Every website I visit could get a fraction of a cent in my Cloudflare Wallet. A human browsing incurs a few dollars a month. Plus, any website I access in this way decides not to show me ads either and just charges me the cost of serving th

This just happens to be the consensus opinion for their group. Kids have never cared about being accepted by people 20 years older than they are; kids have always cared about being accepted by their peers. Social cooling means that dissent

In sports betting contexts, you're often just betting against other players, I believe. If they're anything like prediction markets, the exchange isn't going to care how successful you are, as long as you're betting.

You can, but that makes the type system worse. Also depending on how these few bytes are used, they can add up and drag down performance.

The corporate charity will not dry up. AI makes it easier to generate content, and Meta's in the business of facilitating the sharing of that content. Content is surface area for ads. AI will also make the virtual realities of the &quo

The more money we give, the more viable it becomes for maintenance to become their day job. It's very likely that more money here would've mitigated the burnout. Aside from just being able to quit their actual job and focus on the

This could've happened to anybody, frankly. The attacker was advanced and persistent. I cannot help but feel sympathetic for the original maintainer here.

Fitness is specific to an activity, but yeah, the Barkley Marathon is probably the hardest form of ultra running.

Profiling is a pretty basic technique that is applicable to all software engineering. I'm not sure what a "normal" service is here, but I think we all have an obligation to understand what's happening in the systems we o

I agree with both statements you've made, however I don't see why offering food and housing security would necessitate mass murder, if we were to try it from a less ideological fervent posture. It wouldn't be described as a p

I think we're at a point in the history of Western civilization where we should strive to guarantee non-painful survival for all our citizens. This doesn't necessarily mean comfort, but nobody who grew up legally in the United Sta

The external component is meant to fit in one's pocket, so the added size, heat, and moving parts would make for an awkward fit.

The AI industry seems to exist in order to make it possible for there to be value without labor.

I agree that it's a big change in the economics of getting art (e.g. a single game dev can now plausibly get assets this way), but I'm not sure that it's a change in the "cognitive" process of creation. This is in r

How much of the "novel ways which have never been considered before" is just the novelty effect of having your very own artist? A human being could certainly produce any of the works of Dall-E 2, given the same prompt. The change

Would it make sense to build a datacentre underground to help with cooling?

Yes? Why is that hard to accept? Jobs with positive externalities are by definition undercompensated.

A spatial game where you can drop virtual turds on sidewalks and spread your virtual feces on walls. These are persistent and shared, so you can see the art that other people have wrought.

It's also a perverse incentive for the airport to not improve security times. The less predictable the security experience is, the earlier people have to show up, and the more time they spend getting hungry airside.

I don't see how the ratio of dead Ukrainians to dead Russians is relevant to the utility of winning this war. It can also be construed as an argument for increased funding, because the Ukrainians are losing so badly. In my view, curtai

I see a lot of people buying the C2. Is this the undisputed winner for a new 4K television? I am vaguely in the TV market but am mildly intimidated by the variety.
