Funny how the decline of American hegemony over social media coincides with Americans arguing social media should be nation-specific.

My point is they don't even need to do that. If people cant get paid there is no ecosystem of content. Plus why would TikTok themselves care about this after they leave the American market.

What will happen to the creators that make a living on TikTok...

Unclear what your conspiracy is, it is a fact you can get around a government ban with a VPN. It just doesn't solve the problem at hand.

Creators can't get paid, advertisers can't advertise, the whole ecosystem dies. Sure you can still access the app with a VPN but that's just 4chan with extra steps.

If the creators can't make money they will stop using it.

What a trip you are on. You can't be in war with the country that produces all the stuff you have in your house.

Does it spew Chinese propaganda though? Have you even used TikTok?

"you don't get Nancy Pelosi and Marjorie Taylor Greene on the same side unless there is some serious fire" All you need to convince American politicians of anything is jingling keys and cash. Plus MTG opposed the original Tik

>A spin to a US company is not enough. It needs to cease operating in the US because there’s no surety that even with a spin data and sharing won’t get back to ByteDance China. At this level of paranoia you may as well ban Facebook and o

Weak argument for something everyone already knew. Nice you work at openAI, I guess.

In their minds these are all measures to counter the "China-Russia-Iran" block.

Giving something away on "Buy Nothing" seems like the same amount of work as selling the thing to me (except with no money exchange).

That would be very nice. My suspicion is that a certain amount of work from the former owner, or from someone who is very knowledgeable about that type of object, is required to explain the value of the item to a potential buyer. Somehow th

The results of his collaboration with Hardy (the approximations for the partition function and the circle method) make it clear he knew well what he was doing. Nobody was doing anything similar at the time.

Science is much older than that. The modern peer review process (as a way to decide which papers get "accepted" vs "rejected") began no earlier than the 1960's.

It seems like a misconception that Ramanujan could not explain his reasoning. He did not write it down on his notebooks (and before going to England he mostly lacked the language of formal proofs to do it), but for the most part the equatio

"we don't know anything about his math generation process" My man just look at the notebooks. He did not use formal proofs but he was very organized and most of his equations had quite a logical buildup from equations that he

Every Tesla owner I know is constantly taking their car for maintenance and "small fixes".

I bet that most of these design decisions were made by the same Chinese manufacturers that design the cheap stuff we buy on eBay. And when China inevitably starts producing a cheaper tesla alternative they will go looking for a spy like the

Sadly you are like the 6th google employee I personally told about this (and it is still up).

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hbo-watch-party/dn... This is the link to the malicious extension.

Actually never mind, I double checked and it was just HBO watch party (it is still up and has the malware). I appreciate if you can take a look at this.

It is a pretty random example, but it is meant to say that the math is rarely the limiting factor for security. People spend time thinking about this type of stuff because they like it, not because it is actually important for security. In
