Also for anyone with anti-establishment or anti-Amazon opinions... Millions of feeds uploaded and analyzed by their servers, far away from all regulation. What could go wrong eh?

This. There are mannerisms, and there's outright lying. I'm sure those people know they're potentially wasting your time or even hurting you with false answers but they still go ahead. It's reasonable to drop some phrase

This is because those "environmentalist" laws weren't created to satisfying national energy demand, but only the people's desire to roleplay environment-savers and get paid for it. Similar government schemes played out i

Why don't Australians use Solar water heaters? It's the best ROI you can get from solar, Mediterranean countries and the sunny parts of China have absolutely massive capacities installed. It's direct thermal, so it's not

It's not an accident. Roaches carry diseases that infect humans. They feed on human faeces when they get access to sewage, and they often do. Shrimps are bottom feeders too, but while I'm not an expert, I believe that the great di

So Lyft doesn't even evaluate the state of the cars used in their service? How is this not their fault?

That's a great deal. And yes, most universities don't need a full-time glass-blower, if they need specialized glassware they can hire services or make orders to companies.

Right, because a small font size is the same as not being able to access the article on grounds of geoblocking...

Perhaps since there was a grand available ($10-$20/person, as the article says) the numbers were significantly skewed. At 20$/person this totals $4,000M. Although this doesn't mean sterilizations didn't happen, I'd

My civil and rational response to you would be to sterilize you, as you are clearly incapable of intelligent parenthood. People like you need to be removed from the gene pool.

As bad as smartphones might be, I hope you're not seriously trivializing actual implants by comparing them to smartphones. You can leave your smartphone at home.

A lot of comments here, but almost none of them are based on reality. Apples has ~20% of the market share, and amazon another ~10%. That leaves the entire 70% of the tablet market occupied by Android devices. I know HN has an unusual fond

Is there another use for these drones right now? Because all I've seen is pretty close to "ethnoreligious genocide". Many people straightforwardly advocate for it. Can you really pretend that you're developing "ne

That's why we need peer-review.

Eh. Reddit's userbase is increasingly younger (have you seen the home page while logged out lately?) and they can't really monetize them. Sure, they have contracts with pizza and soda companies in the US, but that's it. Recen

They're not endangered, but they will be if they keep unsustainable whaling. If they want to hunt them; good for them. But they need to set quotas, monitor the local population, train the crews to recognize different species, and enfor

There's a pretty spectacular performance boost too. Microsoft stealing my electricity and computing power to run bloatware and analytics on data they steal from me is just too much. In the past I thought the idea of "really cont

I'm pleasantly surprised this is used for good.

Yeah this is a dumb article. Number of tweets by AndrewNg? Really? All those articles denying the reality of the revolution brought by AI have an emotional basis, but I don't understand what it is. Are they feeling threatened? Or is it

Well, the whole point of diamonds is to show off wealth. Natural diamonds and their defects are more expensive and very hard to replicate crystallographically , so they're not doing anything unexpected.

This is a major problem. There's no guarantee the data is real, and most of the people who have to sell their old data clearly don't have much buying power regardless. But, imagine if they were selling a real-time feed of what the

I'm glad at least 1 more person in the thread bothered to read about this. It's completely clear that this useless product is only used to break resistance to GMOs and flood the market with hoards of potentially dangerous modified

Great. If the internet was mission one thing, that would be Google's AI moderating every single comment section on all independent websites. In Google's cyberspace, nobody can hear you scream.

Many countries in Europe also faced fascist governments, military coups and oppressive regimes in the last 50-100 years. This leads to a much better understanding on how personal information can be lethal. And it's not just some distan

Those labeling nets keeps resurfacing in the news. They're more of a hack than a proper implementation. It uses a focus-based algorithm to detect prominent features and just glues them with NLP without using any context. If it detects

Is there anyone that still believes TOR will protect him from state actors? It's nice that people still run exit nodes, but it's so expensive and dangerous that you cannot expect a satisfactory number of nodes to be run for moral

Sooner than later you will be able to spontaneously generate films from books or scripts. You will then do some high-level editing by clicking through latent spaces, and voila, you have your own Hollywood-grade film. It's gonna be weir
