I'm excited for this. I've found Kagi to be very useful having widgets like this, in addition to the search results being good. I still have DDG as my search engine for ephemeral searches[1] on my phone and I'm getting sick o

Oh, yes, that makes more sense. Still, native typing is not even on the horizon for ES, so I think my point stands for businesses that are heavily invested in supporting TS. TS is what we need today, it doesn't make sense to ignore it

Is that a good reason to write in raw JS today? I'm not betting anything on TypeScript. It was released 11 years ago, and it's incredibly valuable to me. If it takes another 5 years for ES to implement first-class types, and it&#x

What you seem to be saying is that you have absolutely no doubt that it's reasonable to diagnose mental conditions based on a single short comment posted online. That is, simply put, wrong and dangerous.

I don't actually expect consumer preference is or ever has been a primary factor. It's cheaper and more reliable to ship plastic bottles. Manufacturers will use them for those reasons and then we'll buy them because it&#x

What's the definition of environmental impact you're working with? I think microplastic pollution is horrible. It's arguably worth putting extra carbon in the atmosphere to avoid plastic pollution. I'm not actually sure.

> His current job requires him to be good at interviews I see. I had no idea that was a requirement of being a professional pianist. This all read as incredibly pointless with me thinking that interviews were a side thing for a pianist.

Thanks. I have yet to read the first 3, so I'll add them to the list. If I'm lucky, maybe I'll stumble into that art-project novel.

I've almost never been part of an interview so well thought-out, but I continue to hope to be. I find this is also helpful reading for candidates.

"Prosecuting individual actors" and "treating corporations as hostile entities" are not mutually exclusive; indeed I'd say we should all strive to do both.

I really need an Abridged New Yorker feed. I love about 20-30% of their articles, by volume, but they're so, uh, "well written", that they're difficult to even scan for high-value information.

Yeah I question if it's something we even could do. But even if is, it's going to kill and hurt a lot of people. Probably less than setting every electrical device on (half of) the planet on fire or whatever, but good luck con

It also means that anyone can report any result at all and claim it's real, unfortunately. Without a reproducible receipt of conversation, any report of an AI conversation could be very easily faked.
