Really? The VC ecosystem and most of tech leadership is pretty alt to hard right now.

IMO that is different than rank-and-file. My theory is that once you make a certain amount of money you run a high risk of becoming divorced from reality.

Most of tech leadership blows with the wind, they have no firm beliefs. Whatever drives shareholder value. See Zuck. Although I do agree those more to the right have been emboldened to speak up a little more. I think the vast majority of the rank and file including managers are still on the left

I think it's useful to separate "tech" from "the VC ecosystem" and "most of tech leadership", the former being a huge range of people, while the latter two being a small group comparatively.

Not to mention HN is yet another sub-section of the "tech" ecosystem with a small cross-section of VC and startups, although that was indeed the focus on the beginning, I think the scope of HN has grown quite a lot since its beginnings.

Question - isn't P(Hitting | Human Driving) still less than P(Hitting | Tesla FSD) in this particular case [given that if this particular situation comes up - Tesla will fail always whereas some / many humans would not]?

Isn’t the underlying assumption here that supply is essentially infinite (or at least comparable to demand)? I think is the underlying assumption with any such statement. If the assumption doesn’t hold true then I am not sure the statement holds true (perhaps only till there is some supply).

No, that's not the assumption. The assumption is that higher prices will draw out more supplies. This is how a free market works.

Well that assumes that there are more suppliers available (within the time period under consideration). Over what time period do we assume that more suppliers will be drawn out? An hour? A day? A month?

Given that hosts routinely take their units off market for various reasons, people who have been on the edge of renting out via Airbnb, etc. I'd say the supply increase can be quite substantial. I don't have the data. Only Airbnb does.

This is a case of China trying to reduce pollution. Reduce aerosol emissions. The impact of this is lower cooling (aerosol interaction results in atmospheric cooling)

What’s a multi-turn prompt?

I assume they mean that you send an Array<Message> to the model instead of a single system and user message.

He has bankrupted a few casinos. So, he is pretty good at poker.

Bankrupting a business where you have a mathematically insurmountable edge is actually impressive.

It would be useful for laundering.

Large casinos are very expensive to build and operate. Even if they have favorable gross margins (the house edge), its pretty easy to lose money net of expenses.

Do you have evidence for NC disaster services being worse than CA disaster services (as provided by the Federal government)?

We wouldn’t know this if the information isn’t shared? So, aren’t you making a case for not removing this information?

GDP PPP is based on assumptions that - 1) People indifferent countries have the same basket of goods - probably not true for someone living in US vs Chine vs India 2) Accurate pricing data is available (which is not true for big categories like real estate in India and China - a large part of the price is under the table and unaccounted)
