For some reason I read this in James Burke's voice and I could swear I was teleported back to the 80's watching a hitherto unseen episode of Connections. Interesting stuff.

I think it would be fine if more people used "add color to". I think it's a great turn of phrase. "Load bearing", not so much. Ick.
The idiom "added color to" as an expression of adding detail or nuance to something goes back much further than the AI era. I've certainly used it at various times in my career spanning 4 decades now.
Sorry. I meant, is there any way to block stories on HN that link to Twitter posts?
Won't be reading any twitter post on HN. Is there a convenient way to block them?
I use seccomp filters on linux in my AI sandbox.
Not if they designed the algorithm right.

You can insist otherwise, but I suspect that so long as the government continues to ignore people's basic need for privacy, things will continue to get broken.
Social contract also includes the expectation that, over all, businesses work for the benefit of society, not its detriment.
In the controversy over AI and intellectual property rights, the notion of asymmetrical enforcement of those rights is presently an active and dynamic rhetorical position. If you suppress responses espousing that…
I feel the exact opposite. I feel that the documents I've collected but only lightly recall form an extension of my mind. I routinely collect electronic copies of technical documentation and white papers which I broadly…
Did you miss the 'prepare' in the title?
Well, a large swath of both sides are wrong in that they insist theirs is the only valid perspective.

I don't see much confusion
People have settled on the term DSL to identify those languages whose domains are highly constrained as compared to more general purpose or broad domain languages. This usage exists whether or not you think the term…

Lol, no. We discourage her from using the computer because she's been scammed* so many times. Generally speaking AI is not uniformly perceived as this awe inspiring boon to those of her generation. Often it invokes fear…

Ex-googler here as well. I'm not sure the distortion was worse outside of the core business. In the peripheral businesses (if one can call them businesses), I think you had more of an opportunity to ponder the larger…
You mean as a distraction from the point being made?
I said "harkens". Of course that structure never appeared on a punched card, and was designed with the unix block size in mind.
