How do you trust advertisements? Do you do your own research after?
Synthetic7346··on Age verification is just a precursor to automated attribution of speech
How can you fix the child education problem without fixing the parent education? School is but a few hours a day, and kids spend more time with parents and learn from them. I was lucky that my parents liked to read and encouraged me to read, but my friends didn't have the same exposure that I did and never liked to read books.
Synthetic7346··on How to get your first customers [video]
It's not you, security is indeed a hard sell (coming from the other side, as security engineer trying to push for adoption of solutions). There's some products like Wiz that you don't really need to push hard for, but everything else seems like a struggle

Synthetic7346··on Green card seekers must leave U.S. to apply, Trump administration says
It does sound appealing to a small group, if you're part of that group then you'd be all in. For the rest of us, not so much.

How so?
Synthetic7346··on We're testing new ad formats in Search and expanding our Direct Offers pilot

Synthetic7346··on AI is making me dumb
This looks pretty cool, but doesn't it reduce velocity? If CTOs want more code shipped faster, this might slow things down
Synthetic7346··on The Upper Middle Class Trap
I also take public transportation into work because parking is expensive and work pays for a commuter card. But for literally everything else I have to drive, even to get to public transportation. It does feel like a upper middle class privilege. If I were poorer I'd be renting close to work to save
Synthetic7346··on The Upper Middle Class Trap

We need more humor in the world
Synthetic7346··on We need a federation of forges
Switch platforms to what?
Synthetic7346··on Three constraints before I build anything
It would have been great if the author could have provided a complete example of the constraints in action, I'm kinda lost on how the third one would look in practice
Synthetic7346··on Android now stops you sharing your location in photos
Well Microsoft actually did attach metadata to word files, and it led to the arrest of a serial killer. Not saying they should do it, just found it funny that you picked the one example that did actually happen.

Synthetic7346··on Claude Code Found a Linux Vulnerability Hidden for 23 Years
But companies don't have to bear the cost of raising a human from birth, or training them. They only pay the cost of hiring them, and that includes cost of maintenence.

Add to that the fact that we can't blindly trust LLM output just yet, so we need a mearbag to review it.

LLM will always be more expensive than human +LLM, until we're at a stage where we can remove the human from the loop
