    You can define "ponder" in multiple ways, but really this is why thinking models exist - they turn over the prompt multiple times and iterate on responses to get to a better end re…

    It's useful to point out hypocrisy, but are you suggesting we shouldn't try to protect kids because of Jeffrey Epstein?

    * stop making new models and people keep using the existing models, not switch to a competitor still investing in new models.

    Yes, and the content itself is clearly AI generated marketing nonsense.

    Article is AI slop based on a mostly made up premise.

    I think half your examples are made up, or not Apple's fault, but it sounds like what you really want is to disable your passcode.

    > Should the general public be more diligent in checking the sender domain of the emails they read? yes

    I think the main motivator is that most people/businesses would not want their transactional emails to include political at all.

    What's the purpose of a primary election? It's to select a party's candidate for a general election. It's not very obvious that this should even be a democratic process, but if it …

    This is a bad idea. But in the same spirit, a bad but less bad idea: require the user to actively enable the deprecated feature via config or something, but have a known schedule t…

    how do de-aggregation attacks or whatever you'd call this work?

    That's not really a rip off, it caters to people who can't afford to buy in larger quantities.

    It doesn't sound like you've ever taken a standardized test, that's not how they are structured at all.

    People always say this, but are there any real examples of corporations extracting damages from EULA violations?

    I think it depends on the company. I don't know how bad of a problem it is for big businesses like Amazon. Sure there's some lost profits and a write-down with the layoff, but it's…
