I think this is wrong. Google is a competitor both in devices and in the OS for mobile devices. Apple charge a premium that they justify by superior features, ease of use, effortless integration with other Apple products and so on. I wonder

Have you bothered to look at all? Read the output of the model when asked about why it has the behaviour it does. Look at the plethora of images it generates that are not just historically inaccurate but absurdly so. It tells you "here

I use it for in component logic in vue. Used to have a collection of boolean or enum variables that represent the state of the component and change according to actions e.g. const isLoadingUser = ref(true). This works but often leads to unf

Yeah who cares about making needless changes to art. A lot of European art is white centric, maybe we should paint other races into it to make it more inclusive?

Musk is clearly an incredibly brittle narcissist even by billionaire standards, he is probably the least suited person to owning a platform like Twitter because he seems to misunderstand the trade-offs inherent in the social media business.

Many journalists are singularly obsessed with the eradication of 'harmful' or 'unsafe' accounts from Twitter. They are particularly concerned about doxxing when it happens to political figures they're sympathetic to

I want free speech, hence I think Elon is a tremendous hypocrite for enacting this policy. Once you start deciding whether or not things are 'safe' to say you will end up in the exact situation Jack, et al. were in when they were

Junk bonds are bonds with high credit risk, what’s wrong with selling them to customers who are after high yields?

Yeah I feel the same way about food, all food is the same now. I eat at McDonald's every day and the menu barely ever changes, they only ever seem to offer variations of this meat between two pieces of bread concept.

This is a common delusion from people who want to believe it. Those pictures are all over my timeline all the time, he's doing a bad job banning people who post them.

More people were dying from COVID in June and July in Melbourne than at any point during the pandemic. Case numbers look low because nobody even bothers getting the PCR anymore unless they work in health. The public can't be trusted to

They surely meant the booming of rubber bullets and riot shields. Victoria boomed like never before.

I'm genuinely confused by your point. Are you saying that because other countries have quarantine restrictions, that makes their pandemic approach equivalently restrictive as Australia was? Victoria spent over 250 days in lockdown betw

Multiple police were out looking for him for days, they appealed to the public for info about his whereabouts. His face and name were plastered all over national media. I live in a different state and this guy was all anyone could talk abou

Yes, the man appeared to have violated the law. I guess my criticism that the Australian government is overly restrictive and the public are hysterical moral busybodies has been rendered void because there was a law in place that he violate

They’ve never gone to the mat to defend free speech. They make a public statement indicating the discomfort they feel blocking content and then they censor it a few days later.

Twitter has banned and unverified people who impersonate others without making it clear for years. Musk didn’t initiate this. https://www.insider.com/jaboukie-giabuchi-twitter-suspended-...

You have coin in your handle. Far more likely that you're hyper-sensitive to news you think is a slight on crypto. I have seen threads about Meta and Amazon losing enormous amounts in market cap in the last week. Maybe you're the

Go is the language i use the most and in almost no sense would I consider it a replacement or contender for C. If anything it's replacing things in the opposite direction, I rarely use python now. C is used for low level stuff e.g. emb

No it wouldn’t. It would be bloated by the number of people with serious disabilities, health conditions and retirees. As your population ages you would get a bump in unemployment that tells you nothing about the demand for labour. In my fi
