A grocery list app is the perfect example of the kind of thing that AI will make obsolete. Why would I pay $5/month for a list app when I can pay Claude $0.30 one time to make it for me? I in fact did just that. I used Claude to revers

The closure was for 10 days full stop. I can't think of a reason to do that in response to an active threat.

Doesn't really pass the sniff test. Why would you need a 10 day closure to deal with a drone incursion? I'm guessing DoD and the FAA were squabbling over a test the military wanted to run, and it didn't go up the chain fast e

It is a bit mind boggling how behind they were considering they invented transformers and were also sitting on the best set of training data in the world, but they've caught up quite a bit. They still lag behind in coding, but I'v

It's not an error, Gemini 3 Pro is just somehow able to complete the benchmark while using way fewer tokens than any other model. Gemini 3 Flash is way cheaper per token, but it also tends to generate a ton of reasoning tokens to get t

Here's a short demo of a pretty good voice to text interface that's available for free: https://twitter.com/lunixbochs/status/1378159234861264896 I had to use it for a while when I was unable to touch a

That's not how extremist online echo chambers tend to play out. See January 6th for an easy example.

You should already know the answers to those questions.

The fact that you and many, many others believe all of these things to be 100% true is exactly the problem. Social media has poisoned your brain.

Epic is the worst EMR system, except for all the others.

He doesn't seem to be stepping down from much of anything. It's an online social media company and he's still going to be in charge of product and technology, so what exactly is this new CEO going to be doing? This just looks

The decision to kill third party clients has cut my usage dramatically. Beyond that, the decision to show every single reply from a Twitter Blue subscriber above any reply from a non-subscriber is one of the worst changes I've seen in

I'll give it a go. A large chunk of your daily behaviors are governed by habits. Habits are made up of cues followed by some sort of routine that you do which results in some sort of reward. If you want to change a habit then you need

They effectively have all of those things already. You don't need a key to enter a house or a car, and they can get anything they want from your bank and email provider with a subpoena. I agree that giving law enforcement a universal k

I could be wrong but I don't remember Apple claiming it was literally impossible for them to open an iPhone. If that were true then Apple wouldn't have had to fight them at all. The government can't force you to do impossible

My plan is to save enough money to at least quasi-retire in my 50s.

>For young people, this is not a political issue. It is an issue of inadequate and out of reach housing. Sounds like a political issue to me. 65% of Americans own a home. Making housing more affordable means taking an axe to their net wo

Good. Pausing student loans was a perfectly sensible policy in 2020. We needed stimulus ASAP and that was an easy button to press for instant stimulus. It's insanity that we've kept this policy through the worst inflationary perio

It's no different than any other form of tax-funded government assistance. The question is if you think "most recent college graduates without wealthy parents" are a population worthy of government assistance.

I don't believe the transition from "set up a commission to recommend best practices" to "mandate regular scans of everyone's phones and report the results to law enforcement" would be viewed as a small extensi

I find myself consistently disappointed when reading blog posts like this. I generally agree with the principles that the EFF advocates for, but it's hard to see this post as anything other than rage-bait. I can't trust it to be a

I don't know how it's possible to read Musk's twitter feed and conclude that Twitter is balanced now. The CEO exclusively interacts with and caters to right-wing accounts.

This is simply not a good forum for that, precisely because it's populated by people whose knowledge of political events is sparse.

We've had tools to solve this problem for a long time. My own bank offers me up to $2M in FDIC insurance through a network of banks. SVB depositors chose not to use these tools. https://www.intrafi.com/solutions/d

Thanks, probably not Brexit related then.

You should strongly reconsider how you choose to interact with people on the Internet. You'll be happier for it.

Is this at least partially Brexit related? For comparison, the US has seen food go up by around 10% over the same time period, which is pretty high but also far from 18%. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/cpi.t02.htm
