The binary would not be nearly as useful as the source code. And even if the AI read the binary and copied it, the story is still it reverse engineered and re-wrote a c compiler al…

I was ok with it opening a new story at the end of season 2 because it’s a fascinating dilemma and I’m happy they wanted to explore a deeper question about the morality of having t…

Ignoring what I think of the case itself, I hate how many headlines now are just the talking points for one side or the other in a dispute. At least try to pretend you’re being a n…

Another pro tip is to not pay at restaurants. If you can leave the restaurant fast enough before they give you the bill, they must have forgotten to charge you and sucks for them! …

Ok so walk me through how _only_ focusing on the browser core will make them money other than continuing to be dependent on Google. How can they diversify their revenue streams? I …

Just to be clear, they are NOT deactivating IntelliSense which suggests classes and functions. This is an AI inline code suggestion tool using local LLMs. Not great but may or may …

Network level is more effective in blocking porn, but Kids often join unfiltered WiFi networks. Also I think network management is a bit more complicated for the average person tha…

You need both in the world. Blockers are almost useless for adults with an addiction who can easily just buy a new device or figure out a way around. Kids can’t really join addicti…

*This does not seem like a censorship measure.* It seems like it requires OSs to give parents an easy way to filter porn. I struggle with porn addiction. When I really fall back in…

Swapping my phone number every year in the US would be an annoying as hell. Tons of services use phone number as 2FA or a backup recovery. (Including a lot of banks) I use SMS with…

Wow that is a clean and responsive interface! It feels great on mobile.

Why do people in SF just put up with this? If it were anywhere else in the country I’d think mayor would be ousted by someone who’d clean up the city. And I’m not talking about hom…
