    Thanks for posting this. As someone who was almost religiously excited about GPT3 then progressively more annoyed that I could never get access to the point of giving up this is wo…

    Well said. Reading Banks was the first time as an adult that I had hope for the future. The resulting exhilaration literally kept me up for a couple days. Later the same year he pa…

    Dumb question: How does this differ from setting the view in the file selector to thumbnails?

    Serious question: Are you asserting that imagining women naked is wrong in the general case?

    Your argument doesn’t follow. How would being a software developer be the worst job because they “automate their own work away” when in fact they’d have a job until they automated …

    Wow Nadella just passed Ballmer as my least favorite Microsoft CEO. Who could possibly endorse this idea in good faith? It sounds like something you’d use to keep 10-13 year olds a…

    This is an excellent question that I’ve never seen addressed. Replying just to call attention to it in the hopes that someone knowledgeable HN’ers can answer. It seems like cloud w…

    Hypothetically because I’d be using it as a monitor part time and using the built in shit the other part of the time? In actuality I do as you suggest and don’t ever connect the th…

    So if I’m using a Samsung TV as a monitor and working on sensitive or classified material the damn thing is taking screenshots and uploading them? Yikes

    The management maybe. I have a hard time believing that the rank and file engineers get to call the shots on this garbage. I have no special insight into how Samsung works internal…
