I know I'm personally just tired of trying to converse with people with heads in the sand. AI saves me shit tons of time daily. If they can't figure it out, so be it. The level of absolute denial in HN AI threads is bizarre. One guess is that hacker nerds have their entire personality tied to being a smart haxor. That is being commoditized and they are getting defensive about it. It's telling that the image/video AI threads are nothing like that because it's not their profession being talked about.
How is it stolen from Business Insider? When I visit businessinsider.com/anthropic-cut-pirated-millions-used-books-train-claude-copyright-2025-6 I get the same story. My browser caches the story, and I save it for archival purposes. How is this theft?
BI decides who can access this content and who will get the paywall. The link to archive page allows people to access this content without permission. That’s called stealing.
When I hop on a VPN and enter ingconito mode from a clean browser session, bypassing their paywall, is that stealing? This doesn't meet the definition of stealing that I'm familiar with.
People always claim that the weather “now” is somehow special. No matter when “now” is, the weather always seems unique to us. You can read people’s thoughts on weather from any century and it sounds very similar to what we are saying now.
Any resources people could share about the engineering of the cybertruck? I don’t know too much about cars in general but I want to know if there is anything interesting in this one.
Most trucks are body-on-frame, i.e. there's a structural frame with a non-structrual body on top. Tesla claims to use an "exoskeleton" approach, which is either a fancy name for unibody or something that goes beyond the unibody approach.
They're also using unpainted 3mm stainless steel directly on the exterior. Painted thin sheet surfaces are much easier to fix when dented (since you can use filler and hide it with the paint).
One downside is that these two things make any damage to the Cybertruck expensive or impossible to fix.
Their production method (relying on massive die cast presses) isn't specific to the Cybertruck, but the presses that were supposed to be meant for Cybertruck apparently were setting new records.
EuroNCAP has a standardized 'Vulnerable Road User' (VRU) test protocol since at least 2012. [0]
This vehicle will absolutely fail every single specified test.
Anyone buying this should first come to terms with the fact that it is not a rational purchase, rather than trying to post-rationalize reasons to do so.
