I went through a similar process with Home Assistant. And the kicker is that months or years down the line, you'll hit some feature that doesn't work with the Docker version (I've ran into a couple)

If the policies are public, there's a lot more transparency. eg my city of millions of people has a subreddit. The head mod bans people for criticizing a certain dog breed. This "policy" is pretty opaque, but if the AI enforced subreddit rules say "thou shalt not mention the dog's breed when commenting on articles about someone being mauled to death", more people would be familiar with the rule (and perhaps there would be more organized discussion).

I was on a subreddit for a while that voted on rules and had a rotating dictator to facilitate them. It worked decently well, although it never got to the point where the sub was brigaded. This was also pre-LLM so moderation was still a big time sink and the sub eventually fizzled out


Bad mods will ignore the rules, regardless how transparent they are.

We're talking about a multi-layer problem where every solution open another multi-layered problem.


That’s because certain dog breeds aren’t more likely to maul and saying otherwise is ignorant fear mongering.

Then the subreddit can codify that by having a policy that ignorance is a bannable offence!

Just about anywhere where these are legal, they're required to stop generating electricity if the grid goes down.

I'm not talking about islanding, I'm talking about what happens when every home has solar and the grid is producing too much electricity for their need.

Grid excesses are still a possible issue in that scenario, but the power company will not want to turn off the grid as if they go down everyone's grid tied solar does, too.



How much is your rent?

These sorts of inverters are grid-tied so they turn themselves off when theres no grid to sync to (eg during an outage). My understanding is that's the main safety issue, and backfeeding while the grid is up is mostly a regulatory concern (as long as you have a modern meter that can tell the difference between electricity going in vs out)

I think it's mostly for cases where people get 95% of the energy from solar but stay connected to the grid. The fixed costs of a house's connection to the grid are roughly constant, but historically utilities amortized it in their energy prices. We saw something similar in my area during the California droughts when people were "too good" at conserving water, but I guess a lot of the infra costs don't scale linearly with usage

Likely also depends on whether you get your power from a Co-op, investor-owned utility, or some other source. The IOUs will definitely want to amortize infra investment, whereas coops might be more focused on best-power-for-price for consumers, etc.

It impacts the experience when you try to resise a window and can't find the corner lol

Funnily enough FB already has the patent for this: using LLMs for "simulating the user when the user is absent from the social networking system, for example... if the user is deceased."

Oh, so they're not even hiding it. What is wrong with these people not to realize that this is way across the line?

The only relevant line for them is when they are "lining" their pockets.

GOES does, although certainly not the same level of detail. I don't see anyone saying Landsat does censorship, but I haven't tried looking at spicy locations myself
