- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 16 hours ago:
Well, hold your beer because Brazil is just passing a similar law at this moment. Expect other countries to follow.
- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 16 hours ago:
Yeah, is the next step to ban games like Free Fire, Counter Strike etc.?
- Comment on Cornell's world-first 'microwave brain' computes differently 1 day ago:
This seems very useful, I just wonder whether it can interface with other digital components easily.

Nowadays, being free or paid doesn’t change anything about it actually.
- Comment on Russia orders state-backed Max messenger app to be pre-installed on new phones 2 days ago:
Folks, we have the most INCREDIBLE announcement today. Maybe the best announcement in the history of announcements, many people are saying it. We’re launching the beautiful, tremendous Maxest app — and let me tell you, it’s going to be HUGE!
This fantastic app — and by the way, it was my idea, nobody else could have thought of this — will come pre-installed on every phone. The fake news media will try to tell you it’s some kind of “spy app” - WRONG! Totally wrong!
The app will help you in so many ways: weather alerts, traffic updates, finding the best hamburgers in your area. It’s all about making life more convenient! The Democrats don’t want you to have this amazing technology. They want you to stay uninformed! But we’re giving you the most beautiful, most secure app ever created. Our cyber experts — the best in the world, probably the best who have ever lived — they built walls around this app.
Other countries will be so jealous of our app, they’ll probably try to steal it. But they can’t, because it’s AMERICAN MADE!
- Comment on Pritzker, taking aim at Trump, crypto ‘bros,’ signs laws to regulate digital currency industry, crypto ATMS 5 days ago:
It’s funny that the exact same thing happened in Brazil during Bolsonaro. When the pandemic peaked, the Federal government simply sit down while the States themselves (literally all States) joined and negotiated the vaccines for Brazil bypassing the Federal role.
- Comment on "I support it only if it's open source" should be a more common viewpoint 1 week ago:
Which means in the long run the cost will get down to 0.
- Comment on Study: Social media probably can’t be fixed 1 week ago:
This is spot on.
- Comment on "I support it only if it's open source" should be a more common viewpoint 1 week ago:
It reminded me of an older writing about it:
Open source doesn’t make money because it wasn’t designed to make money
- Comment on "I support it only if it's open source" should be a more common viewpoint 1 week ago:
You’re allowed, but as long as anyone else can do it for free, you can’t build a business model on selling it. At most you can sell something else (support, cloud compute, some solution that makes using it easier etc.).
- Comment on UK government suggests deleting files to save water 1 week ago:
More processing might result in more water use, but storage? It makes no actual sense. Having more stuff sitting in your storage isn’t making your computer hotter.
In fact, I guess creating a guideline for servers to use more efficient processors would do much more for that.

Unfortunately game theory says we’re gonna do it whenever it’s technologically possible.

Think about the possibility of articles that they can write considering the infinity of random shit an LLM can output.
- Comment on Techcrunch reports that AI coding tools have "very negative" gross margins. They're losing money on every user. 1 week ago:
I was gonna say that, probably the higher the abstraction level the best it is for LLMs to reason about the code, because once learned it’s less tokens.
- Comment on No, the UK’s Online Safety Act Doesn’t Make Children Safer Online 2 weeks ago:
Hopefully this will happen sooner than later and change people’s minds about the whole thing.
- Comment on The World Will Enter a 15-Year AI Dystopia in 2027, Former Google Exec Says 2 weeks ago:
If you think about it, the majority of the world population never knew anything different than dystopia.
- Comment on Techcrunch reports that AI coding tools have "very negative" gross margins. They're losing money on every user. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, this has been reported on multiple analysis over time. Until something in the hardware space changes, it’s gonna be an unprofitable business.

It’s the default relationship advice on Reddit
- Comment on Age Verification Is Coming for the Whole Internet 2 weeks ago:
And when some data is leaked, your id will be with it.

That won’t matter when everything becomes paywalled.

- Comment on Apple iPhone 17 to iPhone 17 Pro Max: US, UK, Canada release dates, prices, camera and specs revealed 3 weeks ago:
Well, modern smartphones don’t even deserve a mention in the news. Guaranteed these models aren’t gonna make a difference in the experience compared to using the previous or previous previous versions.
- Comment on AI chatbots are becoming popular alternatives to therapy. But they may worsen mental health crises, experts warn 3 weeks ago:
Which is why OpenAI put relationships with real people as a competitor of ChatGPT.

Marginalia should be one of the most important things to preserve, in a similar importance to Wikipedia.
- Comment on Surprising no one, new research says AI Overviews cause massive drop in search clicks 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, the best is never going to be “now”, which is always drown in uncertainty and chaos. When you look back, everything looks safe and deterministic.
- Comment on WhatsApp is dropping its native Windows app in favor of an uglier web version 4 weeks ago:
I’m just thinking now that the Mac is next.
I thought that as much as these companies preach about LLMs doing their coding, the cost of development would go down, no? So why does it need to reduce everything to a single code base to make it easier for developers?
- Comment on Vibe coding service Replit deleted production database 5 weeks ago:
All I see is people chatting with an LLM as if it was a person. “How catastrophic from 0 to 100?”, you’re just tweeting to get some random answer based solely on whatever context is being fed in the input and that you probably don’t know the extent of it.
Trying to make the LLM “see its mistakes” is a pointless exercise.
