If they worked to any acceptable level of efficacy then they could be tolerated. They're only tolerated by people who think they work as well as they claim to work (security theater) but anyone who knows about the performance impacts a

That's a good assumption because that's exactly one way it is done. :)

To my understanding wikis can take all their data, host it themselves, point the domain to their new hosting, and the move would be entirely invisible to end users if done properly and the quality of the hosting infrastructure wasn't c

Try editing anything on a Fandom wiki and that's where the real differences in experience comes from. Fandom makes it extremely difficult (nigh impossible) to do something as simple as access the page of an image asset.

Crazy seeing a weird gloop post in the morning on HN. Cook is very passionate about wikis - as is the rest of the team - and the RS wiki has long been regarded as one of the best gaming wikis on the internet; no contest. If you run a wiki -

My litmus test is to simply lie. It weeds out the people hating AI simply because they know or think it is AI. If you link directly to an AI site they're already going to say they hate it or that it all "looks like AI slop".

I understand the vast majority of CCTV is private-sector. That doesn't matter when it is handed over to the government with little to no push back when the government asks for the footage. When you'd only need CCTV to confirm with

Depending from how high it can reliably work from, collaborate with UK CCTV surveillance so that you can better track individuals with fewer cameras as long as you can collate them with cameras that confirm their position at various points

It was disabled yesterday due to the high traffic - but I was able to connect today and after saying hello the chat immediately kicked me off after I asked a question. So unfortunately I've not been able to test it out for more than a

Sorry for the late response - but I can't. I don't really follow content creators at a level where I can recall names or even what they are working on. If you browse AI-dominated spaces you'll eventually find people who inclu

Yes. Your type can encode what the proper format for a string should be and if a string is passed that does not meet that format it will throw an error allowing you to make any necessary adjustments to handle the new date year_quarter forma

Not only do I work less in the office - the quality of the work I produce is lower. I'm more stressed out about things that I no longer have the time for because I'm wasting time commuting to work when I could be taking care of ch

It's hard to quantify how much time learning how to search saves because the difference can range between infinite (finding the result vs not finding it at all) to basically no difference (1st result vs 2nd result). I think many people

Ever seen someone try and search something on Google and they are just AWFUL at it? They can never find what they're looking for and then you try and can pull it up in a single search? That's what it is like watching some people t

If you prefer to own media instead of streaming it, are into photography, video editing, 3D modelling, any AI-related stuff (models add up) or are a digital hoarder/archivist you blow through storage rather quickly. I'm sure there

When an AI makes a silly math mistake we say it is bad at math and laugh at how dumb it is. Some people extrapolate this to "they'll never get any better and will always be a dumb toy that gets things wrong". When I forget t

Duolingo has removed a lot of user generated content that helped people learning. I've heard from many that it is overall worse than it used to be.

This seems to be a scaling issue for all of these online language/SRS learning systems. Every single one of them scales and then starts dialing back/deleting/hiding all of the user-generated content that helped the platform g

If you try and prevent any usage of the phrase/snowclone it will only ever be an explicit reference to Trump's usage though. This is why I made the comparison to slurs against the LGBT communities earlier. If you only ever allow &

Do you know the original use of the "Don't mess with Texas" slogan? Do you think if people didn't repurpose the phrase it would have kept its original meaning? By leaving it alone you're ceding that the phrase belon

Disagreeing. It's like nobody paid any attention to the gay community in the late 90s/early 00's. Words are only given power over you when you cower from them and by doing so you help show that those words can have power over

Giving people the power to change your way of speech or way of thinking is how you let them have power and control over you. It gives them strength when they should be seen as weak. It empowers them. If you detest what a certain phrase migh

It can certainly swing both ways but I don't follow the logic that if I block ads that people follow me block ads. It varies largely from audience to audience. If my followers are mostly young, tech-savvy individuals then sure many of

I also share a video link with many, many, many more people than I ever could convince to buy a game. I might convince 2 or 3 friends to buy a game but I can incidently get 30,000 people to watch a video with a single tweet. Think of it mor
