What I'd love to see is regulation forcing companies to provide reasonably priced ad-free options. There should be a right to opt out of ads.

Or just choose one of the vendors that don't collect data? They did list three.

This is an odd ranking for "worst types of data collected." Personally, I'd be FAR FAR FAR more upset about my driving data being sent to insurance companies that I am about my voice recognition data being used to improve the

What does the GPL have to do with profit maximization?

1. If the weights somehow are obtained by a foreign power, you can't do anything, just like every other technology ever. 2. If it turns into a malicious agent you just hit the "off switch", or, more likely just stop the softw

I'd say the public needs to develop some rational impulse, it already has plenty of skepitism to the point where people no longer trust science the methodology. Instead, they genuinely believe there is some alternative to finding the t

I think "non-echo chamber content" is only valuable as long as all of it is similarly high quality. In my opinion, reading diverse but low quality content (e.g. filled with misinformation, a lack of concrete information, and a lac

With enough time it seems a reasonable assertion, but the key part is how much time. It feels like he thinks "any day now" where I think it'll be much longer. This all of course assumes that "the remaining problems"

Continuous monitoring will always be better than manual checks. Also this is not an LLM and uses less power than your email software.

No, we don't use GOFAI, we call it machine learning. LLMs are a subset of the field, and if you want to refer to them just use the term LLM. We don't need new terms when we already have easy to use precise language. Marketing will

Yeah, I can't see how it's great for Tesla other than I guess extra revenue from charging. But the infrastructure already is somewhat constrained, so yes there will be more lines now at superchargers. On the other hand, I'm h

There is a difference between having manufacturing capabilities and trade tariffs. You can in fact build your own chips AND trade with other countries for the same items at the same time.

That's great to hear. I hope other countries, like Canada and the EU, also do this. I think it's important for all major nations to have this sort of critical capability in house. Covid showed this well, despite being allies, coun

In many tech companies there is a skill matrix and competency attached to jobs, and these are tied to compensation bands. Often these skill matrices are given to employees too. When someone complains that they are not being paid fairly or t

Your salary negotiation point speaks more to a call for open salary data, which many people have been arguing for. You're missing a lot with your second point though. If a company has excellent salary data and can put in you a band, th

I think some basic math knowledge would help more, if every company paid at the 95th percentile then it wouldn't be the 95th percentile, it would in fact be the average. But no, these distributions are not flat like that, there is a la

No, this is not new. There are many many many companies selling compensation metrics. This is also not salary fixing. These companies typically do not offer recommendations. It's up to each individual company to decide how to structure

No, you don't set salary bands based on race or sex. That sounds like it would be illegal. The way that bias creeps in is not from data gathering and setting salary ranges, it's from managers bias when they choose from the ranges

Oh yeah, I've improved over time for sure. Right now I need those extra two hours, when I was younger I'd roll around for 4-5h at times. In high school I routinely slept through my morning classes (in class), and in university I j

ISPs cooperate with law enforcement and often happily give out the information for people doing illegal things on their networks. I realize that operators of Tor exit nodes likely can't help track people on the Tor exit nodes, but I do

How does the shipping support work? Is it easy to add plugins for different shipping companies?

Nah. As a night owl myself it’s simply that I have trouble falling asleep due to an overactive mind. Add two hours or more of rolling around and instead of getting up at 7 I’m getting up at 9. And before someone chimes in with sleep advice,

If they have license to misrepresent and abuse a term, users of that term absolutely have license to correct them. Being ignorant does not somehow put you above criticism or correction.

Subscriptions are a pain for sure, but I think a big reason for that is that they are always something like $10-20 a month. For something that people might only use occasionally that's just too much. If they were instead maybe $20 a ye

Yes, it can both help you write it but also, if you start with the documentation, e.g. the comment describing what function does, AI becomes orders of magnitude better and actually helping write the function, so it actually forces develop

I think it really depends on the users. The same people who would just paste stackoverflow code until it seems to work and call it a day will abuse LLMs. However, those of us who like to know everything about the code we write will likely r

Generative AI has a very specific meaning, it's not something that's "up for debate." That the general public has taken a trade term and abused it is not a reason to abandon the actual meaning among practitioners. Genera

If the client talks to service A, which talks to AGPL service B, I assume that would count as having to "prominently offer the source code for service B". No? If that's true, then it becomes a real pain to track all the place

I'm not sure what skeletons you think are being pulled out of the closet. I do the same as the OP, if there is an option to pay I do that, but I will always ad block. I feel for you if you can't make money without ads, but I'
