I gave one quote that is an example of the lack of thought, here’s another, “by spending millions of dollars on research into manipulating the human brain. But while the science never exactly panned out, residual…
The author seems not merely uninformed but a mix of unaware and unconcerned that they don’t know what they’re talking about. No discussion of hypnosis, Stockholm syndrome, and a general vibe that psychology is like not…
Monks are doing it on easy mode. They have nothing to anger them, zero triggers. It’s the whole point of hermeticism. Remove all sources of stress. Desire nothing. Of course they aren’t angry, they have nothing; nothing…
The world is nothing but edge cases. Expressing anger requires cooperation. If someone doesn’t want to listen, and you express anger at them anyway, is it not abuse?
Weird, I feel like I read the opposite thing just last night; that historically, prior quakes didn’t cause tsmc to slow production significantly. Because earthquakes are expected there are safeguards in place.
Not in the Bay Area. Or manhattan. City living is for the wealthy. Working folks live in cheaper places like East Palo Alto.
“AI will undermine trust that applicants know what they're doing?” Yes. Is that not obvious? It’s already a major problem in educational settings. I’ve seen video of people using it for job interviews. Have you been…
Hacker news is a place for intellectual curiosity, not ideological cliche.
“The only lasting fix for technical debt is for management to empower the IT side of an organization to start saying no to all the requests for shiny new things, and focus on making what an organization already has more…
I’m finding twitter (now x) is rapidly replacing YouTube in direct proportion to YouTube’s increasing suckifucation. At least for new content. Mostly I use YouTube for old content that is or should be in the public…
From the anecdotes I hear, it seems dubious from an ethical standpoint because the assertion is almost always that a person cannot think clearly due to add, so they need meds. But how can they consent to taking those…
Thanks. Yeah I guess I was thinking more about the content/research/advocacy that they themselves produce. The article you link is their news aggregator (kff health news) reposting a Sacramento Bee news article. Anyway,…

Seems ironic that Kaiser is banging on about the horrors of healthcare monopolies. Are they not themselves a giant healthcare monopoly that just happens to operate in a wealthier geographic area?
Sinusitis has odontogenic origins like 20% of the time iirc. I suspect a lot of heart disease results from the bifurcation of dental from general practice, eg periodontal disease being seen as a dental problem not a…
I wonder if the 23% were largely bots? If so that may be why the experience feels better despite the metrics? (The people I follow, Paul Graham and others, seem as active now as before. Maybe daily active users isn’t a…
That was one of my first uh oh moments with gpt. Getting code that clearly had untestable/unreadable regexen, which given the source must have meant the regex were gpt generated. So much is going to go wrong, and soon.
The language changes, but more importantly students backgrounds and facility with the English language changes. Not that dumbing down the text or replacing old timey words should cost much, but cost disease and all that.
“pretty sure the biggest problem with social media is the staggering number of people spreading disinformation and lies” I’m 100% sure you are wrong about that.
They should just allow PG&E to merge with Comcast. All these problems would be solved by the cpuc. Why don’t the political partisans want easy answers like that?
I’m saying the notion that China doesn’t regulate is ridiculous. If it is true that America leads rather than produces, it is precisely because it has embraced regulation to protect workers and groundwater.
China can regulate more effectively than the EU. They have actual concentration camps. Look at Jack Ma. The EU has cookie banners. That’s not regulation, it’s a speed bump. Consider that the US cannot manufacture things…
I’m not saying don’t scan code for vulnerabilities, I’m saying GitHub shouldn’t be the place that the scanning happens. A good place would be where the code is getting compiled /executed.
So just kill the old people then?
Also YouTube, but the bot comments are all backdated to appear older.
