Doctors have no clue how the brain works, so any medicine they offer that effects the brain is useless at best and dangerous at worst. The only helpful psych drugs are the ones they won’t give you - Xanax, Adderall. If something is addictiv

Yeah, you can’t just give away copyrighted books for free, lol.

There are minimally moderated Reddit subs where it works beautifully

People are fine reading stuff they disagree with, it’s fun that way. They just downvote if they disagree. It’s not fun sitting around in a moderated hugbox where everyone is saying the same thing

Moderation just leads to censorship. Upvote / downvotes are good enough on their own, we don’t need someone babysitting us.

I don’t get it, what changed in between 2021 and now? Back then we were told that electric cars were faster, cheaper to operate, quieter, and better for the environment. Isn’t all that still true today? Why are they losing value then?

Who cares? People are only upvoting this because it’s written in Rust. The actual tool seems useless

Why is a public constructor with a string an anti pattern? 99% of the use case is parsing a string, and 99% of the users are going to try using the constructor first.

Moderation kills discussion. Hacker News and 4chan are lightly moderated and that’s why they’ve survived for a decade plus.

What is a practical example of how this is useful?

Everything you post online is used to train an AI that lines someone else’s pockets.

You’re saying you don’t believe in freedom of speech.

Pretty funny that Apple engineers use Homebrew too.

by symlinkk 3y ago
Isn’t it funny that all the “worthless” content out there on the internet is actually changing the world. Like how 4chan was mocked as being a cesspit for losers, but now everyone knows memes like Pepe the frog and Wojack from there. And li

In the video he was having a chat conversation with Devin the whole time, it’s not like Devin did this completely on its own.

It sounds like you shouldn’t need to meet with him at all.

Was sugar considered to be heavily studied too?

That’s nice. I still want a loud, manual, fun gas car. But I guess if you just want an appliance an electric car will do just fine.

Okay but counterpoint: that looks beautiful.

Break down that 90 billion by iPhone vs Watch / iPad / Mac. I guarantee 99% is coming from iPhone. Their other stores haven’t taken off.

by symlinkk 3y ago
Oh why haven’t Apple Watch apps taken off then? Or what about the macOS App Store, why is that dead?

by symlinkk 3y ago
Not everything is going to be a repeat of the iPhone, lol.

I still can’t believe there is a huge battery attached to it that you have to keep in your pocket. How awkward is that? Meta’s headsets are totally wireless.

We’ve had consumer VR headsets on the market for 8 years now (Oculus Rift CV1). Why would apps suddenly start appearing now, what makes Apple so different?

It’s so funny how strong a hold lawyers have on their profession compared to software engineers. I mean they literally outlawed the competition. Why can’t we do that? “Unfortunately, I cannot write code due to ethical and liability concerns

Just tell that verbatim to ChatGPT and it will catch it for you.

by symlinkk 3y ago
Nice that should make it much easier for ChatGPT to access that information and make it so that humans aren’t needed at all!

No. I can close my eyes and pick anything in Costco and it will be high quality for the money.

That would slow down hiring.

Sounds like a win for Twitch - you were costing them money and not giving anything back
