There is a reason that many of the rights enumerated in the Constitution, at some level, restrict the government (originally just the federal government, not even the states) and not private enterprises. The go-to example is recording. Watc

PHI collected by private entities that receive no state or federal funding whatsoever is still PHI and has the same PHI protections as data collected by the government directly. "Public information" doesn't play any role here

You never saw that Reddit thread where the guy who barely got his GED insisted he was a "federal officer," did you?

I can't speak to UK airports but TSA policy is that any medication needs to be in the original container, including prescription medication. So if you have any unmarked pills they'll toss them if they find them, same with multiple

"Someone threw this away once" is not the same as "banned at security."

If you can find a way to utilize the baggage claim services without paying someone at some point I'd love to hear it. Just because you're not handing someone your card as you walk up to it doesn't mean you're not paying

Rather than charge everyone £7 or more for a drop off, wouldn't it make more sense to charge the people abusing it an absurd amount? I'd much rather see a £25 fee after 90 seconds and an additional £125 fee after 5 minutes than £7

It's the same principle as walking on snow in normal shoes vs. snow shoes. Taking off is normal shoes, a lot of pressure concentrated at the very first part of the runway. Landing is snow shoes because it's distributed across more

Typical blogspam clickbait of "I knew what LLMs were 2 years, but maybe didn't know the name for them, so we'll call that vibecoding."

My own mental model of swarm is "k8s but easier" - is that wrong?

One thing I didn't truly appreciate until my wife and I consolidated our spending and had children - having nearly every expense flow through a credit card puts total spending into perspective without having to look through bank statem

I'm glad I'm not the only one that occasionally forgets a PIN then just uses that as an excuse not to use that particular card for a few years.

Maybe I just don't use it enough but I can really only remember one time in the last ~15 years that I've tried to use my Discover card and been told they don't take Discover. I wonder if there's a geographical component,

They might, and it's good they do, but they're not legally required to in quite the same way that they are with credit cards. If someone pulls $10k out of your BofA account, they're completely within their rights to do basica

I think your right the statement in and of itself doesn't imply any morality. My issue was with these two sentences in close proximity: > 200 years ago slavery was more extended and accepted than today...Morality changes, what is ri

by pc86 9mo ago
By definition if you're using the word "considered" you're making some claim that slavery is objectively bad. You can't simultaneously say that morality changes, that what is right and wrong changes, and then say &q

Does traveling through time to kill Hitler constitute murder though? If you kill him in 1943 I think most people would say it's not, the crimes that already been committed that make his death justifiable. What's the difference if

by pc86 9mo ago
This isn't arguing about whether or not murder is wrong, it's arguing about whether or not a particular act constitutes murder. Two people who vehemently agree murder is wrong, and who both view it as an inviolable moral absolute,

"Slavery was right 200 years ago and is only wrong today because we've decided it's wrong" is a pretty bold stance to take.

As if I needed another reason not to hire people coming from Epic. For a company as financially focused as Epic it's surprising to me they'll pay the offshored devs for simply submitting code even if it doesn't work and needs

They're not ignoring performance, they're ignoring experience on old machines or hardware outside of top tier. Part of it is laziness for sure but part of it is, I believe, intentional to push the refresh cycle as short as possibl

Bait and switch is something completely different. If you started buying Evernote 10 or 15 years ago, and use it a lot, then Evernote gets acquired and the terms change, that's shitty but is not remotely a "bait and switch."

Well any company could legally do that at any point so I'm not sure how this is any different.

It is the imposition onto other people that makes it antisocial. The "I don't care or won't consider how this impacts other people, I am going to do whatever I want or whatever is easiest for me. If it bothers, upsets, or imp

3) "I don't like this" / "I don't wanna" is not really an acceptable reason to be an antisocial ass.

Thank you for helping me clarify something. Your last example, jerking off in public, is not only a crime (as it should be) but is clearly antisocial behavior. That helped me realize that's what all the other shit is too, no pun intend

What is the difference between "novel" and "novel to someone who hasn't consumed the entire corpus of training data, which is several orders of magnitude greater than any human being could consume?"
