If GM wants to drop CarPlay and force me to use their broken laggy garbage I just won't buy their car same goes for Tesla. Not paying a subscription fee for GPS.

There is no legal right to gun ownership in Australia.

Wait until you hear about the nanoplastics found in rainwater

If you’re not decrypting the files yourself then they could be meddled with or snooped on, I’m not sure which is worse…

This whole “the files would fly by really quickly” line is not reassuring as surely this means the whole scraping/thieving thing could be automated.

Candles are horrifying for indoor air quality, why would anyone use them?

Even with an electron microscope you wouldn't extract a root key it would just be a device key which they would then ban.

Op is not talking about real poverty here, these are AI tech workers whose skills are in high demand.

Imagine if businesses could just issue you a legal tender "change bill" that's loaded with x amount of change via RFID or something... maybe one time loadable bills that get stamped with the amount so you know how much it's worth without having to revalidate it on the app.

Phones could just pop-up the validated amount when you bring the bill close. Would be cheaper and better than coins. Heck why aren't we able to validate all bills like that?

Oh right this would require a microprocessor... oh well.

The idea of "content" predates YouTube and the internet.

When we're talking about algorithmic ranking of content the term content probably arose from the SEO era of the 2000's when the mantra "content is king" took off (it was coined by Bill Gates in the 90's).

This method fails with aluminum baking sheets and other cookware.

The costs are known, the competition is high, the margins are low. You still have to deal with support/abuse. There is no real “high volume customer”.

Nice size, rigid, satisfying spring action, convenient reading and writing noises.

Was wondering when they'd finally shut that box down, I was keeping it on just to troll them.

Look up Bhramari Pranayama. Humming directly increases nitric oxide levels.

Musk has been obsessed with this domain he owns for decades now. PayPal started as x.com, he's reliving his glory days.

Sounds exactly like the Government of Canada to me.

I think you can still consider it kosher regardless, unless you're trying to sell it

Right, non-negligible. And if those mass-consumers of electricity switch to clean energy it would be great. But a lot of dirty energy is used for heating homes in colder regions on an individual basis.

Nothing really matters due to the amount of coal being burned in places like China. Your vein efforts to reduce your personal footprint in North America are largely pointless.

Edit: Lots of coal defenders in here. It is absolutely ridiculous to be burning coal in 2023. But hey, perhaps the US could focus on reducing its own coal usage. Go nuclear! My point is that your trip around the world is a drop in the bucket.

I wonder why we don't see the same thing on academic papers. Surely the people writing those papers are also affected by politics.

But somehow it is acceptable for programming languages.

This video is a pretty great overview: https://youtu.be/V0zCf4Yup34

Bill Gates drinks it every day it can't possibly be bad for you. At least that's what I tell myself.

Cool idea. It seems like there is some intrinsic motivation when doing this at a workplace that would be missing with random strangers.

This does not reflect the reality of business bank accounts in Canada.

When you have treasury access you can wire as much money as you want practically instantly just like with SVB. I bank with one of the big 5.

Nothing is stopping you from going into your bank and wiring money away it's just cash that they don't want to give out without multi-day delays.

This would be really “fun” to scale with all the synchronous work going on. You guys definitely picked one of the hardest businesses to be in given the ungodly number of service providers you interface with!

Very impressive.
