Mises gave us the recipe for civilization: 1. Civilization requires economic calculation 2. Calculation requires prices 3. Prices require markets 4. Markets require exchange 5. Exchange requires private property Therefore: No private property → no prices → no calculation

I'm devastated. This is a massive loss for the world of chess. 😢

@zerohedge True. That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy.

what was he "guilty" of? cogent arguments causing cognitive dissonance.

these gpt-5 numbers are insane 🤯

It's spelled "Artifice Intelligence".

Im so fucking done with AI. Useless fucking shit. Cant even do the most basic things without fucking up. Anyone who says AI can code at even graduate level is just outing themselves as a fucking third rate fake programmer

Where capitalism dwells, there is my country.

Customers get mad at grocery store prices because they can't see the Fed. Investors get happy about rising stock prices because they can't see the Fed. And everyone is confused about housing prices because they can't see the Fed. But you can.

Food, shelter, and drinkable water must be produced by the work of others. Therefore, to say everyone "deserves" these things is to say that everyone deserves to have other people work on their behalf. Required in any such altruistic impulse is coercion, since it inevitably

Those who desire progress and prosperity for the greatest number of people will ask for more inequality, because it’s one of the best measures of OPPORTUNITY, the great equalizer! Capitalism is the only economic system that actually delivers on the promises of socialism. Said

No one has ever 100% vibe-coded something actually useful Prove me wrong

AI is for syntax, Humans are for semantics.

startup wanted: terraform but with proper variable management :/ terraform has no concept of globals so you're constantly re-declaring, re-describing, and re-validating variables as you pipe them to child modules. gross and doesn't really provide encapsulation either.

the simulation theory -> THE PROMPT THEORY This is the single best Veo 3 video I've seen. SOUND ON.

Vibe coding sure seems to require a lot thinking about software design, considering how systems should fit together, schema planning, code quality, product, testing, optimization, etc. Can't imagine what engineers are going to do soon.

The fact that AIs are so much better at frontend than backend code enforces the idea that the bottleneck is training data and not general reasoning strength.
