It's probably that too, but if you look a little deeper you will see they put their thumb on the scale in all of their products. Google News media bias representation, manually curated search suggestions, even Google images has very s

Seems like the first prima facie good idea in a while, I'm wondering how they will screw it up.

Huh? If you have any stack exchange points you can just edit the answer and move on. If you have like 500 points or so on one site you automatically get privileges on all the others.

Students will need to start screen recording all their assignments now. The nice thing is that if you wait until the school fails you or kicks you out you might be able to sue and get your degree paid for by the proceeds.

Ok phys.org let's not pretend that most of the PFAS contamination came from firefighting efforts rather than just dumping it into the ground or water.

Hahaha it's too funny it's actually a YC company, sometimes stereotypes are justified

by khaki54 3y ago
I thought by putting the YC class in Winter 2025 it would be obvious. Funny there is actually a checkr site that has a similar theme. Really I was too on the nose with this one

Section 230 is designed to allow platforms to avoid liability from what users post, giving users the freedom to post their thoughts and content and shifting legal responsibility back to them. Nothing wrong with that, and a net positive for

I have these in my house. They work super good, and I usually plug them in to a switch that can do 2.5Gb and then from there any media devices or AP. What's interesting is they are not point to point, they're like a bus topology

Michigan DNR thinks having the mouth in that spot is better for the wetlands attached to the river. NPS thinks it's worse. It's not clear cut by any means

I go to that spot every summer. No, the guy didn't hurt anything, and essentially "restored" it to how it's been the last 40+ years. If anything, what he did improves the dunes in that area. Would I have done it, no, t

Yes that's it. And by not dredging the mouth, it invalidates 2 boat launches. This is near a bunch of campgrounds and such and people fish out of there and go camping.

Lake michigan is similar to the ocean and it's an unprotected area. It would be very hard to launch most days directly onto lake michigan from that spot if there were a boat launch. The boat launch people like to use is very nice, be

The dude dug the canal because they stopped dredging the mouth of the river. Used to be much easier for people on the river to get in and out, and also there is a boat launch near the mouth of the river that is super useful, but lately you

Thanks for the billions in revenue, but remember how I told you to quit trying to use GaN to solve the blue LED problems? Well here's $147 for your patent and clean out your desk, because you're fired.

This is all pretty nice but it seems like changing the default iteration character will cause you heartburn. The other items seem like a great idea and could save you some headscratching.

Really? What about "look how clever the Indians/ natives are?" Not everything is racism. A similar result occurs every time something like this is tried regardless of race. Countless examples including in the U.S. and yea

Ignoring this case specifically, but speaking in generalities, it seems crazy that states can prosecute a president when out of office. Politically motivated actors could tie a national figure up indefinitely and bankrupt them. A state
