Unless you have friends without phones and live in a city without cameras, I think that's a pretty fair assumption

I agree that DPA:s, as they are written today, aren't good. I was just pointing out that the reality probably isn't as bad as the article made it sound. > If you don't see this as a problem, you are a part of the problem I

I work in this space for a competitor to Persona, so take my opinion as potentially biased, but I have two points: 1. just because the DPA lists 17 subprocessors, it doesn't mean your data gets sent to all of them. As a company you put

I'd be curious to know how people with aphantasia come up with ideas, or what they call that process if not imagination. The author has written books. Books have stories. Somehow she comes up with them. If that's not imagination,

Slightly off topic, but it's interesting to see the same phrase "the long now" pop up in different contexts independently and mean very different things: https://www.epsilontheory.com/the-long-now/ Both

One thing you notice immediately is _god_ how they babble... It's uncomfortable listening in on a bunch of AI:s insisting to each other how "they'll keep everything peaceful" over and over again

I tried doing the same thing, happy to see it worked out for somebody! I just didn't have the capital or social safety net to get the farm off the ground, so I eventually had to sell the farm and go back to coding. Someday though...

They mention billions of tokens, but I'm left wondering how much this experiment actually cost them...

The way I see it, the problem with LLMs is the same as with self-driving cars: trust. You can ask an LLM to implement a feature, but unless you're pretty technical yourself, how will you know that it actually did what you wanted? How

funny story: I got the wife of a friend to install tinder, a couple of years back when I was dating. I was having a hard time getting matches, so I figured I'd see how the other side lives. She created an empty profile, with a blurry h

would comparing bilateral blood pressure (which I assume the patient could do themselves) be enough? I'm not asking for medical advice, just like... what would _you_ do if it was you who had sudden chest pain?

I've been trying to get into swimming for years, but being on the ADHD-side instead, I just find it intolerably boring >.<

I don't really get what's special about OCaml with these points they raise? Wouldn't almost any strongly typed language do? Wouldn't TypeScript also tick all these boxes? EDIT: I wouldn't choose TypeScript either fo

I gave it a spin with Gravity's Rainbow. Most of the recommendations are what you'd expect, Pynchon himself, Don Delillo, David Foster Wallace... and then right at the end... The Hobbit, or There and Back Again >.<

Could be a cliff fitness function. Heard about this relativ typ schizophrenia here on HN a while back. The idea is that some phenotypes promote survival of the species overall, but due to random mutations are sometimes detrimental to indivi

"Normies"? Everything is relative, I guess. I use 1Password and just hope for the best.

I love this, and I don’t mean to throw any shade on it, but this is kind of thing I’d the best to come out of the ”vibe coding” revolution. I don’t know if this was vibe coded, but what I mean to say is that there are a million things that

I always thought that was just blood flow in the ears. Would make sense if that would cause _some_ noise.

So they were asking beginner lifters to rate how many they would have left in the tank? I've been lifting for maybe half a year and I still find it pretty hard to estimate >.< It's good that it's studied, but it does so

The way I understood it creatine by itself doesn't promote muscle gain all that much. It's the fact that you can potentially do one to three more reps which does. But that still means you have to do the reps. https://l

This is really interesting! Never thought of that. Do you have a source for these facts?

Like with a lot of countries in South America, there are certainly places you shouldn't just wander about in. VRAEM in Peru is another example. But there is a lot of tourism in Bolivia. Most places are perfectly safe. Lonely Planet can

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean, and I really don't mean to be the language police, but I don't think "royal we" means what you intend it to mean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R
