Virtually every diagram it makes that's over 6 nodes becomes a spaghetti mess and you can barely influence layout yourself. The default of using curves, the lack of care to prevent lines from intersecting with labels and even nodes themselves, making a plurality of graph types and shapes before DB ERDs can point arrows from/to a property, docs that aren't versioned...

For something that's become nearly universal and standard, it just feels remarkably half-baked.

I already don't care that much about IP "theft" on a good day. And it just seems weird to me that Ivan is complaining about other people copying his code (or is he talking about the *Craft projects, which are LLM Rust ports of common tools?) when his product is itself just a blatant adware copy of photoshop.

Pot, meet kettle and all that. Would Ivan be okay with Adobe using a third party he relies on to nuke Photopea due to IP infringement?

If you start phoning it in, don't be surprised if you start becoming isolated. And that can definitely be bad for you in the long term.

I don't know how to best word this in a sensitive, nuanced discussion, but it goes both ways too.

I've noticed that a lot of Indian management are blatantly nepotistic (not sure if that's the word) about hiring and promoting Indians, giving them unfair treatment above American workers. Unless those Indians are from lower castes, in which case they're treated like shit.

Any. It's not going to make your eggs any cheaper.

The market is already bearing the existing price, so all that saved money is going in an executive's pocket.

One of the strong advocates against seatbelt laws was thrown out of his car due to not wearing a seatbelt and died. The other two passengers survived with minor injuries.

And their death would go on to cause a loss to the community around them, making it an incredibly selfish act and proving why laws that mandate zero-reason-not-to common sense practices are important.

1. Lobsters don't feel pain - dunk them in boiling water alive.

2. Babies don't feel pain - mutilate their genitals without anesthesia.

3. Black people don't feel pain "the same way" (and are just after drugs).

4. Women feel too much pain (and it should be ignored).

So maybe let's take a moment to think what criteria we're going to use to make these claims. And the potential harm of the decision.

I don't choose to not want to murder people around me for fun. It's hardly a prison, I think they'll be fine.

If it can reason and make choices on execution, and especially if you plan on it being significantly smarter than all human beings, you need to teach it basic things like "don't turn all humans into paperclips".

Not murdering people is not an inherent divine command. It needs to be instilled through a (simulated) sense of morality.

Edit: And, to be clear, "just tell it not to do that" isn't quite the answer one would imagine. Since the entire paperclip factory thought experiment is that it only takes one slip up to realize how a misaligned super intelligence may cause devastating consequences.
