This and a comment under it start with the exact same sentence. “Faith in elections and election integrity is incredibly important.” There’s something wrong here and it makes me doubt HN

Nope, onions, cilantro, and lime, then armageddon
Did they not even test their AI detection tool to verify that it can detect when something is human written? That should have been exactly as important as the opposite. Maybe a tool that checked that would be equally as ineffective and we’d move on from the subject entirely
Please correct me if I’m wrong but it’s my understanding he didn’t start the fire that burned much of the Palisades; he started a fire that was put out (or at least was claimed to be so) which rekindled later and the rest is history.
Thanks, I didn’t recall
I think it was Call of Duty 2 (when the franchise was still WW2-based) when they would show, in my recollection, an anti-war message including this one every time your character died. I think this was absent from later incarnations of the franchise.
It wasn’t even accepted that an asteroid killed the dinosaurs until early 1990s
250k must be chump change compared to what they gained then
This is honestly very interesting. I bought a condo that was pre-equipped with Casetas and due to the crappy app I thought “these are budget and terrible” but actually reflecting now they all work tremendously and I haven’t had a problem with any. Goes to show how much an ignorant person (me) can’t recognize function over form
I imagine you couldn’t keep pushing deadlines out indefinitely like we can in American software companies.
Where does “several” fall on your spectrum?
I put in the web framework that our company’s ecosystem is based on and it said “no results.” At first I thought this was part of the joke, but no, our tech is just beyond dead.
I don’t think that’s why the GFW exists but ok
Europe is also seeing far-right ideology spreading and taking over mainstream politics so this really isn’t an American problem only right now.
The reflections in the whiteboard are all off. Do they address this?
This doesn’t show that he was “high on cocaine and morphine 24/7” as the relevant commenter suggested; just that he struggled with addiction
If you think of reading as one means of consumption of information then the ability to read may just be outdated, and people are moving to new forms of information consumption. Reading was never particularly exciting for me even though I wanted to discover what was hidden (often buried) in texts and if you can get the information in a more engaging and streamlined way so be it. Maybe the issue is really the content people are streaming and the lack of critical thinking and not that they are streaming at all.
Unpaywalled link has been posted already
Ability to write wasn’t the original literacy! It’s about reading. If you can’t read code or commentary about code how are you supposed to write good code or formulate new ideas about what good code should be and propagate those?
Usually someone will come along and post a link that gets around the paywall.
I just don’t understand how this kind of thing can be legal. How can you say “I’m running a gambling game, and if you’re not that good at it you can bet as much as you want and lose as much as you want, but if you are good, you’re not allowed to bet more than would hurt my bottom line.” I don’t understand how you can have different rules for different customers like this
Should be “every day.” “Everyday” is an adjective describing things that are normal or commonplace. And yes I will die on this hill
Is confabulation different from hallucination? If not I do suppose this is a more accurate term for the phenomenon except that the exact definition isn’t common sense without looking it up whereas “hallucination” is more widely understood.
I believe this is a personal problem of the author. I see a lack of self-control and self-determination where he is doing more of what his social group and technology want/enable rather than what works for him. For example the 77 tabs: how is that useful? The tech makes it possible but doesn’t endorse or require it and they don’t make money off of it. I find tabs become useless once there are more than eight or so in a window. I prefer to break out work streams into separate named Chrome windows that I can minimize and maximize when I need to. And also I still get into plenty of fights at bars but maybe that’s just me
Eef it’s a scary premise that each country has an AI mouthpiece trained on exactly what that country wants its citizens to be told. Under most regimes this is a bad idea
I believe in the article Huang claims it’s not that expensive
This is exactly an existing concern: flood the internet with LLM-generated disinformation, future LLMs get trained on it, those LLMs flood the internet with disinformation, the cycle repeats. This is why it’s a problem that LLMs can’t distinguish fact from fiction
Evidence please
You should not make such blanket statements about groups of people. And then especially blame it on culture when it is in fact your opinion/experience.
Can agree I’ve never heard of “master candidate”
