Definitely won’t feed through into the cost of everything we eat, drink, wear, use for healthcare or work or leisure …

2/2 …I distilled it simplistically to: Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are individual goals, you can have them while denying others the same. This is not true of Peace, Order, and Good Governance. 2/2

Commands around the world, including U.S. Central Command in the Middle East, use Anthropic’s Claude AI tool, people familiar with the matter confirmed. Centcom declined to comment about specific systems being used in its ongoing operation against Iran.

The command uses the tool for intelligence assessments, target identification and simulating battle scenarios even as tension between the company and Pentagon ratcheted up, the people said, highlighting how embedded the AI tools are in military operations.

The WSJ is reporting that AI, specifically Claude, was used in targeting for the attacks by the Epstein Empire.

That would mean the use of AI led directly to the massacre of 115 schoolchildren and 20 volleyball players.

You can find people like this for literally every form of progress ever. When will we stop giving the opponents of progress disproportional media coverage?

Using our "4/5" split massing single stair prototype - assuming the city allows something like a 1.6FSR density as a baseline - it could also be 1.75 FSR with the additional 10% density bonus (for passive house / low embodied carbon)

You lose a bit of shared rear yard space but gain larger units.

continues to be very funny that vancouver built a brand new neighbourhood on the edge of the city and after a decade there’s no school or community centre or transit and the developer in charge of everything is pulling out

good job good effort

There are 86 million family households and 49 million non-family households (which average 1.34 adults).

The gap between current household size and the long-term trend is about 15 million adults, which would have formed about 11 million non-family households if they averaged 1.34 adults.
