Will you send me an AMD395+ or a new Mac that can handle the local models? That would probably be enough for me.

The government looks at your transactions as designed to produce that outcome and claws back the money from your children.

Transactions designed to fraudulently hide assets can be reversed. Otherwise you could gift all your assets to your brother then declare bankruptcy.

That's why all news stories are supposed to be reviewed before publication by a second person

> How come this is trying to install its own vendored dependencies

"Why does this new software do X?" is probably answered by "the vibe worked on my system"

Not trying to sound like a luddite (I don't "vibe code" but I use LLM assistance), but after learning that Claude Code is a React app, I'm not surprised by anything anymore.

> You would be talking multiple six figures a year to maintain such a thing.

A trillion dollar company can afford it, as can the profits from a supercharger station. Plus, you can limit it to people who are paying to charge their cars (or their passengers).

I mean why would they.

If they lived in fantasy land with reasonable permitting and running a toilet ment paying for toilet paper, soap, and a janitor to clean it once a day I'm sure they would for the PR win and to sell a few extra Teslas.

In San Francisco as discussed in the article this would be an expensive permitting hassle, endless money sink, target for abuse, bad PR from people complaining about unsafe and unclean toilets, and a legal risk if any incidents happen.

Doing it well (so the toilets are clean and safe) obviously costs money. And obviously Tesla would prefer not to pay money. I don't think that's the issue you think it is. Tons of pollution mitigation efforts cost money that companies don't want to pay and yet work because of laws requiring them.

My city tried to force a public toilets ordinance on local businesses. Those businesses either ignored it or converted to take out only or other business models where they were not bound by the law.

It got rolled back pretty quick.

Plenty of businesses will simply call your bluff for such silliness. They do not exist to solve social issues local government created in the first place.

If local governments can’t even afford to keep public restrooms going at parks, public transit stations, etc. it’s not reasonable to expect businesses to shoulder that cost for them.

Tesla Superchargers aren't going to be able to convert to take out only or other business models

Such businesses will close shop.

Tesla superchargers make enough that they can cover the cost of bathrooms and still be profitable.

Keeping them clean is the easy part. Doing it well would require building the infrastructure, maintenance, manning the station, preventing drug abuse etc, and getting into liabilities due to said abuse.

Tons of businesses stop doing business if they are forced into efforts that dont make money. The city/state should own sanitation. Not private companies.

> Thats the way SFPD worded it to me after repeatedly failing to act on my reports (such as a woman urinating in front of my child on a sidewalk near an sf muni bus stop). Nudity is legal.

Section 154 generally made nudity on public sidewalks or at bus stops illegal since 2012. Either your story is old or the cops are misinformed.

50% chance of winning, but there is a rake from the site.

Whatever you want to say about other companies, Amazon (and Meta) is quite willing to spend many years pouring billions into technology they think will pay off later.

Looking at VR and Meta. They absolutely can be wrong. So even after investing what seems to be enough, there might not be any payoff.

There may be no payoff in the end, but it won't be for lack of resources thrown at the problem or investor impatience.

And the investors were correct to crush the stock price down to 90-odd dollars. Which finally forced Zuck to face the music.

This place is full of bozos.

Did Zuck change because the stock price went down or he was dissatisfied with the lack of progress/adoption?

Consumers wouldn't. Importers will.

Indeed. And the concept of passing any refund on is just untenable. My example is to highlight how unreasonable such an expectation is.

And while this specific tariff situation is silly, and annoying, it's been going on forever. There were cases of tariffs on lumber from Canada, with presidents of all stripes. Some were fought, won in court, and nary a person questioned "where is the refund for the consumer".

> The icing on the cake is that LLMs are producing so much code that humans are just rubber stamping all of it.

I don't understand the value of that much code. What features are worth that much more than stability?
