I mean, short answer is that of course they're absolutely useful if you sit behind security firewalls. Is that not enough?

I think the fear theory of economy would have so.ething to say about this. (Not an economis, just a participant). People like Trump understand that inducing and the capitalizing on fear, praying in the weak, is a tried and true means of tur

Does anyone find it strange that this argument is always boolean? (Child of the late 70's/early 80's here) At my current and prior company everyone enjoys the freedom of adulthood. Of course there are massive productivity ben

That's great, thanks for the read. I feel like there should be a bounty for finding Moose Boulder now (at the end of the story the adventurer is headed back at some point just to be sure he didn't miss it on his first go-round whe

Well, I enjoyed my last 20 minutes perusing such hidden gems as "christmas island", "just room enough island", and my personal favorite - "the world's most recursive island" in Canada. Well done - saved an

OK, so, extend that philosophy to any media content. The method I describe above would force whomever is publishing content that that want to "seem legitimate" assign a human person (digital signature) as the source. Then, it woul

I don't understand why prominant people, who are in the public eye (politicians, pop artists, other narcissists) don't just digitally sign their content and maintain a crosse-referenceable ledger (on a site they or trusted 3rd par

I'm sorry, but I read the first line of this paper and was already confuzzled: "Cannabis use is prevalent in schizophrenia and its risk states, despite its association with anxiety and positive symptoms." Did they mean "

By "fully AI-generated", do you mean that an AGI instance was spun-up, allowed to evolve, and decided to make this video?

Good read for me. I'm always fascinated by people that challenge the idea of a monetary-based society -- what is money, fundamentally? Is it the best way? (Disclaimer [confession?]: I make more money than I need, more than I ever thoug

Fair enough. So, the bottom line is that that type of journalism is much harder than just reporting what you can see through a camera lens or reported on state media. I am always impressed by those embedded journalists. I mean, talk about g

Lol, yes, it matters. That haven't done anything yet . Governments are subject to coups all the time[1] (and thanks to Trumpalumpa ding dong, the US presidency is no exception) 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lis

Behind a paywall, otherwise would have read. However, I do appreciate the approach to poll how the masses actually feel about what decisions their overlords are implementing. I feel like the former is as important, if not more so than the l

Clearly the intent was well intentioned, but at the same time, conflicts with a fairly obvious legal boundary. Curious if HN founders have run into similar practical issues.

Maybe rephrase your title using "Ask HN:" Also, if you included a link, I'd check it out, but I have no idea what you're actually referring to. Color me curious though

I like the idea. That challenge is clearly seeding content and getting inital votes. Maybe start with survey monkey to get initial inputs. Alternatively, you could employ an algorithm that determined a ranking for any question by scraping t

Yeah, (and I realize this is all based on a half-remebered law) but the OP said the law only obligated the company to support the SW fully "during the licensing period". In my experience, most perpetual licenses come with some ini

Also not a lawyer, but TikTok is a prominent mode of media, nonetheless. We are slowly turning into China and Russia, with fully governed state controlled media which is the opposite of free speech. As a US taxpayer, I'm appalled that

No idea what's underlying this post. I do think it's kind of amusing to think how little serious time humanity as a whole spends thinking about how (and preparing for when) human civilization (e.g. what it means to work, believe i
