That's the feature, not a bug. It gives the meeting initiator a better chance of steamrolling their way to approval.

Notice the difference between meetings where people share agendas and docs ahead of time vs those where you show up and they walk you through the doc.

Sadly the laptop's too small and Chrome's too power-hungry for solar power to be an option: ⅓m width * ¼m length * 158W/m2 solar = 13W out of 67W to run it, or 19%.

Who's we? Who are they integrating with? A protocol? A business? A government?

This has been tried in a multitude of ways. There's always a bit too much friction or cost.

Definitely not the case everywhere.

We're more likely to see a theocratic movement centered on the struggle of human souls vs the soulless simulacra of AI.

A human reviewing an author's writing and then passing it off as their own isn't okay. If they make substantive edits such that it's essentially new work, then it's okay. Discussing with the author then writing their own versions is okay.

Really though what I'm after is a mass protection so consumers can understand that images they're seeing or language they're reading or hearing isn't from a primary (ie human) source. Sort of like the "actor portrayal" or "this image has been photoshopped" requirements some countries have.

A simple solution is to make triggering a "fire drill" a standard part of your on-call rotation hand-off.

I'd argue $5/user is just teaser pricing on its way to PagerDuty's $21+/user.

Regardless, cool project—happy to see more competition.

2) It's been around long enough to have made it into mainstream culture, especially via big-budget Hollywood movies.

3) The name is straightforward and approachable to laypeople. An elevator to space nicely obscures issues like its mind-boggling size, duration of transit, and even "reach space" vs "achieve orbit."

4) Picturing the structure fixed over a point on Earth seemingly sidesteps sovereign territory issues and international cooperation, further simplifying the conversation.

The Space Elevator is a gateway to megastructures more than a gateway to space.

I tell you I'll email you immediately to verify. I email you to confirm you want N $X gift cards. You do so.

Or if the inbound contact is by email, you verify by text or phone call. Or Signal/Discord/FB chat apps, etc. Heck even LinkedIn Inmail could be your verification channel.

You could still be compromised, but that'd require attackers to have significantly more access and readiness. And if you reach the other person and they're unaware, now you both have some support as you figure it out.

Is the difference that nomic's billion points are rendered entirely client-side?

Yes, it's better than doing absolutely nothing. And yes, in the strictest sense it's their fault if they ignore the warning and accidentally use it to cause harm.

But the blame really belongs with the adults in the room for allowing such an irresponsible situation in the first place.
