I noticed that in some of those situations people forget that they also googled the topic they just discussed. So e.g. two friends were having a conversation about camping and googled specific camping items or locations. Then (seemingly sus

I am highlighting the problem with relying on lists, rather than making an informed decision individually. Of course, there is convenience in that, and everyone should do whatever they want. However, BS is very quickly becoming an echo-cham

I have been called a nazi for stating that Ukraine has the right to defend itself. So I am probably on one of your lists.

Just double checking - there is an opt-out feature that cross-posts all IG posts to Threads?

by changing1999 2y ago
True. But you don't become an active monthly user. Unless there are some shenanigans happening, which is highly likely. I think I visited Threads by accident several times by clicking posts in IG, that were apparently Threads posts emb

The problem with codifying hate speech (and, eventually, punishing for it) is that even today the existing definitions are extremely broad and subjective. UN's own definition includes the use of pejorative language, i.e. "disrespe

Reminds me of the joke from Peep show about naming their band "Various Artists".

There is a huge number of TV shows (e.g. old British comedy shows) and movies (e.g. big releases from Trier) that are not available to stream on any streaming service in the US. There is no other option than to pirate. An astoundingly ridic

> I'd like to see this death rate for the subset of the SA population that matches migrant demographics, ex: age and gender. Then we can see what the comparable death rates are for healthy young men. I don't disagree with your

None of that is factual. If it is - present evidence that: 1. all workers involved in this project are slaves, i.e. trafficked and sold into slavery and are owned as property. 2. OP justifies the deaths and not merely tries to add context a

It's a fact that strong emotions can cloud judgment and result in cognitive biases. See my comment above in the same thread, the data suggests that OP's view is not unreasonable. Your comment uses charged language like "assho

Because jumping to emotionally driven conclusions is not a healthy reaction and usually leads to bad outcomes.

Looking purely at data (eg https://data.who.int/countries/682 ) your point is not unreasonable. Saudi Arabia population is ~35M with ~120K deaths per year. 10M immigrants is ~32K deaths per year.

Interesting, that's a very cool idea! I tried Reaper when it was released but didn't find a good reason to move away from Pro Tools. That was a very long time ago though. What's the best community for sharing ReaScripts? Also

Logic falls into a weird space between pro (studio) software and home studio software. Professional studios mostly use Pro Tools and Cubase (Europe). Home users mostly migrated to Live. It's obviously an oversimplification but it does

Me too! If anything, iPhone photos became more over-processed over the last decade.

It's very similar in regards to treating the increase in compute power consumption as a signal of "growth".

Even camera improvements are overblown. My usage and photo quality did not improve much since ~iPhone 6. Taking decent travel photos, selfies, etc - I was happy with the results 10 years ago. Technically, I understand the difference in the

How would an additional tax address this? Paying more would hardly reduce usage, and definitely won't incentivize users to dispose of vape pens more responsibly.

That's an overly pessimistic view. Both professional and personal growth depend on effectiveness. Even conformity doesn't exclude it. You can conform better by being more effective.

The least effective FE engineers I worked with (big tech) are people who learned client-side tech by learning React. They have a very limited understanding of UI concepts and an insufficient attention to detail. React is arguably more about

I highly recommend to start by building a very simple website from scratch using HTML and CSS. It's very common today for FE engineers to have a very limited understanding of the basics because they picked up client-side tech by follow

Kagi has bangs. This is different. It's a shortcut for "site: somesite.com", while a bang just redirects to the somesite.com search results page.

I mean... even if you do have the source code it will eventually stop working if you try to use it on newer stacks. The question is who is updating the software, not necessarily who owns it.

My only criticism of this approach is that it asks highly sensitive users to learn a critical keyboard shortcut that will not work anywhere else. What will happen if users attempt to triple press "shift" on any other surface that

Oh this is great! Currently I don't incorporate web search into the UI I use, will give OpenWebUI a try.

I use Llama 3.1 8B Instruct 128k at home and that pretty much covers all my LLM needs. Don't see a reason to pay for GPT-4.

It is cringe as a vision, but I still think it's a more positive investment than coming up with new ways to evade data privacy laws. While the animated "metaverse" is unlikely to succeed, maybe the hardware itself will push t
