It's already impossible to stop someone from recording if they are really determined. Pen cameras, button cameras and all sorts of miniature devices exist and can be snuck through very easily. You enforce the restriction by prosecuting

Spoof the user agent. I'd bet the vast majority of "only works on XYZ browser" websites will still work.

You must be living in a different universe if you think ICs aren't enamored by AI. Every developer I know basically can't operate now without Claude Code (or equivalent).

I wish I could be this optimistic. The reality is that as we speak the average consumer doesn't have access to cheap electricity or affordable inference hardware or powerful models that work out of the box on existing computers. The on

I feel like sending phishing emails for penis enlargement pills would take down half the current administration.

Legal or illegal doesn't really matter. If the regime wants to come for you they will.

Iran has done nothing to harm the average American. Who is the enemy, really?

A couple of DOGE teenagers were able to casually walk in and steal the entire country's social security and healthcare data (and probably more), and we were cheering them on. There is still no accountability, and it has probably alread

I'd be concerned if any of the parties involved were halfway competent. This is a grift for taxpayer dollars, nothing more.

Palantir is a glorified IT consulting company. You tell them "I want a system to manage patient records" and they will dispatch a team of engineers fresh out of college to build it for you while charging top dollar. They are able

And it keeps getting removed. That should tell you more about the bias here.

The app isn’t shutting down today, so they may have decided that the write up is still useful.

It may very well be the future, but in the present OpenAI has to make money.

Happy to see it, but if a fine is the only consequence then they’re going to go back to doing the exact same thing tomorrow.

How are they going to claw back the market from Anthropic though?

by paxys 7mo ago
For years now people have been saying Anthropic is falling behind because they don't have an image or video generation model. Turns out it was the right decision all along.

Senior engineers/leaders getting tired of Microsoft's shit and leaving.

Took a full 8 years for a Microsoft acquisition to go to shit, which is probably a record. Kudos to the Github team for holding out this long.

So then...don't talk about it? Do your job. Go home. Spend time with family. Find some non-tech hobbies. The solution isn't to change the world but to break your social media addiction (and yes, HN/Linkedin/X are include

There is a legally required 60 day notice period, and plenty of states have their own requirements on top. New Jersey for example explicitly requires 1 week of severance for every year worked. Yes tech companies are often more generous, but

It is incredibly easy now to get an idea to the prototype stage, but making it production-ready still needs boring old software engineering skills. I know countless people who followed the "I'll vibe code my own business" tre

> The only plan is be adaptable And that's exactly what the question was. You seem to consider yourself in the "smart people" ranks, so what's your big plan for adaptability?

Serious question, but not entirely related to the topic - how are “smart” people in the US preparing for the next 20-30 years? - Assume everything will be fine and America will remain a global economic superpower. - Plan an exit to a more s

Funny to see how creatively tech marketing teams are spinning their push for a permanent underclass in America. No employment contracts. No benefits. No protections. Unpredictable wages. But hey, it's great because in this new model pe

Why do you think a hedge fund can't hire a couple of IT guys? Most of the larger ones have technical operations that would put big tech to shame.

The problem with all these "AI box" startups is that the product is too expensive for hobbyists, and companies that need to run workloads at scale can always build their own servers and racks and save on the markup (which is subst

Title says "helps" but the summary says "it doesn’t effectively treat anxiety, depression, or PTSD". Big difference between the two IMO. Plenty of people use cannabis to alleviate symptoms. I don't think they expe
