They did say was, and did say Twitter, which existed in the past.

Yeah I tend to agree. Dystopian. But, when I open a SWE JD, I get about 800 applications. Stack ranking those maybe 100 seem pretty qualified, and 20 seem really qualified and is all I have time for with 30 min hiring manager screens. As I

Those “early” ai generated avatars created from you sending in a handful of your own photos. Absolutely printed money, hit right as mildly technical people could use the tech + the tech was developed enough, but before normal people could e

It’s getting really bad. New accounts hours old posting walls of AI-generated garbage comments across dozens of topics. Please restrict new posters, minimally, and perhaps add a little friction to new account sign ups.

I moved to Fastmail, set it up with Gmail so I received forwarded emails. Years later there’s still a long tail of senders using my Gmail, but I get the emails forwarded, and only actually log in to Gmail every six months or so.

They wiped all the emails from my 25 year old Hotmail account. Pretty weak. I refuse to use Microsoft products except if forced, and do my best to evangelize this position.

Would love to see the numbers on whether there are more people “online” now than when Netscape was at its peak.

It’s a grift being perpetuated by the folks at the top, who then sweep along in their slipstream folks under them, and so on. The folks who “need to hear this” are helpless to go against and so can’t back down, and the folks who don’t need

I can’t remember if Kagi auto blocks it or if I blocked it completely on my first search, but I haven’t seen Pinterest trash in search results on literal years. <3 Kagi.

This is pretty basic but kinda neat. A good way to browse the fact books like a website. Definitely could use more features but imo superior than flipping through a PDF.

Based on the above article about thousands of AI written PRs littering their code base, you might replace “unfortunately” with “fortunately.”

Well, no, it’s in the US Constitution. So I suppose congress could add a constitutional amendment to remove the prohibition on ex post facto laws. But that’s so unthinkable it might as well be a fantasy. Far from “plainly wrong,” which seem

Yes, but the courts would dismiss the case. If not the appeals court would. If not the Supreme Court would.

Presidential pardon immunity is unreversable. There could potentially be a constitutional amendment on this, which is a super high bar, but even then the prohibition on ex post facto laws would only affect pardons going forward. It will be

The whole account is an LLM slop account. To what end I don’t know, but it has been happening more and more.

Lots of folks vote against better healthcare. Perhaps they “deserve” better healthcare regardless as they’re human, but perhaps they deserve the outcomes they specifically voted for. Otherwise it feels a little paternalistic.

No problem! I would absolutely help again. This is an important cause that is near to my heart. Speaking for the HN community: we are always happy to help!
