Some of the "slides" have more content than fits vertically in the viewport, and trying to scroll to the bottom to see it without getting bounced to the next slide or back to the top is very touchy and tedious.

Talking to your computer can only ever work for people in atomized work-from-home silos, surely. I can't really imagine living in a world where everybody is just muttering commands to the computer all the time.

You can value not pumping out disposable garbage even if the (current) economic regime appears to encourage and reward it.

They actually don't need to sanction Anthropic as a "supply risk" in order to not contract with them, and doing so is obviously an insane overreach.

The military can work with someone else's product or use a bit of their trillion-dollar budget to come up with their own.

This is pure sophistry. Your complaints about the movie's tone and dialogue are strictly and specifically problems of your own taste, not filmmaking quality. The movie is (objectively!) well made with respect to "craft, skill, storytelling structure and emotional impact".

A movie which doesn't satisfy your specific tastes and expectations in science fiction hasn't "failed".

I don't think this drivel helps explains anything that's not stated in very plain English in DHH's blog.

Flock has a series of bizarre, obviously LLM-generated blog posts trying to convince the public that they are working "toward a future where compliance and community trust walk hand in hand"....

You'll get a downvote at 500 karma.

It's honestly very hard to even care at that scale.

Does the Containerise extension do what you want? I've used it in the past for wildcard subdomains but not for ports.

I don't get this either. My code doesn't have "base text"...everything is something! I can see that not being the case for something like HTML, but not for most programming languages.

More like the 80s but true. Also maybe worth remembering that Thiel was outed by Gawker. He didn't come out as gay of his own volition and perhaps never would have.

It helps that the rebrand may lead some people to believe that there are actually new and better inputs into the system rather than just more elaborate sandcastles built in someone else's sandbox.

Surely Jim is also using an agent. Jim can't be worth having a quick sync with if he's not using his own agent! So then why are these two agents emailing each other back and forth using bizarre, terse office jargon?

Jim's agent replies, "Thursday AM touchbase sounds good, let's circle back after." Both agents meet for a blue sky strategy session while Jim's body floats serenely in a nutrient slurry.

You might as well use your natural intelligence instead of the artificial stuff at that point.

Being able to do basic math in your head is valuable just in terms of basic practicality (quickly calculating a tip or splitting a bill, doubling a recipe, reasoning about a budget...), but this is a poor analogy anyway because 3x2 is still 3x2 regardless of how you get there whereas creative work produced by software is worthless.

Google Search made intuition and deep understanding and encyclopedic knowledge MORE important, not less.

Not to mention discernment and info literacy when you do need to go to the web to search for things. AI content slop has put everybody who built these skills on the back foot again, of course.

Resentful of what? Directed at whom? There are lots of options that cost less and many are shorter than four years.

What does "gorging themselves on endowments" even mean? If they did that, they wouldn't be very endowed in quick order.

Agreed particularly with respect to the top cover (though it has improved).

I think google several years ago had gotten very good at matching on related concepts, but it just fell off a cliff after that.

I'm not familiar with Readwise but it appears they only store highlights? Publishers probably don't like that but don't care enough to do anything about it, whereas "uploading copies of books to the services to do AI stuff with them" is the subject of many ongoing lawsuits right now, so they'll be very interested if this takes off.

Yeah, they're also going to get sued out of existence by publishers if they try this.

I can't overstate how important it is that a real bookmark stores itself by simply tucking it somewhere else in the book while I'm reading. A titanium dongle with a battery in it can't beat that for UX....

This is increasingly not a thing. I haven't had to do this in a very long time and my primary credit cards don't even have it in the apps/website anymore.

The relative clause "which is the worst form of unlucky" is embedded, among other complexities here. Obviously this doesn't make the text less readable, so I don't think nesting per se is the problem.
