I am quite curious about what people hat so much about Spotify. I made some excursions the last few years to competitors like Tidal and Apple Music but I just found myself coming back because the Spotify mobile app experience (and desktop) was just plain better.

I wonder what gripes people have.

If the assumption is that they can be searched in parallel and it takes the same amount of tokens as doing it sequentially. What you would gain is a speed up.

I vaguely understand you argument with the context, however is that not solved by sum agents handing their results in to the planner (or a third agent) to run on them again? I'd assume that's what is happening anyway. Let me know if that's wrong

And to anyone who has ever used it, it appears more like opening smoothbrain. For a long time it was the only allowed model at work and even for basic cyber security questions it was sometimes completely useless.

I would not recommend it to anyone.

Except since getting my degree no one but my ego has ever cared for the grades i received (which weren't good btw). This is my European perspective. I don’t know how it is in the US.

Except you missed that part where they said > Premium

If you pay for it, you can expect to not be the product.

While the results are not unexpected i think the conclusion is questionable. Of course the recall for something you did not write will be lower, but to conclude from it, that this will impeded overall learning is in my opinion far fetched.

I think what we are seeing is that learning and education has not adapted to these new tools yet. Producing a string of words that counts as an essay has become easier. If this frees up a students time to do more sports or work on their science project that's a huge net positive even if for the essay it is net negative. The essay does not exist in a school vacuum.

The thing students might not understand is: their reduced recall will make them worse at the exam ... Well they will hopefully draw their own conclusion after first their failed exam.

I think the quantitative study is important but I think this qualitative interpretation is missing the point. Recall->Learning is a pretty terrible way to define learning. Reproducing is the lowest step on the ladder to mastery

Google intentionally dumbed down the chrome user agent to limit user fingerprint and encourage usage of their new method that all privacy advances see to despise.

The user agent now reported by most chrome installs on Android reports android 10,K

I have the pleasure of not getting useful info anymore at work when comparing user agents across devices.

I have had a similar experience after i shared my MacBook with my girlfriend for a while. Turned out even after uninstalling her cloud file sharing software thing, there were still over 100GB of cached files left on disk. MacOS didn't make the obvious identify or find in the storage overview.

I ended up finding it through a disk space visualizer that showed a large folder (the stolen 100GB) in some cache directory. I can highly recommend trying that out. MacOS' inbuilt tools are in my experience inadequate to find what is stealing your disk space (on top of applications being unable to clean up after themselves).

This is reads as if that is negative an unusual. One might think supporting copycats is bad but obviously a company cannot simply be copied and is more than just its product. While a product might be, you can still outclass your competitors with better engineering, or sourcing of materials or marketing.

You wonder if this is a telling story about YC or just one about the startup space in general.

Possible outcomes include:

1. There is little unique ideas going around. YC is truely and knowingly funding blatant copycats.

2. There is little unique ideas going around. Due to the large amount of duplicates, all accelerators invariably invest in mostly copycats.

3. There is unique ideas going around, they are just not popular with YC. This could have various reasons. I wonder what they might be

Engaging in legal dispute with Oracle seems like a risky endeavor. People joke about the company consisting from 90% legal department for a reason.

What would the plaintiff or the public stand to gain from Oracle relinquishing the trademark?

I think acting 'as if' is the safe option here but encouraging change for the better in someone willing to engage in dialog is still better than not doing it. Maybe you didn't intend to make a counterpoint, i just wanted to point that out.

Except they did blatantly violate the license of the code they stole and only fixed it after being called out.

Fulfilling your obligation to a society that brought you riches, however much risk you took and however much hard work vs luck that was, is not theft. Fueling that society, so that it can persist for your well-being is your obligation as a citizen.

If you fully play out your argument, the least wealthy and least successful deserve it the most to have their remaining wealth taken because they are not assuming any risk in this society.

I think that is a very destructive world view.

The difference between an untrained runner, a trained runner and n elite athlete are left completely unanalyzed. Given how seemingly varied for no apparent reason some of these points on the graph are and coming from an anecdotal perspective this analysis is not very useful, and probably even wrong.

Seemingly an elite athlete must have been tracked because almost nobody(considering the whole population) can run the given top-end pace for a sustained amount of time (More that 100metres).

I was hoping for more from the article, or at least that it was called 'calorically More efficient'.

How many companies do you think go under my sprinting to slow vs in the wrong direction?

I would love to hear an example where in business it came down to motivation of the companies workforce.

I suggest this video about the question of success: Luck or hard(-re in this case) work? https://youtu.be/3LopI4YeC4I

There is a GitHub repo[1] with a very limited list last time I checked. That the best I could fined in my degoogled time. The Techlore Youtube-Channel-Community (yes, I realise the irony) also seems like a reasonably healthy place to start. There is also a bunch of telegram groups with NoGoolag[2] at the center. I would not recommend for the 70:30 mix of conspiracy and tech support but they are at least technically very knowledgeabl, and sometimes helpful, even considering their almost 'religious' technical beliefs.
