This is a really neat idea to explore any relational DB. Some of the clever ways these LLMs are being used as a chat interface to information systems are really cool!

Just so I understand here; he's still on the hook for taking the bribe and running the license plate, he's just been cleared of unauthorized access because he was granted access to the system. Right? Seems to me the prosecutor mes

I frequently read research I do not have institutional access to. I'm in this situation fairly frequently, tbh.

Seems 5% attrition is a very small price to pay to weed out the bad apples. Looking at this through another prism, fully 95% of the company decided that being apolitical at work is reasonable. What happened to the rule against politics and

I think a lot of this is due to people in the neighborhoods not wanting the neighborhoods to change. It's this way in the USA precisely because of citizen control. Single family home neighborhoods are some of the nicest places to live

The NYT is a business supported by employing authors to write articles and sell advertisements to people who want to read those articles. To claim that NYT as a business has nothing at all to do with it's product, that it payed to crea

I will never purchase another game from Activision or Blizzard unless they recant this backwards position. American art and media should not be subject to Chinese influence. I've been a loyal customer over the years, but I have a long

While I cant do anything about the money I've already spent, I've just uninstalled all Blizzard games from my PC. Blizzard: As a result of this action, you have lost my business. I've been a loyal customer, but this behavior

This! ^^^ The author paints an overbroad cartoon picture of a complex philosophy in order to fabricate a tale of 'toxic masculinity'. Self control is not the act of not displaying or feeling one's emotions or drives. Rather i

Sure that's you. One anecdotal example. As a data driven counter example, take the number of card on the road in Los Angeles at a given time. I live in LA, and there is a zero percent chance I expose my child to typhus on the train. Yo

It's not a right to live in the most desirable area of the country. If you can't afford to live somewhere you desire, your options are: A: Suck it up. B: Increase the amount of money you take in in order to afford the luxury you d

This article is bullshit, written and funded by real estate developers who want to build high density housing without concerning themselves with where the people who live in that housing are going to park the cars they own. This appears to

irrespective of any of that. Respect to the guy for standing on principle and removing himself from a technology project he found ethically inexcusable. I'm also a bit surprised more Googlers haven't followed suit.

Your beautiful remembrance of your cherished love is both touching and poignant. Thank you for sharing this life lesson. I hope the act of writing down and expressing your feelings can bring you some comfort.

I love signal, and it's heartening to me that the userbase is increasing.

So, basically, your argument is that 'People can not be trusted with information that may be nuanced, so instead news outlets should limit themselves to headlines that minimize risk.' Comparing the use of an app to a lifesaving m

- No stealth either; the user does get alerted IF the user opts in, they have the option of being notified. Most users do not know this option exists or care to enable it, so I'm not sure the above is strictly true.

I stand by my assertion that the vulnerability exists exactly as described. You have said nothing that disputes that. If I understand you correctly, you take issue specifically with the characterization of the vulnerability as a 'backd

It's not a fake story. Every piece of information they presented is accurate. The Guardian did speak to experts in the field. I won't bore you with my credentials, but I agree with their assessment as well. Taking issue with the a

So, we agree that calling this a 'fake' article is itself misleading. We also agree that Signal is a more secure alternative. Your position is essentially 'people cant be trusted with accurate information, you have to dumb it

I'll point out none of the security researchers in the article dispute the vulnerability is as described. They simply took issue with the appeal to leave WhatsApp as a result of the presence of the vuln. They essentially said, Yes, it&

The vulnerability in WhatsApp was correctly described by the Guardian. Signal is more secure and does not have this vulnerability. How, exactly is suggesting users migrate to a more secure messaging platform misleading in any way?

I for one support Y Combinator's commitment to tolerance. Tolerance is sadly lacking in today's political discourse. Like many, I find Donald Trump distasteful, but to call for the removal of an investor for supporting a candidate

Without espousing an opinion one way or the other, I think the point that is most striking to me is the relatively civilized manner we're all discussing a contentious topic. Hat's off to hackernews readers for navigating tough iss
