legal is a standard, but not the standard. letter is the standard

oh boy, that's quite the stretch...

Seeing as how LLMs objectively increase performance when used correctly, I'd support the company's decision to let you go for specifically performance reasons. I'm not saying you should be all in on LLMs end to end, but there are individual processes in every workflow that can be enhanced by the tool. If you find those, you will perform better than you could without LLMs, no question.

And a lot of other things too. It's kinda the whole point of their existence.

> Is there tho?

Yes.

> I'm curious to know what percentage

A fraction of one.

Same with most topics that HN considers sensitive, such as privacy concerns. >99% of people just don't give a shit.

I finally feel justified! Not only do I get my hands dirty, but I also don't use soap unless water alone can't get them clean. Most of the time, our great universal solvent does a fine job without stripping my good bacteria.

> instead of talking to each other, they’re all watching TikToks or reels.

There's only so much to talk about, and if they're doing that, they've probably already said all there is to say. I'm glad we have something to do now besides make awkward trivial banter or sit in awkward silence.

It's always MBAs.

If it's one thing I learned from my old web hosting business, it's that any website can be in immediate need of a CDN or DDOS protection at any given time. It's the only business where my customers were randomly attacked for seemingly no good reason. It's also why I got the hell out of that business.

they already have audio video surveillance signs posted everywhere from the moment you walk in so that would go over like a lead balloon

I don't think anyone needs to disclose the tools they used to write something. Nobody ever disclosed Word's grammar suggestions or spelling corrections, or the fact that they used some autocomplete tool to produce code, so we should they now need to start disclosing this tool. Besides, in it's current state, it discloses itself to anyone paying attention.

I do think people own the output they produce regardless of the tools they use, and if they want to put crappy writing out there with their name on it, that's on them. Even if they do disclose that it was written by an LLM, they're still 100% responsible for the content.

You can just watch or read the mainstream news for a few days and see for yourself, really. They may not outright lie that much, but they constantly lie by omission - all of them. And when they are called out, it's like screaming into the void since they just ignore it and carry on their merry way. Hence, very little if any accountability, and usually because the people that rely on these sources aren't the ones calling them out, and so refuse to believe they were lied to since it challenges what they think they know.

> IMO the better thing is to force these companies to dump this mindset

IMO this is a strictly idealistic view in a world where only a very small vocal minority actually seems to care. The vast majority of people will continue to reward these companies with their wallets, so they have no incentive to change course.

> with your entire online identity

Seems like one account for idendity (gmail and personal gemini assistant) and another for everything else would be a best practice.

geez, dude, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning...

The word "requirements" is doing a lot of work there. I've never met a QR code where scanning it was required of me.

Unless you're Knight Capital, of course. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuqSy1jPSUw

> the internet is unusable without an ad blocker

As someone who successfully uses the internet day in and day out with zero ad blockers, this stance always amuses me. It's not hard to just ignore ads.

It's okay to remain on the brink of starvation as long as you're doing what you love! Is that gonna be a new Etsy category?

> A toilet that has a door with a countdown seems like the most stress-inducing thing ever.

It would be more stressful to the people who are standing there watching me finish my shit than it would be to me, I guarantee.

Unfortunately this won't fix the atrocious recommendation system. I really wish these music services could just license Pandora's system. Since Pandora won't add high quality streams, they may as well offer a license to make up for the money they leave on the table monthly.

The most user hostile part about Spotify though, is that you can't just thumbs down a song and never hear it again. Why the fuck would I want you to "not recommend it for 30 days" if I'm telling you I dislike it?

If I didn't lock in a bundle deal years ago that I still can't pass up, I wouldn't use it at all. As of now though, it's relegated to my backup player for when I can't find a song on YT Music or Qobuz.

For now, but there's really no point in detecting them anyway, since there are plenty of truly concealed options for those that really want to be pervs.

If it hasn't accidentally sent one of your drafts yet, then I can see how you're comfortable with that.

Oh, so it works fine for masochists? That's good to know.

> Seems like it makes a lot more sense to buy a computer without Windows preinstalled.

For the vase majority of users, it only makes sense to buy hardware with a preinstalled OS.

There is no modern isolated Nuclear family. There's mostly broken homes now, and that is the root cause of most of the problems.

Of course, because prescribing pills is the sole job of a psychiatrist. Go to a phycologist or therapist of you want to try to talk it out. If talking doesn't work, they'll send you to a psychiatrist for medication.

Good. Before, there were questions. Now, there's precedence. Thanks for taking one for the team, Anthropic!

> Yes, it's inspired by Minecraft.

More likely that Minecraft was inspired by Luanti since Luanti was released first. (at least, formally released)

I think the bigger issue there is that you're trusting Google with your health data. Surely there's an offline calendar app that could help you track it just as well. Anyway, I hope you benefit from the therapy regardless of how you decide to track it.
