I guess everything is ok these days as long as the President says "We screwed up [our most basic responsibility to customers], and we own that."

But corners do look better in video games like that.

Interesting position, and also very opinionated. For instance, personally I think having secondary masses dominate can make the structure look smaller and more intimate. Like in th…

Thanks for explaining. It's an interesting turn of phrase. I don't see how it relates to parallel construction.

Parallel construction would be if LE unlawfully intercepted transmissions using this technique and discovered a crime, then found other unrelated evidence to begin an investigation…

Indeed. Parallel construction is when law enforcement doesn't want to burn their source or their source is unlawful, so they find another way to justify a warrant or prosecution ev…

This is how markets balance. When there is under supply prices go up and incentivize production. When there is oversupply production goes down. Prices converge on a small premium t…

Seems much more likely the cost will go down 99%. With open source models and architectural innovations, something like Claude will run on a local machine for free.

I am not inclined to read this longwinded post. Anyone who writes a headline like this is not worthy of it's subject, and the popular comments would tend to agree. I'm sure the aut…

Hard to say that your work isn't derived from a GPL project if you quite openly are reimplementing a GPL project you used at the core of your own project.

Being obvious to a developer poking at a product is quite disparate from successfully bringing a lawsuit involving source discovery.

Probably just went closed source.

This is really cute, however I have a hard time seeing a route to widespread adoption as a marketplace of source. I was going to suggest adding adoption and rescues, however there …

Red light therapy is vasty undervalued among the techie longevity crowd I know when compared to supplements, perhaps because of the large initial cost and lower portability of syst…

There is a large amount of evidence for red light therapy for all parts of the body.

Why does this upset people so much? Lawyers use these AI tools regularly. I use them constantly for legal advice and double check with lawyers. They are right at least as often as …
