Near flawless is an unreasonable expectation. SpaceX had the advantage of running years of cargo missions. The error was simply not using the same successful model with any new veh…

I struggle with this question. The editor plays a valuable role and it's not hard to swallow the argument that editors make science better, they're the front line filter. Employing…

I'd guess the more mundane, someone probably had a spreadsheet of a few thousand updates or improvements, checked a reasonable sample of them, then accepted the lot of then. I bet …

I suspect someone was tasked with using the latest tools to improve a bunch of listings. 50 years ago they were given a typewriter for the same task, today they were given an LLM. …

That way of looking at it feels like it focuses on the one error while ignoring that, in all likelihood, the same action that caused the error, probably improved 1000 other listing…

This feels like something of a non story to me. Using AI for product descriptions seems like an obvious and reasonable use case; and data entry errors are not uncommon nor terribly…

I think this is a fair point. I see other comments pointing out the value in this as exploratory research. There's some middle ground here though. I think studies like would serve …

I'm excited to see a goodnewsnetwork.org article make it to the top of hacker news. This site has become a favorite of mine.

This study is getting a fair bit of media attention and I'm curious what others think of it. The study is large and appears to follow sound methods. My concern about it is their fo…

I haven't been running windows for a year or two now, so this was a while back, but I think I was on Windows 10, possibly it was 8 back then, no tweaks. But I was quite successful …

On Windows I could consistently open a 32GB matrix in Matlab with 16GB of RAM on my laptop and perform operations on the matrix. The disk would spin, and it would take 20 minutes t…

In Windows on a 16GB RAM laptop, I've often fired up Matlab, opened a 32GB matrix, and performed a few simple operations on it. In Windows Matlab dutifully chugs away on the proble…

I reported 4 fake reviews to Amazon on a product I purchased before. The product page had changed from the old one I originally purchased on to a new one with 4 obviously fake 5-st…

I'm quite doubtful this suit will succeed. To succeed the SEC would need to prove intent to disrupt the market. You can certainly show that he had a reason to attack short sellers,…

Does this have anything to do with Google removing their "Don't be evil" trademark? Maybe huh?

Tommy Caldwell is the most qualified person in the world to write this story. A famous name in climbing himself, having written many of the books, and having climbed and prepared w…

FLAVOR: Ubuntu Desktop HEADLINE: Make network-manager robust DESCRIPTION: I've got a shortcut to: `sudo service network-manager restart` I'm looking for a reason to delete this sho…
