   Sources would be great, but honestly not sure I would read to much into this assessment. Idk what your background is, but if I had to guess you did research for a financial firm that sold memos or a were a consultant. Information you presen

   I asked my dentist a lot of questions and had them give me a tour of the shop. I was getting a crown and they showed me their CNC machine that took a 3D scan of the original tooth and scan of the nub after eroding it down and just perfectly

   This is kinda interesting, but calling this an attack is definitely over selling the impact.

   Yeah even if their product is "better than Co-pilot", I will never use it after this brazen publicity stunt.

   Lol this is not the same with most people. Pretty incredible if true. Timing attacks are pretty powerful though. Only one person has likely been to all the same places at you at the same time over the past week.

   Fun game! Wish the UI would stay static when going between rounds. The scroll down was jarring.

    I personally feel so validated after reading this post. The past 3 weeks have been me personally, painfully re-deriving this information independently. JS FE culture is so fucking obsessed with “modern” instead of what works best. I am usin

    This is a great article. Usually authors have snark and no substance but this author was able to back up his takes with excellent notes.

    HN comments are really disparaging, but after reading through I really liked the content and am going to pull out their service / serializer model to use in my project. Nice opinionated way to avoid structuring a program in a bad way.

    I paid for neeva for something like 16 months and just cancelled last week. Load times for search were frequently >1s which seems ok the first few times, but after a while got annoying. Also ~20 esoteric programming queries a month would

    I have been in a recent period of intense non-fiction book reading recently (6 / month for past 3 months) and I realized a couple of things: 1. High-quality writing relaxes me to the point that I can enjoy learning at a much deeper lev

    Headlines like this count towards slowly eroding my faith in media. Not factually incorrect, but the intent only becomes obvious after reading.

    This is an absurd take. What would you have them do aside from call out a publicly bad actor explicitly? Seems like you are bending over backwards for a bad take.

    I think most adults are in a steady state for their habitual behaviors around diet / exercise / drinking / drugs. Would be surprised by anything larger than 10% change in control tbh

    This is a great read, but I keep getting pulled astray by the sheer volume of interesting links that the author has embedded in the text. I'm less than a third of the way through and have just finished my 3rd rabbit hole exploration.
