Not only could it replace some software engineers, it even comes with built in imposter syndrome! It's kind of worrying how easy it is to get it to do things it claims it can't do - if that's the failsafe to prevent an ai lik

There seem to be a few comments talking about how it's just thumbnails stored or how any cloud based system has to send some media to the cloud - fundamentally I think we need to make sure we're not missing the bigger picture here

That is a wildly complicated process - but it sounds like the advice was to incorporate somewhere else where it's easier instead? I guess that's fine with the common market? Why not just do that instead of going through all this h

The problem with all the proposals I've seen in those articles about earnings is that basically all of them are guaranteed to get someone even more interested in what's behind the curtain. A strange fellowship keeping the populati

In what universe is cars being programmed to kill one of two likely outcomes? The much much much more likely anti-pedestrian dystopia is to extend our current system a bit. Keep the walk signs and red lights. Juice up red light cameras with

Of all the platforms today, linkedin might be the closest to that. Maybe that's part of why it's become so garbage - in filling a niche as a people directory its accidentally providing a half baked solution to the gap that used to

At the start? No, why would they? Raising money is usually something that makes sense after you build your mvp and all. If you really want an llc that's maybe $100 bucks. Otherwise cloud compute and stuff are near free at those scales

How are those the most successful companies in corporate history? By what metric? Apple took dilutive investment, as did Amazon, as did Google and famously Intel did also. Even the formation of general electric involved financing from jp m

It certainly makes assumptions about pronunciations that mean for a lot of people it will sound different. "Meik" vs "maik" for a replacement for make for example threw me off for a bit (like, meek? Meyek? What does that

Issue is a euphemism for problem? Those two words are completely equivalent to me, relaying identical information, neither sounding nicer than the other.
