Has Amazon ever tried a curated, low-SKU section of the website? I guess that’s just the “Overall Pick.”
For that is a large appeal of Costco. If I need a blanket, I can visit a Costco and buy their softest blanket with no hesitation. It will be around $20. If it’s bad, they have the most generous return policy.
We shouldn't need to have people bearing false witness. Anyone who uses AI tools to produce published works should offer a clear disclaimer to their audience. I share the same concerns as the author: "Will my written work be used to say that I plagiarize off ChatGPT?"
All the toil of word-smithing to receive such an ugly reward, convincing new readers that you are lazy. What a world we live in.
Lol. I lurk on Hacker News. I am not a U.S. government employee.
I just felt compelled to state what I thought was missing from the conversation.
As an American, support for democracy and (small-l) liberal values is the best type of government.
These liberties are built into the U.S. Constitution. And, while the U.S. government makes mistakes, this is the ideal we strive towards.
The U.S. makes mistakes. Everyone is free talk about them and try to correct them.
Sometimes, we overcorrect or under-correct - or are slow to address things.
But we admit them. I think that counts for a lot.
I think it is unfair to point to military mistakes as undermining all of U.S. credibility.
(Perspective from an American)
Information is the gold of the 21st century. Whoever controls the flow of information has all the wealth and all the power. Therefore, data is the greatest currency in the world.
This outcome was never intended to happen, but ByteDance is taking a chance that the American government will relent. We’ll see in a few months who wins the stalemate.
TikTok has an immense amount of cultural power. The concentration of power scares me, no matter who holds it. But China ultimately having that power scares me more than an American company having it.
Again, this outcome was preventable, but ByteDance is hoping Americans let them continue with the status-quo. We didn’t and we shouldn’t.
The first film that pops up for me, “Oppenheimer,” is shown as available on Netflix in the United States. I believe it is exclusive to the Peacock streaming service in the U.S.
How did this happen? Do you have a mixture of manually maintained data and data pulled from APIs like The Movie Database (TMDB) or IMDB?
I think the comment is referring to the Court’s precedent of “chevron deference,” which is the idea that courts should defer to government agencies to decide how to apply laws whose meaning may be unclear.
