He starts by saying that in the US, social media owners are not responsible for crimes committed by their users. How does that relate to the Kim DotCom case? Is piracy treated differently?

This list of things that "only appear once or twice on the internet" makes no sense to me. Many are things that don't exist at all, depending on how you define it. A guess the best defense of Claude is that the question is

Par for the course since at least 1947 when they ditched the name "Department of War" for "Department of Defense".

Off topic, but a funny thing about asking about George Washington's birthday is there are two possible answers because of British calendar reform in 1750 (although we've settled on recognizing the new-style date as his birthday).

You might want to update the README where it says run "./conda.sh" - it should say there are hard-coded paths in this script that need to be changed (the first line is CONDA_BASE="/home/rawalk/anaconda3&qu

When Musk says X is all about freedom of speech, remind him that one of its biggest owners is intimately tied to a government that executes people for mild criticism.

It's a shame there's so many different names for a set of very related (or identical?) concepts. For example wikipedia says "tagged union" is also known as "variant, variant record, choice type, discriminated union

This is a good idea for this app, but maybe the least realistic part of the old TV experience. You'd have maybe 3 "premium" channels of a mix of tv shows, news, talk shows, sports. Maybe a dedicated sports channel and dedica

I'd guess one issue is the number of items. Radial probably only works for 6 or less. With a scrollable list, any number would work (And many popups have a variable number of options).

If we have smart AIs to write code, find bugs, and write tests - doesn’t that mean we can ditch the “safe” languages and go back to C? Thats mostly a joke. But AI-hardened-C seems like it could be much better than current-human-only-C.
