That sounds like a neat statistic. Do you have a source containing the data or better yet a rendered map showing this?

> I also don't pretend the history I learned about WWII and the persecution of Jewish people was objective truth either.

I'm not sure what you expect by spewing stuff like this apart from downvotes without comments.

As long as there is a forum as technical as this where LLM performance commentary uses the word "it understands" irony is still alive.

I can't follow your thought there. Who wrote it?

The amount of neo-antisemitism, ignorance towards history of antisemitism, Oct 7 denial, WW2 perpetrator/victim reversal, among other perception errors in this thread (and of course all online threads about this) is staggering and breathtaking.

At this point - except for this one message in this one thread on this one website - I have stopped all interaction with this topic online. I feel helpless, powerless and hope that this phase of human/news/information/power interaction is well past all of us within my lifetime.

Not really. A pastor is hardly a trained mental health professional.

As somebody who has been through various forms of psychotherapy, knows trained professional psychotherapists, knows highly educated personell in the relevant educational institutions, etc. the very mild summary that I think when reading what to my mind is a generalized statements like "Whole schools, e.g. psychotherapy, are possibly net dangerous." is:

Citation needed.

Also: Psychotherapy is not a school but is divided in many different schools.

I can recommend to use Pinboard with the archive option

I agree. He doesn't take that stance and thus I am not a customer and speaking out about it.

As somebody who is also not a Kagi customer because of this the statement of Vlad is exactly "throwing his hands up".

Two quotes from his response: "Any good search engine remains unimpressed by world politics." "We set out to fix search, not the world."

All the technical explanations between these two quotes could have also been used to justify why they are not contributing to Russias economy. But he didn't do that. That is a conscious choice while clearly being aware of the issue.

After a quick internet search apparently Google produces Pixel phones mainly in Taiwan with additional processes happening in China and India. What is the point you are trying to make?

Same for me. I don't understand why they are not able to cleanly separate themselves from Yandex. Their explanations don't help me understand it but only serve as "we hear you and consciously decide to still fund a Russian company".

If anybody reading this is willing to disabuse me of this I'll try to be open for a different perspective.

I value this insight but think that you might be part of the 1% your parent has described.

I had to check if Help & Support is indeed linked to Discord and sadly it is. For me this is an instant turnoff. If there is no documentation but rather I am expeced to scout chat logs, I won't even start to use it. (I realize that this is a bit of a meme but it is true for me)

I recently saw an interesting service online and wanted to try it. After I saw that the only support option they offered was discord I gave up immediately and searched for something else.

I might be wrong but I don't think those are services that can be characterised as micropayment like e.g. Flattr is (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropayment for more).

Oh wow - I would be really interested in more about this!

If you have any specific questions about VBA feel free to contact me. I spent a couple of years on macros in various contexts and still have loads of links. (I second the links already posted)

It's not so much about thinking that somebody else could do better.

By doing what they do they create the expectation that they _are_ doing better than everybody else.

Thanks for the thread to OP and thanks to you for answering - I was just asking myself the exact same question (Google to the rescue - this thread came up).

Good thinking to start experimenting with karma-related features.

It makes me re-think my own hn-visiting-process and at the same time I keep reflecting about how I currently comb through threads. Thanks pg!

Long-time lurker here. I really would appreciate that as I'd rather check a couple of new stories while at the same time glancing over the current top-stories. Reducing this by one click (I know, I'm lazy) would be great!

Sleeping is good, getting a counselor is not bad either.

I've been through rough times in the last year myself. Since a couple of months I am back on track again (or so it seems) and I've come to realize that my situation was/is far from rare. I've met people all over the place (once I was able to talk about it) who have been through nearly exactly the same thing.

Do you feel a diffuse stress at times? Diffuse meaning that you're not able to pinpoint where the stress originates from but at the same time the stress feels familiar because you've had the exact same feeling before.

Can confirm, I just got disconnected a minute ago.
