Nobody who knows what the AP is would describe them that way. It's a non-profit news wire, they write up the national/international stories so that smaller newsrooms don't have to redo this work. The person who listens to new

According to Elon Musk: "Disney (...) are the world’s biggest example of go woke, go broke" Does this mean that there is legal precedent to force him and others to buy their new movies? https://twitter.com/elonmusk

The equivalent of the library for online research IS real libraries. Your library card likely gives you access to ad free online resources, I know mine does and I've been a patron of several libraries as I've moved around.

Performance/stability on KDE used to be a lot worse IMO. Your opinion on KDE depends on when you last checked.

The article mentions off hand that these chips are banned in the US. How are the big players in AI in the US taking it? In the AI arms race it feels like a chip like this is a serious advantage.

The opposite. It's been phased out of TV, (more pauses, less scrolling text) around the same timeframe that it phased out on the web. I threw together a visual comparison: https://gifrun.azureedge.net/video/4e99ff8

For many reasons (including the ones above) it's difficult for any institution within reach of the US government to analyze how the alt-right took power but from what I can tell the US economy is in a slow burn. It's been receivin

It's really simple, moving text is hard to read. As an example, turn on the local news (bear with me, I work for a TV station). You'll notice the scrolling ticker is likely simplified to focus on one headline at a time, with more

Bandages are very common, even at hospitals. The solution isn't just to pretend nothing's wrong until the patient bleeds to death. There's other steps here too, I continue to advocate for education and culture shift. I'v

That was sort of the PR spin they put on it. If Cloudflare was drawing an ideological line in the sand, they might have discussed where that line is lest others cross it. Instead, the post talks about when they do and don't comply with
