A lot of this is about admins, but I also find it weird when university lecturers embrace LLMs, which are fundamentally opposed to the principles of academia as I understand it.

I can heartily recommend going into your Google settings and disabling the global "smart features" option. It removes a huge amount of crap all at once. For GMail, go to Settings -> General ( https://mail.google.com&#

GMail users sometimes don't see my messages because they get sent to spam. (These are just normal person-to-person emails.) Google used to have pretty good spam detection but now they seem to have cranked the dial over to err on the si

The main thing that makes me think about getting a smartphone is navigation. But I never lost the skill of "looking up/writing down directions before you go" so it's not too bad. (My phone is technically Android, but rea

Ah, I have a cell phone, not a smartphone. (Didn't notice that the parent comment referred to both.)

Haha, nice. One correction: The link in "To be honest, I'm not even sure if I understand it, but it's on my GitHub." goes to the wrong file (01 instead of 00).

I don't have one either. No plans to get one, even with this.

Come off it. People legitimately have limited drive space.

Because it's huge and people were counting on having that disk space.

If it asked you 10 times, that's 10 chances for you to mis-click. "Opt-in" is a lie when the user is harassed or tricked into "accepting".

"Nothing that Altman could say justifies violence against him." Nothing , really? I think people are aware that speech can be an act, and that some violent acts must be resisted with reciprocal violence. (That's why we have

What a goofy comment. The article you're commenting on is about people who obviously would have wanted this disabled, but didn't have it disabled, presumably because they didn't know about this issue.
