A similar one, although less a story and more a documentary, is Alberto Angela's A day in the life of ancient Rome. It too, talks about apartments in ancient Rome. https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/6

TFA originally meant "The Fucking Article" but on HN seems to have morphed its meaning to "The Fine Article" or "The Featured Article". I can't stop reading it as the former every time I come across it.

I have learned to do this quite late in my life and by accident, to relieve acute physical pain.

I've read it as "genocide" too and I scrolled down to see if there were any comments like yours. I wasn't disappointed.

I would be more cautious in generalizing this feeling. To me that interface feels daunting and cognitively taxing, compared to a CLI or command palette.

This is also not Reddit where you call for mods to remove things you find uncomfortable. I'd rather this guy be talked out of his delusions rather than letting him become more aggravated alone. Failing that, other people who were about

How do you deal with emails bouncing or going to spam? I have been looking to move away from Gmail but last I read it was the only reliable option out there.

In your case the jobs look closely related, don't they?

They have the advantage to be able to rectify their errors and have a big leg up if they ever decide to specialize.

A $xxxx 2.5 year old laptop, one that's probably much more powerful than an average laptop bought today and probably next year as well. I don't think it's a fair reference point.

I wouldn't mind and I would actually prefer if things were translated correctly, adapting to local slang, cultural references and the likes. As of now translations are weird if not outright cringey. This is a problem with LLMs in gener

I wonder if we even need to consume content by reading , as opposed to watching or listening, to be neurologically healthy and developed, considering it's something we didn't start doing until a few thousand years ago. Isn't

Maybe they have omitted those because the focus is on artificial sweeteners? As for myself I try to avoid anything that could be dangerous, not only what I eat or drink.

There you go. No artificial sweetener seems to be safe...guess I'll have to get used to making unsweetened protein bars and the occasional drinks and ice cream. Their sugar counterparts are too caloric.

Is there a problem with that? If so, what is it? I don't mind as long as it's not the boilerplate AI spits out by default.

How do you know? I'd have to see those modules first to have an opinion.

Undoubtedly, but a significant positive aspect is the democratization of this technology that enables access for people who could not afford it, not productively, that is.

I think the issue with AI (in contrast to human interaction) is its lack of real-time responsiveness. This slower back-and-forth can lead to frustration, especially if it takes a dozen or more messages to get the point across. Humans are al
