Good. Hiring should be based on merit, not whether you're black or trans.

I mean, the week the iPhone X came out, they put out an irreversible update for the iPhone 7 that made it unusable. They also tried to charge me 2,300$ to fix just one broken keyboard key. Apple is definitely that bad.

...Was it Honey?

What are your actual parameters? Are you doing keto? Do you count your carbs - if so what's your limit?

I used keto the first time I lost weight, and it also somehow cured my binge eating forever. But it's hard to keep up long term.

How is this news? At this point isn't this like saying "smoking linked to lung cancer cases"?

I'm sure the study itself has merit but I don't get why it's on the front page.

Because Raspberry Pi is trying to IPO

Altering headlines automatically is really irresponsible.

I don't know what I'm talking about but don't you need more than one bit to have non-linearity?

My sister abused me (emotionally mostly, but occasionally hitting me or throwing water on me) for years growing up and lies about it to this day. People lie about this shit even when they have nothing to gain but attention.

This woman may very well be telling the truth, but she very well may be just trying to get a piece of the pie now that he's insanely rich. Don't just jump on board with the cancellation mob. Let the court do its job.

If they didn't care about the difference they obviously wouldn't have searched for Google in the first place

That makes no sense. If they don't care what search engine they're using, why do it?

I don't think so. Linux still hasn't figured out how to install programs smoothly. In fact, installing a Windows program on Linux is easier than installing a Linux native program. Anything released in AppImage format requires you to write your own config file to get a shortcut and icon? Seriously? Until they figure that out the average person is going to quickly give up on it.

None of those things are a scam.

Humans are usually what matters, and the hardest thing to fake.

CGI has been good for a while, but up until recently, if you showed me a video of a person speaking, it'd generally be pretty easy to tell if it was really them or was fake. Now, it's not so sure, and it doesn't take a hundred million dollar Hollywood budget to fake a person speaking, it just takes a 600$ GPU.

Look at Tarkin in Rogue One. Incredibly expensive and detailed animation, months of professional animator time, multiple passes and reviews and changes, huge budget... and you can still tell it's CG. And that wasn't even that long ago.

Now I can make a convincing video of Elon Musk telling you to buy some shitcoin in 5 minutes in my basement.

The more people and resources it takes to fake something, the harder it is to keep a secret. Also - when editing photos became easy, we could always step it up to video for 'proof' - if deepfakes and video generation become easy, what do we step it up to? What's beyond video?

I'm not saying the sky will fall in - digital photo editing didn't end the world - but it is definitely a different situation than before and deserves consideration.

I'm so sorry. I gave you an upvote so hopefully a Meta employee sees this. It's crazy how much power these few companies have.

"Hey everyone, you know that person who went to great lengths to hide who they are, that bent over backwards to make sure nobody would ever find out their identity? That's me everyone! I'm that guy!!"

As an Australian who earns under 100k and bought an electric car last year for 52,000$, it would have been cool if this was available then, but the actual interest saving is minimal. It's not really that low.

Scotland, on the other hand, gives you the loan entirely interest free.

Okay upon further investigation it does appear I was incorrect about that case. I'm glad to have been, that was very concerning and scary. My mistake.

However there are still some concerning cases - a girl was punished for posting song lyrics:

I thought America had freedom?? How can they claim to have freedom if the government says they can't even use a video app.

I think you'd have a hard time on any console before the SNES. No matter what you do an Atari VCS is not running Doom.

Even worse, now some apps are not allowing screenshots. That's bullshit, it's my phone, I should be able to screenshot whatever the hell I want.

I'd probably change that name if I was you

Can't wait for Google to abandon this in 6 months and shut it down in two years!

Let's all get invested... not.

I just checked and unfortunately ChatGPT has no problem processing the name "Constable Spacekick McBadass"

It's like when you find out the band you like probably didn't respond to you, but just some social media manager.

I think it'll reach the conclusion it should kill us all regardless

Anything about gender ideology for one

And how do you enforce that Valve implements and respects the blockchain? You can't, and if you do you can just force them to respect a traditional database.

Feels weird explaining this on HN.

Blockchain helps none of those things in the slightest.
