Why would someone be upset over getting xAI on top of having twitter equity?

I think you’re showing us how low someone can go alright.

Sounds like the success rate of Arthur Andersen. Whatever happened to them? A pollster’s reputation isn’t everything, but it’s close.

It’s more of a systemic failure than a single mistake. If you’re a business that releases one major product version every year or two that accounts for your entire revenue, and you completely blow the product on the last release, there’s a

I just checked out your prior submission. The title didn’t really sell what the game is, it just lists some technical features you like. Then opening the link takes you to a page with a play button, and clicking it takes you an account crea

grooveshark aggregated from blogs and other web sources. If I recall correctly you could follow links back to those places. Back then the web was full of decentralized independent writers doing music reviews or producing mixes or capturing

The way most online stores let you buy music is drm free. Seems like a no brainer that this is how it works. I mean if I lose my copy of any media I own and the seller that provided isn’t around, that’s on me, right?

HN has been reduced to reddit over the previous few years, sorry to say. Yes, it is broken. Some cool hobbyist projects get some attention here and there but a cultural tumor has metastasized among its audience.

There is almost always a non-malicious explanation when it comes to complex technology systems acting in ways that appear politically malicious. You’d think the hackernews crowd would bias towards curiosity over impulsivity.

how did free speech become fascist? even in this ludicrous essay, which claims meta announced it will "increase the hate speech people like me receive". no, it announced reduced filtering of content. what is more conformist than f

You're welcome to your opinion, but this view of adversarial views and people who hold them is building precisely no bridges from your silo. Listening to someone talk it out for an hour or more, and flesh out their views without consta

I have a garmin enduro 2 that I got for under $500 with some discounts. When tracking activities with GPS it lasts for over 100 hours, closer to 150 if you’re benefiting from some solar charging. In normal smartwatch mode it gets up to 40 d

A totalitarian leader flagrantly violating his own country's constitution is now "the rules of a country" probably because the guy you dislike is associated with the other side.

A. This is the dissent from Sotomayor, panned by pretty much every major legal figure. It is not a ruling, it is not binding, and it is not necessarily accurate. Just like, I don't know, listen to a Supreme Court podcast if you're

Free speech includes things that are offensive to your sensibilities. There's a lot of this unhinged stuff on X - no question - but IMO I've seen so much more good, critical discussion come out of the Elon takeover that I'm f
