We are witnessing the greatest ripoff in world history. First they illegally scrape the entire history of human text, art, video, then they create products to replace humans, next the wealth of those fired humans is transferred to wealthy VCs and large businesses.

And all the while these crooks are claiming it's so humans can focus on more important things. Yeah right. If we're lucky, AI won't improve and there will be a huge backlash, like outsourcing in the early 2000s. If AI gets better, actually good enough to do most work currently done by humans, well then probably something really ugly happens.

Your comment seems a little flippant honestly. I know what "disrupted" is, trust me. I developed a gluten sensitivity about 10 years ago but only figured it out 5 years ago. "Healthy" is "feels healthy" and "doesn't die young", that is pretty simple.

It sounds like you think this is about hypothetical and marginal health benefits but people have very acute and immediate physical (and cognitive) issues because of disrupted gut biome that are objectively improved by cutting out, in particular, gluten. This isn't just some weird obession.

Same scam and politics as the Ancel Keys lipid-heart hypothesis. Complete BS, ego and career protectionism, resulted in the deaths of millions and most people still believe that crap.

Several years ago we had a juggling "craze" at my otherwise very stodgy corporate office. We all juggled constantly on every little break and several of us got pretty good at it. By the end a few of us were doing harder 3-ball tricks like mills mess and passing balls back and forth to each other. It was super fun. Honestly while specific tips can help, I think it mainly comes down to persistence and getting ideas from others, youtube, etc. Some ideas will click, some won't. Doing it with friends everyday helps too. It just takes time to get a really consistent throw dialed in, especially under pressure, but once you do 3-ball gets quite easy and then you can focus more on goofing around and trying new things.

This is ultimately about the inherently pernicious nature of unregulated capitalism. Businesses want money. They get that by manipulating you, the consumer, to consume their services. They are "ethically" bound by (given an excuse by) fiduciary duty to pursue profit callously.

The result, in these corner cases where eating people is profitable? Shelob.

So... should we all sue Youtube and Meta now? This is a semi-serious, follow this precedent to its logical conclusion, question.

I do and did know about backpacking around Seattle (and the Sierra Nevadas, and the Uintas). I should have been more clear that I wasn't trying to make a comment about Everest expeditions, my comment is about extrapolating generally to "modern equipment is a scam" to an audience that is 99% people who do medium to low seriousness backpacking - who would in 1985 have been sleeping in canvas tents with cotton lined bags, just like I was.

I remember sleeping in old canvas tents - in the heavy rain - on boyscout camping trips around seattle as a kid. I remember waking up in a puddle, cotton lined bag soaked through, not being dry even after 12 hours of laying it out after the rain stopped.

By comparison my RIE UL2 is 100x, no 1000x better in every single way. Same for my 15 degree duck down mummy.

Are sweaters better now than then?? I don't know, maybe. But seriously, get out of here with the general notion that 19** is within a hundred miles of good modern backpacking gear.

About boots, unless you are in snow, boots are scam. Period full stop with whatever expansive definition you want to use. Comfy $30 sneakers from Big 5 are great. I do have some trail running shoes I use personally that cost me about $100. I'm sure they had great options 100 years ago.

Gofundme? This woman needs some $$ and a lawyer. She may not know it yet, but if she makes some smart moves, she's about to be rich and Fargo is about to learn a very hard lesson.

I believe all the stories here about how these drugs helped with their addiction. However I will say I have not experienced this with food addiction which is interesting. I definitely eat less, but when I am hungry I'm still just as likely to eat peanut butter cups or french fries.

Boogeyman

I love this but I think you'll be surprised at your success rate. Everyone is struggling with this, not just you. Right on the heels of covid we were debating whether to have a NYE party or just go to a friend's house for a low key thing. We were paralyzed a bit feeling like, why we weren't invited to other parties ourselves? Won't everyone already be busy doing other stuff? In the end my wife took the leap and invited a ton of neighbors and friends. Guess what?? Almost everyone showed up! Which means all those people were going to be sitting at home feeling bad and wondering the same thing. You just need to believe and get over it, people want to hang out. We've all just gotten out of the habit.

Is this really about Tiktok or about AI and how people are consuming the web? Used to be all web, then web+Tiktok,etc, now only AI+Tiktok, etc? I think I go to normal websites way less than I used to. Maybe everyone is doing that?

Starve the beast, vilify it for being weak, then kill it.

Here is the big question: How profitable would this be for big pharma if it really worked? If the answer isn't an enormous number, this isn't going anywhere beyond the researchers who published their work.

lol, I love this take! I honestly have never used Svelt but you hear so much fanboi love for it I assumed it actually was awesome! If Svelt is a hipster scam, that would be hilarious. Anyone else able to corroborate or refute this claim?

I personally like React with just React Router 7 in framework mode (Remix). So simple, so intuitive, just works, paper thing abstractions over stuff everyone already knows how to do. (Next.js OTOH I do not love)

stupid website hijackes cmd-back-arrow.

