Pre-Musk twitter isn't the comparison point here. Anthropic/Google are.

There's no sourcing for that South of Midnight number. You should treat it as fictional.

Sure, and if depressed people weren't sad, they'd be happier. 'Just don't get frustrated' isn't actionable advice.

The one that doesn't have a monopoly on the market.

Slippery slope is famously a fallacious argument. My first exposure to it was people insisting that legalizing gay marriage would end up legalizing marriage to animals.

Because he has power. Putting aside all the people who admire him who he could direct to boycott or harass some company, he can also direct increased scrutiny to companies that don…

Sure, you could go to an educational institution for 2-4 years and hope that your new job doesn't get automated away before you graduate.

The thing about building fulling automated kill bots is then you've built fully automated kill bots.

Seems like it's only when adding 1 + 4, 6, or 8 in a place value or where one of them is 0. It doesn't seem like it'd ever hold across a carry, but I could be missing something. Ed…

Alternatively, hand someone $20 and your phone and have them do the verification for you.

This article is like 300 words. Would it have killed them to not generate it using AI?

It seems like this post got killed as well, but it's the first I'm hearing of the functionality. I wouldn't say I'm a frequent user of the site, but I think I would have noticed if…

People on Hacker News with a high enough score get a "super downvote" that can downrank a story, with enough removing it off the page entirely (flagged). It's why you won't see sto…

Valve's 30% cut would lower it substantially. Taxes might put it beneath 50%.

What's wrong with having a hyphen in your name?

15 years ago this exact comment would have been written swapping out millennials for gen x and gen z for millennials.

Yeah, I saw some posts on there the other day that felt a bit suspect, went to look at their profile, and nothing. I'd already become an infrequent user of reddit since some earlie…

It's still going on now - they just use a third party to help them collude.

But suddenly adding cameras that resulted in catching more people fixed the issue? Surely if the catch and release was the issue, that wouldn't make a difference.

There's a lawsuit ongoing about Valve threatening developers with delisting if they sell non-Steam copies of games (that's NOT Steam keys, but, say, a version on the Epic store) on…

Do you really think many people are being charged and found guilty of felony assault for throwing a sandwich at a random person? He was only charged because the guy was part of a c…

This is similar to how I'd describe it for me. I can mold the apple into what I want it to be, adding a sheen or showing the bottom or the top, but any "visualization" that I do di…

One of the "slogans" was a reference to the game Helldivers 2. They were memes.
