The intel Frameworks have been plagued by battery drain issues and waking up when being stored in bags or overnight, it's possibly the most complained about issue in the support forum.

Inside of the Appstore on iOS

I've been using Quora's Poe. There's a universal iOS and Mac OS app as well as a web interface all synced, also has other AIs other than ChatGPT to quickly switch and compare outputs. I actually find that ChatGPT isn't the most useful for giving me a lot of my answers.

Poe also has a community feature so you can share and see each others queries and AI responses and share links to non Poe users.

Haven't found any other app that isn't just a simple chat window with zero other features other than Poe, would love to try others that add value over OpenAI's web interface.

If people can not protect or make a living from their work then they lose some of the motivation to create, many will stop producing work altogether.

Interestingly, AI had to steal creators work to exist and did so without permission. AI in its current conception is cannibalising its own source material and risks being regulated out of existence.

Had OpenAI et all acted responsible and within copyright law, they would have only used free use material. Instead they scraped social media and creator websites on the basis that if it was online it's 'fair use'.

People have a right to protect their work.

I expect to see many lawsuits brought against AI companies in the next coming years.

This is a flaw with current AI in general. How can you trust anything it produces?

You either have to trust it implicitly, or verify the information manually, which you then have to weigh whether using the AI was worth it in the first place.

Depends on your use case and how precise and accurate the answer needs to be I suppose.

They're commodities. People trade in commodities millions of times a day, thats what you're describing. But unless it's possible to cash out into fiat they are completely worthless.

It's sad to see what has happened to crypto. So many scams and people using it as an investment opportunity. It will obviously never be able to replace fiat in it's current conception.

Do I have a right to know who prepared my sandwich from the deli?

How about if the sandwich gives me food poisoning and I lose several days of work?

This feels like govs grandstanding and trying to show they are regulating and putting rules in place without having any clue on how to do so and coming to completely the wrong conclusions on where the threat is.

After using Mastadon for a little over 3 months now I am more sure than ever that it will not and can not replace Twitter. Specifically for your every day, normal non techie user.

The decentralised model just isn't user friendly enough. It's confusing and too circle jerky. It's difficult to find someone, hell even just selecting a server to host your account is a pain.

It's definitely not a Twitter killer.

Much more eloquently composed response than mine.

We accept ads because in return we usually receive a product or service for free. It's an unwritten contract that society has accepted.

Spam on the other hand is nothing more than guerrilla advertisement. It's obnoxious. It serves no purpose other than to it's creator. It provides no benefit to end users or society.

Sounds kinda immoral if you ask me.

This has been everyones biggest fear with AI - that the content will be indistinguishable from that created by humans and that there is a rapid decline in trustworthy material online.

Personally I find it more worrying that this is exactly the type of conversation that is already taking place today in real life, between humans. Humans take advantage of each other every single day. When an AI is modelled on the language of humans then that same predatory language is in there waiting to be abused by another human (or corp) as you have exposed, just like every media and online platform is abused as much as possible today.

>Something similar will happen here. Today, recipes on Chatgpt are to the point. Tomorrow, they might start adding affiliate links to the ingredients. A year from now, the experience won't be any better than what you currently have on Google.

Correct me if I've misinterpreted your comment but it appears you're suggesting that rather than use something that is a superior product in more than one factor, you're advocating for using a product that is terrible in many factors just because... The superior product might get worse... Eventually...

Blind loyalty to a corporation no matter how terrible they make my experience and abuse my trust isn't really something I'm desperate to cling on to. There is a thirst for ChatGPT for a reason. Nothing is stopping OpenAI from pulling all the same anti-consumer behaviour that Google pulls today, but then the field is wide open for someone to come along and pull a ChatGPT on them, and the cycle continues.

Opiod abuse is no joke and they are about as addictive as prescription drugs get, and yet the abuse rate is something like 50% in developed Western countries (Abuse ranging from taking them slightly longer than you're supposed to, to taking more than your prescribed dose all the way to crushing and injecting). There are many millions of people who take opiods and don't get addicted or abuse them in any negatively impactful way.

Your comment is based on a personal bias and in no way based on medical fact. There are many types of pain that only opiods can treat. We absolutely need more options that are as powerful and less addictive.

