Unserious answer about a very serious event.

I don't believe a word of Sam's "I believe" section.

Ha, I was giving an AI bootcamp to a room full of people and someone asked me my opinion of Altman. I hesitated for a second and replied that I would not trust Altman further than I could throw a rock about anything.

If Graham says this guy will always stop at nothing to get whatever he wants, which I absolutely believe, then why would you trust anything that comes out of a person like that’s mouth?

Who tf is dumb enough to pay for an AI bootcamp, genuinely curious. If you're selling AI bootcamps, or whoever is, they are just as much a scam artist as Sam.

Who tf is dumb enough to not do it, though?

If I was non-tech and owned a business, and someone (reputable) offers to teach me everything I need to get up to date with the most revolutionary technology of the decade (perhaps century?) for like ... 500 dollars? Why not?

10 hours ago a post made the frontpage here [0] about how OpenAI is backing a law that "would limit liability for AI-enabled mass deaths or financial disasters". Now he's here saying he believes that "working towards prosperity for everyone, empowering all people, and advancing science and technology are moral obligations for [him]".

I know he doesn't believe a word of what he wrote in that post except, perhaps, that he cannot sleep and is pissed. I know I should be used to people openly lying with no consequence, but it still amazes me a bit.

unpopular opinion but i think it's written quite well

Perhaps by ChatGPT

It seems a bit stilted to be LLM'd.

Yes, clearly not written with his own product.

Highly disagree.

It's most of the time a question of management not caring about security or disliking the inconvenience that security can bring.

I agree as well, however for example for FOSS projects, it's exactly as you say, an inconvenience to secure and we comeback to the "I pray that no one exploit X".

FOSS projects are a different beast since contributors are working for free and no contributors might have the time to fix a security bug or review a PR fixing one.

I might add however that most companies use FOSS projects without paying for or contributing to them.

The onus is still on the final user to make sure that the code they use is safe.

Having worked for OpenAI will be the new "MindGeek" on LinkedIn.

Oats are already one of the most protein dense foods

Oats are about 15% calories from protein, 85% from carbs.

High protein foods would be: egg white (90% calories from protein), chicken breast (80%), lean fish such as cod (90%)

medium protein foods would be: fatty beef (e.g. ribeye) 50% calories from protein, cottage cheese (60%), fatty fish like salmon (55% calories from protein), whole eggs (fatty yolk plus white, 36% calories from protein), soybeans (36-40%)

low protein foods would be: lentils (30%), 2% milk (26% calories from protein), lima beans (22% protein), parmesan cheese (30%), summer squash/zuccini (24% protein), most mushrooms (25-30%).

very-low protein foods would be: rice (9%), onions (9%), winter squash (10%), red bell peppers (12-13%), sweet corn (12%)

Here, by very low, I mean if you try to get your protein from these sources, you will end up obese unless you expend extreme amounts of energy exercising or maintain serious protein deficiencies (muscle loss). You can get decent amount of protein if you are downing lentils, whole milk, parmesan, soybeans, salmon, etc, e.g. you don't need to eat high protein foods, but this is about the bottom level to get reasonable protein while maintaining reasonable weight unless you are a day laborer or expending massive calories.

At only 15% calories from protein (the rest being carbs), oats would be not much better than corn in terms of protein content per calorie consumed. Nothing wrong with eating some corn on the cob, but that's not gonna be a major source of protein for anyone unless you are willing to consume huge amounts of carbs.

I assume they mean non animal sources of protein. Of course it'll be hard for plant based foods to compete. Out of non animal sources, oatmeal is pretty good, especially as a cheap staple food no less

The human body does not grade on a curve. There is as much protein in oatmeal per calorie as there is in red bell peppers and obviously people don't cite red bell peppers as a high protein food, this is true even if for some reason they really prefer to eat red bell peppers.

If you want something from non-animal sources, go for mushrooms and soybeans, which have twice as much protein per calorie as oats. Mushrooms are an under-rated source of protein, as is cottage cheese.

If you wouldn’t mind indulging me, I’m very curious how you came to be of that opinion

They are asking for the end of end-to-end encryption so client side image hashing comparison is clearly not what they want to do.

Israel also recently killed three UN soldiers and bombarded positions a few meters away from french soldiers. The french ministry of defence wasn't exactly thrilled with this.

It's precisely because they graduated 5000+ companies that fraud is more difficult to avoid.

They scaled up massively the size of each batch and their frequency to a point where they are incapable of auditing them.

Maybe someone should start an auditing company for YC... oh

There is too much friction in the audit process… someone needs to solve this

Of course they are sending millions of pounds a day to other countries. In this case China for the panels.

They're not burning panels.

Micro grids are legal outside of Germany like in Belgium
