Maybe a dumb question, but isn't the idea that the efficiency of the models will improve with time, such that you won't be burning hundreds of dollars of tokens for most queries? F…

Bandcamp rules. I do still subscribe to Apple Music for cheap streaming, but for albums I really like, I'll spend the $8 on bandcamp for the high quality album download. Better sup…

“A survey from YouGov found that Americans in the highest income category were by far the most supportive of defunding the police.” “By far” means “10% more” in the actual graph th…

You’re making a huge false equivalence. We’re talking about anthropogenic climate change specifically. Implying that it is the same as ancient weather patterns from before the Indu…

1. Replace the protesting mods with new ones who don’t care about 3rd party apps 2. Continue making Reddit more addictive and user-hostile, attracting casual browsers and alienatin…

I fell for this once when I was a newer developer. I bought a book on my Kindle about Ruby on Rails, thinking it might be more insightful or accessible than the Rails docs. But eve…

Social Security in the U.S. is typically for retired people age ~65 or older. There are other social programs for low-income people, but they are abysmally insufficient for what we…

I’m sorry that happened to you but this seems like a bit of an overreaction.

She admitted on video that she misrepresented work hours “by mistake.” That’s how they got her.

I’m usually guilty of not reading the whole article, but this time I did. She admitted on video that she misrepresented some working hours “by mistake.” That video was cited in the…
