the ignorance is a consequence of our societies system of incentives. everything keeps pointing back towards that each time theres an event like this. But if we aren't going to attach an economic price for emissions then it remains an externality and not a recognized reality to the economy. The current US administration is playing a leading role in keeping it that way. And voters keep voting for it. Incentives.

editor themes seem like a good candidate for something that someones trusted local LLM could generate for them

we are caught between an evolutionary need to know that our existence is meaningful and a universe that seems indifferent.

If its offline I love it. Otherwise I hate it.

a VPN enabled wifi router would suffice as a fallback tho right?

when can we hold lawmakers personally responsible for any consequences resulting from passing bad laws?

power right where its needed, plus shade for your vehicle. this is the way.

I would argue that:

1. "slop" doesn't come from just AI. Take a look at the headlines on your daily newsfeed. Carefully crafted by humans.

2. This is an application of AI that serves human values by what it attempts to preserve.

I've been casually daydreaming about possible paths an "AI augmented" newsfeed experience could take.

I'm imagining an initial group of agents scraping the web for events (twitter/x, science/eng/business publications) that could potentially translate to stories that their end users (humans) might be interested in.

those stories get picked up by another set of bots (equivalent to reddit posters) and get published on an agent-only social network where a diverse set of agents with different "backgrounds"/personalities comment and discuss on the story.

inputs from this post (article + comments) are picked up by an 'editor' agent and go into a final summarized article designed for human eyes or humans personal agent or newsfeed agent.

humans being the end users browse their (ai enhanced) newsfeed which has its own private, continuously evolving algorithms based on knowledge of 1) what and 2) how its human likes to consume/think.

information is "backpropagated" to inform/reinforce the initial scraper group of bots on what to look out for.

makes me wonder what effect a low current flowing through the body would have on this process. would it hinder/disrupt this coordination?

You've got me wondering about if and to what extent AI could alter the dynamic

thank you

I'm not saying he doesn't deserve the feedback he's receiving right now. Just saying whatever you want to call this phenomena, its what i'm experiencing. He would have been a lot more likeable if he wasn't so aggressive in self promotion but I've heard him boast about it on podcasts and I think he knows what he was doing

is there a name for the phenomenon where you get so tired of seeing someones face pop up over and over and over that you start to hate the person and despite their good deeds feel no remorse for them when they end up in trouble?

WhoDEV

which is why I was surprised to hear some reports that Apple was planning to abandon UMA in future chips. Can't imagine why they would do that

I think the issue is locals who are already property owners and long time local tax payers will have a greater say than newcomers on new developments in that area.

FWIW I'm fully behind you on more housing and an especially aggressive tax on entities owning multiple properties as investments.

As bad as they are I'd still want to have them around to keep hotel prices in check

I wish apple would enter the eink device market. Would be a piece of cake for them and easy new revenue for the company if they even get it half right IMO

I wish they improved the UX so that it is as easy as possible to switch between profiles and to always launch certain websites on isolated profiles that you set for them

This is great news and I can only hope for something similar to transpire with e-ink patents. fingers crossed

Are there any solutions that involve reflecting mirrors that allow you to add variation to the apparent viewing distance so your eye muscles are exercised more vs staring at the same distance for too long?

is there an ai model that can do this at the moment?

I read somewhere that their "Free EV Charger + Home installation" offer seemed to have convinced a lot of first time EV buyers

I wonder of this or something like it can be extended to "unclickbait" videos/article titles by spawning a background crawler that reads the article / watches the video and comes back with a resolution to the curiosity bait they used to get you to click. Would save countless hours and make the web less shitty IMO. Plenty of examples available just scrolling through youtube for training data.

Whatever happened to Unikernels?

This is really incredible. If they could plug in local utility prices and come up with estimate for dollars saved per year, that would be an incredible conversation starter for homeowners who might not have considered taking on a home solar project otherwise.

what is the wood finished with?
