I was happy to take VC money to uber to parts of town I wouldn't have otherwise for that period of time. Only my local bar lost out on selling me like maybe 20 drinks over the year or so.

Yes, obviously. They're both working to make it cheaper, faster, and better at different industries (3d animations, etc). The only direction they are slowing is raw intelligence.

It's just not true at all though, and I don't get where the meme comes from other than the politicians pointing their fingers at the rich so we don't look at them. If there wasn't incentive to be homeless, we wouldn't have so many.

You're just gullible to the other side, not sure why you can't see that.

You're creating a fake choice. Other people are commenting on how ineffective the party that claims to be the heroes actually are. Calling out BS here is right IMO.

I wish I got paid for my crusade against ignorant posters trying to brainwash the youth against their own community.

I think the biggest attraction is the formation of the group with no established processes. Nobody telling you "This is how things are done around here". Exactly the opposite of ham radio

> So you have to be evil to think of what evil can do by the statement you made.

You don't, and my statement did not assert that. You are stretching wayyy too much here to try to get the world to fit your narrative.

They do, in droves. It's clear you don't know anything about the entire industry.

Is your mental model of the world made entirely from low budget Hollywood movies?

Looks like you pasted in the wrong input box. This was a comment form, not google or an llm.

Exactly, setting policy for Americans and American companies is extremely important and should not be ego driven. These deals are to improve America, not to look strong.

This is the problem with European thinking, you have this built-in mindset that you think you're going to be so cool with a gotcha because I can't provide a "proof of concept" or solution right now for a problem that OTHER PEOPLE are working on. Sheesh, just get off your high horse and admit that other people that are smarter and harder working than you are going to solve problems you can't manage.

Your desire to call out bullshit is stronger than your ability to GSD.

That depends on what "change shopping cart behavior" entails though. Sure, if you edit the icon you're pretty safe, but what if the change is a fix so if two people are adding things to the same cart on separate computers, the page will get updated, so they swap out to their webhook library and make a couple edits, but that library is also what powers the UI for the AWS consoles in govcloud?

Now you're making changes to the source code used in govcloud using claude, a clear supply chain violation.

It's a very wishy-washy area right now, and the branches are all struggling to figure out how to work around these laws that were mostly intended to keep jobs in the USA but are now hampering productivity. One example is that DoD contractors can't use open source software that has a non-us developer as a core maintainer. Obviously that's extremely hard to track and it's mostly ignored. Pete definitely bit off more than he realized in his effort to seem cool and get what he wanted.

That's not remotely true, you're projecting how you would abuse power. Not everyone is as evil-minded, and I hope they continue to do a great job at keeping your ilk out of the organization.

If AWS employees use Claude to build govcloud, it is a violation of supply-chain. Either Amazon, Microsoft, and Google require their employees to stop using claude or the DoD has to migrate off of these cloud providers.

Or these companies have to completely split the govcloud work from its commercial offerings (which defeats the whole point).

Wym "backed by"? This makes no sense. I am a contractor, use an iphone, and never connect it to govcloud.

They are not "just a purchaser" though. It's the world's most powerful organization that is funded by the people and is supposed to be for the people. I'm all for businesses making FAFO decisions, but expect a lot more here.

Would you still in 10yrs? 30? When all the current employees have left, and anti-Western people make most of the decisions?

Ah yes, the very hard hitting anti-business rule that says if you don't become a customer of my friend's company, you must give me money. I'm sure the businesses were quivering in their boots when every citizen either became a customer, paid a fine, or became a felon.

Please point to the hard-hitting ones, almost all the big co's at the time thought they got off too easy and were expecting a lot worse. At the end of the day, Sarbox and Dodd-frank basically just required those businesses to increase headcount 10%.

> Claude also directly causes conflict within teams through excessive utility of "git blame"

Lol wtf, do you think nobody here knows how to use git? this is like a Fox News comment, you are not a developer and are trying to spread fear because a word was used jokingly. "git blame" is just a diff tool.

You cannot use git blame to cause conflict.

You're going to have to be very close, basically in the direct line between ground station and satellite (which would be airspace that's easily guarded), have a lot of battery/cooling systems to run that laser on what would essentially be a one-way-trip all for disrupting comms for maybe a few minutes tops? And that's just for one ground station, where the blue team can just set another one up a few meters away and be safe. Honestly, you'd probably be better off dumping glitter or water in the sky than trying to actively jam laser comms.

I really hope those get an improvement, the externalities of asphalt roofs are so crazy I wish more people paid attention.

I guess we're redefining "the scientific community", cutting out those who were wrong each time? Do you consider the French Space Agency (CNES), former NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden, the European Space Agency to be part of the scientific community? I still vividly remember one interview where Elon started to tear up because Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan publicly denied the feasibility of SpaceX's mission.

"Scientists" being detractors and everyone going online to comment about how something is impossible while the people doing the thing just do it then all the detractors quietly shrug it off until the next time is so consistent it feels like Groundhog Day. I'd really like to learn about why so many people get off by saying something that other people are working on is impossible.

I don't think that is the argument, or if so it's an odd one because it's just a fact right now. Instead, people are claiming that it will never be feasible from a purely physics standpoint, which is something debatable.

just like reusable rockets sending astronauts to the space station and internet in the sky. imagine if they delivered on those bs marketing claims?

...but they are already building it.

> Sure datacenters with latency measured in several hours sure are useful

Training models takes weeks, are you really worried about a couple hours?

> Can be jammed by drone with laserpointer

Ok, you're just joking

I think you're off by a few orders of magnitude on cost.
