Yep — on mainstream AI YouTube videos, I see a lot of comment replies accusing anyone of commenting with ai (if its a well weitten post, with punctuation). Others chiming in "ran through ai detector, says 37% human 63% air — BOT" etc

YT comments were never a good place, but it's interesting to see this shift now its hit the masses

And interesting that no ones commenting about the robotic AI voice over... Instead pointing finger's at each other like the spiderman meme.

Could it be, AOL ending dialup – marks the official end of the dotcom bubble? Which means the next one, whatever that may be... starts now?

Perhaps they're taking a leaf from nvidias book - influencers dunking on their bar charts gives a lot of free press coverage/mindshare

Debian? I noticed this too, switched from using LTS version to latest - much better. On arch, no FF issues at all.

Really feels like it could be an onion title.

Really that good? I've got back into using Cursor and if seems theyved u1

I've used vim to the stage that I not only know how to exit it, its muscle memory... And I still prefer nano. Its just better imo.

Some of the young team haven't seen a rotary phone before.. Using t9 typing must seem like encryption to them.

To add to this, I ran into a lot of issues too. And similar when using cursor... Until I started creating a mega list of rules for it to follow that attaches to the prompts. Then outputs improved (but fell off after the context window got too large). At that stage I then used a prompt to summarize, to continue with a new context.

Yes good idea - although it appears we would also have to account for the possibility of providers nerfing their models. I've read others also think models are being quantized after a while to cut costs.

I've got a working theory that models perform differently when used in different timezones... As in during US working hours they dont work as well due to high load. When used at 'offpeak' hours not only are they (obviously) snappier but the outputs appear to be a higher standard. Thought this for a while but now noticing with Claude4 [thinking] recently. Textbook case of anecdata of course though.

I agree most are flawed. I read one (I think from Sweden perhaps) that had a longer timeline and actually used some better methodology than others which seemed more insightful.

But as others say, at the end of the day if everyone has an extra $1000 a month, there will be groups such as landlords trying to jack up prices.

To counter other commenters on this issue - we do have price controls on things such as milk, bread etc and it does 'work' to some degree. In the landlords example above - a smart gov would implement an algorithm for 'greed' and fine/tax offenders and put that money into the UBI cash reserves.

I think UBI as a real possibility needs to be taken seriously. The level of AI has accelerated in such a short timeframe that (imo) we're starting to see the knock on effects into society. This is just in tech for now - thousands applicants for positions, and no one really needing to hire juniors as Claude et al easily replace the tasks they do.

Once other industries realize that they can replace a lot of tasks with ai, we'll see a gradual shortage of jobs for unskilled admin jobs (not manual labour... Yet)

There's a lot of shouting about AGI but the current LLM landscape effects are slowly happening around us right now. UBI studies should be taken more seriously and at a larger scale.

What about the paper, ink, labour involved? Why not slip $10 into envelope instead?

These are not required for self employed (nor is VAT registration up until certain revenue, as gp points out). However given nature of business and potential liability, seems LTD company should be the route to take.

I didn't see any request for a return envelope or stamp. Author decided to include them (unless I missed something).

I think quoting that part alone, didn't make it clear I was referring to the whole article.

...... "Oh Well."

May have been more apt.

Is eBay really anyones first thought when looking for a (non-collector) stamp to (actually) mail?

Perhaps he should have picked up a few £1 coins on eBay, use them to purchase some stamps from the post office?...

After a few weeks of waiting, I eventually received the ‘African Daisy global forever vert pair’ stamp which was round! I should have noticed that the seller sent me the item using stamps at a much lower denomination that those I had ordered. Oh well.

Wild that so many commenters don't see the satire dripping from the post. Is it just a UK thing to never take things at face value?

Young bobby tables at it again

You can still get similar to those today. 5A sockets, for plug in lighting.

Yes, direct to consumer

I like the concept.

However the UI is a little confusing (on mobile anyway).

I might suggest you don't present the pre-set range values, as it makes it a lot easier.

Have you considered - perhaps in a way to gamify it a bit more - giving a first hint, and hiding the next 3 unless the player asks for them? It would add an element of 'getting it in 1 go' etc. I'd imagine one or two-shot winners are also more likely to share their results. More potential for your app to go viral.

Shame dedodedo.wav isn't working - can still hear it when I think of it. A white background?!.. Must be some messed up styles there, 90% of GeoCities sites had black BG in 1997..

Interesting article but fails to mention about Nike big pivot to DTC around covid times. So will likely be taking home a lot more than 9% (or _were_ up til last year)

I think it was exists, but if its not in a 'awesome-schemas' you might just find it in a subfolder of a pentesting repo

Nice. Is that a 5110? That takes me back... Is the top score is 2008 or 4008?

You may enjoy 'Never Split the Difference' by an FBI negotiator. Interesting read for high stakes (kidnappers etc) stuff

This is overlooking the massive capital that's been invested in the part of the 33 months... Which alters the doubling timeline significantly.

Firefox does not use chromium. (For now anyway...)

You can purchase data-only sims that last a couple of years in the UK with generous monthly data allowances for a one time upfront fee. May save you overpaying for two separate bills.
