I wonder if a wood powered tractor for farming would be more practical than a wood powered car for transportation

I've been doing more and more web dev with JQuery recently. I learned it in high school and I think most of the new JS frameworks are probably worse.

I'm not sure where this number comes from but McDonald's profit margins may be misleading due to their franchise and real estate based model. If you spend $10 at McDonald's that's paid to the franchise and the central McDonald's corporation isn't necessarily profiting $3.

Is the allegation here that a LLM generated code that was very similar to the author's copyright protected code or that they copied the code and then tried to use AI to hide that fact?

I couldn't get Bluetooth to work on a car ride recently, wasn't able to listen to Spotify from my phone, and had to listen to FM radio. NPR was by far the best option. Everything else was just ads and annoying disk jockeys.

The Federal government making funding to a university contingent on them "reforming" specifically named departments whose foreign policy views the executive branch disagrees with (Israel/Palestine policy) seems like a clear violation of the First Amendment.

Blow's talk made me realize I'm not crazy when I get frustrated about basic things being incredibly difficult. Drawing a button to the screen when you want to build a software application has become so difficult that most people just use a progressive web app which is 100x slower than is possible. Are the best options for GUI applications in 2025 really Java Swing and Qt?

Copyright law needs major reform. We need to figure out a way to let authors monetize their work while not making complying with the law so burdensome. We've created a system where people who (understandably) ignore the law benefit at the expense of people trying to do the right thing.

It's hard to tell if they're telling the truth about the number of GPUs they have. They open sourced the model and the inference is much more efficient than the best American models so it's not implausible that the training was also much more efficient.

It absolutely is. If security is standing in front of the door to the stage are they going to push past? How is security supposed to remove them from the stage without using force? It's force that's designed to make the protesters look like they're the victim if anyone tries to get in their way.

A peaceful protest would be standing outside on the sidewalk with signs.
