On the rare occasions where I would care about this as a user, I make a throwaway account on an anonymous service. If I don't want my email service to know I have an account with you then I don't trust you to handle my main addres

I take the opposite view about size. I am already carrying a phone which is acceptable for reading on (or TTS to my headphones). If I expect to have the chance to read at length then I am willing to pack a larger ereader.

Forbidding things doesn't work. Not for kids and not for adults. Hence speakeasys and the end of prohibition, or the war on drugs (which was won by drugs).

If I pay for legal advice from you and all you did was give me chat gpt output, I can't sue openai anyway. This just clarifies that you can't put 'powered by chatgpt' on your AI lawyer service.

I doubt many people shopping for a sandwich and an unfashionable suit will be thinking about the M&S hack.

Nobody suggested rewriting Excel or even customising libre office. These projects are often ERPs which get customised to the client's requirements. Chaos and ballooning costs often follow for all the usual reasons.

True the UK has some decent government websites, but those were against a wider trend of huge government spending on all the well-known big tech firms.

Still puts them in a weak position to critique others on their use of words. We might like to hold the BBC to a higher standard but none of the big news sites are good at details like this.

Reminds me how the Sinclair C5 failed because the inventor couldn't source a 15 mile long power lead.

Do you have the option to run on a local model? Lots of firms don't want data or prompts going outside the local network

Just another rent-seeker. I mostly choose books based on word of mouth recommendations or liking other things by the same author. This is very resistant to slop from AI and to the large amounts of rubbish that has always been published.

I never put personal mementos on my desk in any job regardless of employment type. Didn't know I was supposed to.

I can't guess at the specifics of that situation but if someone has cause to cry it's not like you can just ask them to do their crying outside of working hours. On the other hand maybe they have very little cause.

Osm is a database (in the Wikipedia sense not the Postgres sense). You will be able to use osm data in this tool.

That's a really interesting site. Thanks for the tip.

Surely all three possibilities exist? One reason I come here is people linking to interesting writing that I wouldn't otherwise hear about.

I like that they chose sending an email newsletter over having a social media channel - avoiding another type of unwanted noise.

Not just the extra demand from people avoiding public transport but supply chain disruption caused by COVID affected the supply of new cars (and spare parts), so people who wanted a new car were now considering new-ish cars.

I don't think they should resign, I just want to be clear that this is taking a stand which won't cost them their pay.

Time was when the liberal press looked down on journalists who were embedded with the military. The article mentions one who has had a desk in the pentagon for almost two decades. I would question the independence of someone so well embedde

Do you know if apple is using their new tools to do mail filtering? It's an interesting choice if they are since it's a genuine problem with a mature (but always evolving) solution.

A black swan is something you didn't even imagine before encountering it. If you never imagined anything like COVID that's likely because your day job is unrelated to health emergency preparedness.
