The year is 2032. One of the big tech giants has introduced Employ AI, the premiere AI tool for combating fraud and helping recruiters sift through thousands of job applications. It is now used in over 70% of HR departments, for nearly all

Canada doesn't have a direct, systematic way of blocking these transactions in the same way how other western countries are building up their systems. Your example was only made possible after the invocation of the Emergencies Act, whi

I don't know why you're interpreting my post like it's written in an accusatory or aggressive way. Seriously, multiple people have done this in response to me and I don't know why. I never speculated on the validity of a

Sorry, but due to having never experienced this, I don't get the importance of asking these questions. The base meaning of your comment is clear to me, but not the part about how this is hacking or indicative of a paradigm shift in you

I'm not asking why these different groups come together, it's not very difficult to understand. The confusing part for me is deciphering which comments and arguments come from which school of thought. That seems to be nearly imp

Can you explain how exactly that process happens? The article is still really vague about it, as are most people here. Is it about forcing yourself to hyperventilate? Or forcing your breathing to be at a certain rhythm, regardless of what t

Access to a fully uncensored internet seems to be in decline nowadays, especially in the Western countries. I also saw a comment about this article being blocked in Spain. I'm just glad that my country is still holding out with no cent

That's not 'blocked'. That's just blocked, no quotation marks needed. Most countries' blocking attempts can be bypassed via VPNs, but that doesn't make the frameworks that let this happen any less threatening.

It's nothing new. In any posts like these, people love being snarky at researchers who are studying something that's 'basic' in their minds. They don't think that even the most foundational and obvious (to them) thi

This is a really strange comment section. The average person sharing their experiences seems very unlike the average HN user. I feel like I can barely relate to those people, and understanding what they're saying is nigh impossible. Th

It's mind-boggling and insane how hostile YT became to multilingualism. You'd think that out of the hundreds of people involved in this project, at least one would've been bilingual and experienced this hostility firsthand. I

Some VPNs kind of offer that. I know at least one that sells physical redeemable cards you can buy - maybe physically in some countries, but in mine it's only available on Amazon. Even that option should be safe for keeping your identi
