So many websites do popups and it feels so anti-user. Maybe I get unusually annoyed, but I do not need a Gemini popup ad in Google Docs. Just let me do what I came to the website to do!
It's a feature offered in ChatGPT and other platforms, though probably gated behind paid subscriptions.
Getting opinionated replies about politics does feel less dangerous than the model shutting up completely when asked about past government atrocities. At least in the west we can freely discuss and criticize.
Another area where an American technology brand is losing to the Chinese alternative. Alongside EVs, drones, robot vacuums, solar panels.
I have been using Deepseek V4 Pro for personal projects and it has been great. I think the $20/mo GPT plan is still the strongest value, but only because you don’t have to pay API prices for tokens.
In 2024, the average American spent about $17,000 on taxes. Nearly $4000 of that went to the DoD, about $3500 went to interest on federal debt. I think it’s fun to think about it in this way. I personally spend hundreds…
I second this. I’ve been using it a lot (with OpenCode) for personal projects. It’s intelligent enough at a tiny fraction of the cost of Claude or Codex.
You’re basically so petrified of bricking prod and getting fired that you refuse to even start on your first ticket. The catastrophic outcome is low probability and not worth fretting over. Going out and risking…
Red is the obvious choice from a self-preservation perspective but not a moral one. You're seeing here in these comments that there are lots of blue pressers; they would all die. This creates a snowballing incentive to…
Red is optimal from a self preservation perspective but is also the antisocial option. Picking blue saves everyone.
It's also a country. Not sure what insisting we change our demonym accomplishes.
The problem isn’t the powers that be. A lot of regular homeowners fight new developments tooth and nail. And many blue states unfortunately give them a lot of tools to do so.
The difference is that public streets are public spaces. You necessarily have a limited expectation of privacy in public spaces. The government likewise already deploys cameras in public places to maintain a reasonable…
I actually touched on this in another comment below yours, using Asia as a specific example. Our crime rates are also much higher than those countries. But while our surveillance is not as widespread as other developed…
Our public surveillance is actually limited relative to other developed countries because it makes people here uncomfortable for cultural reasons. You’ll also note that our crime rates are pretty high, especially…
My confusion stems from the fact that mass surveillance is already pretty normal in major cities. Your face is on a dozen cameras anytime you walk through the grocery store. Your precise location is pinged off cell…
Colorado is having a record low snow season. It's been tough for skiing.
In a country with many huge companies selling oil, cigarettes, weapons, etc. there is no shortage of people willing to deal in morally questionable trades for money. I might even boldly suggest that Palantir is arguably…
> The goals and motivation for using these tools, and their broad allowance of access to what should be highly controlled data (or in some cases even not collected at all) is the problem ... focus on the policy…
You absolutely can download your photos, just not via command line like this project enables.
I like the inclusion of the graph at the end to compare progress. It would be cool to compare this directly to competing models (Claude, GPT, etc).
I didn’t pick up on the censorship issue. I just spent a few minutes trying to swipe type “kill myself” and found myself completely unable. I wonder if this is intentional. If so it feels like an embarrassing waste of…
A lot of politicians have tried to replicate Trump’s style with limited success. We could probably debate forever what it is about Trump that makes him unique. I think his crude and abrasive personality won people over;…
You aren't missing anything. This has been an increasingly popular criticism of Wikipedia. They are doing just fine financially.
Hopefully we see enough efficiency gains over time that this is true. The models I can run on my (expensive) local hardware are pretty terrible compared to the free models provided by Big LLM. I would hate to be chained…
