I worked at Tesla when they announced the Roadster 2 and said they’d start production. That never happened. Funny to see everyone eat this up, let’s see when or if they deliver.

I struggle with this. I think i'm Aphantic, but then again I can imagine a red apple in my mind. But if i have my eyes closed, it's not like I see it in the black of my closed eyes. I just imagine it, with some detail but also limited detail? I guess that puts me slightly on the aphantasia side of the scale, but it feels very hard to understand my own subjective experience in contrast to the written version.

I think Macron is incredibly smart to be investing in STEM in France. There are plenty of very intelligent and successful French people in the US who are very unhappy with the direction of the US, attracting that talent home will serve them well.

I mean, to be fair there is nothing but shallow content available considering it's all stochastic responses that are incredibly difficult to actually measure and make real scientific inferences about. Until that changes I think it's going to be constant slop about optimization.

Can someone help me understand the argument that the FTC blocking the merger was bad?

The argument I have seen is that blocking it resulted in Spirit dying and people losing their jobs and there being less competition.

Wouldn’t the same exact thing have happened regardless? Am i supposed to believe that Jet Blue would have kept all of those employees? There would be one less competitor anyway, and in the merger case they’re even more powerful now meaning competing is harder.

It seems to me it’s just that creditors want to be paid out by a merger rather than paid our for cents on the dollar when it died on it’s own.

Am I crazy for thinking this is possibly a US cyber attack on the infrastructure to justify Trump's coming actions?

Does Mistral come close to Opus 4.6 with any of their models?

This will backfire on Sam someday, he’s just a pawn in the agenda of the Trump admin.

Why? The author is a contributor to that project. What’s wrong with posting this project?

Blink is for completion, not fuzzy find.

Mate, the entire political class around the world is involved. The fact that you focus on “socialists” which Chomsky is not, says more about your commitment to ideology than anything else.

Lost me at the first sentence. That is an insanely large claim to make with no evidence.

I do, but i am not claiming that by 2027 i’m going to destroy all jobs and forever change the economy.

There are skills I learn through training and no longer need documentation for.

I didn’t burn shit tons of energy and water consuming the entirety of the internet and the need my user to set up hundreds of markdown files to help me writr boilerplate code.
