    I’d note that China does not need democratic approval for any of its projects and thus is substantially more efficient.

    What’s the purpose of creating completely LLM generated blog posts? There’s not even an attempt to make it seem human. I thought the whole purpose of blogs was to share an individu…

    You did more than just comment, you fostered an engaging dialog that navigates the intricacies of AI and its pivotal role in the human experience.

    It’s a “learning management system.” It replaces a course website in most instances. It’s also used for course grades and you can submit assignments or take quizzes.

    Occam’s razor seems nice here. Higher demand for care due to rising number of legitimate diagnoses or widespread fraud?

    What was released last year was the same AirPods Max just with a USB-C port. This is a new generation.

    I was thinking the same thing, but I thought I was being too cynical given it was a post lamenting about all the cognitive abstractions we have created.

    I was thinking the same thing. My understanding has always been that stimulants flood the brain with dopamine which in turns makes difficult tasks less unpleasant.

    May I ask why you have had to put programming aside?

    No offense taken. My first point was that some of these students were legitimately diagnosed with learning disabilities long before grades, the SAT, or college admissions were even…

    I go to one of those elite universities now, and I get academic accommodations. I think some of the increase is truly from greater awareness about disabilities among teachers and p…

    Does this number include housing accommodations? They are provided through the same disability office. I have dry eye disease, and when the relative humidity was 19% in my dorm roo…

    I’ve thought about something like this, but I feel like the core part of the Zettelkasten method is the act of making connections and extracting ideas from the sources you interact…

    Sure it's harmless, but I think the app has enough suggestive content to be "explicit." There is a section where you can track your toy performance with options including ropes and…

    In all honesty, I think the front of a condom box which says "for contraception plus STI protection" is less sexually suggestive than an app that has a "Spice Library" where the us…

    Books that describe sex are somewhat age restricted. Something like Looking for Alaska is rated 16+ by Common Sense Media and not in elementary or middle school libraries.

    I think there are a good number of false positives. I asked ChatGPT something about Git commits, and it told me “I was going through a lot” and needed to get some support.
