I think this has to do with the fact that the public has caught on to greenwashing. One example that sticks out in my head is the "save a tree use a plastic bag" thing. I think the…

Some commenters here talking about anxiety, but I think the bigger cause, which many people don't know, is that THC significantly increases your heart rate despite it's usual chara…

The Les Girls sign has stood at the same place basically unchanged until a few months ago, iconic. I remember when I first came across these videos I was living in an area of the c…

Throughout this diatribe I think you had multiple opportunities to see the value of human life. That you didn't, makes me think you actually don't value your own life and while tha…

This idea of LLMs a vehicle of midlife crisis is fascinating. I'm not sure if it's just about "throwing the fastball" though. Most of the usual midlife crisis things are a rejectio…

This identity politics/virtue signaling seems off topic. > I havent used Loops I think the worst repercussion of consuming short form content is that it gives the _consumer_ a fals…

Wow you're so right, you did such a good job asking computer mommy to confirm your priors! But actually, that's not the goal here. AI, at least the kind of products that need dedic…

"before it was cool" people have been talking about this since at least 1848. But for the average American the fear of the C word seems to outweigh any sense of self preservation.

I'm not trying to _convince_ a stranger on the internet whether to use AI for their vibe shelf hobby project; I'm engaging with a project being presented by it's creator. Interesti…

Can't you just work around all of this by proxying to the third party site(s) with a subdomain?

This sounds like an intellectual debate but there's nothing of substance being said here lol. casey2 thinks British people today are wrongly (naively) complaining about the rich/po…

I saw that one in the comments section, and I pretty much only agree with the last sentence. We should probably make more human-friendly architecture. However, the rest of the arti…

My devil's advocate take on this article is that they're using Rust as scapegoat to their scaling (team not performance) problems. I use Go at $DAYJOB and we're having similar prob…
