Any nation launching any nuke has the potential to eliminate most life on earth. Limited nuclear war is very unlikely. This is a nightmare.

Please read Nuclear War: A Scenario, a book by Annie Jacobsen that discusses the insanity of nuclear war.

Reducing car dependency will increase social activity. Cars are isolating socially and geographically.

Everyone should try live car-free and see how much more connected to your community you'll become.

Cars are extremely space inefficient, so when cities are built for cars it is done at the expense of more efficient transportation methods. And what you're left with in the end is a very inefficient transportation system that REQUIRES a car. An efficient system would simply make cars optional and therefore you have more independence as you have more options - not to mention a system better at moving people.

A big perpetrator of this is the designed environment surrounding car culture. I moved somewhere where there's plenty of foot traffic, specifically so my kid will walk/bike to school and that is seen as completely normal. Most Americans do not understand how horrible car dependence is for personal independence, yet defend it to the end for some reason. It's really a shame.

Of course images are not relevant to ChatGPT (I never specified ChatGPT), but to other models being trained by OpenAI.

From the article:

"That month, Sama began pilot work for a separate project for OpenAI: collecting sexual and violent images—some of them illegal under U.S. law—to deliver to OpenAI."

I feel like comments here are too focused on the $2 per hour aspect and not enough on the emotional abuse that this labour entails. Sure, maybe it's an "average wage", but the people performing this work are suffering mental trauma because for hours upon hours they are subjected to reading stories and viewing images of sexual abuse, assault, gore. The people performing this sort of extremely difficult emotional labour should be taken care of. It is disgusting for OpenAI to pay so little and at the same time have such little respect for humanity and decency.

American suburban culture is embarrassing. Cities should be filled with kids living their own independent lives. Look how dutch cities are built and it's clear to see why dutch youth are the happiest and most free in the world.

What other engineering field has acceptable death rates? We design roads EXPECTING people to die on them. Insane.

Cars were a mistake. Cities would be much better without them.

Hell Let Loose does something similar. Each team of 50 has one commander, and multiple squads with infantry (all human players). The squad leads communicate with the commander, their squad, and other squad leads in order to accomplish plans set by the commander. The commander can call in recon plans, artillery, tanks. Good communication and coordination can win games. It is a rather brutal game though.

Building up doesn't mean building a cypherpunk environment.

Building 4/5 story buildings with units for families is enough for healthy urbanization.

Do things in your regular life that help the planet: Don't drive; bike. Don't eat meat. Stop buying products you don't need. Plant trees in your city. Donate to climate action foundations.

>Skepticism is good, but you should also be skeptical of the first conclusion it leads you to.

As someone who is naturally skeptical, I will keep in this mind more. Thanks.

It feels easy to be skeptical of others, yet much harder to be skeptical of one's own thoughts - for me anyways.

I (now) understand your intention was to simply share your opinion of the keyboard, I happened to see the post in the same format many other commodity-like product posts take: disguising themselves as a genuine review, but really just exist to peddle a product. Intention can be hard to convey on the internet, and if you meant it as a genuine product endorsement, sorry for misinterpreting you.

This is blatant advertising on the front-page of HN. How did a post about a generic keyboard rise so high in such a short period of time?
