Now the Tylenol makers have grounds for suing RFK Jr for defamation.
Mo3 · 4 months ago
That was the plan to begin with.

Great way to dispense a few billion of taxpayer money in settlements as a favor while everyone's distracted by the story and laughing about how dumb RFK and Trump are.

They're not that dumb. Anything that seems particularly illogical has underlying motives. Look and you'll find more instances of this. Much more.

? Is this what journalism has come to? On top of calling this a spam campaign?

Your bet is that people will simply use less compute, for the first time in the history of the human race?
Mo3 · 4 months ago
No, mostly less external compute

    Fiber networks were using less
    than 0.002% of available capacity,
    with potential for 60,000x speed
    increases. It was just too early.
I doubt we will see unused GPU capacity. As soon as we can prompt "Think about the codebase over night. Try different ways to refactor it. Tomorrow, show me your best solution." we will want as much GPU time at the current rate as possible.

If a minute of GPU usage is currently $0.10, a night of GPU usage is 8 * 60 * 0.1 = $48. Which might very well be worth it for an improved codebase. Or a better design of a car. Or a better book cover. Or a better business plan.

I'd argue we very certainly will. Companies are gobbling up GPUs like there's no tomorrow, assuming demand will remain stable and continue growing indefinitely. Meanwhile LLM fatigue has started to set in, models are getting smaller and smaller and consumer hardware is getting better and better. There's no way this won't end up with a lot of idle GPUs.

Yeah they fucked Heroku hard. I used to love Heroku. Can’t imagine there’s many people still left using it now.

> Yeah they fucked Heroku hard

Surprisingly not as much as I'd thought when they took it over. They just never adjusted pricing to remain competitive. The experience is still some of the best you can get for RoR apps. But nobody in their right mind deploying a new application today would look at their insane 10 year old dyno pricing and be like - yup - reasonable

Mo3 commented on AI hype is masking recession signals in the market   axios.com/2025/09/15/ai-s... · Posted by u/toomuchtodo
cybercatgurrl · 5 months ago
this. i genuinely don’t know if the market shut me out because ai is now filling the mid tier swe roles or because of a recession. it’s so much easier to blame ai though and assume my time as a swe is over because the career ladder has been pulled up behind me
Mo3 · 5 months ago
AI is absolutely NOT filling any kind of SWE roles, especially not mid tier

Does Peertube not have federation or similar? This will never take off if users have to visit dozens of different instances each specifically for one interest of theirs.
Mo3 commented on LSD shows promise for reducing anxiety in drugmaker's midstage study   apnews.com/article/lsd-ps... · Posted by u/c420
gentooflux · 5 months ago
You get up to 3 months or so of reduced anxiety and increased sense of well-being and "interconnectedness". It has to be a full-on psychedelic episode though, micro-dosing doesn't seem to have the same effect (or much of any effect beyond placebo in my experience). ~6 hours of intensity is a bit steep, especially if you've got real baggage that's going to surface.
Mo3 · 5 months ago
Well, sometimes it's better to not be able to escape as quickly and actually have to accept and deal with it head on. At least for me personally.
