I hope I'm wrong but I feel like this is going to be great for a couple of years max, and then as people learn how to do SEO for GPT it will lead to even more nonsensical garbage on the web and totally insane results. There's too

I test drove one of these. It's a lot of fun but having power to the front wheel while cornering feels extremely dangerous to me.

I'm responding to your other claim further down that got downvoted into oblivion with no responses, and therefore no explanation. You are quite wrong, but you deserve to know why. "It's basic school knowledge that any populat

They gave me opiods after an invasive surgery that had me on crutches for a month. That stuff was strong enough that I could not safely crutch to the bathroom, I was too dizzy. Switched to low dose edibles and had no problem falling asleep,

Overall what I understand of NuScale's approach seems to account for most everything that can go wrong. But what happens if there is a natural disaster that causes much of that water to leak away quickly? Is there a failsafe for that a

I use my phone extensively throughout the day but modern phones are good enough for most things. All I want is an excellent camera built in, the higher optical zoom the better. It can be the most boring thing in the world otherwise. I hate

This is true, but while that is annoying for an able bodied individual, it can be a crisis for someone who is not. The one time I successfully called an Uber WAV only to have it be a crazy long wait, I canceled not because of the annoying w

I was recently in a wheelchair for a few weeks. Uber's ADA issues go beyond the scope of this lawsuit. Uber would consistently lie about the availability of a WAV vehicle, showing one as being nearby with low wait. Then when I would or

Is there any data on this 6% of global emissions claim? Do they mean 6% of CO2e emissions? (in which case the "2000x" claim is redundant and makes this statement overblown, as it's already factored into the CO2e calculation)

I think there is a big difference between supplementing and replacing. Near total control leaves them sheltered, naive, and probably more rebellious, and of course it's silly to think that you can do a better job across the board than

I was homeschooled from 5th grade on. The reasons people have for homeschooling their kids varies widely, from hyper-religious to anti-establishmentism to the-schools-here-suck. The types of kids people have also vary widely. So my experien

Maybe not the landfills once they are buried. But certainly from waste transfer stations or unburied waste, seagulls and other birds will pick up trash because it smells like food or may have some food in it, and then drop it outside of the

As a user, Airbnb is hostile. The price you see is never the price you pay. It's impossible to tell which listings are actually the cheaper or more expensive than others. The only reason to use them is selection, they have properties t

Pseudoephedrine helps with some sinus issues but isn't an antihistamine. There are a cocktail of allergy meds that help, but are not fast acting so I need to be on them all the time to account for one-off exposures. They don't sto

Am I in the minority in thinking that we should stop trying to optimize for huge monorepos? The problems created by them seem far worse and more expensive than the problems they purportedly solve.

You might want to put supported languages more front and center and not buried on a hard-to-find faq page. Might also want to allow folks to sign up to be alerted when their favorite language is supported, which will also let you gather dat

Given that cars already kill people en mass, there's no real advantage to slowing down something that will likely 10x the number of cars on the road, or making those cars smaller and safer? Sure, let's get to L5 as quickly as we c

While this should be fixed, I think it's always a bad idea to rely on implementation details for safety. By which I mean those filters exist for something other than protecting a system command from injection. Even if they did work pro
