Yes, most people there are normal. I come to HN for interesting insight from a certain perspective... not for the average opinion of the population, which you're much more likely to find on X.

The last time it was DNS at Salesforce, the poor guy got unceremoniously canned. So there's some incentive for it to... not be DNS.

No, he is not. It's just that OpenAI has just been doing things a lot better than their competitors lately, and he often highlights the things that make this true.

You can't just shrug off a whole host of threatening and criminal behavior because you sympathize with the cause of the terrorists committing the acts.

Antifa has caused a lot of damage to society, which is why they are considered a Domestic Terrorist Organization in the US and are being actively pushed back against now that their billionaire-backed funding networks have been identified.

Some people avoid those because they tend to consist entirely of people that support banning non-approved ideas that the real world considers non-controversial. That's why X hasn't disappeared like some of the HN crowd predicted.

I reject your (and Wikipedia’s) theory of “remigration” arbitrarily defining something that is (not actually) happening in the US. People are being deported from the US based on their lack of legal presence in the country, which is what every country also does. Nobody is being deported because of their skin color.

Also, nobody is jumping to the conclusion that you’re wrong about something that is not actually happening. It’s just a simple fact that what you’ve stated is preposterous to begin with and is not the policy of any recent law or administration in the US.

I know it’s cool with the kids to talk down Texas and its folks, but you might be surprised that Texas…

- produces more electricity from wind generation than any other US state.

- consumes more electricity from wind generation than any other US state (3x the next biggest, Iowa).

- has more installed wind generation capacity than any other state.

- energy usage leads all other US states by being comprised of 22% wind generation sources.

I see a fake image with a fake narrative.

I had the same issue with Zepbound (tirzepatide) 10mg/0.5ml when they wanted to push me to Wegovy (semaglutide), even though Zepbound was already working and helping. Zepbound isn't even on their formulary now.

I wrote the insurance company a detailed letter (helped by AI) containing evidence for the benefits of Zepbound over Wegovy and Zepbound over nothing, as well as documented the benefits I already experienced taking the medication. They approved coverage based on this pushback, and I just paid $25 for 3 months' supply.

Might be a potential avenue for some folks...

Buc-ee's (another from-Texas staple) also offers fresh, daily-made tortillas :)

I get where you're coming from, but I think the part you're missing is that caching is not optional (per the "with the cache disabled" comment). If you're running a service like theirs, you need to do caching to some degree.

My understanding of their implementation is that it does caching on a per-worker basis with lower TTLs, so it balances caching with accuracy, but doesn't "fix" visibility to the problem either. However, it narrows the window such that their method of monitoring will very likely expose a pulled domain sooner.

There's no plurality on "the right" that holds the perspectives you're attributing to them. What you've stated is the pristine modern example of propaganda and is exactly why there is no healing.

Hasn't everything DeepSeek and Alibaba created thus far been distilled from the results of many, many accounts logging into Claude and ChatGPT? And that's why there's so much bot detection now at US frontier labs? Doesn't that make the Chinese labs dependent until some unknown point in the future on advancements of US frontier labs? While what they currently provide is cheap, it seems like it's artificially cheap and somewhat static because they took others' intellectual property (no comment needed about US frontier labs stealing the world's knowledge... that's a separate topic).
