Nothing is surprising once you know the answer. It takes some mental gymnastics to put yourself in someone else's shoes before they discovered it and thus making it less "basic".

Either you got used to their evolved dark patterns or you haven't booked with them recently. I was also Pro-Ryanair: they allowed to see friends and family across Europe with a student budget. Now, it's an 8-step booking process w

If you're using Firefox, it's a known bug and you can fix it by reverting the bitwarden extension and then wait for the fix.

It's in their roadmap, from what they said. I'd imagine they wouldn't reject someone who wanted to contribute that feature to the project.

Vision is not a dictator, it's just having half an idea of where you'd love to be in X years. It can and probably will move as you age and gain experience. But if you're thinking you'd love to be your own boss and, as yo

Sure but "the other stuff" is Lady Gaga and Bunny, which we won't have issue finding a copy of. Sure, there is AI stuff but also not.

You have a wayyy too skewed perception of the general tech person. I normally get way better and varied recommendations from my philosophy friends, for example. Here it's generally just the usual mainstream sci-fi stuff about tech, spa

Truly amazing work. I couldn't help but being sad of the less popular songs not being currently stored, as those are definitely the ones more in risk of being lost forever. If you like the goal and you have even a few 100gb available o

The main difference is that people can re-host and seed part of the data by offering space in their own servers. If AA goes down, it's not the end of it all, a new one comes back up and the seeders are still there.

I've had the same exact feeling for a while: several people known to be in the files are not the purest people we know and I'm not sure them being there will have any effect whatsoever. Taking Trump, what would really change to hi

Hey dang, don't worry. It's just a site for reading articles and reacting to them. Enjoy your deserved sleep and if for a couple of hours it's down, so be it. Thanks for your continued service!

I think you might need to use Nightly version for this.

There are literally less than 20 top level comments and this one is (at least for me) the 2nd or 3rd. Instead of a nothingburger, you could have used your academic prowess to break down the top 1/2 misconceptions with expertise. You mi

I'm already seeing this and it's only a few years old. I like the metaphor of burning wood, I also think it's going to be left for fun.

I think you say that so easily because it doesn't actually impact you. It'd be absolutely pissed off if I had to constantly watch out how I naturally write because otherwise people will shame me for thinking I had used AI.

True but do you really think, all summed up, they had it worse than LATAM?
261.
by xandrius 10mo ago
Graceful arguing right there. If you feel like enlightening us how China fared worse than LATAM or you can avoid being all snarky like that.
262.
by xandrius 10mo ago
China's external turmoil can be boxed within the 1800s and I don't think it included: 80+% of casualties, forced religious conversion, forced language conversion, wholesale destruction of books and culture, etc.

The education system is a prime example of Goodhart's Law and I'm so surprised how little it's done to avoid that. I guess that as long as possessing a piece of paper stating "Mr. White passed all hoops we put in front o

To summarise the article: in PG, prefer using UUIDv7 over UUIDv4 as they have slightly better performance. If you're using latest version of PG, there is a plugin for it. That's it.

Not to disagree with your point but why does literally any discussion must have a mention of AI/LLMs? Is it possible not to bring them up and still have a deep conversation?

by xandrius 10mo ago
I'd say the extent and duration of the disruption between Latin America and the counties you mentioned are quite different. LATAM started from the get go being awfully disrupted from the 1500s and in catastrophic ways. Also, we don&#x2

The topic here is not ads vs not-ads. It's "why are companies who are already paid via ads also want to make extra money selling personal data to third parties?".
269.
by xandrius 10mo ago
This is a false dichotomy: it's not a given that companies must make money out of personal data. There are things which shouldn't be for sale, and I believe personal information is one of those. Even though we don't have anot

I would be very happy to discuss the matter with you but there seems to be some hostility and edge in the way you argue your point which makes it hard to engage with. Anyway, in short, everything you said applies to literally any human or e
