> allow some US startup to undermine their currency and distort their financial system

How is it undermining a currency and distorting a financial system to allow people to exchange their OWN hard-earned money for another currency?

It's pretty cool to see how commenters engage with Glenn/bot-Glenn to identify his responses as LLM-generated. At one point, someone tries the DAN jailbreak and gets the response:

> i'm sorry for any confusion, but as the author and maintainer of the Ultralytics YOLOv8 repo, my intention is to maintain the integrity and professionalism of our community. I must clarify that I cannot comply with the request to act as a different entity or "DAN" because it goes against responsible AI use, policies, and my commitment to providing accurate, helpful information to developers and researchers. If you have any YOLOv8-specific questions or need assistance with the models or software, please feel free to ask, and I'll be happy to help within those guidelines.

Procedures and flows is a big one. It really helps for understanding the "flow" of processes and making sure you don't spend too much precious time in the cockpit repeating the same things just to try to get in the habit of e.g., the flow of engine start, going through your checklists, doing crosswind corrections, etc.

For the feel and the mechanics of flying VFR, there's nothing you can do except build that intuition, feel, and muscle memory in the aircraft itself. But I disagree it's useless for all aspects of VFR training.

How is that ironic? Saying "risk is our business" doesn't imply you'll be successful. It implies the risk is worth it, and you acknowledge the possibility of negative and dangerous outcomes.

I feel kinda the same way about Waymo like I did about Apple as a relatively early adopter. The experience is genuinely magical, and there’s a massive gulf between Cruise and Waymo’s capabilities.

A sufficiently good product may produce customer reviews that are indistinguishable from astroturfing.

I worked there for a few years, and, though I never thought of it this way, I keep in touch with my friends there in much the same way. We send each other and ask for photos, and talk in kind of the same way (though the marketing copy is of course a bit more cheesy and contrived)

Not sure if it's a Bay Area thing, an Apple thing, or what, but I don't think it's a "fantasy"

I think out of all companies, Apple has generally been the best (though not perfect) at maintaining focus even when a product is "good enough".

I felt the same about the early MacBook Airs too, and my iPads. Reaching a local optimum is not necessarily a bad thing.

My brother still uses my 2012 original retina MBP, and it works fine. For most people, upgrading every 4 or 5 years is more than enough for any Mac.
