I think sometimes flip side is that the engineer looks like they just shipped a bunch of "small features" A, B, C... because the solutions were so simple

IMO, there should be 3 categories of users, and they can choose a system wide setting that applies across all their apps and settings: * Bulletproof * Privacy Conscious * Normal (recommended) That way users are roughly opting in and opting

I don't know, I'm of the opinion there is no true substitute other than jumping ship to a better learning environment. I think as long as you're cognizant of it, maybe that time comes in 2-3 years, maybe sooner.

I didn't see anyone mention the rationale. Here it is: "Twitter was acquired by X Corp both to ensure freedom of speech and as an accelerant for X, the everything app. This is not simply a company renaming itself, but doing the sa

Right. Article is from 2012 as well. The communication landscape arguably has evolved a lot since then. With Slack, for example, you have so much fine grained control. I don't know if it makes sense to implement a blanket "shut of

In the long run, I look forward to people and companies sorting themselves to their respective camps of "remote" vs "non-remote". Economics will prove which one works better.

At the risk of pointing out the obvious, this is mostly referring to Internet enabled goods and services. As other commenters have pointed out, it doesn't apply as much to actual physical products. So this leads to reason, should any o

What is the compensation range for software engineers in the auto industry? Is there a place to look at job descriptions?

This is likely untrue. I think tone is something ChatGPT excels at. The issue is more likely with your prompting. Sure, with standard prompting you'd get the "college essay" feel. However, I do think long form writing is some

Say it is an assault. Some guy / lady yelled at you for 10 seconds aggressively. Are you now going to call the cops / file a police report? I think a majority of people would just move on with their day. So yes, to your point, thi

Is the weakest link here iCloud backups? Afaik, the backups are encrypted but Apple has the key and is the one doing this encryption.

Sure. However the "lack of safety" perception is real too. If a homeless person walks up to you and aggressively threatens you as you are passing by, no crime has occurred. But if you're an SF native, you've learned to s

Meh. I'd argue that the conclusion for Metaverse/crypto hasn't been reached yet. (Why? There's a 1.2T market cap saying it hasn't). It's like saying internet grocery delivery is dead because Webvan died in the

Just a few notes I quickly thought of: - SF has policies that encourages homeless to emigrate there, one of which is being pretty lenient to anyone who sets up camp on the streets - SF allows open drug markets that has become a hotbed of cr

Why do you have to be so short-sighted and only think in the US? You can reform and adopt working policies here too.

What type of workouts were you doing, were they unusually strenuous? This reads as if the general population doesn't work out — if they did, your workouts wouldn't be that out of the norm.

My take is that for GPT-4, it has mastery of existing knowledge. I'm not sure how it would be able to push new boundaries.
