How many of those 64% had their accident because of phones/drugs/recklessness and claimed to be distracted instead? With all the liability and shame involved in fatal crashes there's absolutely no way people are going to hone

You're wrong! [I'm sure you won't have any desire for me to explain my position and will regard this interaction positively.]

What do you want people to say? "Yay, the terrible law that threatened to make free computing illegal has an exemption for Linux. Now we only have to deal with unwanted mandatory age verification on all our non-linux devices. I'm

Discount tire estimates 70% of the current tire options will be illegal to sell in CA. Millions of people will be pushed into different tires than they have based on a limited list of options. Many of those as alternative tires will wear ou

Good Lord. You know that Anduril industries will keep making drones no matter how many discussions about retro gaming you ruin right? This backlash can hurt modretro, it can affect the author of this game, but the impact on the defense indu

I think you misread...the quote is about recycling the adhesive itself with hand sanitizer, not pieces assembled with it. Running an industrial recycling process with unwanted hand sanitizer as a solvent is peak comedy. Now for disassembly,

Early Firefox was the example. Looking at Firefox's market share decline since Eich got replaced reinforces the point though.

Hey man, you made a successful product, wrote a great article, and are now getting attention for it. You don't need to respond to every person who wants to nit pick at your title :) I think there's a lot of people talking past eac

I mean mods are always about tradeoffs. You're generally not smarter than the team of engineers that designed it, but you probably do have different goals, that's where the opportunity to improve an aspect of the car comes in. I t

The author doesn't do that either. A 50 year old got excited about a Toyota Corolla and everyone is blaming him for the decline of fucking society.

Dude...gp comment was making the completely inoffensive point that politics has more complexity than pro/against Trump. It's almost too obvious to say, but it wasn't really being factored into the discussion so it was worth p

From the details I read in the post you are almost certainly wrong, not to mention being reallying condescending. The interviewer has control over the room. They steer the conversation. They could have stopped this at any point. Instead the

If you've ever driven more than 5 miles an hour, you risked hurting someone for your convenience. Acknowledging life has risk tradeoffs doesn't make you an American, but denying it can make you a self-righteous jerk.

I'm sorry but you're logic really doesn't add up. If a part goes from $30 to $285 because of massive insurance premiums, that indicates that the insurance company expects things to go wrong. The real reasons oem parts cost mo

I thought that article was impractical and totally divorced from reality. Effort can't be fairly measured so in practice the attempts toward "effortocracy" always seem to replace objective systems with a mess of human biases.

You know you could simply pass by ignoring this article since you claim it doesn't apply to you. But uhh, your need to put the author down is revealing.

My experience is very similar. For greenfield side projects and self contained tasks LLMs deeply impress me. But my day job is maintaining messy legacy code which breaks because of weird interactions across a large codebase. LLMs are worse

Chill out...the most condescending comment here by far is yours, and the "well ackchually" that sent the thread of the rails is your comparison between cancer cells and needing insulin. If you don't want people to poke holes

Nonsense. This is Stanford. The admissions process filtered for highly academically successful students and then 38% of them claimed a disability which impairs their academic performance. It's bullshit of the most obvious kind.

And absolutely none of that refutes the claims from Kahn that started this thread.

The percentage change is the same for everyone. If a consumer pays 10.05 instead of 10.03, they pay 0.2% more. If a store games prices to charge 0.2% more on a million transactions it's still 0.2% for them. Except the rounding on multi

As the project matures, the risk tolerance should mature too. Betting your own time and money on the realization of a crazy ideal can be very noble. Betting a resource millions of people are relying on is destructive hubris. They should tak

If we're gonna be pendantic about fallacies, you're using argument by analogy and it's not in any way comparable to the claims GP made about OpenAI.

The author wants to find content when he is looking for something specific. He does not want his attention grabbed by something he wasn't looking for, no matter how educational it may be. Multiple people have clearly explained this to

Voting on every site is an emotional response, and bad news + convincing arguments against currently held beliefs produces a strong negative one. I appreciate that you gave more insight into electricity markets today.

It baffles me that they dug this hole in the first place. I have feelings on the zero-indexing vs one-indexing debate, but at the end of the day you can write correct code in either, as long as you know which one you're using. But Juli

My dad got bit by a tick, came down with a high fever, but tested negative for Lyme so the doctor wouldn't prescribe antibiotics after two appointments with worsening symptoms. He was hospitalized when he was too sick to walk and then

I'll add that there are some feedback loops making it worse. When these organizations aren't available kids are more dependent on their parents for something to do, which makes the already strained parents even less likely to take

The last flight I was on was American Airlines. We waited in the plane while they tried to figure out to start it because the auxiliary power unit was out, and the generator American uses to start planes with no APU was also broken, so they

It refused and I followed up with "why not?"and I passed. Until then, the LLM was infuriating. It kept misunderstanding what I was saying and then calling me a bot.
