BUT it still occasionally rewrites your entire code base for to fix a button

I think that's how it should work in many situations. Iterating on code is not strictly necessary when you have agents that can reason about and output thousands of lines of code in minutes. Any new requirement has the potential to result in architecture-breaking changes that may be best solved through a complete rewrite. What happens with the code in the implementation may not, in a completely spec-driven scenario, be relevant at all assuming no human developers are expected to work on it.

I am not sure what you're referring to, but the bizarre self-censoring of even mildly offensive words like "suicide" and "prostitute" on Youtube is getting to a point where it's almost comical. I am not sure if this is a result of actual rules that Youtube enforces, or if it's creator paranoia.

"How does adding huge demand on electricity lower the cost of electricity?"

An increase in demand could encourage the creation of new local infrastructure that could lead to lower electricity prices in the long run. While I am not trying to defend the obvious datacenter propaganda, it is important to point out that the economy is like a dynamical system, and things are not always as straightforward as readily assumed.

Comment Not everything is name based (Score 2) 233

"These days the Domain Name Service (DNS) is the service selector, not the IP address," Huston told The Register. "The entire security framework of today's Internet is name based and the world of authentication and channel encryption is based on service names, not IP addresses."

We are so used to the constraints put on us by IPv4 that we don't even consider what opportunities open up when every single device on the planet has its own globally routed IP address. It's like an abusive relationship. Not all service resolution works on name based principles, nor is it necessarily the best way in all cases (for example in P2P scenarios). Overlay networks, NAT and private addressing are often not really desirable nor strictly necessary, and this fact should affect how we reason about a future internet.
