Not OP, but yes. For personal use, you don't have enough traffic to establish reputation, so you get constantly blocked regardless of DKIM/DMARC/SPF/rDNS. Receiving mail is reliable though, so you can do that yourself an

The media is terrible about reporting on "maximum sentences". The federal sentencing guidelines are super complicated and lazy journalists usually just add all the maximum numbers up and write these egregious numbers. In reality,

Godot has a known issue where the built in deserialization can lead to arbitrary code execution. E.g. a save file could be modified to execute any script when it's deserialized.

The depreciation schedule doesn't affect long term profitability. It just shifts the profits/loss in time. It's a tool to make it appear like you paid for something while it's generating revenue. Any company would look r

Will people use ChatGPT if it's stuffed full of ads? It seems like the belief that ads are turn-key is useful to their valuation, but if ads actually bomb, then they will take a huge hit.

I think it makes the most sense this way, but I've seen it accounted for in other ways. E.g. if free users produce usage data that's valuable for R&D, then they could allocate a portion of the costs there. Also, if the costs a

It's true, but since this is a Firefox project, it is relevant since rust was largely developed for years specifically for (re)writing exactly this kind of code in Firefox.

I don't think there is anything factually wrong with this criticism, but it largely rehashes caveats that are already well explored in the original paper, which goes through unusual lengths to clearly explain many ways the study is fla

Instead of a $100k lump sum by the first employer, what about $10k each year by the current employer? Or even $2.5k each quarter? That way there is no particular incentive to poach a "paid-off" H1B employee, and the company doesn&

The results are aggregated and not sent to investors. There is no incentive to lie, and this survey is voluntary, so if you respond at all, it's out of some civic duty.

I believe it's the second case. Otherwise far over 100% of firms "adopted" AI by now, which doesn't make sense unless they keep un-adopting and re-adopting. The question from BTOS is > Between MMM DD – MMM DD, did thi

It doesn't make sense to amortize model training over multiple years since they train multiple models per year (e.g. Claude 3.5, 3.7, and 4 were released within 12 months). Or you can, but then you have to overlap amortization schedule

Congress probably isn't functional enough to pull it off, but they could pass a regressive fuel tax and then make up for it with adjustments to income tax. E.g. adjust progressive tax brackets or the EITC.

I have a similar philosophy for low priority tickets. Some people say it's not worth filing a low priority ticket since we can't even do the medium priority ones. I think it's still valuable since (1) it let's you write

I haven't used Claude Code a lot, but I was using about $2-$5/hour, but it varied a lot. If I used it 6 hours/day and worked a normal 21 workday month (126 hours), then I would rack up $250-$630/month in API costs. I thi

So the "multiply by 12" thing is a slight corruption of ARR, which should be based on recurring revenue (i.e. subscriptions). Subscriptions are harder to game by e.g. channel-stuffing and should be much more stable than non-recurr
