I'm surprised this happens between workers within the same knowledge domain. If you're a software dev asking another software dev for an opinion on code, can't you just... talk sho…

Josef Prusa also commented on this last year: https://www.josefprusa.com/articles/open-hardware-in-3d-prin... The motive appears to be to get tax credits as opposed to becoming a f…

There are also DCTs which IIRC don't use a torque converter. But chances are pretty good that an automatic transmission car uses a torque converter.

As a layman, this too strikes me as the problem underlying the "confidently wrong" problem. The author proposes ways for an AI to signal when it is wrong and to learn from its mist…

I saw a post on this subject in the android subreddit back in 2019 [0] and it was clear that everyone had already accepted by then that the market was too small to sustain this. I …

I think that's the cart before the horse. People buy the big phones and so businesses cater for that.

> Congratulations: you have successfully turned your cool idea into a chore. The article gave me a vague, off-topic sense of unease but your comment crystallised the feeling for me…

I played around with the website. I will take the author's advice to not take it seriously. Many of the changes are active voice to passive voice. It might sound more polite, but i…

It's interesting, this isn't the first time Shopify's CEO Tobias has looked to videogames to find skills he wants in employees. He's a longtime Starcraft fan for example, and offer…

> Something went very wrong in negotiations here. That's all I can say. Who allowed this deal to be penned in its exact fashion? I'm not sure this is the right way to look at it. I…

IAAL but likely not in your jurisdiction, and I agree with this, because the biggest "legal" concern I would have as the linked OP is the company coming back and blaming me for som…

> I propose that the differences in opinion are likely differences in understanding the ill-defined context of the question. The whole point of the article is that *on large platfo…

I exercise to maintain healthspan and keep fit, but I am by no means "fit" by the standards of people who are fit. I've seen what strong looks like (I'm not very big, at the oly gy…

Most people I've talked to want farm animals to be treated "well", and whatever that word means in their heads, we all agree that it's some standard higher than industrial scale fa…

I didn't get that from the poster you're replying to. I agree with you that people will create because people are people and want to create. But people also have to eat, need shelt…

I was deeply sceptical of LK-99 and simply chose not to comment on it in public on the internet because: (1) confirmation or contradiction will come soon enough, and (2) being scep…

> In fact, I don't think it's reasonable that they should even have access to view what you're uploading and sharing in private meetings. There may be a setting you can set in the …

Agreed. The concepts were floating around before, but nothing presented the idea of an LLM quite as coherently and presciently like Rorschach did. (I hasten to add that this is in …

3. Drones, autonomous or not, aren't anywhere near reliable enough to do autonomous remote delivery. Final delivery is fraught with a myriad of things that can go wrong. GPS is not…

The slighted musicians, as you put it, have made plenty of experience-based comments on what the drawbacks are, and why the decision matrix is wrong. They accord with my own (admit…

I think you've got it. /r/worldnews, /r/news, /r/askreddit, /r/WTF, /r/games, /r/politics, all fairly large subs, all still up and running. Enough for that dopamine hit. Some subs …

I understand the sentiment and agree with it, but I think you have the cause backwards. It's not so much that lawyers win when people fight, the problem is lawyers. It's that peopl…

To be more specific, the Betamax case is the reason a specific person can store a copy of a TV recording that they made, for timeshifting purposes, because SCOTUS held that that pe…

This may be of interest to this crowd. Singapore has explicitly set out exceptions to copyright infringement in its new copyright act. Sections 243 and 244 of the Copyright Act 202…

I thought the list was missing Japanese phones too! I went on holiday to Japan in the early 00s, and I remember thinking how all of the phones were way ahead of their time. Phones …
