That code (penal code 632) has a carve out for when there is a “reasonable expectation” of the location being in public so outside of private spaces it doesn’t apply. The internet is littered with a*holes with cameras testing that carve out

I don’t know about people’s anecdata but this data does not support the claim it makes. Skills aren’t interchangeable and there is no universal hiring pool called “IT” under which you can hire anyone with an engineering degree and so an H1B

I mean they’re not cartoon villains. This message is just not getting through to leadership from the bubble and all these hardware sales is an opening for alternative business plans, especially if Apple offers a decent alternative.

Honestly, I’m an avid user of Ray-Ban metas and I agree that if Zuck doesn’t want to re-hash his old original sin (distracting algorithmic feeds) into this new form factor, he would block out any feeds and notifications from the glasses whe

I think the idea here is a very different mode of programming. Less prompting, waiting, seeing results, prompting again (where typing is not the bottleneck) But more having a conversation with a really fast coding agent. That should feel

Or more likely it’ll look like the e-commerce adoption plots with a giant pop in the late 90s and then a 20 year slog of consistent growth [1] Pretty much exactly what the S-curve looks like. [1]: https://www.marketplacepulse.com

Wait, ARE “personal packages” exempt? Doesn’t say that in the press release. If I buy a Swiss watch (<$800) I’ll have to use DHL or UPS (though AFAIK, they also use national post in places) so I’m SOL. But if my Swiss friend mails me a w

I think any article that cites assisted suicide statistics without breaking it down by Track 1 vs Track 2, should not be taken seriously. The author cites 5% as the “number too high” but as someone who’s had a family member who’s been throu

Now the question is how the efficient market hypothesis plays out here in the long term. Counterexamples like Costco exist and are doing extremely well, when and how do their asset prices reflect this?

I think the announcement was mostly a ploy to get OpenAI access to the White House and not much else (especially because Musk was already in there). But they are clearly on their way to build 20 data centers[1]. OpenAI raising $500B over 1
