Wait a sec. Something which provides such an unambiguous quality of life upgrade by addressing one of the biggest health problems in the country, is only now available because of r…

That assumes perfect accuracy. If a command is misheard then you probably need to correct whatever is now in the wrong state, and then definitely reissue the original command. If i…

Asking why a tech company whose only product of note is slowly dying, why they are spending money on unrelated advocacy, is entirely reasonable though? All you have done is convict…

Thats all well and good, but you said nothing of substance about the link. The fact you dislike his political stances tells us nothing.

Its strange to see so much moralizing in this thread about a device which only receives signals and can't harm another being unless maybe thrown hard enough. Most speed limits are …

Those privileged actions are mostly irrelevant when discussing mass surveillance. Doubly so since they can just buy or acquire the data from corps.

For one, not throwing out their only differentiated advantage versus Chrome. For two, not taking the option that removes user control and customization whenever there is an option …

Moving ssh off of port 22 makes it a pain in the ass to work with. Ports are standardized for a reason. Authentication attempts are a useful security signal; I don't want to filter…

That is not the correct label for this argument. The argument is that there are a limited amount of hours in the day and that there are different amounts of risk. The optimal amoun…

There is a very good argument to be made that training AI is fair use, as it is both transformative and does not compete with the original work. This has yet to be tested in court.…

The extraordinary nature of a claim or its proof is by nature a subjective one.

Are there such a thing as UI experts anymore? It seems like we only have designers left, and I am none too thrilled about their influence.

There is always a other criteria for concern. Basically nobody understands their own desire to police the behavior of other people as merely doing something that they don't like.

Trying to get people fired crosses a line into harassment, as far as I'm concerned. But if we are talking about mere words on the screen, nothing else, then you do have the ability…

The problem there is that by default a virtual environment version of Python is just a symbolic link to the actual binaries installed elsewhere on the machine. If you do an OS upgr…

It literally does. Whether someone has a stake in an argument does not affect whether it is true or false.

Zero offense taken, and I agree completely, it's just that most tasks a person would want to do with Python are probably simple enough to where usage of a language model will save …

I grow skeptical of these angry anti-AI posts when they lack such easily-provided evidence. There is a share button on every chat on ChatGPT. You could just share the conversation …

Because of their ability to send a push message to their users, urging them to express disapproval of some bill that threatens their existence?

As someone with ALS, This drug was prescribed for me by my doctor as equivalent to other ALS medications, namely that they barely slow the progression of the disease. We are talkin…

Is there any actual, concrete data about the supposed harm Tiktok poses to health or security? The first one seems like out-of-touch geriatric politicians having a go at a wedge is…

That's appropriately cynical for HN, but this Gilens & Page study is a classic case of lying with statistics, at least when it comes to the conclusion. And like most statistics, th…

First off, thank you for the information. Second, this comment would have been better without the final three paragraphs, which amounted to flame bait.

How does that not demonstrate the ineffectiveness of the regulations? Plain old consumer device safety stuff would apply here.

Halt with an error message explaining the ambiguity and the proper switch to use. Same principle as rm requiring --no-preserve-root if you actually want to nuke / - right now it's …
