"and nine sixty dollars is gone" This isn't even well done. I also opened it in a private browsing window, and the ad I was served was the most obviously AI-generated slop hawking …

> anti-environmental sentiment I feel like self-driving cars are, pretty objectively, the single least environmentally friendly mass transit solution (more cars being made and usin…

I'd say yes. The goal of a self-driving car is to emulate humans. If the car is panicking and reverting to "extreme safety mode" in situations where a normal human is going to be f…

> IBM shouldn't be thought of as a singular company. It is a conglomerate that does widely distinct things. This. Employees in the various sub-companies and divisions usually don't…

I don't think that would have gotten them much of anywhere. They already spent a decade trying to find markets for Watson to fit and generally failing at it. The problem with Watso…

The lights are too bright and poorly aligned. I walk regularly, and its more than just the tesla's and mini's at fault (Teslas are definitely some of the worst in my experience tho…

Thanks to automatic high beams, its a problem in residential urban areas too. My neighborhood does not have much in the way of streetlights, and automatic high beams operate by det…

Good headlights are. The modern levels of brightness do not qualify as good headlights. Modern headlights become unsafe as soon as any other person is on the business end of them, …

Think about it from the perspective of a possible benefactor. If they're being lured in with these images at all, there's clearly an emotional element to it. If they start realizin…

As of just a couple years ago, I was able to run the latest Pop on even a late 2011 MBP. It's the only distribution I found that cleanly handled the wifi stack, display, and power …

I also fear that the centralization of the web to a handful of websites has made a revival impossible. If 80% of your stumbles are just reddit posts or imgur links, whats the point…

"How do you expect the gangsters to protect your business if you don't pay them?" In many, if not most cases, the producers of this information never asked for LLMs to ingest it.

I miss the naive days of the million dollar homepage

> This isn't a real issue You've just tried to sweep away a massive concern without justifying it

If that's the plan, then you should attach an expiration date to it. Tell the consumers how long you plan to keep things running, and commit to it. Don't just shrug and go "I dunno…

> It needs to also day 1 launch with a self-hostable standalone server distro instead of the crappy spaghetti mess you live coded on an EC2 machine? If you can't meet these very ac…

The entire justification that has always been given for CEOs deserving astronomical salaries is "because they take responsibility when things go wrong", hence the term "golden para…

>3. No likes. No scores of any kind. If you show people a number, they will try to make it go up. No one tracks a score with their friends. I agree with most of these, but I'm iffy…

I always thought the idea there was that a website needed to grow organically before google would rank it highly, which makes sense to me. Prove yourself first by building a networ…

So a "Git Bop It"?

They hadn't published the latest paper, but the many papers leading up to this were published, and so its able to work off of those. I'm not an expert in this field, but in this ca…

The point isn't that it's bad, the point is that the AI did not discover the solution to the problem independently, as news headlines had implied.

That rule does have a lot of potential for abuse if not used right. A common way is "the decision is that we need to have another meeting about this later".

> Trump makes a comment and the media (and HN) assume he's breaking law before he's even done anything. Because he keeps breaking the law. Repeatedly. The better part of term in of…

He's doing it in a way that feels suspiciously like a breakdown to me. The latest "we're restricting our contributions to 45 hours a week to match WPEngine" is the the reaction of …
