$1.5B is significant, but the bigger question is whether this actually changes how dominant platforms rank their own services. Is this real accountability for anti-competitive behaviour, or just another cost of doing business for Big Tech?

First thing is first, this is really cool. This feels like the right way to frame LLM-assisted engineering. AI can generate a shocking amount of code, but the actual value is in the review discipline, and tests around it. The browser Kubern

Yeah, I 100% agree with you. I was very reluctant to pick up AI tools for coding for a long time. But now I have, I've gone from thinking the code was the most important bit to realising the thinking behind the code is the actual real

This is a good thesis but it does lean a bit too hard on a vague 80/20 metaphor. It kind of romanticises old-school engineering struggles while downplaying how much of past learning was just wrestling with crappy tooling or poor docs.

The bar for scientific discoveries is generally incredibly high and rightly so. In particle physics for example for a discovery to be confirmed it must be independently verified by a second experiment and both the discovering experiment and

Hurrah for more terrible authoritarian policies out of the US government. Really great for the US, really great for humanity.

Not just America, the rest of the world. There are absolutely people who will get left behind. But, I still do think it remains to be seen if the current AI boom will really sustain itself or fizzle out with only. It is worrying none the le

This is an odd comment. Any scientist or scientific organisation would love to be the first to discover life on another planet. It would catapult that organisation and individuals involved to legendary status with their discoveries being co

The article is good but the title is a bit too slippery a statement in my opinion. The article is saying more evidence is consistent with possible ancient life on Mars. In astrobiology the massive problem is that geology can imitate biology

This has been a massive frustration for me at work. The amount of emails I get that are drafted by co-pilot or other AI models. They are so obvious to me and they are so generic and clearly missing context that any human paying attention wo

This is really great. I especially like the explanation of how claims are built from primary sources, and the tool clearly aims to show cause-and-effect relationships rather than just present conclusions. My only suggestion would be to tone

Yes please! Thank you to whoever created this.

Wow, always suspected this was going on. But, to read it like that in black and white it is really quite shocking. Data harvesting has got completely out of control. If only we had an organisation with the power to stop it by making somethi

The UK government's turn towards authoritarianism on these sorts of things is extremely worrisome! Invest in a VPN to keep yourself safe.

On the fence with this. Social media has been show to be extremely damaging to young developing brains, something needs to be done about that. But, the privacy breaches and governmental surveillance this could potentially entail is very wor

The web from the 90s was so much more fun. I have a vivid memory of a website from some guy dedicated to Liverpool FC and his favourite dinosaurs, you would never get that kind of random fun any more.
