seniorivn··on Outsourcing plus local AI will soon become more economical vs. frontier labs
right now the most likely outcome is that they are going to host locally produced much more power hungry chips, and even if the lead on electricity production will stay, it will be eaten by inefficiency of the hardware.
seniorivn··on My vote on voting systems
serious question, how do you know your vote is counted and is not intercepted/counterfeited before that?
seniorivn··on Physical Intelligence's first generalist policy AI can finally do your laundry
efficiency and productivity is clearly more important for development of all industries than what you value. Political institutions are not very good at preparing for unfamiliar problems, dont count on them doing that. Just push for progress in natural way, and for politicians to adjust to an already happend changes. Thats the best that we can do.

you should also try to avoid cars and electric lights, grooms and gas light maintainers need jobs too
seniorivn··on Starlink direct-to-cell enabled for hurricane helene emergency messaging
he involved himself in politics, so everyone who have strong feelings against his "side" or for his opponents, project it on him in a form of hate.

Inevitable consequence of the two party system and/or fptp election system

seniorivn··on Is the Shoplifting "Crisis" Over?
the mind blowing fact is that for any significant percentage of people taking something that is not yours, can be justified by anything. That is not western culture, saying that as someone born in ussr, where stealing from government has never been considered stealing, which to this day the reason for all the corruption and low level of trust on every level of communication.
seniorivn··on We spent $20 to achieve RCE and accidentally became the admins of .mobi
its the opposite, its an increase of rent, because you want to increase rent

is it safe from it?
seniorivn··on 10% of Cubans left Cuba between 2022 and 2023
there is no point in comparing gdps here, what's important is what is the capability of war industry and armies are, and at the moment we can see that industries are not that far off, add nuclear weapons to the picture, and its draw, just as it was in the cold war.

education has nothing to do with this, an average university professor in Russia(or for a matter of fact in the west too) is a radical supporter of the mainstream media
seniorivn··on 10% of Cubans left Cuba between 2022 and 2023
it would help a lot if you all stopped calling the mess implemented in practice without any ideology behind it by a theoretical model name.
seniorivn··on 10% of Cubans left Cuba between 2022 and 2023
most anti-immigration folks, are for controlled immigration process, instead of droves of people crossing the borders

And to be honest being on the other side of the board, the immigration process is a mess

seniorivn··on 10% of Cubans left Cuba between 2022 and 2023
They are a hostile dictatorship, with zero resources but their oppressed people. Why would USA be interested in allying with them?
seniorivn··on A low budget consumer hardware espionage implant (2018)
just put it inside the original keyboard
seniorivn··on Boeing 737 crashes during take-off in Senegal
Airlines are strictly regulated by Boeing/Airbus/western institutions, this airlines wouldnt be able to fly to safe countries if their airplanes didnt pass regular official certifications, Boeing and Airbus provide that. The same way as pilots are certified by boeing and airbus to fly their planes
seniorivn··on Ask HN: Which low-budget camera would you recommend for recording podcasts?
Any camera except a webcam will work. Focus on lighting and microphones, ones you have a reason to upgrade your setup, you might consider dslr cameras that are used for serious video productions
seniorivn··on Low Cost Robot Arm
most of those are trained on a very flawed data, so in order to use it for anything non trivial, you will have to invest a lot in fine-tuning, maybe even to an extent to call it training
seniorivn··on Sam Bankman-Fried sentenced to 25 years in prison
this is exactly that, he got 25, will be free in half of that. Thats the best his influence could get, given the publicity.

seniorivn··on The killer app of Gemini Pro 1.5 is using video as an input
incentives cannot be fixed with just prohibitive laws, war on drags should've taught you something
seniorivn··on Debate moderators should enforce factuality and logical consistency
thats bullshit, all you need debate moderators to do is to maintain the rules about timing etc
seniorivn··on Unveiling secrets of the ESP32: creating an open-source MAC layer
you either intentionally or unintentionally phrased it in a way that blames unnamed participant 1. And given the context of this conversation, it seems that you blame US for CCP's inevitable spying. Seems weird given the kind of government CCP is(hint, the name).

In my opinion US is only at fault for spying on it's own citizens(im not citizen nor resident of the us), and in doing so it undermined its counter intelegence actions against state adversaries. Next time there is a good guy in the white house, All intelligence apparatus should be dismantled and replaced with something more transparent for the people, even though the reality where most of the world is despotic by design and there for hostile to a supposed to be free nation is still there.

seniorivn··on Firefox on the brink?
and what about their book? inability to put yourself into someone else's shoes, is a very big flag. A red one in my book.
seniorivn··on Bitcoin Core 26.0
even better idea, github should charge repos that have huge environment impact shit load of money, and subsidize those who are good(and probably vote for the right people)
seniorivn··on Bitcoin Core 26.0
isnt it necessary to run full node to mine bitcoin?
seniorivn··on Mouse experiments reveal the brain-heart connections that cause fainting
now it's just a trait of scared monkeys, if it wasnt for development of civilization, it could be deadly. Lucky us, first communities of monkeys learned how valuable non deadly dominance can be, which allowed smart but not very good at aggression to survive, and over the years develop additional ways of dominance, rather than just pure strength.
seniorivn··on Americans' confidence in technology firms has dropped
well, there is an assumption, that the circumstances are a political/economical system which is the same one. But there is an argument to be made about deterioration of institutions
seniorivn··on Americans' confidence in technology firms has dropped
the only solid fact that you need is that tech giants of the past are not tech giants today, and the same way MS missed mobile market, Nokia failed with touchscreen smartphones, atnt and its parts failed to innovate, ibm lost and left pc/x86server etc, current giants are likely to loose. The only difference now is that the biggest competition today is from foreign companies that leads to them being able to get support of government and therefore compete not on the basis of merit, but in a political way.
seniorivn··on deVStudio – Runs VS Code on Android
it's probably not as obvious when you are just out of jail(which is a shame, being locked up should be exactly the time when you can educate yourself, but not in real life probably)

But using linux terminal as devbox doesnt mean you dont have access to modern auto-complete syntax lookups formating etc, there are vim/neovim/emacs with any kind of configurations for all of it, and it can be preconfigured by others with projects like https://github.com/AstroNvim/AstroNvim or https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs

So if you know anyone in the same kind of situation, you can advise them to use that.
