unfortunately hosting your own email server is nearly impossible if you want reliable delivery. If you don't care about being put in the spam box then it can work.

Yeah same 100%

I'm not suprised Raycast is involved in this marketing scheme. They pollute their own product with ads where they shouldn't be. Whoever is running their marketing team needs a lesson in not pissing off your userbase.

Yeah for sure.

My point is just that fairness in the Olympics is fake and always has been.

Someones Chromosomes are such a poor way to measure their physical abilities especially when the bar is so high for top athletes in the field.

Boxing is often the example given because its someone getting hurt, but when you actually break it down it also falls apart for boxing.

If we measured everyones strength, bone density, etc... in order to stop people from risking injury that would be one thing But basing it on your Chromosomes is lazy and inaccurate.

The point is that "fairness" being tied to whether your Cis or Trans is a hilarious hill to die on when we have advanced medical technology to actually test what we deem "fair".

The differences between cisgender bodies are already so varied that the logic falls apart almost immediately.

For that matter why not restrict rich athletes who have access to training and equipment that poor athletes do not?

The point at where the line is drawn is entirely arbitrary. Gattaca vibes.

Sure, but any test that requires something painful like a spinal tap requires someone to already be in a dire state. What I mean is if it could be done through a blood test prevention would be much easier to test for without needing to have a severe episode first.

Interesting... too bad it requires a spinal tap, not a super fun test to get.

None of it is enforcable, its basically meaningless.

Great job politics!

Like lots of laws that are being written nowadays by octogenarians, aimed at strong arming bigger tech companies into designing things differently at the expense of everyone smaller which ironically ends up curtailing our basic freedoms, privacy, etc... even when the intent was otherwise.

Then again I have yet to meet a politician that actually cares as long as: "this looks good for my campaign".

Regulating big platforms that affect billions of people is one thing but I really wish they would write laws actually discriminating between those platforms and everyone else.

They do not care.

End qualified immunity and see how fast cops start to do their jobs with care.

Winning a lawsuit literally ends in your own community members (not the cops) paying the bill.

I think part of the problem is that we decided at some point that 18 is an age where you become an adult, which for some things in life is honestly way too young and for some things maybe too old but nuance is hard.

It seems to me that giving young kids devices is a bad idea in general?

I'm not sure what the age is when not having one becomes a greater liability for them than having one but I really feel strongly that creating laws around this is clumsy and the issue is still generally poorly understood.

Let's not create laws around stuff we don't really understand well yet?

I'm not a parent so I wish I didn't have a dog in this fight but legislation like this forces me too.

Aside from the fact that legislating how operating systems can be designed is an extremely bad idea, I don't understand how you can create state laws for ubiquitus or open source software that aren't an absolute joke.

completely unsuprising, Hisense is garbage and actively user hostile.

Yeah if only we could really own anything online, unfortunately its basically all rented.

This is what excited me about distributed technologies but fighting capitalism is hard.

what a bad idea...

this would be laughably easy to circumvent and terribly easy to abuse

I think the frustration is: it's not "news"

study says we should do a real study

I agree the distinction doesn't matter, but im not so sure "just" having a human in the loop qualifies as an ethical stand. Just because your not pulling the trigger doesn't make you not culpible for the outcome.

"vibe-kill" made me laugh then feel sick

I dont neccesarily disagree I was just dissapointed at the low effort post.

As someone who has been excited at the proposition that we could allow non technical folks to make complex apps without needing to raise money I was interested in reading more than what was presented here.

Seems like an absurd distinction to me... Reminds me of "I was just following orders"...

So... this would be fine with them?

Claude: "Are you sure you want me to commit murder?"

User: "Yes"

Or do you mean Human presses button:

Claude: "Do you to commit murder? If so press the button."

User: "I pressed the button"

Claude: "Great! Now lets summarize what we did."

Help me understand the line Anthropic is drawing in the sand?

Don't get me wrong i'm glad they are unwilling to do certain things...

but to me it also seems a little ironic that Anthropic literally is partnered with Palantir which already mass surveills the US. Claude was used in the operation in Venezuala.

Their line not to cross seems absurdly thin?

Or there is something mega scary thats already much worse they were asked to do which we dont know about I guess.

Always open to an opinion if its backed up by deep analysis and some well presented facts but this whole blog is just short angry comments.

I would be fine with this if they fixed the wildly buggy browser extensions.

The number of times my preferences have been wiped after an extension update is maddening.

Considering you can very easily be forced to login with your fingerprint by cops, bad actors etc... I would (personally) avoid doing this.

Accessing your laptop is one thing, accessing all of your passwords for every app with a fingerprint is scary.

This is very dissapointing as I switched to porkbun recently to avoid using anything the monopoly Crazy Domains (Dreamscape) owns.

"or anonymize it" means they would never opt to delete it and never will. Theres zero financial benefit to them deleting it other than honoring the customers privacy which they have clearly calculated is not profitable for them. Here's hoping this trend massively backfires across industries.

pledging allegence aloud to anything is bizarre and reminds of some sort of knights of the round table cosplay. It's especially weird making kids do it.

Completely unsuprising as Clearview has been turning Orwell over in his grave for years.

Facinating that they landed on infinite scrolling as the problem to spend time and energy on instead of all the other things happening online that have an impact on society.

Genuinely curious about the actual data on this.

Does anyone have a link to a reputable, sizable study?
