We're reaching the point where models are only going to hold the number one spot for hours.

Sorry i wasn't clearer. My point is that some percent or those decisions are already outsourced to ai. When it makes decisions while carrying out work, or even in the choices and ideas it presents to us, it is shaping and deciding what gets built. Algorithms on tiktok and YouTube already decide what we watch. Probably most human watch hours in a day are decided by algorithms already.

People already routinely ask AI questions about what to build or do.

Github Pages is free hosting with domains and ssl, no bills, and has good longevity and prospects. I don't want to worry or think about a static site, and big players like Github and Cloudflare seem to fit that best.

I believe he said Teslas are meant to appreciate in value too because you get income from renting them out when you're not using your car. They'll just drive around and work as a taxi while you're not using it.

He's more sci-fi author than CEO at this point.

Article should show the config:

[pgbouncer] listen_addr = 0.0.0.0 listen_port = 6432 so_reuseport = 1 peer_id = 1 unix_socket_dir = /tmp/pgbouncer1

[peers] 1 = host=/tmp/pgbouncer1 2 = host=/tmp/pgbouncer2 3 = host=/tmp/pgbouncer3 4 = host=/tmp/pgbouncer4

Is that from the popularity of evs, or from data centers?

I'm not convinced wireheading the elderly is a good solution to their loneliness.

Plant patents incentivize the creation of disease resistant, tasty, and hardy varieties. If you remove the patents, you remove the incentive for private capital.

Capital to create new plants has to come from somewhere: public tax funding, grower-funded pools, or patent licensing. We do a mix of all three.

Essentially all commercial apple trees are grafted and don't reproduce true to seed. Been this way for almost a century now.
