Hiring companies certainly don’t want bots to write job applications. They are already busy weeding out the AI-written applications and bots would only accelerate their problem. Hiring companies happen to be paying customers of LinkedIn.

For some reason it serves me the page in my language, Swedish. The text is very poorly translated, to the point of being difficult to understand. There is a widget to listen to the article instead of reading it. When I press play, it says t

The iPhone SE 3 might have a poor camera, but the one on the iPhone mini 13 is excellent! My conclusion is the same as the author’s: it’s a matter of you get what you pay for. The demand here is for a small premium phone. This would come

That’s a good example of reuse, not recycling. Recycling means making new cardboard or paper out of old material.

Crucially, the thing they was recently de-funded was not mapping but the federal agency that does hydrology. Hydrology being the science of how water flows in the environment around us. For example, using GIS data combined with meteorologic

Sure, but if your car is presently driving to the supermarket, it’s a pretty safe bet that you are probably not at your house.

You say that the priorities are missing, but this article is about just that: this politician is changing the priorities. Admittedly for a rather small number of office workers, but it should be seen as a pilot project. Half the ministry st

Surely your local blujays must have heard the hawk somewhere in order to learn its call? It figures that a hawk would occasionally show up in your neighborhood. Machine identification can still need some manual confirmation, even though thi

This is kind of my point; people tend to not be silly enough to stay unemployed and starve. Instead when push comes to shove, sensible folks will adapt to the circumstances.

Here’s the deal: if you won’t write your replacement, a competitor will do it and outprice your employer. Either way you’re out of a job. May be more prudent to adapt to the new tools and master them rather than be left behind? Do you want

Ah, I see,,, Wikipedia tells us: “While a majority of adult overdoses are linked to suicide attempts, many cases are accidental, often due to the use of more than one paracetamol-containing product over an extended period.[106] […] Overdose

Super close may be an exaggeration but could certainly be voted “most likely analgesic to let you take an intentional overdose”.

That’s a lot. I keep forgetting how many idiots are in the world. Some of those are probably intentional suicide attempts. What’s the maximum number of tablets for one purchase? Sweden has it regulated down to 14, because that’s just enough

The thing is the people backing this proposed rule are not exactly marginal players in SV. You can argue that most software engineers don’t agree with it, but you have to accept that who calls the shots in a big business venture is the lead

They would be violating Swedish copyright law if they did, so they better not! Much easier to get away with such things in the US (it seems).

I think you’re right, they would need some kind of copyright exemption in order to properly preserve the games by migrating them to new media regularly. I’m not sure it’s possible to get such an exemption for a private corporation under Swe

They do state that researchers are welcome to visit and use the material. I think that makes the collection not-entirely-useless to the public. Presumably any research they enable will be published.
