Browser development is done by Mozilla Corporation which is a for-profit entity. It's illegal to donate to it. This is by design of the US tax code. You can donate to Mozilla Foundation (parent entity of Mozilla Corporation), which i

The Peter Thiel's part about the current situation not working for young people is right on the money. I am of the age where my kids (and those of my friends) are graduating from college. Every single one of them is having trouble fi

I am confused. What makes it not scannable? It's just a Word doc exported to PDF.

Tried it, but it says it can't extract text from PDF resume.

You are right. This is the current situation. Plus the downside is that your laptop heats up like a furnace if you use the local LLM a lot.

I can't wait until someone does this, then autofills 50k rows down, then gets a $50k bill for all the tokens. Reminds me of when our CIO insisted on moving to the cloud (back when AWS was just getting started) and then was super pissed

I've also lived through that era and used OS/2 extensively. Display drivers were always the weak point of the system. At one point, after a very prolonged struggle, I managed to get 800x600 resolution working (standard was 640x48

Elon's predictions are usually very late, but they do happen. Falcon 9 landings, self driving vehicles, etc... Later than predicted, but they happened.

That is both technically and practically not "the truth". In fact, it's diametrically opposite of the truth. There is a plan. The only reason for Hamas to not accept it is because they want to continue the war and prolong s

I asked why Hamas won't accept it. You immediately divert and avoid answering.

What is amazing is your ability to avoid the question.

Netanyahu signed on. I am asking why Hamas won't accept it.

The Twitter files happened before Elon. He stopped it once he got in. And the implication of repercussions were for employees that were in charge of removing content. Not for the head honchos.

It was before Elon.

Threaten. Because of the implication.

That was certainly the case with Twitter. It came out during the congressional hearings. FBI had a direct line to the decision makers.

Just rented a 2 bedroom on the Upper West Side. The rent is $4600 a month. And these bedrooms are tiny. Not everyone can "simply move to" Upper West Side.

That is their choice. Anna's archive is unilaterally making the decision for everyone.

I never heard of the site. But looking at it now, I can't see how it's anything else other than piracy. I looked up one of my favorite authors ( https://annas-archive.org/search?q=scott+sigler ) and you can downlo

Ah, OK. Wrong state - similar reservoir. There is a guy who walks his poodle at the same time as I walk. We've exchanged head nods for years.

Windows Phone had this very feature back in the day. You just connected the phone to the PC via USB, and magically, you had a desktop environment.

by starik36 1y ago
My walk is also around a reservoir, also 4-5 times a week and the length of the walk around it is also 1 hour. Are you the guy that walks the poodle?

> where that money went People do things with the best of intentions. Sometimes it doesn't work. How you went from there to Netanyahu supports the very entity he spent his entire life fighting - that's quite a reach even for
