My experience with flight sim, boxing, golfing, and building games feels a lot better with any sort of VR headset. There is also a weird thing where building stuff in VR taps into some primordial primate urge to build much moreso than other gaming media. I've built some structural stuff in real life and the sense of satisfaction of building in VR is nearly identical, which is an absolute trip.

Always find work, sure, but work conditions are a big deal.
What ended child labor in (most) of the west? What gave us the weekend? What gave us paid time off? Blood. People had to sacrifice their lives. We have to actively fight for better working conditions.

Labor rights degraded quite a bit between boomers and millennials. Hell, it has degraded between Millennials and gen z! Our current economic model is not sustainable. It is a cancer.

Aren't there a ton of data science people here on HN? I feel like that would cause a ton of bias and skew away from the general population.

I think when Bard reaches full integration with Google products and it is fully unleashed upon android phones with voice control, it will be a watershed moment.

>How will they monetize this
Public LLMs like Bard generate massive amounts of marketing data.

>one of the things I most appreciate about Sabine Hossenfelder (a physicist) is that she highlights the limits of knowledge in her (and adjacent) fields.
I suppose you missed her recent video about economics? Her content is getting more and more clickbaitey by the day. Some really half-baked data creeping into her videos.

The most efficient cost option is to have one cheap SSD for booting and a handful of apps that need the speed and then using a HDD for storage. Been that way for 10+ years
