    might turn out that the next company they apply to is run by street urchins who don't take too kindly to the stereotype? or possibly humorless scolds who don't want their employees…

    I think the reason people get angry about it is that it feels like an asymmetric ask. It feels a bit like saying "everyone needs to come I to the office because I like there to be …

    I think you may have switched the "of" and "on" when you read the original post. They're saying that the human body can negatively affect radio waves, not that radio waves have a n…

    Was it anthropomorphizing computers when they named "memory"? Seems to me like it's more analogizing for the sake of easy understanding. Sure, it's not literally the same exact mec…

    They used that argument for years to avoid doing WoW Classic, and then it was wildly successful when they finally did. Seems to me like the inability to consider how they could wor…

    It took me 5 rereads before I properly read "should" instead of "would", which totally flips the implication!

    Amusing to see how attitudes toward AI change over time. On page 6, part of the original text has a footnote apologizing to readers far in the future for outdated speculations, the…

    But unfortunately gambling ads are also to the US what pharmaceutical ads are to the US.

    I don't want to sound like a jerk, but have you considered that you might need to improve your putting/unplugging habits? I used to have connectors and cords break after around tha…

    There have been several projects lately attempting to create running context/memory, and Claude Code also has some concept of continuous conversational memory, but all if these are…

    Again, what law was broken here? By anyone in the car? I'm struggling to understand how this wasn't outright execution.

    I'm a little nervous about this affecting it negatively. Back when Buffy and Firefly were on the air, they felt so unique due to the dialogue style. But now that'll just seem like …

    I never got the impression there was much momentum for any more sequels anyway, Serenity felt like the bone they were willing to throw. This was a time before show revivals (rather…
