I don't understand why this language exists. It just feels like a promotion vehicle by someone at Google who had enough clout to then get it shoehorned in to Flutter. If they had gone with JavaScript they could've made the switch

Didn't see much of that going on either where FTX was concerned.

Highly intelligent? How?

It makes an absolute mess of Japanese too. Where I work we explicitly suggest people use DeepL instead.

Not a perfect solution but with webrings you could dissuade user tracking while promoting certain style guidelines. Sort of like a Home Ownership Association sans all the bullshit.

I do like Gemini but still question whether the development of a protocol was necessary. Couldn't you replace it with webrings and a crawler to index them?

Who on earth would buy a book written by ChatGPT from Amazon? Unless they thought they weren't.

I keep expecting to see coverage of this in what some would term the "mainstream" press but it's crickets. I refuse to believe that they're waiting for more results either, even the more reputable publications will carry

Whenever this argument comes up I think of what happened to Logan Paul and Justine Sacco. One desecrated what was effectively a burial site and faced few consequences, the other told a dumb joke and had their life destroyed over it. The pow

I would add their moves to put things behind codes of conduct. Not the first time I've seen them deployed purely to stifle criticism but I've never seen it done as overtly as this.

Trade is a big issue in some places. Elderly New Zealanders regularly lose their life savings to these crooks with hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars leaving the country every week. The government is hesitant to do anything

Someone else coined the term and there was a HN post. I cannot find it though.

Look at the products from startups accepted into YC. Few (if any) haven't been done before and the same goes for most open source. Your goal should be to identify something that the others missed.

That's a tired and frankly ignorant excuse. An experienced fraudster will in most cases know full well what happened, and if they don't it won't take them long to put together some theories and test them. The "no reason&

Colleague bought one because he liked having the larger display for reading. Took about a week for a grain of sand to destroy the thing. There's certainly a market for them but Samsung seems intent on actively destroying it with their

Contrarian opinion. I don't think the microblogging concept holds much relevance for the bulk of internet users, especially not in 2023. The best Meta could hope for is to convert a percentage of existing Twitter users. Shallow platitu

I wonder what twisted shit the tories are looking at online. We already know they watch porn in the commons. By eroding encryption we'll soon be seeing what they look at in the privacy of their own homes.
