We made this site for people who search. We were those people, searching Google for where to watch cars racing on the Nürburgring and then getting nothing but cryptic route descriptions on forums. So we created a map with actual walking rou

There really is none. A smart company would work with the 4 eyes principle though (still no guarantee). However, if a company does find an unrelated e-mail they want to use against you (which is what most people fear), that makes them liabl

I feel like this one is impossible to do right. On one side, it's people like you saying: 'government oversight is hurting our innovation'. Directly opposed is: 'AI Companies are growing too fast and something bad will h

For giggles I asked ChatGPT to write a typical SEO optimized recipe. It picked cookies and started with: "Ah, the sweet aroma of freshly baked cookies! It always takes me back to my grandmother's cozy kitchen, where the warmth was

> I also almost never use apps like dedicated banking apps or social media apps; instead, using Safari. Nearly every bank I know of recommends using apps over their website, since in general they're safer than using their websites.

I was unaware of this act before reading this, but I kinda like it. My current employer wants to do the absolute minimum in securing the software they develop. However, it's used at in organizations working on national energy and commu

I feel like blaming guns might upset some people, but I don't feel like this type of thing happens as much in the rest of the western world, where gun laws are typically a lot stricter.

Actually, no. This is just another example of a headline leaving out important details of the actual case. In this case the plaintiff actually named the AI as the producer, not themselves. From the case: "the sole issue of whether a wo