The mechanism for addiction is well understood, but what we don't understand is why some people can take opiods, even extremely powerful ones and don't become drug fiends.

I am sitting here with two 250ml bottles of Morphine next to my bed, there is nothing stopping me from drinking it all. I know how it makes me feel, I know it eases my depression, removes my pain, clears my mind and calms my anxiety, I have restful sleep when I take it right before bed and yet I have never taken it when I didn't need to, never increased the dose, in fact I often take a lower dose than prescribed and sometimes don't take it as scheduled and subject myself to some of the pain until it reaches a point where I require relief, my goal is not to completely escape all pain, all the time, I like to remind myself that i am in control and that I'm not afraid of the pain and that experiencing 'some' pain is not a bad thing. However, I have seen all the documentaries and dramatisations and accounts of people who do the complete opposite. Perhaps it's because I have taken Ritalin for most of my life and am used to the sensations of cravings, perhaps it's because I don't drink alcohol and don't smoke, I do not have any addictive tendencies whatsoever (unless we're talking about chocolate!), maybe it's genetics, maybe it's socioeconomic, but for sure, for me in any case opioids have vastly and dramatically improved my quality of life and I'm grateful that we have such drugs available. Obviously there is work to be done on education, monitoring and support. I wonder if the opioid crisis is so bad in the US because of the private system and lack of coordinated care between specialists and clinics as well as lax pharmacy monitoring.

It does block Youtube ads but very poorly. Sometimes the ad plays but a refresh immediately removes it, other times it can take multiple refreshes. It's not perfect like it is when i use Firefox or Opera so I stick to Yputube on those and Safari for general browsing.

Sidenote: Also Gmail is insaaaaaaaaaanely slow on Safari and a lot of sites just don't format well or ad blockers completely break the site. Safari is by far the worst browser on Mac for site compatibility and also extension selection but I use it for better battery life when not plugged in.

The few companies I've worked at, by 5 years the company either has sold up and everyone was replaced / let go, maybe a select few get to stay out of dozens - the vast majority lose out and were exploited or the company goes on a hiring spree and there aren't pay raises or bonuses because company growth is valued over employee satisfaction. Feels like you're talking about the exception rather than the rule or perhaps the tech industry 10+ years ago but certainly not today.

Are there any 13" laptops on the market with more than 4 ports? None that come to my mind. My macbook air has only 2 x USB C and I've never come across a situation where I needed more. For a 13" 4 ports is more than most people require and it wouldn't make sense for a small start up to only target extremely niche use cases.

That would be an extremely niche use case. Can't imagine any scenario needing more than 2-3 x USB A ports outdoors. In any case it would make much more sense to use a dock.

> I don't understand how secretive salaries benefit anyone other than parties trying to get away with paying lower.

Because they don't. This Bill will be a major win for all employees and will force employers to increase benefits whether financial or otherwise. The day this Bill is enacted and companies publish ranges, you as an existing employee will know where you sit on that range and whether you're undervalued. This Bill will be the single biggest revolution in workers welfare and living standards since legally required paid holiday or maternity leave. It's about time.

Thats just your opinion. But now when anybody thinks of a website that can help them with writing documents, especially if English isn't their native language, there is exactly one website that comes to everyones minds. In fact, I don't know of a single competitor to mind, that's pretty effective marketing if you ask me.

Tried to find more about this but can't find anything, do you have a link please

I have never seen so much false narrative, misunderstanding, speculation and conspiracy rabbit holes in a HN post.

Wild to see so many people conjecturing about one of the most scrutinised and researched VPN providers in the world, whose source code is now available for all to see and not a single person, here or on Reddit has been able to flag any code of concern and the result is just pure conspiracy with zero evidence.

What you're referring to is the Youtubers own lack of understanding on what a VPN can and can't do. NordVPN provide some talking points but I myself have seen some Youtubers stumble through and add in some wild claims that just aren't true. That's still on Nord for not vetting and correcting them and this is also what you get when you try to shill something to your community that you have no expertise on.

Used NordVPN for 3 or so years and I have been sharing my Nord and Netflix account with several different people on and off over the years, none of us have ever had an issue streaming Netflix. Amazon Prime and some other streaming services, yes, but oddly not Netflix. However my current gf often will get interrupted in the middle of streaming while using ExpressVPN so she just switches over to Nord and issue solved.
