Says how originally people played arcade games and didn't own them at all, since you were constantly putting in quarters to play more of the game. It's an interesting point, though not 100% accurate due to how there were early vid

I'd say celebrities and creatives in general are often big offenders here too. Lots of actors/athletes/musicians acting like being good at what they do means they're also qualified to talk about science and engineering.

RationalWiki calls the third one 'Ultracrepidarianism', and says it's rather common with engineers in general: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ultracrepidarianism (the Wikipedia article has that as a subhe

Honestly, my experience is that it's less age specific and more like 80-90% of the general public. A lot of people just can't recognise the difference between a credible source and a dubious/fake one, and will just share any

So, how many countries will be left to participate in these competitions if FIFA doesn't change course? What about if even more national associations from non-European countries get involved? Because in the 2026 world cup, every single

So, practically every single post on LinkedIn? And for that matter, about the same percentage of articles and job listings? Honestly, LinkedIn is 99.99% noise, regardless of whether the posts are written by AI or not.

They definitely want to. Old Reddit is simple, efficient, and mostly free of the obnoxious limitations and extra 'features' found on the new design. It's the exact opposite to what a company pushing a mobile app wants to see.

Personally, I've found that understanding what the AI generates well enough to make substantial changes to it hasn't been too difficult, though it'll obviously depend on how complex the project you're working on is. Effe

Yeah, even if the website itself gets less traffic than the places you syndicate the content to, it's at least a stable home base that's there if those platforms fall apart. Are you posting something that corporations or celebriti

Seems they forgot to noindex the /share directory or path. That said, someone has to have shared these links publicly at some point, since there's nothing on the Claude.ai site linking to all these shared chats. If you shared the

Oh, this is quite a common sight on Twitter/X now. I think I recall the Super Mario Galaxy Movie was leaked on the site before this, and that Avatar the Last Airbender movie ended up there too. It's because for the most part, ther

Twitter limits for video lengths are insane, at least for paid accounts. Apparently you can just casually upload a 4 hour video now, which is how so many films have been leaked here.

Eh not really. I don't tend to use AI for writing in general. I've used it for code on occasion, but the actual text has always been human written, and I've always made sure I could understand everything the LLM provided code

Looks pretty neat. Definitely brings me back to the olden days of Windows 98, that's for sure. However, is there any JavaScript functionality implemented here? I tried clicking on the tabs in the tab component, and nothing happened. Th

It's also not trivial to tell if an open source project has had malicious code added. It might be a bit easier than to tell if there's malicious code than if the weights in a model were poisoned, but for 99% of users, you're

This reminds me of how a lot of older TV shows and movies had an 'enhance' button that could somehow magically take a tiny, blurred image and blow it up to a level of detail where even the most minor things could be seen again. Li

Eh, I feel the productivity argument kinda depends what sort of project you're using it for. If it's a local tool that only needs to solve a very specific problem you personally have, or you're treading well trodden ground re

This feels like a move that might backfire, especially for the journalists at said publications. It's already harder to research niche topics than it used to be, given how much info is stuck in login only walled gardens like Discord (o

Hmm, did anyone else have issues loading the screenshots here? I had to open most of them in a new tab to see them. Regardless, that's a pretty sneaky scam, and definitely something that caught out a ton of would be candidates in the p

Same reason people watch any streamers; they either enjoy the streamer's personality, the games they play, or both. For a lot of people, it's basically like watching one of your friends play a game you enjoy, and a way to become p

Hmm, I don't think the art/media examples really work as well here compared to the scientific discovery ones. Whether a piece of art or fiction does well doesn't really correlate that heavily to any objective form of quality

Honestly, it's kinda overdue. If a normal shop or business sold as many counterfeit or illegal good as AliExpress (or Amazon), they'd be shut down and the owners/board charged. The fact these companies seem to be able to just

Honestly, the reasons could mostly be summed up as "we already used WordPress for the blog, we now need to add a shop onto the existing site, might as well extend the former rather than rebuild or maintain two systems". Alternativ

Fair enough. The way they added Gutenberg was a complete mess. Like yeah, the idea is a good one, and the editor can be pretty good if used correctly. But the way it was built was certainly not ideal, and was probably the worst of all world

Eh, I feel like the issue with this logic is that being technically savvy and having interesting things to say aren't really that heavily correlated. Plenty of people are incredibly knowledgeable about non-technical fields and have ton

People like having a WYSIWYG editor, being able to update their posts in the browser, having comments and being able to use plugins. They're also not particularly skilled with the terminal/commands, and a lot of hosts provide a on

It's just because they don't want to break anything in existing sites, sorta like how Microsoft doesn't generally want to break programs on Windows. So, changes are fairly incremental, and the quality is about what you'd

I mean, I'm not surprised. If you have an easy way to get 'information' about any topic, then you're going to be a lot more confident that you know everything you need to. I suspect just having the internet and Wikipedia

Yeah, I think the issue with Stack Overflow/Stack Exchange is one of how too much gatekeeping and elitism tends to eventually be the death knell for a community. True, you might want people who are more articulate or thoughtful than th
