Awesome! I will ship it to you tomorrow morning!
I can ship it to you if you can pay for shipping. I put it up on ebay since it makes the process easier: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/136814774452
It was a reasonable assumption, but the distribution didn’t pan out that way.
It is 49% of the population. I did the math: https://lemmy.ca/post/56198025/20385158
I did the math and it’s 49.37% of the population, based on the 2024 census data, or 49.94% if you exclude Puerto Rico and D.C. I suppose mostly due to Texas and Florida being in the list, but also Ohio, Georgia and North Carolina with over 10M people each.
Here's the raw data
Based on the table from Wikipedia, and the list of states in the article.
State Population (2024) Requires Age Verification Population Requiring Age Verification California 39,431,263 0 Texas 31,290,831 x 31,290,831 Florida 23,372,215 x 23,372,215 New York 19,867,248 0 Pennsylvania 13,078,751 0 Illinois 12,710,158 0 Ohio 11,883,304 x 11,883,304 Georgia 11,180,878 x 11,180,878 North Carolina 11,046,024 x 11,046,024 Michigan 10,140,459 0 New Jersey 9,500,851 0 Virginia 8,868,896 x 8,868,896 Washington 7,958,180 0 Arizona 7,582,384 x 7,582,384 Tennessee 7,227,750 x 7,227,750 Massachusetts 7,136,171 0 Indiana 6,924,275 x 6,924,275 Maryland 6,263,220 0 Missouri 6,245,466 x 6,245,466 Wisconsin 5,960,975 0 Colorado 5,957,493 0 Minnesota 5,793,151 0 South Carolina 5,478,831 x 5,478,831 Alabama 5,157,699 x 5,157,699 Louisiana 4,597,740 x 4,597,740 Kentucky 4,588,372 x 4,588,372 Oregon 4,272,371 0 Oklahoma 4,095,393 x 4,095,393 Connecticut 3,675,069 0 Utah 3,503,613 x 3,503,613 Nevada 3,267,467 0 Iowa 3,241,488 0 Puerto Rico 3,203,295 0 Arkansas 3,088,354 x 3,088,354 Kansas 2,970,606 x 2,970,606 Mississippi 2,943,045 x 2,943,045 New Mexico 2,130,256 0 Nebraska 2,005,465 x 2,005,465 Idaho 2,001,619 x 2,001,619 West Virginia 1,712,278 0 Hawaii 1,446,146 0 New Hampshire 1,409,032 0 Maine 1,405,012 0 Montana 1,137,233 x 1,137,233 Rhode Island 1,112,308 0 Delaware 1,051,917 0 South Dakota 924,669 x 924,669 North Dakota 796,568 x 796,568 Alaska 740,133 0 District of Columbia 702,250 0 Vermont 648,493 0 Wyoming 587,618 x 587,618 343,314,283 169,498,848 49.37%
I’d like the bubble to be true so that we can move past this nonsense phase, and it may well be true, but I could also see it being extended for years potentially, since there’s so much money being pumped into it, and governments are also buying into the hype.
You and I are not at odds, friend. I think you’re assuming I want to ban the technology out right. It’s possible to call out the issues with something without being wholly against it. I’m sure you would want to prevent these deaths as well.
A friendly human spell checked me and probably used less than a peanut worth of energy.
Whoops. Fixed, thanks.
Excellent read. Thanks for the link.

3·1 month agoI’d recommend looking at Hedy. It was created to teach kids programming, with a smooth ramp from simple English-like statements all they way to full python, with formal syntax introduced very gradually.

As a bonus, it also allows non-English speakers to use keywords in their native language.
4·2 months agoLooks like they didn’t sponsor Omarchy, but they did promote it on their twitter a couple of times: https://x.com/FrameworkPuter/status/1960029405067313546
Omarchy uses Hyprland, so I guess they started by promoting Omarchy and maybe DHH asked them to sponsor Hyprland

I think people need to appreciate that Mozilla is probably the only company in the world that will allow you to turn off ads like this, for free.
2·4 months agoI concur with the article. I’ve tried various tools but I keep coming back to text files in vim. Recently I’ve been using a
notes/directory with a bash function to quickly create and edit a named text file for a new topic. That gives me the little bit of organization and separation for isolated tasks, while still having a mainnotes.txtfile for miscellaneous notes and todos. I really like being able to stay in the terminal and using ripgrep for everything.
Sounds like Geoffrey Hinton got in Bernie’s ear and did a good job convincing him of the fears. Hinton is a good guy, but he’s drunk too much of his own kool-aid. I think the bubble will pop at some point, but I’d prefer the fear-mongering over the hype, because the AI companies and governments do need more scrutiny.
