You give these morons way too much credit. While you correctly detailed the effects of the tariffs, none of it was planned. They all just latched on to the idea of tariffs for different reasons (Navarro because he actually believes it is sound economic policy, Trump because the power excites him) but these idiots had no foresight into what would actually happen.

Never mistake something working out for the Trump administration as competence. If these idiots were competent, things would be much worse.

I think the hack really happened. I do not think it was some rogue AI. I do expect that the next time OpenAI gets caught hacking they will have their rogue AI excuse locked and loaded.

If you look at this and the recent case with Apple (or even the case where they unsuccessfully tried to remove Altman) , it is clear that OpenAI views the law as a challenge to work around, not rules to follow. It is very Microsoft of them.

These are the same lazy dolts that call them selves "Software Engineer" yet don't know shit on how software actual works beyond an ID, don't understand software developer ethics, and think the can be sloppy because "computers have a lot of RAM" completely blind to the idea there janky ass software isn't the only thing running on a computer.

Modern IDEs have lead to this industry being full undisciplined half wits.

I literally do. Stop being bad at your job.

"I know it is counter to modern coding practices"
it is not. It's literally best practice. Coders not doing this are bad at their job, and should be fired.

Why do you go with option 3? Option 2 sounds the most plausible to me.

Option 3 sounds like: Well, officer, I was walking behind my wife carrying this bowling ball and we were at the top of the stairs when I tripped over my untied shoelace, which pushed her down the stairs and she was severely injured and would have survived if not for the bowling ball, which I dropped when I tripped and it bounced down the stairs and crushed her head.

I doubt it was set up by both parties, but Hugging Face is clearly bullshitting with the way they are just going along with the OpenAI excuse.

The most simple explanation is usually the right one: OpenAI hacked Hugging Face, trying to cheat on the metrics. They got caught and Hugging Face reported it because they did not realize it was OpenAI. Once they found out it was OpenAI, they could not undo the reporting, and they view OpenAI as too important a partner to initiate a legal complaint against them, so they agreed to go along with whatever spin OpenAI put on this thing.

The really terrifying thing is that OpenAI has demonstrated that, as a company, they do not believe in any legal or ethical limitations to their conduct. They are probably doing much worse things.

Please look up what 3rd world means.

Data centers need to pay for their own energy increase, be closed cooling systems, and not allow withing 5 miles of a residential area, and residence can't be built within 5 miles of a data center.

A contagion tube that slower and vastly more inconvenient. Plus a bigger polluter.
People pushing for everyone to get on the bus have no clue about buses.

It's just a matter of time. You aren't going to ae a car that receives less then 1 percent of sales. For example.

OH no, did the EV boogie man make an EV model of a car you like? tell, is this EV boogie man in the room with you right now?
Electric mustang concept is fine. There implementation was poor.
