Well sure, I never said they were equivalent in all respects. Just that you can have good and bad versions of both. For sure the failure modes are different. I challenge the idea that there is no skill test for PMs, though - take a PM inter

There are bad PMs and good PMs, and bad engineers and good engineers. If you treat an entire profession with disdain, don’t be surprised if you get treated like that too.

Not sure why you're being downvoted – this is a perfectly interesting fact. Presumably the words "chit" and "pat" don't literally mean "heads" and "tails", though, even if they correspond to

The goal is to increase revenue, and one way to do that is to make the experience worse for people blocking ads. Some, like you, will keep finding new ways to bypass them. Others will give up and allow the ads, or pay for ad-free. They don’

Product teams analyse call summaries at scale to guide the roadmap to reduce future calls. It’s not just about case management.

OK yes I meant no reasonable people. I’m not sure what your point is. That Americans deserve to “find out” terrible things because of their government, but other countries don’t? I was just trying to agree with you that the situations are t

The comment above says “Friendly reminder to please not confuse the Trump administration with all U.S. citizens.” Nobody is saying he doesn’t officially represent the USA. It’s about not assuming ALL Americans agree with what the administra

by tene80i 1y ago
But that’s exactly the point - nobody thinks of the citizens of those countries as being unified behind or synonymous with whoever is in charge.

by tene80i 1y ago
You ought to care more then, wouldn’t you say? An American has just pleaded with you not to have this attitude and you’ve thrown it back in their face. Hardly a mature attitude or an open mind.

They do, but with limited powers. It’s not exactly the same as US states and the federal government, but you can think of them as regional governments or levels of government in that sort of way. The Scottish Parliament can pass some types

I believe the point being made is that you are saying England when it is the entire UK under discussion. You are missing out three of the four nations of the U.K.

Well aren’t you a treat! The question was what was their logic, how could they possibly believe these inconsistent things, so I’m offering what their logic might be. Not mine. But even if it was what I think, your response is rude and thoug

Probably something like: Privacy is valuable, so corporations shouldn't be freely able to trade your data for advertising purposes. But CSAM leads to unimaginable harms carried out on vulnerable people, and so is worth giving up some p

Depends, but for traditional publishing the royalty percentage is exactly the same because it's the publisher paying a % of the sale price. Amazon might discount more heavily (but then so do other large retailers). But they also provid

Sure, but you can buy audiobooks from elsewhere. It’s up to you.

by tene80i 1y ago
Is this still possible? I’d love to move some of my audiobooks to an offline device but I struggled to find a way to do this.

by tene80i 1y ago
Audible, but your library might have them too. Don't use torrents. That's cheap. Pay authors, just like you expect to be paid for your work.

There will always be reasons to keep asking about / trying out different things, but if your setup works it’s premature optimisation. Good enough is good enough. Go do whatever it is you want to actually do.

Yes. People should follow the law as a general rule, and particularly when operating a giant metal object that can kill. Software should do the same. Moreover, if it cannot, or chooses not to, why should we trust it to drive at all? What ot

Eh? I never said I could detect the machine. Only that I would prefer it wasn’t used. I would also prefer not to read a ghostwritten book, even if I would never know it was ghostwritten. The possibility of never knowing something doesn’t me

It’s an interesting project for assessing the capabilities of current AI models. I would never read it, because I’m not interested in creative work produced even in part by a computer model, when there is so much out there that is top-to-bo

Sample of one, but I’m interested. I used to use a real camera and now very rarely do. But I also often find the iPhone blurring very fake and I’ve never understood why. I assumed it was just impossible to do any better, given the resources

It’s not just politics. It’s also that Musk is a colossal prick and plenty of people don’t want anything to do with him or his brand(s).

The product management team, or whoever was pushing for the project in the first place, should have this data, and will often be very happy to share. They might not themselves know 100%, but they should have some estimate of benefits. It&#x

You’re confusing social interactions with abstract interpretive exercises. In social life, what someone presents to another person, and how successfully they do it, matters. Not just intention. In this case, you’re defending just sitting

Do you think most people know how to do that, or even what it means? The market is larger than just software engineers.

Well, kinda. But these aren’t exactly symmetrical things. One of them displays an interest in the other person, and the other doesn’t. One of them provides a way for the conversation to continue, and the other doesn’t. It’s not the case tha

The theory is that it’s because Tesla is positioned to move into AI, energy and robotics. It’s not capped at the value of a car company. But I don’t know how grounded in reality it is that they can make the transition, or how well estimated
