Classified ad revenue, which went almost completely to the publishers, went to $0. The split for online ad revenue has been less equitable.

Google killed journalism years ago. It was once a well compensated, high prestige job with nice perks. The recruits should get the money while they can. I've been very disappointed by the MSM over the last 15 years, but I think a good

Detecting account sharing is a tricky business. It's pretty easy to detect if one account is using two different machines. But it's quite hard to unambiguously say it's one person using both machines or two different people e

I've never heard of Castle before. Do any current Castle clients care to share opinions of their service as compared to Cloudflare Turnstile or Google ReCaptcha?

I guess, but pretty much every LLM is trained with data outside the public domain--whether they admit to it, or not.

I think they believe the moat, if any, is capital investment. So they found something new that works "better", but requires much more capital.

I have limited interest in reasoning models. I understand that LLMs get stuff wrong a lot, but at least give me that wrong answer now, so I can verify now. I don't want to wait minutes or longer for an answer and then still to go ver

Yes, but these drugs (and the vaccines) don't make nearly as much money if only taken by those with high risk profiles.

I'm bummed to have missed that when I was last there in 2024. Overall, I was pretty disappointed with the place. It's a good stop for kids under 7, though. To the contrary, I found the London science museum amazing. Great exhibits

The utility value of multi-line lambdas is real, but the readability of these is terrible. And Python prizes readability. So you know where this initiative will end up.

At the end of the day it comes down to enforcement. If the rules make no sense, and they can't be enforced. They might as well not exist.

Yes, open is overall a great thing. But what if I want my work not to be open source, and the LLMs make it so without my consent. As we've seen, this and related matters of fair use, are working their way through the courts.
