Oof. What's the prognosis?

Someone cheated on their YC interview with the help of your open source project whose purpose is to help people cheat on interviews? Sounds like it's working as intended.

Reread your post and I'm still not getting it. What was the point?

Donations from one person aren't going to do much good. At best, it'll provide a bit of short term relief. The system that enables billionaires to exist is still in place, which means they'll just suck up anything that this one person donates, leaving us with one less caring person capable of enacting further change and amoral corporations becoming more powerful.

We need to change the system so that everyone contributes. It makes little sense for any single person to contribute when no one else does because you gain much less than what you put in, but if everyone contributes, then you get the opposite scenario where everyone gains more than what they put in. That's why taxes exist in the first place.

We have healthcare figured out for the most part. The issue here is housing.

Wine is also so easy and cheap to make at home. The only reason to buy commercial wines is if you're picky about the specific flavours. How many people do you know that are that picky? Pretty much everyone I know enjoys some wine on occasion and not a single one of them care about what kind of wine is served.

I'd add that they also have your roommate at knife point. I don't think it changes the answer too much, but it's closer to the scenario that OP is probably thinking about.

I just want predictable prices when I go out to eat. I don't want to find out after getting the bill that your idea of a reasonable tip for good service is 25%.

Sounds like we need instance level karma where instances can upvote/downvote other instances, and user karma is scaled based on that number. I don't know if it'll be healthy, but it does sound like fun, especially if users get a say in the instance's vote.

The training data anthropomorphizes the LLMs, so you'll get the best results by doing the same.

The way I understand it (based on some introspection and reading the experiences of other autistic people), it's not a matter of ability to process information but rather the inability to not process information. We don't have the innate ability to recognize what's important and what isn't, which hinders our ability to recognize that two situations are the same and should be handled the same way. Asking "why?" is an attempt at understanding the pattern so that we can generalize in the same way as other non-autistics instead of memorizing every individual situation.
