Some ads (e.g. I know YT ads used to be this way, haven't looked recently) can't be blocked at the network level because they are served from the same domain/servers as the content…

While the EU and its member countries can't (or at least morally shouldn't) force people to make the product, if it was a priority they could incentivise it with funding, tax break…

Yes actually, I know someone who did business with them many years ago (before the advent of LLMs), although for a smaller sum than the advertised top payouts (the vulnerability th…

The difference comes from the fact distro maintainers choose the software they package, while language maintainers largely don't. For example, how do you prevent somebody from phis…

I think you also misunderstood, they are suggesting OP redirect to a telegram domain that isn't on the .me TLD, as the other .me is potentially at risk of also being taken down.

You continue to dance around this question on this post - did you or did you not follow Google's open source approval process[1]? Did you have an approved Ariane/Launcher2 entry? 1…

I don't have the time to audit all the code in a JavaScript runtime myself, so I am forced to make assumptions about the quality of the code based on my trust of the authors. Addit…

The problem is Google appears to label this as a security feature. I'm fine with the feature existing, but it should say something like "require Chrome" or "block Firefox" not "req…

The website labels it as a prompt, so probably a prompt

But you are Russian, right? I obviously have no idea to the extent GregKH has verified this, but a trivial scan of your online presence revealed to me you at minimum speak Russian …

It actually astounds me this is getting any number of upvotes on HN at all - it's so obviously LLM written (or at minimum heavily edited) that it's written in markdown on a platfor…

Correct. Example snippet from the nytimes.com robots.txt: User-agent: archive.org_bot Disallow: /

> Linux adopted Win32 because it actually worked. Completely untrue - Linux "adopted" Win32 because the majority of video games are written for Windows (and thus Win32). They could…

So if social media removed personalization from their algorithms and only applied them broadly across large demographic groups you'd be fine with them? (Genuine question I'm curiou…

Is this a troll comment? How could the dialogue in the OP possibly be unclear under any context?

KYC is generally a force for good because it prevents fraud. While it is not reasonable for Discord to collect your identity that is a fair requirement for a bank account because m…

What you're describing is called a "worker cooperative" and they are somewhat rare but do exist already in real life.

An LLM can neither understand things nor value (or not value) human life. *It's a piece of software that predicts the most likely token, it is not and can never be conscious.* Beli…

What? No. An LLM cannot reason, at least not what we think of when we say a human can reason. (There are models called "reasoning" models as a marketing gimmick.) TFA describes a p…

While the operator did write a post, they did not come forward - they have intentionally stayed anonymous (there is some amateur journalism that may have unmasked the owner I won't…

We cannot know for sure but I think it's reasonably likely (say 50/50). Regurgitating an LLM for 90% of your comment does not inspire trust.

It's not a peer review it's just AI slop. I do agree they don't seem to be intentionally posing as an MS employee.

While the product sounds mildly interesting, I see it as a major red flag you think it's ok for either a submitter or reviewer to not even read the code they are working with and s…

Financing a phone is dumb for most people imo, but at least it has an explicit end where you own the phone outright. This phone requires a subscription in perpetuity, on top of the…
