"15 years ago" is funny, because Siri couldn't even do either of those functions on desktop 7 years ago [1]. It's crazy how they've managed to do nothing with a winning hand. [1] h…

> Perhaps there is more damning evidence. Do you consider the announcement from her publisher that she admitted that she plagiarized passages as a damning response or damning evide…

It's also not just her wealth but her personality. For better or for worse, someone as headstrong as her attracts a certain type of person, and the article showed that even her own…

It doesn't have to be the whole world, just their inner circle. If people are that reluctant to admit fault (50 times!), then that's a dismal statement on how often we see truth in…

Cluely should reach out to him for a sponsorship deal.

Yeah, I'm surprised someone who's been working at over 50 companies in only 3 years wasn't caught sooner. Some of the stories are wild enough that they had to have been shared with…

I've always been suspicious about how many brand-name products that I wouldn't give a second thought about in a store were marked as D or F.

10+9 He's 7.

How would you describe the local cultural opportunities in your area?

I don't want to sound like I'm victim-blaming here, but the reality is there's no free lunch. Investments are not risk-free, and, as you've discovered, there's a reason you got the…

I know someone in the Bay Area AI-adjacent community who went through that exact rapidly-escalating psychotic break in a highly visible and well-documented fashion. This started la…

The news reports are saying a lot of explosions happened at hospitals. Considering that pagers are still in common use by Western doctors, I'm wondering if they considered hospital…

While this is true, it's also funny to note that Apple was only founded in South Bay because Jobs and Wozniak wanted to be close to their families. There was already talent in the …

In a way, this might end up being a blessing in disguise. It's an emergency drill for something potentially catastrophic (e.g. massive cyberattack, solar flare), and it's a large e…

This is literally a black swan event that'll be memorialized in textbooks, and that's not even considering the actual fallout that will follow.

Whoops, I linked the wrong comment. I meant to link this one [1]. Anyway, seems like there's potentially a whole trail of compromised and fake accounts [2]. Someone in a government…

Someone named "John is good" claims they aren't a malicious actor... You're trying real hard to convince us, huh.

What type of confirmation do you want? The documents aren't going to be declassified in the next couple of decades, if ever. I've never heard anyone claim that Dual_EC_DRBG is most…

Given the details from another comment [1], it sounds like both maintainers are suspicious. Lasse's behavior has changed recently, and he's been pushing to get Jia Tan's changes in…

WSB has more actual discussion, while people mostly see /r/pics on their feed (because it's a default subreddit) or scroll through really quickly (because it's easily-consumable co…

That's a wall of text, but I think you're misreading the general context. > this is happening just as news breaks about layoffs at CloudFlare. Err, you have this backwards. The new…

True, there are some very dysfunctional cases. In general though, if a manager disagrees strongly enough, they can protect their reports. Yes, it might impact their personal career…

To continue the dubious analogy, having too many girlfriends isn't a sufficient cause by itself. There's a metric used to determine which girlfriend is dumped, and that's the real …
