I am not a user yet, but from the outside this is just what AI needs: a little personality and fun to replace the awe/fear/meh response spectrum of reactions to prior services.

It was always theater, Bruce Schneier did a great set of blogs and tests back in the 2001+ time showing flaws throughout the process. At the same time, he pointed out that humanity had already adapted their response to airplane hijackings _

Articles like this where we lament being trapped in an ecosystem duopoly are contemporary with articles saying that software engineering is over and LLMs can just vibe code anything you imagine. What's keeping the duopoly in charge?. C

Are the folks still using ES simply unaware of the performance advantages of ClickHouse, or is there some use case that ES covers that CH is still missing?

The Farmer's Dog pub is listed as fucked, maybe this site could get a shout-out on Clarkson's Farm. The difficulty of doing business in the UK is a common theme on his show.

From observing my parents and other elders, it isn't "work" in the job sense that we all need. It is feeling needed by others. This can be accomplished by being an active grandparent, charity(active volunteering not just allo

Market forces are what cause different jobs to pay different amounts. Welders don't get paid high wages out of charity or respect, they get it because welders with sufficient skills are rare, so if you don't pay up you won't

I don't do the year thing, I just keep a single, ever-growing playlist of any song that triggers a memory. I use it as the default while driving, and take "phoned in" requests like a radio station to allow my kids to override

I think you're right that heavier elements can be made, it's just energy negative to do so. But without a nova they would never leave the inside of the star to find their way into a new planet.

GFW does indeed have man in the middle capabilities per the recent leaks of Geedge tech used in it. Your laptop might throw a warning for the fake signed cert, but devices in China that trust Chinese root CAs would not.

I think this is true but I don't feel like atrophied Assembler skills are a detriment to software development, it is just that almost everyone has moved to a higher level of abstraction, leaving a small but prosperous niche for those w

I love that this is just above the post on https://rein.pk/over-regulation-is-doubling-the-cost It's almost as if the world is complicated and every issue has multiple perspectives. Good luck "aligning", AGI.

Wouldn't this be a great use case of any agentic AI coding solution? A background agent scanning code/repo/etc and making suggestions both for and against dependency updates? Copilot seems well placed with its GitHub integrat

How do they hold back questions in practice though? These are hosted models. To ask the question is to reveal it to the model team.

I've worked with many folks over the years after learning myself... The feeling of complexity comes from not yet understanding that commits are just sets of changes to files. They are then thrown off the scent by new terms like origin

It is beautiful, even more colorful than the pictures to me, but it is always covered by steam to some extent. There are some smaller thermal pools near Old Faithful that have similar colors but let you get a closer look.

Three Cue-ing, the flawed idea is three-cueing (looking for context clues to figure out words you don't know). I didn't read the rest of the article out of infuriation with the number of times they alluded to and discredited the t

I think GP is suggesting that NASA administrators might have an incentive to apply budget cuts to programs that get more public outrage. However I would imagine human spaceflight to be the more visible type of program for the average voter.
