    I would assume then, that someone can report it as "not slop", per their documentation: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/slopstop.html#reporting-...

    I have seen it and unfortunately, I'm a 5. I quite literally cannot picture an apple in any form. I understand what I'm supposed to be picturing but when I try there's nothing that…

    I've seen some sections discussing memory, but not necessarily internal monologue.

    https://archive.ph/iMdvd I have aphantasia and it always astounds me when I see an article like this, or hear a friend talking about it (about not having it) and realize that their…

    Yes, I definitely agree with you! I also think it's asking for trouble (between ICE, CBP and/or National Guard) especially considering how reckless these other agencies have been (…

    I know you're being sarcastic, but I believe there's a legitimate argument in demonstrating that the administration is contributing to circumstances that would lead to this exact r…

    Very interesting, really liking the swappable components in the quad. I'm a big cyclist but have been looking for something new to take around for commuting that isn't a scooter. G…

    I agree there is some implicit bias in this reporting, particularly because Nathan is colleagues (or at the very least previous colleagues) with Ian Hogarth, who is currently the c…

    Very good news, this would have raised a major red flag for me if I went to use their browser and saw any AI integrations.

    This is fascinating, they're linked to the Arbutus Foundation (founded by David Byrne) which reported almost $850k in revenue in 2023. Seems like quite a few of big donors are invo…

    IMO there's a massive difference between genuine curiosity and discussion over topics which have an outsized impact on domestic and global politics and actual polemics and 'ideolog…

    I'm convinced this is a big cause as well. Reduced visibility greatly exacerbates this (as a driver looking for visibility while in the turning lane) trying to see if walkers or ca…

    I greatly prefer Kagi https://help.kagi.com/kagi/company/ but it's very nice to see more competition in this space in general.

    Anecdotally, I'm at a larger multinational corporation and our site has been mandating a new RTO policy and have not been granting exceptions based solely on seniority. In my perso…

    Interesting that you mention it, because the NYT just released their ethicist commentary from today and the question was "how do I tell my rich friends to stop talking about fleein…

    I'm honestly surprised by this. I still use my AVP about once a week or more, it's my preferred method for watching shows, movies and YouTube. I would be interested to hear what ot…

    I use Obsidian for kanban (with urgent tasks) and for drafting longer writing, while using Remnote for tracking most other general information. Both work really well for me, for di…

    There are also quite a number of medical device and pharmaceutical companies on the east coast (based in upstate NY here), along with defense industry contractors. So, there are so…

    Yes, that's what it is, just in case NYT locks the article behind a paywall.

    I love my Vision Pro, but I do feel like it's quite heavy and delicate for every day, general use. Also, one thing that I have to keep in mind when using it is that the room needs …
