I think it's too difficult to prove in most cases. Like if somebody is riding one on the sidewalk. I don't think GPS is exact enough to definitively say whether they were on the sidewalk on in the road 6 feet away, especially if t

When talking about the voltage of US residential service, and the devices that use it, 240 and 220, and 120 and 110 are functionally the same. The house theoretically has 240v and 120v power, but voltage may sag throughout the home's w

This doesn't sound like much of a barrier to me. If you're a human training the LiDAR system, couldn't you just consult the image or video to help label whatever the LiDAR is seeing?

I think the explanation that adheres to Occam's Razor is that he was just an awful person to work for or with, and he abused his privilege as founder. That's not a difficult thing for me to believe.

> I’m not sure how anyone here could say that James O’Keefe did anything wrong in this case, unless your political ideology overrides your rationality. There was all the other stuff about mistreating employees and misuse of company funds

But there have been cases of industries or companies pushing things that consumers aren't really interested in in any non-trivial numbers.

But would supporting a Linux client bring in more money than it costs? I remember reading claims from other software projects that Linux was an insignificant percentage of their user base but a majority of their support tickets.

I don't think LLM companies need permission to scrape Reddit. It's ironic because Reddit is basically saying "you can't profit off user content for free, that's what we're doing!"

We have a long way to go. In the US I think bikes are still primarily seen as toys for either children or upper middle class adults. Car culture is deeply ingrained here, and discouraging personal automobile use is going to be seen by a lar

Am I naive for wondering why Amazon would allow this? What's in it for them? It hurts the customer, it hurts their brand, it breaks the illusion that you own the book, it breaks trust in buying books on Kindle. If I were above the Kind

I like the attempt to scare the reader by pointing out the barcode is unencrypted and anybody with an simple scanner could get it. But if they're holding your ID I'm pretty sure they can already read all of that same info printed

I use a similar setup just for near my cat litter box. Almost totally eliminates pet smell. I have an AC Infinity fan I really like, it's very quiet on the lowest 3 of 8 speeds. The filter is just some generic brand. I never want to ow

I think demand is a big part of it. Vegetarians and vegans are willing to endure a lot of costs, financial and otherwise, to adhere to a special diet.

I have Hexlox on all the components, and both wheels will usually get a U-lock or cable securing them.

I use multiple locks when I have to leave mine outside for an extended period. Like 2 U-locks, a cable and possibly a padlock. An angle grinder will still go through all that, but I'm hoping a thief would just pick an easier target.

I don't get why they can't bake something into these grants that says if the company fails to deliver on their promises the government can claw back the money. It seems like I've read a lot of stories over the years of teleco

If you went to some public place with a fairly representative sample of the population, like a supermarket or something, and asked 100 people about that phrase, how many do you think would know provenance of it?

I think I remember reading a Reddit post once about a girl whose boyfriend would say things in real life like "can we get some f's in the chat boys". Things that were clearly very niche and would either be completely unintell

I don't even think they can do that. You still need some authority to say "possession of this NFT actually means the person owns this thing". But if you need to have a trusted authority to say that why do you need the blockch

For the majority of people on earth, it has not changed their lives in any meaningful way. Their lives may in fact be indistinguishable from an alternate reality where crypto was never invented.

Did that ever come out of the pool of money that went into minting the tether? Or was it just more consumers getting in while others got out?

Is there data on this though? I'm against the out of control car culture in the US, but cars have generally gotten safer for both drivers and bystanders, right? Yes a giant SUV is bad for pedestrians, but so was a rigid metal box like

Think of all the code that needs changed. I can wait another year or two, just as long as we actually commit and follow through.

I haven't seen a case yet where the branding is that deceptive. I would like to see it, I'm open to believing it exists. So far, in the examples I've looked at, it has been fairly clear who the players are. I liken it to seei
