AI that is indistinguishable from reality is a certainty for the not-so-distant future. That future will come, and it will come sooner than anyone's expecting. Yet all I see is society trying to prevent the inevitable from installing

A bit disappointed that the wiki article makes no mention of the (apparent?) paradox of the message itself making the page no longer be blank!

It's weird that we live in a time where my initial reaction upon reading your comment was "this guy is definitely an AI bot". "That" phrasal structure + freshly created account? I'm simultaneously thinking that

Oh, I didn't know it was time for HN's biweekly Kagi post. Those are invaluable, I use them as a personal reminder for me to water my cactus.

One of the timeless treasures of the internet for sure. It's a pity that, nowadays, that kind of content is customarily hidden inside the noisy mazes of some unnecessary Discord server or social platform. It's time we stopped call

My guess is that it was set to always prefer the Spanish audio track, and the 5pm program was the first to have it.

The point you raise is one of the things most people -- professional translators, even -- get very, very wrong when translating (books, movie subtitles, game dialogue, you name it). "How do you say 'phrase' in [target languag

Holy moly. As a kid, Deneba Canvas was something I'd play with all the time on my Macintosh. That Ferrari sample would take forever to load and render on screen, and child me would look at it in awe, thinking the amount of detail was i

Here's an interesting tidbit about Jorge Luis Borges that may have inspired him to write that story. First, some backstory: "Under his grandmother's tutelage, Borges learned to read English before he could read Spanish. [
