The number is wrong / the citation is misleading. It’s closer to 20-30% according to that study, the 79% is referring specifically to cases involving social media, of which Meta pl…

1. Parental control features on phones and computers 2. Grassroots marketing about potential risks of social media 3. Maybe better parental consent via existing regulations like CO…

It’s just an incredibly different statement. It’s like saying 79% of Americans voted for Trump vs 79% of registered Republicans voted for Trump, they lead to very different conclus…

I’m not saying it’s easy for teens to stop using social media, I’m just saying it doesn’t seem like it should require intervention by the US government to do so. There are many oth…

Yeah that’s a good counterpoint. I guess it hinges on whether you can define a clear boundary around what is harmful or unharmful social media. Like to me “online shopping addictio…

I should say market share of social media* updated lol

Not trying to defend Meta at all here, but this report is also lying. For example, it says "79% of all child sex trafficking in 2020 occurred on Meta’s platforms." But the source i…

> Facebook causes harm, disproportionately so for younger people I think I disagree with this step. Facebook causes a kind of indirect harm here, and is used willingly by teens and…

Curious, let me know if you find anything about it! That does sort of explain why the brain areas would be locally flipped, but maybe doesn’t explain the global flip (right body ->…

Fair enough - so in reality they _are_ being pressured directly to remove the content and it has nothing to do with selling the products. A slippery slope indeed!

Maybe a silly idea, but here’s a solution to prevent financial censorship: make the game free. Or monetize via another way—ads, subscriptions, credits. There’s actually a lot of op…

Had the same initial reaction - have we come full circle to Bootstrap 20 years later? But after playing around with their theme builder[1], I think there's real value here - you ca…

Nice work! I really like how simple it was to get started. I know this would make it a bit harder to signup, but I think you should consider creating a Chrome Extension that allows…

Quality has improved so much too, I tried it a few months ago at Demo Day and I’m blown away by how good it is now.

Seems to work fine on iOS Safari and Chrome

Honestly, I think Apple played their cards perfectly. They didn’t try to be first to market with R&D, but they’ve launched just enough features to excite customers about new phones…

Hah I’ve been having the same issue as the author with those scammy “package delay” texts getting summarized in my notifications. Didn’t realize how widespread that type of spam wa…

There’s nothing grammatically offensive about this. It’s like saying, “Cars come in all colors. Mine is red.”

I’d be surprised if they’re not using AI or some sort of rule-based generator at this point.

Well one key difference is that Google and Amazon are cloud operators, they will still benefit from selling the compute that open source models run on.

Oh great to hear, thanks for the kind words :)

I think the implication of the top comment is that cloud providers are buying revenue. When we say that cloud provider revenue is "up due to AI", a large part of that growth may be…

So cool! I was just wondering the other day if it would be possible to build this! For front facing mode, I wonder if you could add a brief “calibration” step to help it learn the …

Just bought two. Nice work!

… It somehow just dawned on me that firm is between “hard” and “soft”
