I wouldn't feel bad for their executives. They are the ones who chose the 'growth at all costs' path, and this is what you get. They could've probably been sustainable and profitable if they mainly serviced their core au

Agreed, I'm also not invested in crypto but Vitalik seems like one of the genuine people in the space. It's the unfortunate attraction of the Ponzi grifters and get-rich-quick influencer types that tainted the whole ecosystem.

TMZ are pretty much the de facto celebrity deaths reporters. They wouldn't risk their reputation by making up stuff like that.

Maybe this is regional but all these comments seem way overblown. Just learn to spot death caps and if you're not sure, avoid mushrooms with gills completely and pick only ones with the spongy undersides like summer caps. I've ea

New cars in general are a luxury. Lots of people rely on their 2k beater to get to work, shop for groceries and drop off kids at school. Should they be priced out of the economy completely?

I'm going to go against the grain here and say that the quoted statement does not seem entirely false at all. It is reductionist, but it highlights the fact that the models are indeed just generating numbers confined to a GPU, and don&

I think big companies do constantly need to remind people of their brand with ads to preserve it. That's why you see Coca-Cola ads everywhere, despite everyone already knowing who they are and what they sell.

In the UK at least, most major ISP block torrent sites, and if a copyright holder complains to the ISP that your IP was downloading a movie they have the rights to, you may get a warning letter from your ISP through the post, including the

The only thing people use that valuable asset is to then sell it and buy a bigger house. If all houses go down in value then that bigger house is also cheaper now. I never understood this mantra of why house prices _NEED_ to go up. They don

As a consumer of the library, how will I know which calls need to have the using keyword? Is it a case of having to rely on the documentation stating so, or is there some other tell that something contains a Symbol.dispose function?

It's probably the point, they want the official app to be the only choice, so they can control everything and show you more unblockable ads.

The author is a teenager, it's not unusual to have overly idealistic views at that age. Not trying to be ageist here or attacking the author's work, just saying I wouldn't worry too much about "AI death cults"

I didn't comment on whether it was the bank's fault or not, I merely wish there wasn't a difference in outcomes depending on whether you complain to the media or not.

I would suggest against it, Discord is the de facto standard, especially with the younger crowd, millennials and Gen Z. Everyone already has it installed and everyone knows exactly how it works, and it also "just works". I've
