I think this is one of the very few times I've seen Elon Musk's companies lose a lawsuit.
With all the jockeying in the US, I wonder if this is a sign of more, meaningful, legal trouble to come.

But it's very similar to chess, where positional sense is crucial
All the sales made to retail were not protected, simply because they went through an exchange.
I'm so tired of waiting for regulatory authorities and legislators to wake up and do their job.
So I went through and applied for the first time, and honestly, I felt like a lot of the questions were very obvious? Could be because I come from a finance / business background vs. a CS background, but I was shocked that people would consider these questions non-obvious.
Hopefully this doesn't come off as arrogant. If it helps, I was rejected from YC, so perhaps I hadn't thought through the questions enough!
I thought this was about violence in video games the first time I clicked.
Also, is there an arrival date for V3 now?
Sharing some perspective on this (I was involved in the fix).
Basically what started happening at some point was that Maps had built in a “timeout” for the fetch of Saved lists. When the lists weren’t able to be downloaded/fetched in under X seconds, the system stopped trying, assuming that lists in general would always load in under X seconds.
For users with huge lists, and for some users with very slow connections, it would timeout and not show anything. The way to notice it was typically when sharing the list, because the receiving user would fall into that timeout trap. The owner of the list usually didn’t notice immediately because the places were cached on their devices.
It’s still being worked on, and being rolled out slowly.. Some changes will come though, not sure how it’ll be announced.
Otherwise, the more stores that withdraw from offering free public toilets, the more burden it places on everyone else.
If it causes a slight increase in labor cost, at least it the cost will be borne equally by all, and benefit will be borne most by the most vulnerable.
Also, LOL at Condé Nast. How on brand of them to C&D you!
> “The problem lies in the automated system used to detect and review the content,” says Pia Semorad. “Technology fails to distinguish between artistic nudity and real photographs, and images are constantly blocked, making our account unsearchable. This amounts to censorship on social media, even if we are not violating the rules.”
What's to stop someone from creating an OF and asking AI to painting-ify their pornography?
If you ask the average person, "hey, should nudity from {the 1400s|last week} be censored under pornography rules?", they'd probably say no to the first and yes to the latter.
But how do you differentiate? How is Meta supposed to know there's cultural / historical significance to something?
In fact, excluding the very well known tools (e.g. LLMs) I think I've found maybe 3 in my career and I only use one of them sporadically (a $20 one-time Excel add-in). The other two cost 4-5 figures and were provided by my employer at the time.
Is there any hope for a future where all airplane wifi is free?
(Maybe if cellphone plans automatically include satellite wifi?)
Downloaded the app, and tried to sign up, but everything was flashing -- I think it keeps flipping between screen sizes
Why did Elon suddenly go so hard against OpenAI and now Apple? Because he was planning to, and then did, launch his own AI business.
It is a conscious decision, not an accident

Also:
Holy shit.
Would you rather publish or work on the cutting edge?
"The private sector funds most global research and development, and many of the results of such work are not published in peer-reviewed journals."
I read this as:
Given the option of publishing pseudocode and not publishing at all, Nature is willing to accept the first.
and
Google would likely not have published if we required full transparency, and having them publish is more beneficial. (and this paper is impactful enough that it is worth making an exemption for.)
And in my opinion:
People are asking too much of Alphabet. Alphabet could easily choose not to publish anything. To be honest, I'm shocked that they do publish.
Certainly as my parent's generation must have been with the internet and computers for me.
I'm not sure what to do with this envy. Though, it has made me want to have a child even more, just to see first hand how they could develop so much faster and smarter than me.
