Maybe your cultural frame is that mental health isn't a protected category and it's an appropriate insult. That's not what the law says in professional environments and that's not …

Presumably you do a lot of back-and-forth with AI, and as many other commenters have pointed out, this seems to have made you more credulous and less informed.

This point of view runs directly against mutually agreed upon matters of fact: https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2022/03/15/ama-scope-of-p... The US healthcare system is not a mar…

I'm rooting for you, to be clear! It sounds like your approach is more sophisticated than the average, and this is a pain point that is starting to get a lot of attention.

I can deeply, deeply relate. X and Bluesky are both going nuts with ai and ai scams, but _both_ of them banned an advertising account because we were... using a bot to automate beh…

Please, please, please actually do this yourself or read any of the top comments. You are still missing the point, which you will understand if you actually do this and then look a…

I would spend less time with theory and more time with practice to understand what people are getting at. MCP and CLI could, in theory, be the same. But in practice as it stands to…

Some roosters lay eggs. You might believe there is intrinsic sexual dimorphism among mammals and birds. You might even have overwhelming experimental and scientific evidence that p…

Sorry, I think of HN as a technical forum where people prize precision. I think that when you informally bolster lies of omission with your own imprecise language agreeing with it,…

The majority of US support for Taiwan and it's current situation is owed entirely to supporting a military junta from the mainland that massacred the local Taiwainese who objected …

I would also like to know if these are dual citizens or not. I think it would be newsworthy if hundreds of US passport holders who do not have chinese passports also were being hel…

I don't doubt you, but what if someone's else's wife felt differently. Would that counteract your wife? Or is your wife special in an objective sense and her intuitions about hypot…

What are you talking about? Why are you using imprecise language like "popped the camera open?" You've run into a site you view on chrome/firefox/safari accessing your camera witho…

You're stringing together a bunch of weasel words that are not a proof or a plausible suggestion of a proof. "Suggests is more ambiguous" and "undermines the framing" are bare asse…

Very problematic to think that something's reproductive attributes have to correspond to what gendered noun we call it by.

This is a not-unexpected result if you think of AI as what it actually is instead of what a multi-trillion dollar marketing campaign wants it to be. At heart, the corpus for this g…

No, nothing cute like that. https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/18079 The instance owner has absolute anonymity and absolute power to snoop with no access logs and no known…

This looks interesting, but if you don't have creepy and opaque admin controls and algorthimic manipulation that create a thousand little tinpot Larry Ellisons, you should highligh…
