Why would you suspect that the US pushed their hand on this? This is not out of character at all for the UK.

What a superficial and short-sighted take. > Even he, subconsciously, knows it doesn't pay off to waste cognitive energy on what a machine could do instead. > It's not laziness, but efficiency. It's only efficient in th

Love the aesthetic. I heavily prefer "warm" photos over pixel perfection. I don't need to see every last crevice and pimple on someone's face to evoke the emotion of being there. As long as they aren't too blurry, i

Your electricity bill might be greater than the value of the produced gold though.

Isn't it funny that people who constantly feel the need to tell the world how kind they are, actually aren't that kind?

I don't even use mold for production. It's for development.

> we got the timeline where the Internet turned into Addictive Pay-per-view Disney Call me a cynic, but I really think that was the inevitable outcome. It's just flawed human nature. Yes, there are outliers - good people who make an

Streaming videos, leasing cars, cloud gaming, spotify, are all great until the distributor takes it away. I prefer to own my things. The sense that something is mine increases the pleasure of using something for me. It probably stems from m

Being stuck carrying coworkers that don't perform sucks. Firing under-performers is what healthy businesses do.

It's the cult of superficial thought. Hate speech is a small price to pay for the fight against censorship. But there is a not-insignificant amount of people that look at the hate speech, think it should be censored because it's b

Another factor is why waste the effort going to get a dopamine rush by going out when you have dopamine in your pocket? We're too overstimulated and numb to bother leaving the house. Why bother playing a game when you can watch someone

They said it was a "new" search experience. They didn't say it was better.

It's great when you're the only dev on a relatively young project.

This reminds me. Back in the day, HTC made a 3D enabled phone with a 3D screen and camera. I would love to see that attempted today again with how much progress we've made in terms of screen resolution and camera quality. https:/

> And that seems valid to me: the average quality of software today seems to be worse than 10 years ago. You don't remember Windows Vista? Windows ME? I think you have that view because of survivor's bias. Only the good old sof

Comparing an LLM to an industrial textile machine is laughable, because one is consistent and reliable while the other is not.

I'm in the same boat. My phone keeps asking me if I want to update to Gemini, but I won't because Gemini just gives my typical LLM BS responses when I just want to do a basic Google search with my voice. Gemini just complicates my

It's funny that a company actually choosing to live in California now is so unusual that it sparks a headline and a front-page post.

I used to drink coffee with sugar, until I purposefully cut it out, and now I can't stand sugar in my coffee. I can't believe I used to drink those glass bottle starbucks coffee drinks at one point.

They're not saying that it's not a systemic problem, they're just saying it's not a company problem. Housing being too expensive is not a company problem for example.

What is actually of value here? There's no actual game, it's incredibly expensive to compute, the behavior is erratic.. It's cool because it's new - but that will quickly wear off, and once that's gone, what's

The funny thing is 15 years ago, programming was nearly everyone's passion for those that were in the field. There were very few "job" type programmers. Not the case today.

I have yet to be on a social media platform that isn't toxic in some form. I think it's more likely that they'll find people who agree with their biases on Bluesky, and that's the real reason they're switching.
