This needs to include life-changing false positive rates. Imagine being given a diagnosis like this - people around you who know and any corporations who can sniff it out by snooping on your communications can lead to much rejection early i

I don’t say it to justify what linkedin is doing - there is no justification for that. I say it to warn those who are conscious of it that there are more places that will harvest the data and use it.

The well is drying. You have less money available for hustling and less small players with money. With layoffs happening everywhere you have more people with ambition and time on their hands, but less of them can afford big expenses or majo

Yes, hands down the best show! They need to do more seasons, especially with modern day problems. Other thoughtful and well made shows: Dark Matter, For All Mankind, Foundation (also Lee Pace and also stellar).

I grew up in that world. People making 150 per month would have kids carrying 600 phones just to put something on the table. In eastern europe, an adidas track suit seemed like Armani, when advertising just started after the fall of communi

Freedom is not “doing anything you want”. It’s “not having to do the things you don’t want to do”. AI may automate a white colar subset of those, but modern day society has for the longest time used wives, young people, immigrants from coun

Excellent point. Currently HN accounts get much higher scores if they contribute content, than if they make valuable comments. Those should be two separate scores. Instead, accounts with really good advice have lower scores than accounts th

The author attributes meaning for the giver and hopefully receiver to time spent by the giver. They argue less time spent for same utility lowers the meaning. I see something very different: 1. The government post shared as an example of ef

Nevada protects founders from shareholder lawsuits. So if someone defrauds or intends to defraud shareholders - they are more likely to prefer Nevada. To be fair, a lot of things can turn into a shareholder lawsuit in Delaware.

How do you do objective research without a data pipeline? Social media companies can use user privacy as an excuse to not share feeds that influence users. The first step to fixing the wrongs is transparency, but there are no incentives for
