I agree, we are totally in an exploratory phase. I think its always a little scary when so much money and big companies are involved though.

Yeah, I try to avoid those things as much as possible. Eight years since I was last on an airplane. I'm not sure how that is relevant to my question?

I totally agree that the environmental cost SHOULD be pushed towards the creators, but as long as that doesn't happen, is the moral thing as a consumer to just carry on using it? This is not a rhetorical question. Transporting somethin

How do you reason about the energy consumption/climate impact of feeding the same question to three models? Im not saying there is a clear answer here, would just be interesting to hear your thinking.

I think the version number from year is quite good. I keep forgetting which version is new and old with the current system. Now it will be easy to remember if you are lagging behind one year, or two or whatever.

I use Obsidian these days, I found the switch from Apple Notes pain free. I still think Apple Notes is a great app for almost everyone. Not perfect but really good.

Steve Jobs was quite famously against upgradability since the start. That is not something new for Apple. Honestly I love the current macs, but of course I would like to be able to upgrade them as well. But yeah I also have the feeling that

I think that is a little unfair. I don't know anything about the companies behind Redis and Elastic. But another possibility is that they want to make a good open source product and create some sort of business around it and find it di

Which countries use credit scores? I didn’t know it was a widespread thing, I always thought it was an American deviation. Here in Sweden we don’t have it. When you apply for a new loan the bank can request information of other debts you ha

Yeah, but you also lose all the income from that customer to save a few bucks for sending an extra invoice…? The customers who pay a little late have never been a noticeable cost for us. The ones that contact support for every little thing

I am no expert. But wasn’t part of deepseeks success to use synthetic data, atleast for code and math?

Do you get any traffic? Does it feel worth the extra time compared to just doing local notes?

Do you think simply copying a 70 year old idea would make you a world famous artist if you had more connections in art? (Not that abstract painting really describes what made Pollock famous, action painting is obviously it.)

Haha, I do own a lot of Apple devices, but that was my first reaction as well. The main selling point of the app is to hurt Meta.

Sure. I just got a vibe from this thread that breaking security changes in the browser is a totally unknown phenomenon, but we had changes to behavior from other origin headers, demanding ssl and changes to cookies. Somehow we survived. ;)

I would guess you would use a deprecation message in the console? Like they have done over cookie changes, etc. A normal user would obviously not check the console, but the devs or admins of the site sure might.

Technically…? Does anyone here believe that the EU and Europe is the same thing? Would you find it weird if someone said that a Norwegian company was in Europe?

I think it is a little of both. I’m not American, but as a bystander it seems quite obvious that race is important in the US because of how important slavery has been in your culture (founding fathers, civil war, the history of your politic

What would be Amnesty’s agenda in feeding us propaganda about El Salvador?

by plufz 2y ago
Absolutely. But I still think there is a difference with Bluesky and the other big social medias with full customization of how the feed(s) works, third party servers, custom labelers, etc. To me it seems plausible that they actually want t

By which metrics was Google+ successful? I don’t doubt you, I just never heard that before.

He does not critize you. He criticizes making reviews financed by affiliate links.

Yeah I agree, that is a very valid reason by itself.

I agree that feelings are okay. But also the internet and society is so overloaded with emotional hyperboles. I like with HN that a lot of people make the effort to be bit more diplomatic, less aggressive and more based in facts than most o

I find it very practical with small Bluetooth earbuds, but I agree on the consumption aspect of it. I really don’t like that I can’t change the batteries in my AirPods. I would even be semi-okay with having to hand in them to a technician f

Why do you want a headphone jack? Not a rhetorical question, just genuine interest. Is it about audio quality, avoiding batteries or something else? I would find it so cumbersome to use a cable on a handheld device nowdays. But different th

I have heard the argument that the standard nuclear plant have the inefficiencies of any large building project, like building a big bridge. You never get the optimizations of mass production that you get in a factory that produces tens of

I mean theoretically that makes sense? If you get more value for something it increases the chance of buying it? But I also have no idea if this statement is true.

I feel sort of ehh the same but also the opposite. I feel with both slack and discord that they are a little better than IRC. But that I so easily can see those features being implemented in IRC and I feel really sad history didn’t go in th

Sick of modernist art or like modernist, pomo and contemporary art? I couldn’t imagine being sick of such broad genres. For me it would be like being sick of music from the 1900s.
