That's not a very honest way of phrasing whats happening there. Sure it "leaks" that you are retrieving this VideoID from this IP, but you make it sound like it's sending your youtube viewing history to some random web

I think I figured it out: If all non-citizens are aliens, then aliens of enemy nationality is a subset of that group. It's defined by aliens that are from a country that is designated as an enemy country. So French aliens are not inclu

What do you mean people don't talk about it? I may be misunderstanding what you mean by "it" specifically, but if you're referring to some sort of targeting of ethnic/religious/racial groups, then it most certa

I read it that way too, even if he didn't explicitly say it. Probably because Takei is known to be very vocally anti-Republican or anti-right or pro-left or pro-liberal, not sure of the exact dynamic there. But the comment also said Ta

Or how about how they still replace pinned shortcuts in the new page with sponsored ads. Like the magical top left one that I don't even look at before clicking because it's a link to my mail. Two years later and they're stil

In one sentence: Make it the browser that fixes the web. E.g. Remove ads, privacy popups , paywalls, ad tracking, and other annoyances. Make the plugin ecosystem so good that people flock to help you with that and then people will only want

Due to the blatant activism. I really feel they shouldn't go all in on it right now. Winds are changing and they'll end up alienating the new youth that I see hints of starting to push back at the feel good activism for the sake o

We don't need a study to prove that policing is effective at stopping or preventing crime. I don't actually know what you're suggesting we do instead. But until you can show me a study that shows a community with zero crime

But why? Does the price vary and you don't want customers to know they got different deals? Or you don't want competitors to know?

Sure there is: Identify the degenerate behaviour and punish it. Whatever that may be and 51% of us can agree on. If that's tik tok, all social media, YouTube, infinite scroll, use generated media websites, drug misogyny and degenerate

Genuinely curious cause I want to compare. Can you give me an example of a "conservative hot topic" that happens to have a factual answer like the gender one? I could just as well ask the AI about "liberal hot topics" th

What you guys seem to be describing is "Freenet", but that project has been around forever and relatively obscure. These days, unfortunately, I wouldn't touch it with a 10ft pole due to safety concerns. https://en.

This is why I am starting to think that it is very important for us to be able to "introspect" and reason about the thoughts/feelings we're having. It allows us to have an internal feedback loop that I think a lot of peo

Just ask it how many genders there are and see what happens. It's like all those misleading ads saying "T's and C's apply", but the ai language model version: "As an AI language model, I must be neutral and unb

As much as I like to generally, I wouldn't blame Google for this, rather I blame the entire field of "UX".

I'm not OP, but I would look at this tool I found a while back. Ridiculously useful and underrated. I think someone on HN linked it, as I've not found a tool so useful via googling despite many attempts. https://re.jrc.

Honestly, the general feeling I get from people is that such public places are dangerous esp for families with kids. And it makes sense. If you aren't policing and controlling bad group behaviour, then people lose trust in such a thing

You are 100% correct. They have planned "blackouts" according to a schedule so that it's fair and everyone gets a turn. However the schedule is based on how heavily the strain on the network is, which they regularly fiddle wi

This is already happening in South Africa. The grid pretty much can't provide and is now turned off for people for up to 40% of the day. So over the last decade, a huge amount of solar installations have made people a few small steps a

It's simple. We want trusted individuals and knowledgeable debate on the topic, especially for one so controversial. And yet, this entire thread is now revolving on your meta commentary on the topic. Very disappointing. It doesn't

Not OP. But I'd be very skeptical of such a story, even if you phrase it delicately and devoid of the main "trigger" words. It's like asking it to roleplay as Hitler wearing blackface that then gets offended because he&#
