How is it discriminating content? It’s not putting restrictions on content that can be shown.

I think the C-suite may have more exposure to the many roles in a company. As an example the help desk function is likely to be transformed. Loan processors (the people reading your basic loan application details), farther out the underwrit

Beer perhaps is a poor analogy because it’s been around forever. A better analogy are drugs. We have approval process for drugs to safeguard against harm and addictions. I believe that social media could be transformatively positive for soc

And your daily 15 minute conversation is nothing compared to the pressure they’ll feel from peers and the addictive loops built into the apps. One child has been good and deleted one app, but slowly time spent in the other app has been incr

I just tried to put in a 60 min limit and my child freaked out. She claims her peer groups just sit and watch TikTok during lunch. So as a parent I can make my child the one that stands out from their peers. And for many teens being differe

It’s clear to me that we need laws restricting what’s allowed. We now have evidence that the apps are addictive. We have precedence restricting addictions (alcohol/gambling). It should then be possible to restrict companies from creati

And if this use case hit any kind of scale. We’d just have an llm generate a parser and be back to microseconds. This was just a blog to generate traffic on the site. Not to showcase some new use case for an llm.

My understanding is that it’s not just about the soap. But also to restrict the amount of oil, gas and salt getting washed down the storm drains. Places like Vancouver use street cleaning machines in the spring to sweep up any salt on the s

I suspect it’s the licensing fee to Dolby that is the cost driver.

I did that. Then saw that filtering was inconsistent. It turns out that some systems treat the DNS list as alternatives, not as primary and failover. The spec only says the dns IPs should be specified in preference order. Nothing says to

I have a 10 year old Bosch. A part recently failed. I repaired it myself. During the repair I noticed that this thing was built for repairability. The parts manual is available online. The company seems to take an interest in quality. I jus

You are right. Americans will be fine. We’ve got enough money to fortify cities from rising waters. Well maybe not some poor areas. But we’ve never cared about the poors, so they can suffer. The border will be where the American crisis exis

Isn’t it possible to setup a default search domain. So most places you could just type something like https://site/ and your dns config knows to look for https://site.internal/

I can see one benefit to this approach. Messing up your .internal configuration won’t result in leaking queries to the public. And maybe secondarily this may encourage tool development for supporting internal names and make it easier for se

That argument is flawed. A well-run healthcare system keeps people out of the healthcare system. Eg. every $1 spent in preventive care avoids $10 (not actual numbers) in other costs down the road through surgeries and other services. Transl

I've seen a variation of this problem firsthand. Working at a cable company where they contracted out to vendors most of their software development. They had a few internal systems that they developed in-house and would only hire &#x27

> climate change weakens the jetstream... this is a symptom of something much larger. I don't like being downvoted when I'm right, so here are some sources for those doubting my comment. The cold in western Canada is from a Pol

That data of coldest days each year is not sufficient to draw any conclusions from. Yes, Calgary gets cold that's clearly not new. What is new, that from some quick google searches, this year they've had both record cold and recor

As I read that report it seems to conclude that the rich nations will benefit from climate change. Which I suppose may explain why those same nations have largely done nothing to address carbon emissions.

Not sure that’s true. It means droughts for the grain growing regions. It means extreme cold/warm cycles in the winter will kill off trees in the forests. It means more extreme cold days like this that puts stresses on their infrastruc

My understanding is climate change weakens the jetstream, which results in more frequent winds pushing cold air from the North Pole to the south, and pushing that cold air farther south. Remember a few years back when Texas froze? Climate c

MBAs are the symptom, the root cause is elsewhere. I would lean on the ever increasing desire for company’s to grow. We need to move away from this broken concept of maximizing shareholder value above all other concerns.

It would simply become a part of the iCloud+ bundle and contribute to service revenue. Hell, that’s likely what will happen anyway. The models run on device with cloud assistance.

My observation is that publishers have already pushed authors to write shorter novels and simply split those into multiple parts. Why sell one book when you can sell a three part series. This means the 15 hour limit is likely to only affect

Words matter. So let’s be clear on both sides. It isn’t piracy. It isn’t stealing. It’s copyright infringement.

If you make it cheaper then people will do more of it. Look at how much more graphic design is starting to happen now that you can create an image in a few minutes. So it means we’ll get more development projects because they’ll be cheaper.

There was a post on HN months back about testimony to Congress. I forget the details except for one graph. Clear and direct correlation between the rise in social media and teen mental health issues. The number of teen girls that I’ve seen
