getting enough prescribed to get anywhere near high)
New Deal-era regulations on financial flows made it painful tax-wise to remove cash from a company. So you either had to pay it as dividends, or you invest it in R&D, wages, or benefits for employees (this is why companies used to have very plush benefits even for lower level managers). When combined with pretty aggressive anti-trust, it also funneled cash into business expansion via conglomerates.
Companies were asset rich (which is the seam of valuable companies that private equity has been strip mining for 40 years, but even those are running out now).
Share buybacks are more symbolic that the Reagan era made it easy to take cash out of companies, which led to a race to the bottom of extracting as much cash as possible while leaving little for operations, wages, or expansion.
they probably mean gpt-5-low. but the small models are bad for parsing data where the data has strong implications
In the U.S. context this impacts agencies that regulate industry and offer beneficial state services (healthcare, food inspection, pollution monitoring) and not services that impact state control (DHS, the military, or domestic secret police (FBI)).
The longstanding goal has been to undo the new deal
Gpt5 writes clean, simple code and listens to instructions. I went from tons of Claude APi usage to usage to basically none overnight
if you have the right to travel between internal states then there should be no reason you can't travel to other sovereign states.
I don't think they're offering a VSCode fork, esp when the copy you pasted says 'move beyond the IDE'.
Seems more like an agent layer on top of their existing CDE product. Which is a bit different than a cursor/windsurf/etc clone.
Literally no credible research supports your conclusions. The only one being ideological here is you.
Drug responses can be weird. Plus if you’ve been told this will make you manic and hyperfocused, your body will respond accordingly even if biochemically that doesn’t make a lot of sense.
Its also high quality and their products last a long time
