moi2388··on Amazon’s “digital pacifier” for toddlers
True, but them letting their kid use a screen once when you happen to see it is in no way an indication of bad parenting.
moi2388··on Amazon’s “digital pacifier” for toddlers
Nothing feeds imagination more than boredom. Kids should get bored much more often; they’ll come up with some very creative play afterward.
moi2388··on Birdwatching rewires the brain and slows cognitive decline
How many of these people before simply paused the movie to get a snack or converse a bit?
moi2388··on Europe's summer heat wave killed more han 50k people in urban areas
Isn’t most of it old people who forget to drink though?

Perhaps nursing homes should nurse, and ensure people drink enough?

moi2388··on Removing Next.js Got My Blog to 100 on Every Lighthouse Category
Npm? It’s just the package manager. You can use pnpm or yarn or bun if you like?
moi2388··on eMudhra ignored Mozilla Root investigation deadline; blames social media
If you ever dealt with indian software companies you would also know it to be an accurate statement, however
moi2388··on Dutch National Cyber Security Center is Offline because it uses PHP
Right.. php sites and Wordpress never had security issues before AI. Totally fine ecosystem to be in.

He means that 3 is not between 0 and 1, which it really isn’t.
moi2388··on Developers Are Using AI to Strip Ads and Tracking from Smart TVs
No because the units sold line goes up but the revenue per device goes down so they will look at ways to extract more money per unit, like ads
moi2388··on Anthropic's proposed AI safety bill only kicks in if 50 deaths or $1B in damages
All of them. So that next time each of them will take responsibility and ask how they can prevent this from happening.
moi2388··on Dogs seem to agree with humans that 'bouba' is round and 'kiki' is spiky
When I studied psychology 20 years ago we had a class which covered this, and at least then there were studies indeed showing these associations are exactly due to these phonetic identifiers.
moi2388··on New Apple TV 4K
No apps which allow torrents, Stremio, omni, fusion, kodi..

Yes it is true. Good luck streaming.

Exactly what I wanted. A biodegradable building. I’m making mine out of compost!
moi2388··on Woman who rescued injured crow keeps getting 'thank-you gifts' from birds [video]
Unfortunately that was a flawed study. They paired trained chimps with people who saw the task for the first time.

It was later repeated, and if given the same training, humans still outperform chimps in this task.

moi2388··on Apple's new 'Switch to Safari' campaign details why you should ditch Chrome
Yes.
moi2388··on Scientists wonder: Is my AI stealing my ideas?
Tax payers wonder: are scientists stealing my money to patent tax funded research?
moi2388··on New Apple TV 4K
Apple removed all streaming apps from the Apple TV platform, so for new users: Apple TV is all but useless now.
moi2388··on Hackers activate automatic defrosting in supermarket fridges across Europe
The same happened to a major Dutch supermarket chain.

Seems a coordinated attack, perhaps not coincidentally on the day the US supreme NATO commander gave a speech about the defence against (hybrid) attacks.

moi2388··on Deloitte falsified documents to evade tax on Abramovich's wealth
Not to be too forward, but whenever a company touches Cyprus we all know full well the only reasons are tax evasion or fraud.
moi2388··on Updated Google Maps shows destruction of the city of Rafah
After what Palestinians did in Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt and Israel perhaps not out of the blue, eh?
moi2388··on Computers Cannot Make Decisions
No, but removing the internet cable really isn’t that difficult
moi2388··on Apple proposes to take a 15% cut of purchases made outside the App Store
You mean VAT?
moi2388··on Private prisons announce $1.4B in revenue as immigration detentions climb
Since private prisons make a profit instead of costing millions, you can actually build more of them.

With the added benefit of not costing the taxpayer as much.

moi2388··on Private prisons announce $1.4B in revenue as immigration detentions climb
Yes. Prisons are overcrowded, criminals are released earlier or not put in prison at all, and judges punish lower because prisons are too full.
moi2388··on Private prisons announce $1.4B in revenue as immigration detentions climb
Does it? The alternative is non-profit incarceration/detention, in which the incentive is to not put people in prison, leading to more crime, lower trust and more victims.
moi2388··on Now is the time to give LLMs access to the ACM digital library
You mean the knowledge you gathered with public grants, with a public paid salary, yet don’t want to make freely available to the public?

Yeah, too bad

moi2388··on Our position on open-weights models
China is simply undercutting again, by copying and subsidising, to ensure another industry in the west fails.

Just like batteries, the automotive industry and in fact most machining.

We really ought to boycott Chinese products from stolen tech and patents from entering our markets

moi2388··on Blade Runner 2099 exclusive first look at the replicant uprising
Ugh. No thank you. And Hunter Schafer is an immediate no.
moi2388··on EU fines Google €890M for competition breaches over search and apps
India exports small amounts to Nepal and Bhutan, but more importantly already resells Russian oil and gas.

So it’s a nice circumvention for the EU if they were to require one.

moi2388··on EU fines Google €890M for competition breaches over search and apps
At the beginning of 2025, the US was only supplying 20% of the military aid to ukraine.

After that it has practically completely dried up. Ukraine and the EU are already producing themselves.

This is a big long term loss to the US.

Also if US makes their LNG unaffordable the EU will simply switch to countries like India.

Who exactly is the US going to still sell to?
