"...freakout about the "dangers" of AI is really just a part of the ongoing freakout over losing control over information flows..." Not all of the "information flows" you mention are helpful or benevolent. Most

That site is really good. Definitely speed dial worthy - thanks for the story. About dropping the "i" - I think Intel is in need of a refresh and a new name wouldn't hurt the brand as a whole. I just hope they'd come up

Good points. These platforms, if they gain traction, get sullied quick and are anything but objective.

I was going to post this exact interview. What's crazy is that the tools to do this are now so much more powerful and far-reaching. Worth a watch.

I do really like Vivaldi on mobile - customizes perfectly for my needs. Have no reason to mistrust them regarding their proprietary chromium gui.

Yes, and most never want to acknowledge the real unintended consequences in things like this. There will just be even more oddball stuff enacted to "fix" the new problems.

Was just reading that in Seattle 1/3 go to private schools at this point and many of the parents site this kind of activity as the reason.

I wish there would be a rude awakening, but for so many they will just attribute their failings to everything but themselves and there will be many who enable them.

Amen brother. Also, windows, especially server, used to ship with everything enabled by default but MS learned it was a security nightmare. I wish a basic browser would ship with this stuff opt-in or add-in only. Keeping up with this kind o

There's nothing in that opinion piece about forcing teenagers to work. Just removing the barriers that restrict them from working if they want to.

You can see nipples plenty of other places. Some shops used to sell porn on their magazine racks, some didn't.

"I don't mind transcripts being altered if it reflects the officially endorsed position." Can't you see how this "officially endorsed position" editing would be a dangerous thing? Transcripts should be an exact

This is also what I do. 99% of the passwords in Keepass on my PC I don't need when out and about. The 10 that I do need I just keep updated in a vault on my phone. I don't like the feeling of my 'keys to everything' bein

There's plenty of sexual progression online. Imgur's decision has little to do with society as a whole. It's one company wanting to get off the porn train so they look better to potential buyers.

"It's not like there aren't better options at your disposal" For what exactly? For many, many things, windows is your ONLY option. Switching to Linux or Apple would mean kissing away so much software availability.

I have nothing smart to say about the topic, but it is awesome as always to read about these kind of efforts to crack open murky but promising concepts that are posed. Also, the writer did a great job presenting it all.

They really feel like they've reached a 'Microsoft of the late 90s' phase.

That was interesting. Thanks for the unexpected quality distraction.

The leaker's failures are obvious. The real failure by far is that access to this kind of "secret" material seems to be so easy to get.

True no doubt. They did take a lot of sharp jabs at each other in their song lyrics in the years after the split.

I am pretty damn poor but don't commit crimes. Crime happens when people decide that's the route they want to take over other routes. It's as much a cultural thing as it is an economic thing. There are wide swaths of the publ

I think so too. When asked point blank Paul said John broke up the band. The clip is on Youtube. I get it's just his word but from so many sources John was an exhausting personality to deal with in long doses. You can tell that from th

I actually replace Defender with a 3rd party choice (Eset) for this very same reason - to wrestle some control over my OS from Microsoft. I find Defender to be overbearing in so many ways.

You are apparently being too rational with this answer. You are right. You can't spend 60 billion for something that 500 people a day will use when planes already do it for less.

After 70 hours a week staring at terrible hand writing you reach a second level of consciousness. Involves drooling.

Just curious... Does Samsung, for example, get a kickback from Netflix -or whomever- when someone uses their device to order a subscription?

"Game Changers" is a terrible place to plant your fact-flag. Like all documentaries of its type, there is no balanced fact-checking, questionable "experts" basing their opinions on small inconclusive studies, etc, etc.

Your points are made from a very idealistic place, but not rooted in reality. If I steal your car and tell you that I'm just "building on your work" to better my life, are you going to feel the same?
