Agreed in spirit, but fortunately school shootings isn’t a problem in the country I reside. Mental health though is definitely a huge issue though, but I’m not sure how we can fix that. Remembering myself as a teen, anything that was told t

I still think it’s a very cultural thing, since even 0.01% per year would be a huge number for your child to be in a school shooting. Maybe it’s an “outsider perspective”, but school shootings is not even a talking point in most of the plac

You’re arguing 0.7% chance of being in a school shooting shouldn’t worry a teenager, for other commentators that’s just a mind-blowing percentage. I think that’s a cultural distinction, since if that was the case, most of people I know woul

Very hard to achieve when majority of your voters actually own a house, and a significant amount of retirement funds are based on these house prices. People simply won’t vote for an actual fix until there are more renters than owners.

A single data point from my perspective - live in a “city”, sure things gotten rougher since the pandemic, but it’s all alive. My direct family lives in bigger cities (New York, Toronto), and even though things are not the best, people are

Not that I support AI regulations, but reading a book is a higher barrier to entry than asking a chat assistant to do immoral things.

I personally know people spending 6 figures at the minimum on SEO, because they see huge conversion rates for their own businesses (which are not web-based stuff by the way, more of a niche in person technical services).

The general attitude in my circles is none of those technologies have had any positive impact on our or our loved one’s lives. Don’t get me wrong, they’re all “cool and awesome”, but when you put it into perspective of “is life easier” or “

Not the OP, but the way I look at it - exfiltration of secrets can happen in any other possible way anyways, and you would need to lock down most of your SaaS software. I treat GPT the same I would treat any other Google search - don’t shar

Fair, I guess, I have limited knowledge in this space, and it’s hard to imagine where and how these people would switch to.

Disclaimer: I am pretty pro AI. To your point about it being good for small and medium sized businesses — let’s assume it gets rid of a significant amount of workers. Who would be the consumers of these products, other small/medium siz

I think the problem is, cow milk alternatives are becoming a problem for established corporations, since the younger generation isn’t 100% into milk. Demographics problems basically, if your older generation keeps dying, younger ones are no

Wouldn’t say it’s governments, but unfortunately homeowners (which is the majority of the population in some of these, like Canada) can’t afford their house price to go down. Quite a significant amount of them rely on it as their retirement

Significant portion of population will always act against status quo even if the data is accurate to the T. Something about “don’t let perfect be enemy of the good” heavily applies to climate modeling, in my opinion. Worst case scenario, we

A non-insignificant amount of freelance writers are (were?) just writing spam blogs for SEO (aka “marketing copy”). Which in its turn funnels the search results into their actual money making business. Very rarely it’s done for the purpose

Quite a few comments talk about education and knowledge, but from my personal experience that’s not the main thing these colleges offer. It’s the connections, the circles you build and a jump start into a “better life” (fairly subjective to

You still have some sort of spatial awareness while using a phone, which makes it more acceptable to use in public. Like, if I’m dining solo, and a waiter comes by, I will still acknowledge their existence and be able to respond to them, ha

Pardon my general ignorance in this topic, but it’s those energy, water and food demand would still be applicable no matter where people live, no? The denser the population, easier to deliver said things (something alike economy of scale).

For every data point like this, there’s also data like mine - I met incredible people during my university years. Especially the first two years when we all lived on campus, we were basically a family. Even though we’re in different coasts

My guess is cascading effect of failures (slower delivery of messages, some internal connection issues, probably degraded database and etc.) that caused a bigger problem that they're trying to fix. That, or DNS.

Reddit isn't really used as "defacto source of breaking news". I mean, local subreddits and other things stiff get prompt information, but it doesn't get as much wide coverage as Twitter.

Not sure if it’s a relevant comment, but I know personally 5 people who worked on the show in Calgary, and 4 of them are gay. It’s similar to people bashing White Lotus for having too many non-straight characters, when in fact, the showrunn

I read the “citation needed” comment as “in real life people don’t care, it’s just chronically online people that rush from one boycott to another”. Which I think applies to JK Rowling as well, since the new Harry Potter game is making a ba
