California's solar duck curve has gotten deeper every year. Now, there's pretty much zero demand for electricity from the grid during the middle of the day.

Report - block Report - block Report - block Report - block Report - block I report every one, and they keep coming. How stupid and lazy are the "algorithms" that keep spamming me with ads and bots wanting to show me naked women? Never had this problem pre Musk

Another one-function tool built on iroh. We legitimately use this all the time at work, mainly to send log files, sometimes memes, but usually just giant files of logs.

Merge vs. Rebase vs. Squash. Anyone who says "100% of the time you <merge/rebase/squash>" is wrong and I'm strong in that opinion. I'm asked about this pretty regularly, so I decided to take my copy paste answer I always use and put it in a gist. 🍿 gist.github.com/mitchellh/31…

We cannot rule out the possibility that radio communication will alert hostile alien superintelligences to our whereabouts, triggering an invasion posing an existential risk to humanity. Therefore we must carefully regulate radio technology until we have better planetary defenses

Please remind me how we are moving forward. In this video, a machine from the year ~2000 (600MHz, 128MB RAM, spinning-rust hard disk) running Windows NT 3.51. Note how incredibly snappy opening apps is. 👇

“we already know how to align superintelligences, it’s called corporate law” first of all, no, corporations still have many negative externalities second, remember the very first time humanity launched a powerful corporation? it amassed an army and took over multiple countries
I'm actually concerned that a much more competent version of the East India Company would have created a permanent dystopia for all of humanity, so I'm not persuaded by "we've governed corporations fine without running into X-risk, so there's no risk from superintelligent AI"

Tech hype misstates the significance of singularities - in practice, it simply means another factor not in your model eventually dominates and becomes rate limiting

I just realized I can add 'Pallas' to literally anything in Dall-E 2 to make it round and fluffy. It doesn't get that a Pallas Cat is a specific animal. It thinks Pallas is an adjective that describes the look of that specific type of cat. Fuck. Fuck this is so powerful fuck.

the staggering majority of tech advancements in the last decade is simply reimplementing things with slightly better presentation and i think that's beautiful

"We're on the path toward being a 3,000-person rent-seeking company, but we could do more good for more people as a 30-person company building a focused product." No one gets promoted for thinking or saying this, so it's unthinkable in most companies.
