    I'm a bit confused by the title. It seems to suggest that ripping a DVD in 2026 is no longer a federal crime, which I'm pretty sure it is. And that ripping a DVD in 1999 didn't req…

    Im definitely in this camp. It seems like the biggest frustration from the teachers’ part with modern schooling is lack of engagement from the students. This is clearly telling us …

    Even though on closer inspection the site is about more than just image generation, at first glance, it seems like its just an AI image generator. That's not a novel idea these day…

    I imagine they just help with triaging the customers query so it ends up with the right department/team. Also probably some tech support first in case it can solve the issue first.…

    I think the thing that gets me is that, whether or not this was entirely autonomous, this situation is entirely plausible. Therefore its very possible that it will happen at some p…

    Everything being done “quietly” is another one that now grates on me.

    I think the bit you quoted is a tie in with an earlier bit: “ I can be the architect without the wearing act of laying every single brick and spreading the mortar. I can design the…

    Its a neat and rational way of looking at things but does it always make sense to give your time a monetary value?

    I think if you explore the “classical” genre of music you’ll quickly find many works of merit by composers which date back over 100 years

    I think every job I've ever applied to has asked for both a resume/CV and a cover letter. A recruiter may glance at first but if they like what they see or they can only put throug…

    I think the sentiment is that it feels like theres a lot of unkindness in the world and that makes it a worse place and you can either be part of that or you can make the world a b…

    I'm guessing from your reply that you don't think its important to emphasise kindness as part of supporting your childrens' growth. If that is the case, what do you emphasise if an…

    I'd be pretty surprised if this was a popular point of view. But it is your point of view and I respect that.
