  @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber brother, LLMs produce too much slop for me, so it's all relative.

  @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber the thing to keep in mind is that while apple loves to LOOK futuristic, they actually care about other things.

  Ya but thing about Siri is it doesn't actually like ... work. I use chatgpt all of the time, mainly as a more advanced version of search: I ask a question that you can get the answer by searching, but I don't want to read 10 pages of LLM slop to find my answer, so I let GPT do it.
  
  BUT, Siri voice activation thing is just DOA.

  I often have questions which the answer exists somewhere, but I'm not motivated to look it up.
  
  > What's the Kwh per KG of energy in wheat straw?
  
  > What's a good recipe for making a NYC style pizza dough?
  
  > Can I get a credit card with a good interest rate if I have someone provide a guarantee on the debt?
  
  (Those are questions I was asking today)

  @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber I wonder why straw is so much cheaper. trees in general take way less work to grow

  Guess I will eventually...
  
  Oh and BTW "energy density of straw" => straw is 40% cheaper than firewood, so doing a woodgas generator / outdoor boiler that runs on round bails would be pretty rad

  Firewood almost by definition requires a certain amount of manual labor, but wheat planting & harvest is 100% automated, and #2 straw is basically a byproduct.

  80 tons of wood at $1,542 per acre. I assume that is log weight.

  @christmasman @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber I've only seen a little of reasoning, and I know people care about not running heavy equipment over things.
  
  But the critical thing to keep in mind is that in Scandinavian countries they've been managing forest for over 1,000 years. Lots of time to optimize things.

  @sickburnbro @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber It's sad just how few North American timber managers have brought over all the harvesting tool that they use in Scandinavian countries. Lightyears ahead in tree felling technology, and here we are still using handheld chainsaws and manually de-limbing.

    Today we visit Matt from firewood guy to check out a new splitter he got from Pinosa an Italian company. It is a progressive style x wedge splitter and I’ve ...

  Europeans in general do a lot more inventing of labor-saving tech. The best splitter right now is a computerized electric thing that basically looks at your rounds as they feed through on the belt and it decided how far to advance before sending the ram for each split. And that's an Italian machine.

  America never stopped being a slave nation.
  
  Btw. Slavery was technically never abolished, the 14th amendment moved it into the prison system.

  @pepsi_man @cjd @Shadowman311 @WandererUber @caekislove @christmasman I mean, I don't think our labor is actually that cheap. I think we just structure costs differently so it's not apples to apples.

  @cjd @caekislove @Shadowman311 @WandererUber @christmasman it's crazy to look at the types of machines people were inventing in the US in the 1910-1960s. Then post end of space age nasa when it was decided we were going to throw everything into "muh equality" we stopped making expensive things.
  
  Because if you have a expensive piece of equipment, dumb people will break it and smart people won't.
  
  So we couldn't have that.

  Also European labor is expensive because payroll taxes are roughly equal to the paycheck itself. The US is really focused on cheap labor, so they end up not adopting a lot of stuff like that.

  I never understood the concept of slavery. You still have to manage the people, and they hate their job so management is 10x harder, and you're making them do shit that the Japanese probably already have a robot for. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
