Fitting that this was posted on Columbus Day.

Doesn't this give OpenAI access to your source code?

The pearl-clutching over "book banning" is ridiculous. It's parents not wanting schools exposing their children (i.e., minors) to certain materials the parents think is inappropria…

It's not just hypocrisy. Many of the HNers railing against this are actually responsible, even if just indirectly, for it. Take Chrome (including Chromium) use, for example. Chrome…

I wouldn't be surprised if the author, and a large segment of HNers agreeing with her, did a swift about-face when they realized that Tor also provides an end-run around the intern…

I wonder how many HNers angry about this are also some combination of 1) working for bigtech 2) using iOS/OSX/Android instead of Linux (yeah, I know Android is technically a Linux)…

Thankfully, the site is no longer available via clearweb, so we can just take its characterization by its harshest critics at face value, rather than having to actually read it our…

There are still almost 5k banks in the US. Unlike Zelle, if this opens to all of them, all you need is one bank.

>The reason the US government has a national debt is because that debt is owed to the Federal Reserve, which is a private bank that loans the US government money and that sets the …

It will be interesting to see how this affects "toxic," deplatformed, and to some degree debanked (at least from PayPal and CC processors) entities, like the KiwiFarms. While this …

I upvoted you, for what it's worth. People here really are relentless with the downvoting and flagging.

This (distinguishing -1 from a character value when char is unsigned) is one of the reasons character literals in C have type int instead of char (C++ changed them to char.) Note t…
