I meant I don't care to argue. I've had this conversation too many times, and it does have the setting. You can Google it to figure out how to change it.

That's a different argument, and not one I really care about. It's no more "addictive" than tv and way less harmful

Interestingly if you read the actual report from HRW, it sounds like most of the material they are referring too was legitimately taken down because it supported violence, according to Meta's policies. For example, the phrase "fro

I did work on ranking at Meta. The vast majority of people really do not prefer the chronological feed. We validated this by extraordinarily high powered randomized trials, including with surveys. No more than 20% of people preferred a chro

I know at least 3 people who spent the last few years living in a van while making over $200k a year. Mostly to travel, but some just enjoy the lifestyle.

What? I was replying to your claim "The core problem people have with TikTok", which is about TT, not NYT. My point is that it's not the core problem people have with tiktok in this case. Currently every top level comment her

That may be so, but the article doesn't say anything about "facts" or "substance" of the content. It says "People need to stop coming into our community and exploiting us and profiting off what we are going thr

The first text in the NYT article on my phone is "Brooke Peder’s leg was amputated after an infection from a tranq wound bore into the bone. She hopes to save her arm, although she reluctantly injects tranq in it." They are both r

In the US you have a constitutional right to photograph people in public. Laws only regulate what you do with those photos. Sharing on tiktok doesn't seem to violate the laws I'm familiar with but I don't really know.

It's interesting to me that the line between "this is important journalism" and "this is bad and we should stop it" seems to be arbitrary aesthetics around distribution medium and production style. If this is bad, w

Which law does this violate?

To the extent that it is relevant to what I was replying to, you absolutely can opt out of "collecting info on what you watch and associating that with your google account for cross-marketing elsewhere on the web". https:/&#

I fought with the review admins about this crap a lot when I was at Google. When you're working toward readability, code that isn't related to change is not in scope. The reviewer can comment on it but you're not expected to

One difference I would guess is scale. In SF there are AI meetups every day, and the big ones on weekends have literally hundreds of developers actively writing code all day. There are typically at least 2 events with >100 developers eve

The reason why it isn't useful to ascribe intentions without a mechanistic explanation of intentionality is because you will incorrectly predict what the model will do in surprising ways. I think it's true that current generation

To establish bounds in this way, you have to start with some claim about the distribution of the input data. In this case, the data is natural human language, so it's difficult or impossible to directly state what distribution the inpu

Google's cheapest paid plan ($6/month) gives you 30GB. The $12/month plan is 2TB of storage. I currently have over 30GB of email in Gmail and everything works fine.

This is about displaying ads in the Gmail UI, not reading email content.

Worth noting that Google does not do what you're describing. Google has never literally "sold" data from Gmail and stopped using it for their own ads ~6 years ago.

Sorry but the claim in this article is not correct (on Android) and is proposing a bad solution to the problem you're trying to solve. First, nobody is stopping you from doing this. I just spent 30 seconds installing the first app I fo
