I definitely struggle at playing using artistic pieces. I had one set when I was a kid: it was so much more difficult to recognize patterns with its metal pieces: sometimes I even couldn't distinguish black from white. But they were pr

Plus, this sentence in the original post I replied to really struck me as absurd: "Content-neutral time, place, and manner restrictions aren't censorship". Let's imagine a country bans the distribution of all writings by

My take is most users (who generate these posters) are not aesthetically astute and/or care enough to put in more effort.

My point is - copyright is also a "content related" reason: some site is banned because the content of the site is infringing the copyright of someone else. In the end, all censorship is content related. One could definitely argue

In China's case, it is a very well known and documented fact that heavy censorship is present. Of course if one thinks additional knowledge on that is useful enough to solicit wide user participation, that is certainly one way of think

See "Spotify lawsuit" in the wikipedia article. Also: "In January 2024, Italy's ... ordered major internet service providers (ISPs) in the country to block Anna's Archive due to a copyright complaint..." "

They do not. But it is pretty pointless I would guess: probably most of the domains this tries to visit will be blocked.

Anna's Archive is prevented by some countries from visiting because of its (presumably illegal) content. All restrictions are based on its content.

Could be just China has a much higher population density. US cities sometimes feel like "ghost towns" in China to me...

I didn't have "replace" in my mind. I 100% agree with you that AI cannot replace human educators, but I am hopeful that as a supplementary tool, AI can achieve a lot. On your point of MOOCs and YouTube lectures: I agree that

This looks really bad.

by Gathering6678 2mo ago
May I ask why? If by "not the same" you meant: AI is not at the level of a good human educator, it is a fair argument - but not many humans can afford to have a one-to-one human educator either. Perhaps I am a bit more optimistic,

I'm guessing the person you're replying to meant the incremental cost of serving African customers is low.

'Open' and 'for everyone' doesn't have to mean 'not following government's orders'. The last sentence of yours is a non sequitur. Also, in today's environment with the US using AI in active wars

There's another contest called Underhanded C that I enjoyed a lot reading, but it has been inactive for a decade at this point...

Is it? As mentioned by another comment, it's probably more divided than 'anti-AI'. Also, 'Over the past six months, there hasn’t been a single day where I’ve checked the HN Best RSS feed without seeing a post about how A

Ah yes, FSearch is what I'm using right now. Although, correct me if I'm wrong, it relied on a search database and is slower? I remember reading somewhere that Everything is so quick because of NTFS - not sure about the technical

Tax is a complex issue that differs from one jurisdiction to another, and I am in no way an expert in any of them, but I do believe most tax authorities would require fair value exchanges. Which means, "If the work is performed for $1

Everything is an absolute gem. I literally cannot survive on the work computer without it. At home on Linux, this is one of things (probably the only one even) I really missed from Windows.

The title is misleading in that it makes people think only 3% goes to Linux as a whole, while that number is about the linux kernel only. Some other comments mention blockchain: one could argue for or against endorsing blockchain technology

China is also short on supply... Capex for these are planned years ahead and just not flexible enough to deal with the supply squeeze right now.

Would satellite dishes still be allowed when push comes to shove and the Internet is completely locked down?
