When a company requires lot more energy, power plants are expected to produce lot more.

When a power plant produce a lot, the low consumption rates tend to get cheaper. It's gets cheaper to produce energy as the demand increases.

This is, of course, considering the input material is not scarce, like hydro power plants or wind power. Everything else (coal, oil, nuclear, gas, solar) should be easy to increase supply/demand.

Languages are lot more than speak, it also describes people and the way they interact each other.

Otherwise you will grow up inside an echo chamber, far away from reality.

People talking about politics IRL makes you understand and reason other points of views. If you can't tolerate others views, then you are clearly a radical.

While I don't care much about AI deepfakes, revenge porn can be very harmful to women, at the point of considering suicide.

This needs to be normalized at some point. While I don't like what Germany usually does, privacy about private photos/videos need to be respected

I'm surprised that Norway, a "progressive" country with a huge welfare state, is only known for their oil extraction as wealth generation.

If they don't diversify their economy, they might face the same problem as Venezuela.

I know there are weirdos everywhere, but not much related to "Hacker News"

This is into the opposite direction about what "free open-source" means.

You get that software into your computer, you are entitled to free unrestricted use or modify in any way you want.

Except by the Firefox trademark of course.

In the same way, personal liberties aren't a thing if are are unable to establish your own business

This criticism is valid for the business who wants to use AI to improve coding, code analysis or code review, documentation, emails, etc, but also for that individual who don't want to rely on 3rd party companies for AI usage.

I just don't trust those companies when you use their servers. This is not a good approach to LLM democratization.

Isn't that the principle of authoritarianism?

Sure, you have vote, you may ot many not have freedoms depending of the country, but did that person accepted that social contract?

What is the difference with slavery? The social contract is basically slavery of born children to do whatever the "nation" says. This is not different than a slave and their owner.

Taxes are already a certain percent. It doesn't make any sense to tax more or less percent to people over certain amount of money.

At the end, poor people dont want to work because they will lose all benefits and get taxed. Middle class people don't want to earn more than certain amount because they will get taxed more.

Because progressive taxes are reliant on certain income (value) or wealth, inflation makes people to pay more taxes over time.

I got some comments flagged for less than that.

- Do you realize Trump assumed less than a month ago?

Even when this government is trying to resolve the huge amount of federal waste, it is normal to wait couple of months until it stabilizes.

I remember when my country did a massive reform to the judiciary, it was entirely chaotic for few months.

Under a certain problem you can always hire more people and expect that resolves the issue, but this goes against efficiency as government doesn't have accountability (just check US debt!).

Resolving an efficiency issue is always difficult and chaotic until it stabilizes, governments around the world are known for never updating their processes. They don't even have a database for Social Security!

It will get better over time, but it will never be perfect using the current paradigm (RNG and tensors)
