Wrong. Sorry, but totally, completely wrong. 99% of people with the kind of money he has are nowhere near as happy as him. Many "poor" people are just as happy as him. The kind of money he has ruins the personal lives of so m

I saw a tweet that said, "2000 years from now nobody will know the difference between a booty call and a butt dial, and this is why the Bible is hard for us to understand." So yes, this very well could confuse archeologists in the

Pretty wild that clay tablets are the longest lasting data storage that we know. I wonder if anyone is working on storing more than just tweets on clay tablets, you know, just in case?

That's exactly what these changes do, but they don't become the default because a lot of people only store text in got so they don't want the downsides of these changes

I'm confused, is this FUSE as in Filesystem in User space?

I think you are making a good point, but please don't use the old Steve Baller FUD term, "viral." Copyleft is a better term

Daily contact lenses have several advantages. They: - don't accumulate gunk over days/weeks/months that can cause injury and/or infection - are cheap to replace if torn or lost (which happens with tiny transparent thing

Constantly tweaking settings is not a use-case they have optimized for. Most of their customers are small IT shops that support small/medium sized businesses. They set up a network for a few doctors offices, law firms, etc. by clicki

I feel like the discussion here is missing the point. It doesn't matter if the AI overview is correct or not, it doesn't matter if you can turn it off or not. People are using it instead of visiting actual websites. Google has

This should be the top comment! Thank you for posting it because I'm starting to worry that I'm the only one who realizes how ridiculous this all is.

I agree. It's an interesting side note that it was cited in the Anthropic case, but the way it was used in that case is so weird that it really took away from the whole thing. It just kinda made me angry (again) about LLMs using all

"just running it" is an enormously absurd simplification

What is the overall feedback loop with LLMs writing code? Do they learn as they go like we do? Do they just learn from reading code on GitHub? If the latter, what happens as less and less code gets written by human experts? Do the LLMs

Came here to comment on the same thing. I've never been able to articulate this as well as the author did, and it is so true! Every programming language requires you to solve some puzzles that are just in the way of the real problems

I agree that passkeys are overly complicated, but they are in no way a worse security model than passwords. That is ludicrous. The password security model is an incredibly low bar to clear if you want better security. Also, passkeys work

Services manage to "block" my password manager all the time by confusing it to the point where I have to copy and paste my password manually. It's a huge security risk (because where am I actually pasting this password?), an

Passwords are a shared secret. You know it, and the website you are logging into knows it. If the website leaks it, someone else can log in as you. Passkeys are a private key/public key pair. You give the public key to a website, bu

How would that work? You'd type your question as a code comment maybe, and the IDE would do a Google search for you?
