It will lead to more dark money. It’s very hard to accurately measure a persons net worth when their financials aren’t just a house and an IRA like the average person. Especially if they don’t want you to see it. You’ll never be able to implement that tax in a consistent way.

They will just live in other countries if being a billionaire is illegal.

What was right wing about him?

In the future there will be media queries for how old the reader is.

The dependency hell of JS is caused by React. It’s an ironic turn because node gained popularity in part because it was one of the first to have a coupled package manager with a massive public contribution model, full of a billion packages that follow the unix philosophy of “everything should do only one thing, and do it well” Dependency hell would disappear if people stopped popularizing competing swiss army knives. It’s made worse by people trying to mash these swiss army knives together just to improve portfolio.

We’ve gotten to the point where you aren’t considered a real professional unless you start even the smallest projects with maximum technical debt.

It should never be impressive that you used a tool. If the tool made programming it easier then it’s not a mental feat. If the tool made programming it harder, then people should think you are kind of slow for using a tool that made development harder. This is why brag culture over what tools are used makes no sense. Just use tools that make life easier. If it doesn’t make life easier, stop using it.

Intuition is about the only thing it has. It’s a statistical system. The problem is it doesn’t have logic. We assume because its computer based that it must be more logic oriented but it’s the opposite. That’s the problem. We can’t get it to do logic very well because it basically feels out the next token by something like instinct. In particular it doesn’t mask or disconsider irrelevant information very well if two segments are near each other in embedding space, which doesn’t guarantee relevance. So then the model is just weighing all of this info, relevant or irrelevant to a weighted feeling for the next token.

This is the core problem. People can handle fuzzy topics and discrete topics. But we really struggle to create any system that can do both like we can. Either we create programming logic that is purely discrete or we create statistics that are fuzzy.

Of course this issue of masking out information that is close in embedding space but is irrelevant to a logical premise is something many humans suck at too. But high functioning humans don’t and we can’t get these models to copy that ability. Too many people, sadly many on the left in particular, not only will treat association as always relevant but sometimes as equivalence. RE racism is assoc with nazism is assoc patriarchy is historically related to the origins of capitalism ∴ nazism ≡ capitalism. While national socialism was anti-capitalist. Associative thinking removes nuance. And sadly some people think this way. And they 100% can be replaced by LLMs today, because at least the LLM is mimicking what logic looks like better though still built on blind association. It just has more blind associations and finetune weighting for summing them. More than a human does. So it can carry that to mask as logical further than a human who is on the associative thought train can.

Even defining reason is hard and becomes a matter of philosophy more than science. For example, apply the same claims to people. Now I’ve given you something to think about. Or should I say the Markov chain in your head has a new topic to generate thought states for.

You hurt their fee fees with that one.

When he was a teenager it would have been Slackware. Not even Knoppix was released yet.

And he didn’t use Linux as a teenager. You hallucinate things worse than ChatGPT.

Does that invalidate what he said? Isn’t that just the genetic fallacy?

True. But the US has a tendency to make exceptions for Israel. So the fact that he stuck to his math and didn’t get Israel a special exception is a small win for US Israel relations. (aka making them more normal).

Basically it’s exceptional that we didn’t make an exception. That’s kind of sad. But because it’s exceptional it’s worth noting.

This is why we should end all federal policing. It’s not in the constitution. You were never meant to interact with your federal government. The federal government was for regulating the states, interstate commerce, and common defense.

I wonder if Canadians can read and learn that their own tariffs are causing the same problems for them.

Which is pretty true. But it’s funny because Canada has tougher tariffs on the US meaning their people pay more for things there for exactly the same reason. Canada charges a 300% tariff on dairy.

So yeah. Tariffs are bad. Let’s get rid of them entirely.

So instead you’d like protectionism for corporate moguls because at least it isn’t free market?

Found the communist so dedicated to communism that in turn he hates the free market so much that he’d prefer government backed inequality. Anything that points out that its wrong should be questioned as suspect as wrong think. It’s funny how useful the anti-wrong think crowd end up being to corporations.

What makes you think he supports Trump? What a strange comment.

Jokes on them. I’m going to use AI to estimate the value of content, and now I’ll get the kind of content I want, though fake, that they will have to generate.

How am I not aware of that being a thing. I looked it up to confirm my stupidity but I ended up finding what I thought I would find. Syrup to add to coffee. I have never heard of anyone selling a concentrated coffee syrup.

Ok. That’s valid.
