I always felt it was a matter of time before Google took notice. It has always been odd to me they didn’t have this functionality years ago. It’s been requested for a long long time

This is what I have seen too. Outside my tech literate bubble there’s no call to host their own things that’s being heard followed or shared. Whet I hear alot about is regulation, which is a bit new, particularly with social media platforms

Personally I’m glad that big IP came in and smashed the AI companies like this. They been relentlessly ripping off smaller creators for some time now. It opens the precedent for those creators to now also hold these companies responsible. T

It’s a communal thing. It’s more than just the sport it’s also about being out with other fans, showing support and usually friendly ribbing of the opposing teams fans from time to time. That is how it was explained to me when I said someth

Avatar is a good example. I enjoyed each one in the theater but I tried watching Avatar: The Way of Water at home and despite having an entire media room devoted to good sound, proper lighting well calibrated projector and such it was not

The em dash in particular is being used a lot more thanks to AI. It’s become one of those tells where people start to ask if it’s AI or not.

They're going to spin it as a concession of the lawsuits they're facing, and they're face plenty, regarding the sexual assault of women from drivers. This isn't being done because they want to, users have been asking for

I also think its being used to filter out people that aren't basically a mirror for the interviewers in many instances. I've noticed a huge tightening of the rope around that sort of thing. I can't tell you how many times I&#

High performer is so subjective too. You can be a great unblocker, team lead, and work well within cross cutting areas and with interdepartmental stake holders, have a history of strong technical performance. and yet its nebulous if that me

I know investors largely don’t care but that’s the point, they do t care because they don’t have to face any real consequences of bad decisions in aggregate

It’s fine if someone doesn’t believe that executives should not be held to additional high consequence standard, but you’re boiling down this argument without addressing the central element at play which is viability and wealth gap. Now, yo

That’s not even a good argument for whatever it is you’re trying to say. While you may not like the energy behind OPs statements he’s pretty clear: CEOs and executives in general face almost zero consequences for their decisions that affect
