Wow whiteboy7thst now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a LONG time
Honestly I feel this so hard. I’m getting increasingly tired of the BS Microsoft is pulling with Windows but at the same time my primary use case is gaming. Gaming on Linux is getting better but I don’t want to do additional work to install and play my games or have any doubt about whether I can run a certain game. Windows, for all its flaws, does meet those requirements.
Wow I really did not know there was a confederate flag on top of that car. That’s crazy
I don’t know which book you’re thinking of but this is touched on in the Castlevania show: https://youtu.be/ozID5sgofno?si=WmKK_FCgOcc08E4P
Isn’t signal open source though? I know being open source doesn’t magically make it interoperable with other services but even if Signal or Whisper systems sell out, someone could just fork the projects
I have literally never thought about it other than when these types of discussions come up. If I hadn’t been circumcised I would probably think about it the exact same amount
I just read the article, she’s suing the school because she claims administrators ignored reports the kid had a gun as well as a history of “troubling behavior”
Yeah I thought the complaints about iOS were a bit weird as well. It seemed like they didn’t like that smartphones got more capable. Of course there’s going to be a million apps and a million settings when (as you put it) consumers increasingly expect their devices to do everything
I don’t mind ads as long as they’re not following me around. Show me ads based on the community that I’m browsing or something if you want better targeting
Here’s hoping these companies have to pony up billions not millions
I mean, you can add their user agent to the robots file but the crawler could just change their user agent or even ignore the robots file if the server isn’t filtering requests by user agent
That one’s hard for me to read and I’m not even dyslexic!
I blame the rise of frameworks, libraries, and IDEs. It’s easier for someone who knows nothing to throw some software together and ship it.
I very much disagree with this. Yes to an extent you don’t need to know as much as you might have in the past but if we had to constantly reinvent the wheel, I don’t think we would have nearly as many people entering/remaining in this field. Additionally well written frameworks and libraries can actually make your code safer since you don’t have to reinvent the wheel and discover the pitfalls all over again. IDEs are also a net positive IMO. Errors next to the line of code that caused them, breakpoints, interactive debugging. These are all things I personally would find hard to live without. Necessities? Technically no. But good god do I not want to have to read build output unless necessary.
The problem I have with this view is that AI “reading” a book is not the same as you or I reading. It doesn’t actually learn it’s just predicting the most likely sequence of words to be a response to whatever prompt it receives. In that sense, the words are just data, not actual words. Given how valuable data is in this day and age, I think it makes perfect sense for OpenAI to have to either: only use public domain/authorized works, or pay the creators for their work.
And the effects will be
While the effects you list don’t seem entirely implausible, you’re stating these hypothetical situations as if they are already fact and we have evidence to indicate that. I agree with @substill in that I don’t see Threads being a threat to small communities.
TIL being American is actually about conformity. Thanks Texas
