- This exchange shows why I don’t trust most people who initially through statistics out on the internet. It takes a real autist to come in with the correct reading of it.
- When people try to downplay rates by comparing to another very rare event, I respond by saying “I don’t want to go outside during a thunderstorm” rather than “you don’t need to risk it cus it’s so rare”.
Most Americans are feeling the same way and you must understand this to understand why Cheeto in chief keeps winning.
- Anxiety is the only real emotion and it is the best one because it truly protects you from evil.
- Nationalizing resources simply gives the capitalist west a legitimate casus beli to “liberate” all the assets that were stolen.
Venezuela is about to be turned into another Vietnam. Iran is next. I remember invading them in a mission in BF3. The USA itches to implement what its media anticipated.
- So were the Japanese better at painting circa the 1700s and 1800s? Because you got a whole lot of paints of, uhhh, octopi…
- This is what you get for not caring about projects like thorium or the Firefox version of it.
I’ve still got my ublock origin in a far faster version of my web browser than what normies use.

Or worse, your whole field can be insitutionally blind to its own failings and randoms outside of it actually DO know more than you!. Chiropractors are literally worthless and being told "oh you don't get it bro" by them is their cope for being scammers, not an example of "their Gell Mann amnesia"
- This is also true when HN talks about AI/ML :)
- So that we aren’t “europoors”. Unironically.
- The “AI is in a bubble crowd” still has no answer to “why didn’t the tech bubble pop in 2022?”
Snowflake bought streanlit (a bad python UI/UX) for 800 million in 2022. I still have not seen a single deal even close to that bad post 2023, and especially post interest rate hikes.

Actually investing in AI is smart and will deliver unfathomable ROI. AI bears deserve to reap what they (don’t) sow.

- Everyone acts like the C8 corvette doesn’t exist when they shit on American cars. Actually GM is an innovative awesome company.
The C8 has topped many “top car” lists since it came out in 2020. The reviews on it are universally excellent and it gaps pretty much anything that the turn-signal hating BMW crowd manufactures both in literal performance and in design.
- A surprising amount of people are gleefully happy to have their perceived enemies put in jail or worse even if and especially if there was no legitimate justification for it.
A lot of people on HN dislike Tim Cook for various reasons and many would literally “sacrifice” him just to get Apple to stop being so anti-consumer.
- That’s because they will be bullied out of the dating market if they have a “green bubble”.
- Intel/AMD hired 2 tiers below MS. Intel's "great place to work" corporate propaganda was known as "Great place to leetcode" by engineers there.
- You are coping. Overwhelmingly the quality of developers is reflected in their pay packages. Overwhelmingly most people are motivated by money/benefits/QOL/GPUs.
This attitude is how you maximize your TC.
- You voted for this America. The Latinos who turn coated on the Democratic Party so hard in 2024 are reaping what they sowed.
Americans don’t want rule of law. They don’t want norms. They want people to suffer and they take great pleasure at the concept. We must kill schadenfreude from our psyche or we will continue to celebrate this barbarism.
I don't see them clearly trying to go transhuman, I see them clearly trying to build AGI. Closer to "I have no mouth and I must scream" than any other particular dystopia IMHO.
