The tax filing industry is against it, essentially. Various attempts by the IRS to move in this direction have been stopped. There used to be a libertarian wing that thought paying taxes should be a little painful so people wouldn't vo

I wonder if willingness to be involved with Bitcoin is a flag for scammers? It at least raises the chance you'll have a wallet or other program around and therefore more payoff for easy hacks

If you could pay for web ads in the same way you could pay for a billboard (flat rate per period of time) yeah that would help. if you pay per impression or view or click you have some other issues

I assume it's the filtering - detect the user is a bot, don't even load the ads, etc?

I wonder if LLM agents will know to go for apis and data or if they'll keep naively scraping in the future. A lot of traffic could come down to "find me x product online" chats eventually

50k to 47 conversions seems like a noticeable increase in fakeness to me at least. that's going from more than half fraud to essentially only fraud with a rounding error amount of real users

In theory if you have a lot of fake traffic then ads on your site will have an even worse conversion rate than normal?

Thank you for this thoughtful explanation Do you think recent findings about early human sites on other continents (Americas etc) change any of this, or does that still mostly fit with our understanding? My layman's knowledge is that t

I've heard of school districts doing simulated shootings with BB guns, masked men going through the halls to shout at the students, etc. That seems like needlessly frightening theater for no real gain (and might confuse the students ,a

Top image is definitely AI, watermarked though so they're not hiding that. I do see a lot of em dashes throughout the opening, but at least one of them seems proper. "Inside, the iLife A11 wasn’t just a vacuum cleaner; it was a sm

Those last ones reflect the dominant employment sector in each city, right? That seems like what you'd want to see given a lot of viewers will be involved in that kind of news or want updates on it?

I've read some early reviews of a licensed alien shooter where they complain about how confusing the control scheme is - left stick for movement and right for aim. Before Halo it wasn't really intuitive I guess?

That's winner - any for "will he be on at least one state ballot?"

I mean he's selling the hats and I've seen some talking heads on the news say they'll look at ways for him to do it. The two term limit is a kinda recent precedent all things considered, so...

Much like grooming a natural heir, you can hope that someone will keep your legacy going, make decisions you would make, run your business, and so on. I can see it as a rational strategy if you're worried successors won't be up to

How's China doing? They seem to have a lot of research going on that feeds into their manufacturing fairly quickly from the papers I hear about

Some people like to think that we were brutal or cruel in the ancient past and would have left people to die. (Generally I think the implication is that we should do this again?)

I swear during the earlier waves of bitcoin mining (before good ASICs came out) people ran them overclocked and did cause damage. Used GPUs were pretty unreliable for a while there.
