In this case consent, should it be possible, would also be a questionable approach. See: the vampire problem. The trouble is, in this situation, how could you possibly make an informed choice? For, after all, you cannot know what it i

The platinum rule is generally better. See proc0's reply below. The golden rule is...somewhat narcissistic.

They don't even question that it is sinking. They take that as granted -- sinking 1-2mm according to "sattelite" data. Then they spend the study demonstrating why this is attributable to the weight of the buildings they estim

It seems pretty remarkable to me that despite how relevant and ubiquitous AI is becoming (e.g. generative search is coming to Google soon, and from their latest I/O conf it's clearly a big part of nearly all other G products), Hac

I learned the hard way that smaller vendors may have no clue what customer service is and in many cases will not stand by their own return policies -- the one I dealt with would not even let me return the item on my own dime suggesting that

I highly prefer http://thecodelesscode.com to this, but this was a nice try. By the way, when writing a koan, it would be wise to choose between a parable and a riddle. These seem to be trying to be both (short like a riddle, bu

The title makes it seem like LoZ changed something outside of itself, when the article is actually just talking about how LoZ has changed over time.

Also, Cloudflare is one of the easier free gateways to set up for your domain. Lots of people are using that (and Cloudflare apps) and they probably enable these protections without giving it a second thought.

I had the exact same issue for months, and I just checked and it is gone (on Firefox), which has to have happened in the last day, without me having changed a single thing on my end. I'm certain it's because you made some noise,

To add to this, using ChatGPT feels great in the moment, because it seems to work so well. For example, asking it for an itinerary while traveling gives you something that looks great. However, once you actually start using it and see t

That's why I said in my opinion . Which is to say, in my opinion the opportunity YC presents is more compelling for non-FAANG founders. That doesn't necessarily mean anything for what the demographics actually end up being. I&#x2

Yes, removing CarPlay is not a great move, and is rightfully being bashed in this thread -- but these kinds of OEM integrations are far beyond a smartphone subsitute, especially given what's coming down the pipe for auto. As you allude

You might be able to find some of those, but you probably don't want to work with incubators or accelerators that consider anybody -- let alone such a large absolute number of people as "ex-FAANG" -- a "shoo-in". Ju

It depends on what your goals are and what your business needs. I would recommend reaching out to your local angel investors —- even if you don’t plan to fundraise with them, they usually have an avenue for you to get in touch directly with

YC will absolutely coddle you if you manage to become one of their “darling” startups, just like any other incubator or VC firm. That’s the type of thing that you have to earn, and if you earn it you don’t need it.

YC used to be for people who investors wouldn’t normally take a chance on…and imo, it still is. If you have a FAANG attached to your name with multiple years of experience, you can probably find better deals elsewhere. YC has done a relativ

Looks like GPT is the new 'blockchain', except it's the unwashed masses calling for it rather than VCs (I suppose the latter have learned some hard lessons recently). Who am I kidding, VCs will be VCs.

Recently I paid to book better seats on an Air France flight and since the website was a hot mess (specifically the payment portal) I tried various VPNs to try and get through. To my surprise, prices were significantly different (about ~20%
