Zuck is just yet-another CEO who insists on being visible/part of the "branding" despite irrefutable evidence of brand damage and general shitshow for marketing metrics.

If you eat at a restaurant more than once, it's both customary (not "bonus points" but the norm) + a "don't spit it my food" insurance if you return. If I withhold tip I'm never co…

Don't forget toilet height. A 14" or lower can drastically reduces hemorrhoid risk. Unfortunately in US we've been pushed toward 16" and higher, leading to those absurd pooping sta…

"Won't somebody think of the poor non-AI datacenters?" ... said nobody, until now

> The details are vast and this is a massive abbreviation and some I haven't even mentioned even though they're relevant. Indeed, you left out the time cube.

> If you don't do what AIPAC says to advance their foreign policy goals, they will try their darnedest to remove you from office at the next election. FTFY. Times are changin'

What's the tell, other than it butchering the context (bad writing)? The article as a whole doesn't seem horribly LLMy. The overall topic is pretty dry, and that sentence is honkin…

But bro, X is all about freedom, protecting us from the woke tyrants who want to freeze our peaches! It seems brazen hypocrisy is now the norm for the hard right, and when you poin…

You're right that WF is attacked and operates as a public resource which makes it a target. But that means they also need to be held accountable by sympathetic forces because a for…

Workers unhappy with their treatment looking to organize makes you hate them?

Hmm someone responded to you with their demands, asking which demand you find unreasonable, no response? Does your prompt forbid actually reading responses?

> Honestly, I'm on Wikipedia's side: there should be a true secret ballot. Mission accomplished for Jimmy Wales then, "aw shucks I like unions but there's this one thing about a pr…

At this point I don't understand why to use a JVM language with anything but Java. Java is a "good enough" language now and is still the premier ecosystem driver, getting all of th…

If you're not from the US maybe not tipping is understandable. If you are from the US and you don't ever tip, you're an insufferable jerk, on the left or the right.

In a way, the AI-text-policing is a golden age. Allasudden, folks actually give a shit about style??? Before AI was there _ever_ comments on HN "bro, the semicolons ... I just can'…

Before the guaranteed wages all the apps had the tip option at checkout. When NYC enforced a liveable wage, the delivery apps raised holy hell including intrusive popups in the ads…
