He’ll push to safeguard people from AI but not safeguard people from fentanyl dealers. Got it.

“ Once a recording is made, it will be submitted to L.A. Department of Transportation where a human will assess whether a ticket should be issued.”

I’m seeing too many comments jumping to conclusions before reading this paragraph. A human will check the footage and make a final call

I had this same thought before Y2K. All the hype around it I wondered if there’s tech stashed away somewhere safe and out of reach from global catastrophes like EMPs or other types of world events. I can guarantee governments have tech stashed somewhere on earth or in space. It’s the most logical way to ensure in an event like that, that those governments can restart and be ahead of everyone else in that event.

I’d like to pick the brains here on HN.

I’m looking to do something like autoinstall for my office but is there an easier way have my employees do their own thumb drive (remote users) and get the config they need from me? I’m looking for an MDM Intune like enrollment that’s easier and configured it a certain way. I’m not in a position to use and manage Puppet.

I have me and Mac and haven’t seen this issue.

I feel like these random behind the scenes issues happen a month or two before WWDC to give Apple the foundation they need to announce new services.

I had read Apple is switching the name AppleID to be Apple Account or something similar at WWDC. Me thinks they are quietly pushing code that somehow is causing this for people.

Maybe it’s an age of account issue or some other commonality.

I signed up for an at me account twenty years ago and still use that as my living and haven’t had issues. Maybe icloud.com users?

Nobody will use it. A majority of the demographic see it as a Washington disaster Trump stopped but Biden turned the construction back on.

Everyone owns a car and carpooling is trivial. Most homes have one car per adult.

There’s nothing of interest between Merced and Bakersfield. These were towns that grew from the old 99 freeway from Sacramento to Bakersfield and then on to LA.

When they stopped supporting third party apps I gave up. For years they tried to monetize and never came up with a solid plan. They decided to go corporate and wall off user choice if you wanted convenience or simplicity. You were locked into their crappy app.

Reddit is already Digg 4.0. I have zero interest in going back to their site.

I gave up over a year ago. Best decision ever. It’s just garbage now that gets posted.

My state has a huge political problem right now with the state going unchecked. It’s really hard to push back ridiculous bills like this because the Dems control everything. The way these asinine bills get killed is public pressure, lawsuits, or getting signatures to put out to a state vote.

The people in Sacramento do not represent the state population. The people in Sacramento are using the state as a petri dish for other progressives in other states to copy the model if bills work out.

My family still gets the Sunday paper. It’s now as big enough you can roll it up and wrap your hand around it and touch your middle finger to thumb. Crazy that ten years ago it was the size of a football. Now it barely has anything in it.

Meta has the worst reporting system and I may have touched on it here before.

I was flipping through IG and was shown Aaron Bushnell’s full video. I reported it through the app and a little while later my case was updated. It said the video meets community guidelines and was left up.

I can imagine the same reporting system not legitimately taking down posts of drug sales, prostitution, and anything else illegal. I have a hunch they use some sort of automated process of scanning videos or pictures and go off of that.

I’ll also add I’ve been shown videos of dead bodies in the trenches of Ukraine, reported those, and they say that the videos don’t violate their guidelines.

My understanding is conspiracy people want to know if it was an alphabet agency that developed bitcoin to push a new world order of cashless currency. Or a new way to move money around anonymously and make it easier for governments and their agencies to stay anonymous.

For those looking for dumb TVs since Vizio sort of was a last holdout (although I’m reading they’ve recently become more garbage like), may I suggest the commercial kiosk versions of popular brands? I’ve found that you pay a little more but they don’t have the crappy OS installed and it’s just a dumb TV. You’re paying more to remove the ad experience manufacturers want you to use hence the price tradeoff.

There are more signs than we are being led to believe that something is coming.

For example, Egypt has decided to ditch the US dollar and join BRICS.

It’s a matter of time before things catch up with our economy.

I have multiple friends in the Bay Area regretting getting an EV. Broken chargers, power outages, and waiti no in lines seems to the the main complaint.

I also just read the federal government is relaxing rules to give infrastructure and manufacturers to catch up

Didn’t Cuba have a vaccine for lung cancer? I seem to recall seeing one in a documentary (maybe a Michael Moore film?)

> Governments have successfully addressed housing shortages through publicly developed housing in places like Vienna, Finland, and Singapore in the past, but these examples have typically inspired little attention in the US

Those countries demographics are way different than the US for affordable housing. It’s comparing apples and tennis balls.

All the people claiming this happened are level 1 posters so I’d take it with a grain of salt at this point.

California is doing the same thing too. Take the poor forest management and add trees being killed by a foreign beetle to the mix, and you have powder keg every summer waiting to go off.

Take it for what it’s worth

Genuine question.

I went past the Mozilla office in SF the other day on the Embarcadero. Looks like they closed up shop there. Did they move or focus on being all remote?

Maybe it would have been better to let him go to Twitter if this article holds any truth: https://www.businessinsider.com/google-shakeup-theory-sundar...

I’ll say that ever since he became CEO the company hasn’t innovated that much. A lot of services get propped up with fanfare then get cut out of the blue. The Google Graveyard seems to have grown a lot with him around.

Here’s something I don’t understand.

I see numerous cases of juveniles committing heinous property and safety crimes in California and the media always says names withheld because they’re juveniles. However why is this person’s name released?

Genuine question because I feel I’m maybe missing something.

I was an early adopter of 23andMe way back when they started. Before the privacy concerns. Before we had to worry about password uniqueness.

I didn’t renew my services with them. 1) I didn’t gain any value out of it, 2) their consistent blame of users that used recycled password for their breach.

I use ancestry.com as I’m working on dual citizenship with my family’s home country and find it worth the value. I was able to trace my family back through the Colonial Revolution all the way to the 1500s in Germany. That’s worth my money. Not 23andMe.

As a patient it benefitted me a month ago.

I was looking to get Ozempic through a different medical provider. They were offering a discount at the end of 2023 before rates go up in 2024. So in a rush before the end of 2023 I was able to log into One Medical and get a copy of my lab work and medical records from them within 10 minutes. Sign into my account and export the records and lab work and send them to my new provider.

I was impressed I didn’t have to jump through a ton of hoops to get the info I need to get the medicine.

And actually the first Facebook building was a block away above the Chinese restaurant with the woman with six fingers. There was a documentary on Sky about Zuck that shows footage from it. The 156 office was the second office.

The HP 1501 Page Mill building is where Facebook went from nine small offices in downtown PA to their first actual campus. The neighbors were furious because of all the traffic they were about to get so the city implemented their two hour parking restrictions nearby. After FB moved to Menlo Park (one of Sun’s old campuses), the 1501 building was demolished and turned into housing.

CrowdStrike also has an ARM version now. I recall reaching out to their support back when Apple M1 chips were out and finally get Windows 11 ARM virtualized and asking if they planned on an ARM client. At the time there was no demand but yes, it seems like ARM on Windows is headed in the right direction.

Can’t resist the urge to think Microsoft has their own silicon in the works.

Some Macs I’ve owned or used that were unique design:

- 20th Anniversary Mac

- Apple TV (it was an LC 575 with tuner card and black)

- The molar G3 Mac for schools

- The eMate 300 (even though that ran Newton)
