How does this deal get made unless someone at HP owes some humane investor a favor?

at this point I just assume it's a given that he's tweeting misleading information. it seems like he removes all attempts removing community notes on himself as well. I just don't …

It seems like the the first response must get chosen a majority of the time just to account for friction

AI art is theft, especially when created via text prompt. Drawings needs to drawn, paintings need to be painted etc. Art via prompt is 'find and take'.

bots, perpetual scams, enshittification, walled gardens, ai slop make me think things were better back in the day objectively content wise. no doubt the speed and general base tech…

it's really not. the instant some insider starts selling the price will crash instantly dropping the price for other buyers. theres probably some momentum calculation when that hap…

webrings used to be the essence of the internet. And then somebody business minded decided why should I help ANY other website.

I'm pretty much full time on cursor from vscode. I don't trust it for big code blocks, but a control-k + reasonable command (I could have typed up myself) is saving me quite a bit …

even the old ipod ads were about how much you could enjoy music with dancing and stuff. this batch of ads are just shortcuts in life, that really, you shouldn't be making in the fi…

Everything is gambling. Kalshi, polymarket are the apps du jour. Before that robinhood and crypto. The culture is pervasive now.

It would be funny if they had a metric for how much code is completed by CTRL+V

what is considered as the golden era of web browsing? Minimal intrusiveness, but decent images/video/readability?

the nobel prize has the best branding and name brand recognition pop culture wise. I'm sure winning all these others means nearly as much to those communities.

the fields medal fills that gap
