What I can’t get over is that it’s very simple to just air gap a system off the network. Predownload any dependencies, then pull the proverbial Ethernet cable. There’s no reason why the testing they’re doing couldn’t have been designed in t

This person sounds insufferable. I mean, there’s lack of consideration for your fellow humans, and then there’s openly admitting that you “don’t care to understand” the reasons for why anyone feels differently from you. Let’s say no to this

That’d make sense, I don’t actually have any personal experience with Current so I was just going off the essay/site. But of course AI is quite good at making inordinately convincing versions of those.

Even with all these revelations, there’s still something so weird about this whole story. To go from crafting such a strong, principled app as Current to conjuring an AI-slop-fueled false narrative around an astrology app is such a wild swi

It takes a very normal kind of company to judge you for how well you fit into the narrow box they’ve built for ‘employee’ that has no room for emotion or consideration of the person. In fact, I don’t know if there’s another kind of company.

I think you’re missing the fact that no one is saying not to be concerned, quite the contrary. OpenAI is using the threat of how powerful its models are to bolster support for regulation in which it’s one of the only players that’s allowed

The whole premise of this line of thought is faulty because everybody seems to assume that you're entirely either a door-open person or a door-closed person. The point is choice. There are door-open and door-closed times of every day.

I think the novel concept here is taking a three month unpaid vacation every year , which I doubt is common or easy in any tech company. Personally, I would sooner go for a four-day work week, which would probably be an easier sell to most

It's amazing to see the Olympian gymnastics routines the tech world is going through right now to try to make the Cybertruck anything but a hilarious testament to Tesla's hubris. Not only is it the ugliest thing that's ever e

Cybertruck isn't even competitive, let alone impressive, in its market segment. Doug DeMuro did a great rundown of this here: https://youtu.be/Q-0DdRHA-ZQ

You’re well within your right to buy a Tesla, modify it to the moon and back, and use it independently however you want. I hate Tesla as a company and I’m a strong supporter of these rights, but I stop at claiming that businesses have an ob

The idea that people’s important opinions can be changed by some sort of silver bullet mega-argument is naive and immature, and frankly a great example of what’s wrong with discourse on the internet. In this light, the fact that CMV has the

The cold actually reduces range considerably and increases charging times. I’ve even heard reports of being unable to charge a Tesla through a standard 120VAC outlet if the weather is below freezing.

Simple, because people would buy it instead of the more expensive new iPhones. They don't want unit sales anymore, they want ASP.

Small phone equals small battery, and when you have a reduced power budget there's some things you just can't do. Small phone also obviously equals small hardware components. To the extent that components occupy physical space on

It happens all over the place all the time, if you don't stay late you're "not a team player". Of course your employer isn't going to say you're fired because you're a parent, unless their attorneys are bo

I don't think the author is suggesting that you need to 100% complete this entire prescriptive road map to start working as a web developer. This is more an illustration of the journey that a developer might take from zero knowledge to

Many hourly jobs actually don't get paid for sick time off, or sick hours are accrued as a benefit that you use-or-lose. The former scenario is obviously not fraud, but even in the latter scenario they've earned the pay they'

The existence of TSA PreCheck is all the proof you need that the onerous additional screenings of TSA Economy are pointless. Either that, or it's impossible for someone with $85 and a clean background check to commit terrorist acts.

They get back-paid eventually, whenever the shutdown ends. But many are probably living paycheck-to-paycheck and can't afford to wait. The article posits that at least some are calling out to work other jobs that can actually give them

Your flaw is in assuming that tablet + keyboard == laptop. Tablet + keyboard is way better than a laptop in some contexts, way worse in others. Imagine being an illustrator that also does a lot of communication with clients over email. Imag

Lowering the effort bar for making Mac apps doesn't mean that every developer is going to do the bare minimum, but it does mean that more developers will find it economical to build natively. The point you're arguing is not good a

People always forget that Manhattan goes all the way up into the 200s of streets. You can live in Manhattan on pretty much any budget imaginable. Whether you should is another question. The East Village also goes all the way out to Avenue

You suspect that the average person is going to give up a convenience that benefits them multiple times daily to ever so slightly mitigate the risk of an incredibly rare problem? I do not agree.
