> why can't you then write the solution and PR yourself?

You can. The policy explicitly allows you to use AI for understanding the codebase, debugging, etc. It just says “no AI generated content”. So if you use Claude to increase your understanding but then write your own code, that’s fine.

My actual question got a bit lost in my own reply. What I'm really driving at is: Why do people chafe against this?

There are platforms based on this idea: pay to reach a public person’s inbox, often with guaranteed responses (“guaranteed” as in “you get a response or you money back”). For example: https://mypublicinbox.com/en/

It was in LessWrong, in 2010: https://www.lesswrong.com/w/rokos-basilisk

Thanks. Was going to write a reply, but you seem to be afk for long periods of time. If you want to discuss later, let me know. :)

Hanlon’s razor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon%27s_razor

Hanlons razor has fucked us, voters tolerate unlimited malice as long as the politicians can demonstrate they are genuinely incompetent

Note that people can also abuse it as a tactic.

Not Malaga according to the article — destination was Palma de Mallorca.

> Saying “with this transformative new technology, we’re able to deliver 10x the value with half the engineers” is a much stronger message, even though it doesn’t make much sense (if this is true, why not keep your engineers and deliver 20x the value?)

I guess not every service or product needs 20x the value. That depends on the market segment, market maturity, and actual demand.

Same here, been using 50% English and 50% Spanish for months, no particular reason, just whatever feels easier at the moment. Sometimes I even switch languages in the middle of a session. I have not noticed a difference in the quality of the output.

The 6.75% interest applies from the date of judgement to the date of payment by Tesla but the inflation (from date of purchase to date of judgement) is not accounted for.

Inflation is why the awarded interest rate is 6.75%.

That rate was determined by the Consumer Credit Commissioner of Texas, which calculated it using the federal reserve rate, which itself is selected to meet an inflation goal, incorporating current inflation levels as well as the predicted inflationary effect of changing the server rate.

If inflation was zero, the interest rate would have been lower. If inflation were double, that rate would be higher.

Interest is awarded to counter the affects of inflation and the loss of opportunity cost. They aren't accounted for individually, instead inflation is part of the equation.

Yes, this is correct.

I meant that the ruling awarded interest from the date of judgement to the date of payment but does not account for Inflation between the date of purchase and the date of judgement.

I didn’t mean to imply that interest and inflation are unrelated, I was referring to the two different time periods. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

I think this is right. It incentivizes those harmed to take action early, which helps protect others as well.

He probably knows, since he is one of the authors.

Yes, I think that “after git” claim is just marketing. This is indeed just a nice frontend to git. It looks interesting and seems to solve real problems, in the same way that jj already does. But it is not a radical change.

Also if they really wanted to “replace git” I think that would be much more difficult due to network effects. Everybody is already using git.