Why the downvotes? That jobs will be lost is fact. Does this represent an increase in wealth concentration? Obviously. Is that a net bad? I don't know, let's discuss instead of silencing people.

"Claude recalls by only referring to your raw conversation history. There are no AI-generated summaries or compressed profiles—just real-time searches through your actual past chats."

AKA, Claude is doing vector search. Instead of asking it about "Chandni Chowk", ask it about "my coworker I was having issues with" and it will miss. Hard. No summaries or built up profiles, no knowledge graphs. This isn't an expert feature, this means it just doesn't work very well.

Lol, are you serious? Can you elaborate on your thinking here? Are you suggesting Trump imposed tariffs out of some altruistic goal of reducing waste or the social impacts of consumerism?? That can't be right. What is the motivation in your mind?

Very good article. However I think a huge factor is being ignored. The most pernicious side effect of falling prices isn't pullback in investment and construction. It's the immense leverage lender and builder lobbies will apply through decades of regulatory capture, and the massive outcry that will come from homeowners who have bought into the idea that real estate is a great way to build wealth. Anything that results in lower prices will result in damaging the wealth of millions, of the group of Americans that probably has 99% of the wealth and political power. Yeah that won't fly. And I agree the "correction" is overdue and those wealthy boomers whose wealth has doubled and tripled since retirement just by riding that wave (and the stock market, another ponzi scheme) should transfer some of that wealth back to the masses in the form of depreciation. But it won't happen. Not in America, not without something horrible happening to make them give up that wealth.

I rarely hear people talk about the fact that demand for new software will increase exponentially as cost to produce software crash. The ratios of devs_per_1k_lines_of_code_in_2022:devs_per_1k_lines_of_code_in_2028 and increase_in_demand:decrease_in_cost are unknown. But what if 1 dev could produce 300% more code, reducing eng cost (assuming same cost per hour per dev) to 1/3 of historical norms. Would that result in an increase of 20% in demand? Probably not, more like 1000%.

If that's the case, there is a large net increase in demand for experienced devs who know how to use AI for coding. Demand will go up massively, I have zero doubt of that, but will AI get so much better that unskilled MBAs are making large complex apps? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Two words: "Health Insurance"

I love this! A couple little points:

- After someone selects the right country, you should add country labels to the map for a second or two before transitioning so that context can reinforce the learning ("oh it's right next to Chile!") - Maybe show sattelite view for the same reason? So people can learn to ID countries by mountain ranges, lakes, etc?

Is this your first hand knowledge or are you just assuming your worldview applies to this situation?

This is 100% true. Lidar improves accuracy by millimeters up close, inches at 10-50 feet away and feet beyond that. That accuracy is more than sufficient. Recognition and classification of objects is not improved at all (that part that matters). And, like parent post said, tesla classifies everything very very well, the real issue is that the planner acts completely crazy all the time and is scary.

Blackbird Studios | Sr Developers and Design-gineer | Remote in Americas or Western Europe | Contract to hire

Blackbird is a software dev studio specialized in a Human Centered approach to launching totally new, high-impact software products for a wide variety of public and private sector clients, from early stage startups to Fortune 50 companies. We don’t do marketing sites! We build complex, cool, interactive fullstack web and mobile applications that are fun to build, challenging, and that people use every day. We work directly with brands or through partnerships with some of the top design studios in the world (like IDEO).

Blackbird is very different from most other software studios. We operate in very collaborative and strategic relationships with our clients and partners which gives us a uniquely strategic seat at the table and the opportunity to regularly deep dive into a new interesting understanding of our client's business, then build, launch, and evolve new software products from the ground up.

Our services include CTO consulting, software development, UX/UI, training and capabilities building. We work with large and small companies/startups on projects ranging from 2-12 months with 2-10 people on each project to build full stack web, mobile, IoT, physical installations, etc. Our favorite stack is Typescript, React, React Native, Node (recently loving Remix!). We also use a wide range of other tech as needed since we face a pretty diverse set of challenges. Recent and upcoming examples: Flutter, Elixir/Phoenix, Rails, Swift, and Kotlin. We are a remote-first company but with very active collaboration on video and Slack. Occasional travel to San Francisco and other locations is part of the job for project kickoffs and other critical collaboration phases or meetings.

We are looking for people who are excited about building great software products, who are great teammates, and who are passionate about continuously refining best practices for creating successful digital products. Experience in dev team leadership, new product development, collaboration with business and design stakeholders, and consulting experience are not required but are all huge plusses.

Specifically, right now we are looking for:

- Sr full stack developers

- Lead level full stack devs with experience in team leadership roles

- A design-gineer.

For that last role, we're working on a cool internal design-tech project and need an awesome UX designer who also understands code and dev workflow.

Interested? We want to hear from you! Please send resume, Github, or LinkedIn to [email protected]. I am a founder so ask me anything! If there are other aspects of what we do that interest you definitely still hit me up!

They know we are watching.
