How do you know this person isn’t at least somewhat well versed in the related fields? For all we know they have a double major?

curious, did changing the battery make the phone faster under the latest OS?

If find that after the upgrade to the latest iOS my 13 mini has been struggling with framerate and just overall feeling laggy.

> A new civil war that drives the US to fragment into several independent regions over the course of the next ~five years would kind of be the best scenario from a global perspective.

The US isn't going to passively give up its hold on the world order. You don't think this would trigger a world war?

And if / when the US does topple (whether in 10 years or in 1000 years), at the moment it looks like the only viable next leaders in the world order are autocratic dictatorships.

How is this a best scenario from a global perspective?

The same could be said of corporations who aren’t required to report pollution and thus exploit because it’s legal. Morality isn’t encoded in most agreements.

It's public knowledge that he's a prof at stanford and publicly available directories can lead you to his office. Not to mention that he's famous enough that this is almost certainly not the first time someone shares a photo like this.

If it was a photo of his home I'd understand but this is essentially public knowledge.

I am no expert, but I am in the process of transitioning over to NextJS. Reason being it's quite opinionated on how to structure your app / blog and you can produce a completely static website with it - not to mention that there is a very large community to learn and lean on if you get stuck.

Increasing wages is itself inflationary. If the costs of a company increase then so too do the price of their product or service. I’m not disagreeing that we shouldn’t increase wages, but I just want to point out that wages and inflation are correlated.

The majority of the world is still using Google to search the web [0], including high school students (let's also think about high school students outside of North America).

Same question here - what about something like AppEngine (or Elastic Beanstalk)?

If you host your code on GitHub and the like, then your code is already being read by a centralized mega-corp.

This isn't 100% true - unless you're using a json-schema --> types package then there's a risk of your documentation not aligning with your types.

IIRC Altman has no financial stake in the success or failure of OpenAI to prevent these sorts of conflicts of interests between OpenAI and society as a whole
