My parents had the Desiderata 'poem' on the back of the toilet door when I was growing up, so I read it a thousand times. Being older and reading it again, it's a beautiful sentiment and something that, I think, seeped into m

My laymans understanding is that poorly written scripts get executed and then owner comes back occasionally to check that there is 'content' in their database. They're not sitting there troubleshooting their thing beyond &#x2

My understanding would be that, if an API is available, then bots are essentially welcome. If no API is available and the website has to be 'visited' then it seems that it's intended for human consumption 'the old fashio

The attitude you're describing seems startlingly common, as if it's not the actual site owner that has made the active choice to block something that's causing them trouble. They all sound as if they've been logic-twiste

It was a pretty shithouse experience as a non-logged-in user before Musk, but it's a worse experience now. Timelines were all over the place before Musk got his hands on it. And if timelines are all over the place, what's the poin

I'm making this about me, so feel free to skip past this. I've been married for 26 years, which means I'd only have 10 more years with my wife, which would take us almost into retirement. That's not near enough. We'

So we can expect Battlefield: Iran sometime soon? Starting the propaganda for a ground invasion. I wonder if this one one of the crowd-sourced ideas submitted to the DoD?

Yeah, fair point, it's pretty well outside normal for me (there's a world outside of my lived experience? Nah!)

Go short soon before the next US election maybe? But you're right in terms of, if they don't get bailed out it could bring pain to certain demographics that any side of politics doesn't want to get blamed for. It's hard

Say what?! It sounds extremely obvious and infinitely practical. How often are you (or your parents) legitimately asked for money via email / internet? I mean, my answer is: never. My parents' answer is: never. My parents-in-law a

It is interesting looking at a long term chart how obvious that it was due for correction. Having said that, it's easy to say that after the correction because 'the top' is impossible to predict. But if investors hadn't

Feels like the future that Accelerando (predicted / foretold?) describes is in its infancy, whereby automation/AI has the capability (and therefore uses it) to evolve at a rate beyond the ability for humans to, not just keep up wi

I watched it maybe 12 months ago and had a similar 'parallel to AI' realisation. A singular voice for all of humanity. Gives me the creepy-shivers.
