Agreed, and I think following flowchart-type logic is within today's AI capabilities. This thread is full of people getting inaccurate responses from humans. I think when it comes to accuracy, a well-trained LLM likely beats the status quo of high-churn low-paid employees following a rote diagram.

Of course there should always be a way to reach a human, a senior agent with actual knowledge that can be applied in subjective ways to solve more complex problems.

Few front-line agents have deep knowledge about their company's products or services. They trace their finger through some branches on a flowchart then dictate from a knowledgebase.

He offloaded a ton of TSLA to finance the twitter deal, reducing his ownership from 22% to 13%. Now he wants to dilute shares to claw back control.

Twitter has undoubtedly been a distraction.

Why do you assume their use of the word "unsafe" was limited to awkwardness?

There is a growing group of people willing to confront anyone in public that is transgender, with a smaller (yet still growing) group who are emboldened enough to inflict physical harm.

As far as data centers go, it's beautiful. Like something you'd see in a Mission Impossible heist.

"Everything on a woman's resume is doubted because it may have been due to affirmative action."

Do we doubt men's resumes because they could have been a legacy admission, or hired by a buddy from school?

I like that Teams added the option to hide your self-view. Even if you don't focus on it, just having a slightly delayed mirror copy of yourself in the corner of the screen is mildly distracting. It feels more natural talking to a group of people that doesn't include yourself.

That's some off-putting content to show new users. I suspect they're an ideologically driven platform?

*edit, their press release section removes all doubt.

Is there any data that suggests such a loaded term is appropriate? It seems more likely that people were taking advantage of the new economic benefits of remote work.

Even if you never share anything, just the thought process that goes into the ordering of the blocks and elements on the page force you to think about the larger structure and dependencies. It's incredibly helpful.

KSA used Pegasus to spy on and murder an american journalist. They're also a major shareholder of twitter.

Isn't that exactly what Amazon is doing?

How is that different from Walmart selling their Great Value store brand? They see what products sell well then formulate their own cheaper alternative, maybe even giving their product better shelf placement.

Every national grocer does this. It seems to be a pretty close analog yet nobody bats an eye at the practice.

>"This is a deeply flawed article based on a poorly designed experiment and reflects significant author bias in the interpretation of the results,” wrote Washington State University horticultural physiologist Linda Chalker-Scott in a blog post earlier this year.

For most, it's a community more than a product.

A lot of people see the rebranding similar to a billionaire buying their town and renaming it.

Pithy quotes don't drive policy, science does. We can preach tough love as much as we want but it doesn't change the physical reality of adolescent brain morphometry.

Extreme political polarization is happening in democracies across the globe.

Metrics/KPIs/OKRs are how we align large organizations around complex outcomes.

Highly effective workers always see these measurements as a waste of time, but when you're trying to validate and steer the contributions of thousands of workers - with varying levels of skill, motivation, and accountability - you need a GPS to make sure you're still on the path.

While I think goals and metrics are necessary, I do agree that organizations tend to over-formalize the process. "The map is not the territory" etc.

At the beginning of the 20th century in the US, 3 in 4 workers were either laborers, farmers, miners, or household service workers. By the end of the century that number had fallen to 1 in 4.

Of course that wasn't a net loss, it was part a larger economic transformation that created more higher paying jobs.

If you read the underlying findings [1], there were two behavioral ethics studies with fabricated results. The first was conducted in 2012 and was supervised by Ariely.

I appreciate the specificity, especially on a forum of tech-inclined users and collapsible comments.

I was trying not to read too much into test submissions, but yeah. Those are some off-putting examples to use.

social search vs. reference search

That was one of my favorite things about Primephonic, they had human-recommended recordings of most pieces in common repertoire.

A quirk of HNs rule, post title must match article title. If nothing else it gets more people to RTA.

My understanding of US history is that almost all meaningful worker protections were fought for and seized by labor unions. Things like the 40 hour work week, paid leave, overtime pay, etc.

Out of curiosity what do you think they should do differently? They confirmed the subject's criminal activity immediately at the top of the article. Only after that do they talk about the definition problem, which you appear to agree with to some degree.

That snopes article is much more reasonable than you're making it out to be.
