Maybe it would be adding too much complexity, but a "mark as duplicate" button could be really helpful to have more meaningful "new queue". For every major topic that is already discussed on the front page, there are a h

I would say that https://getmagicnow.com/ could also be considered as a kind of paid natural language search engine (limited to paid product or services).

Not necessarily a block, but I tend to procrastinate by "yak shaving" when I have something boring to do. If you are really blocked in front of your editor, it is likely you are opening your editor too early, or trying to solve so

It might be related to French Law : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hate_speech_laws_in_France Google, like any other global company, has to take into account local laws.

I would say this is not about terrorism per se , but rather that, as you mentioned, we rely on an ever more complex and fragile infrastructure. In medieval time, the only network you could seriously sabotage was probably water, by poisonin

I agree on 90% of your post and detailed description. However, on the conclusion, I am fairly convinced that the process is necessary but not enough to produce reliable system. I would say the most important parameter is "People".

No need of a taxi license, "car rental with Chauffeur" is legal, and has existed for ages. The only difference with a taxi is that you are supposed to book them in advance, and you can't just hail them. (And their might be so

Uber is legal in France, UberPop, in its current implementation, is not.

This is unrelated, but in the first screenshot, how do you get a terminal windows inside vim ? ( git in the top right). I guess it is a neovim feature.

Just to be clear, because it is not mentioned in the article, this is about UberPop. Uber is legal with some caveats.

That makes a lot of sense. However at some point, I expect some kind of approval body that would vet an autonomous car comm, similar to GSM for example. This is also a situation where you don't want bad actors emitting in the wrong fre

Which raises the question why isn't there a standard protocol so that two near-autonomous car could broadcast and/or negotiate their next move ?

You have to take into account, that a trade deal is something your enter voluntarily between partners/allies in the hope it will be a win-win for both sides. If there is an information asymmetry, you don't negotiate as equal, but

I would say it depends of the context. Negotiating a ceasefire in Ukraine and making sure the other party is not only trying to buy time sounds OK in my book. On the other trying to get the upper hand in a trade treaty is not so great. And

Five hundred years ago, Christianity was as bad (see reformation, st bartholomew's day massacre). Things are much better now. Has "Christianity" changed that much ? The core of the faith is still the same. In my opinion, what
