It is my opinion that these sorts of statements are devoid of value and don’t contribute to the conversation. Good for Reddit. My grandpap always said the same of unions. Great if you’re in them. Terrible if not. I have…
This all comes down to one phrase I’ve grown to hate. “It must be measurable”. Maximizing revenue over the next 12 months is measurable. Creating an enduring product that will slowly grow revenue and be around forever…

Go to college and get an education so you ~~can make a good living~~ have the opportunity to work more hours. I understand this should hopefully help low wage earners that are taken advantage of. That’s great. The US,…
I’ve never heard this story but it made me think of this old XKCD[0]. [0]: https://xkcd.com/1105/
Why do we (the US) insist on doing everything our own way? And usually worse. The sentiment behind loan forgiveness is great but it doesn’t address any of the core problems. This will only happen again. Many other first…
Tangentially related but I saw some similar comments in the original thread [0] so hopefully this is alright. How does one move to Europe? Or how does one begin the process? I’m an average engineer and only speak…
I’m so tired of these culture wars. The whole censorship of the original emoji was incredibly pointless and stupid. Now we have to rehash this all over again and I’ll have to hear about it. And this time, with Elon…
The original title is more clear: The AI-focused COPIED Act would make removing digital watermarks illegal. I thought the headline was indicating it would be illegal to remove watermarks from content generated by LLMs.
Reflectacles[0] claims to do this. I haven’t tried them but I do keep the page bookmarked for someday. Certainly not as low key as something “invisible” like makeup, but I can see them being useful. If they work. [0]:…

These days I explicitly go out of my way to find and run native programs. Sure they usually require a purchase but (1) devs need to eat too (2) the software is usually higher quality and (3) it’s ultimately cheaper than…
Looks like this can be done with Shortcuts.app on iOS.
Ya I have hardware and already self-host some services.
It really takes effort to scrub oneself of big-tech. I don’t know how non-HN-types are supposed to do it. My weak point has been Apple Photos. It “just works” for me and I really appreciate that it does all processing…

Thank you for this. I, alongside seemingly everyone else, get frustrated that the OS doesn’t have more complex features. But for most of our moms, it’s probably better for them. The rest of us have macOS, Linux, etc.
Apple is primarily a hardware company. Privacy claims aside, on-device gives Apple a reason to keep making, improving, and selling hardware. I also don’t think the GDPR consent is a good measure. Those suck to opt out…
