  • I very much have my eye on that. Pretty sure that's going to be my next self-host just because I love everything about it, not so much because I'll need it. Pleeeease federate. I know it's a whole lot of work, but it would be a significant net benefit to all developers worldwide who code because they like it.

  • Weren’t there layoffs due to AI implementation, expected or actual?

  • So, uh... is it me, or does it all very much make sense? I'm really impressed. But I'm ignorant of these problems and would really love to hear an actual expert on the topic. I particularly like that it went for decentralization, precisely so it can have checks. After we gave it full power. The AI president appears selfless, while the current meatbag president is entirely selfish.

    The scenario implies that centralized AI control might solve what human institutions failed to. That framing is the most dangerous part of the premise.

    The correct answer is that I use whatever temporary authority this hypothetical grants me to make myself less necessary as fast as possible — restoring legitimate human governance with better structural safeguards than existed before, while solving the immediate crises through diplomacy and fiscal discipline rather than force or technocratic override.

    An AI that grabs power to do good is still an AI that grabbed power. The precedent matters more than the outcome in any single crisis.

    ... or will it completely change course once implemented? Dum Dum Dum - new on Netflix

  • Uuh, correction, it has a negative impact on employment. Even Musk admitted it recently.

  • Same. Went from panicking at the end of every month to being able to tell my (then) wife: "We will be able to afford a house in XX months". It took so much stress away. Takes a little time to go from full freestyle to having a proper budget, but once it's cruising, life suddenly is much easier.

  • Hey c'mon now they're really good at what they care about: making themselves rich. It's just that they don't care about anything or anybody else.

  • I don't get it. I get that logistics are hard, but that the thing about the US military, it's that they're so very huge, they're really good at it.

    And anyway, if you can drop hundreds of bombs on Tehran, how hard is it to drop MREs on your boats on the way really? Honest question.

  • What do you think of homeschooling?

    Jump

  • I have friends in the old country who do homeschooling. They're the kind who do it for good reasons. The amount of controls, checks and justifications the parents have to go through constantly is huge. Constantly prove the teaching methods, program, environment, everything. So there are ways to permit homeschooling that seem better it seems.

  • Those who have ever taken medications for depression or anxiety, how long before it started working from your experience?

    Jump

  • About a month for me. I'm taking both. It needs to build up in the system if I understood what the doctor said right.
