That’s my understanding as well, that it’s opt-in. That brings me little comfort. I actually love the idea of embedded LLM help. I just wish Google used on-device compute with small models. The idea that the browser will be used to farm dat

Well, yes actually. Except unfortunatly, I think I'm right.

Is this an intentional browser API concession due to some polling limit? I don't see the connection?

Interesting, didn't know that! Wonder why they don't. My issue here is with wheel events. They look identical for trackpads and mice, so I can't code for different behaviour.

I'm actually hoping I'm wrong about the inability to reliably distinguish between trackpad and mousewheel wheel events.

How is it discrimination if they set the termination date for ALL employees to March 1, 2023?

Here's a much more salient example: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1499976967105433600 Musk is clearly pro-Ukraine, but apparently refused to block Russian news sources on Starlink when asked to.

I think you're making a mathematical error here. If inflation goes to zero, that does not mean prices have fallen to where they were before. It merely means prices stop increasing further. So a temporary bout of inflation equal in mag

In case it didn’t occur to you: I think this was put forward as an example of culture producing negative outcomes.

Comparing oneself with other people on a single dimension is a bad idea because likely the most extraordinary thing about that other person is what stands out. Said otherwise, it’s the reason you chose them as a comparison point. Same with

The reason for Discord over Slack, BTW is voice & video. Otherwise Slack is working great.

Discord would be awesome for work ... I want to use it so bad. But the terms of service are completely unpalatable. Discord basically gets a perpetual license to anything you post.

IMO a manager needs to make their direct reports and their team successful. But you can start doing that while you're an IC: get in the habit of unblocking people and generally being useful. Also, manage a coop student or intern. One

I still think you're strawmanning the essay (and I'm sorry you didn't figure out sooner what you wanted to do with your life - that really sucks!). Bill Gates knew what he really wanted to do and what interested him so not ta

Your point may be true, but it's not a rebuttal to the parent's assertion that "contagious narratives" are a normal part of many generally accepted systems. It's like you're throwing in random information.

I think the $40k price tag is deceptive if you look a bit closer. The extended range 300 mile battery is only available on the Platinum edition which starts at $60k IIRC, otherwise you're stuck with 230 miles which IMO going to make t

"Judge each part of your work based on your motivations." Nicely said. Puts into words a phenomenon I've experienced in the past: the more motivated I am, the more pragmatic my decision making becomes ("pragmatic"

I think you might be looking at this a little too black and white. Perhaps a robot won't replace an electrician, but an electrician with advanced technology at his/her disposal can do the work that in the past required several electricians

I've experienced similar, but only when working hourly from home. I guess I feel responsible for distractions in my own house, but when I'm in the office I have no second thoughts about billing for the time where I did my best in the envir
