Is it just the young men whose mental health is declining? I'd go a generation earlier and see how things start to get pretty bad. A lot of kids these days don't hang out in person, they are hanging out virtually while laying down in their beds or in comfortable chairs in front of their consoles or computers playing video games online. This is quite unealthy way to grow up. A lot of teenagers, male or female are also undetachable from their cellphones and social media too. This is also a very unhealthy way to grow up.

Sure, that goes without saying. But the current direction of anticonsumer surveillance seems to be going in a different direction. While waiting for the pendullum to hit back we can take it into our own hands and protect ourselves.

Why not? It created quite a discussion around the subject. If you don't care for this why not simply ignore it?

Hope to see a new market for disabling telemetry and phonehome features from cars. It should be legal to do so, if you own the car I suppose. I'm thinking that rigth now few pople even know how much spying their new car does to them but this will change and as awareness grows more and more people will want to do it.

You'be been waiting for a blog post to make this decision?

In theory I agree wholeheartedly. But what's the alternative for these users to do marketing? Also remember that a lot of these folks have no idea that they can be ejected from a platform with no reason/recourse..

In a way you're right but that should have been her choice not forced out with no warning nor recourse. Also she was using META for marketing so this will affect her bottom line, she was basically kicked off the market...

It's probably a good idea to reduce phone computing to a minimum. Also the larger phone will likely damage your vision to need glasses eventually but there are other ergonomic factors at play. Do you want to hold your phone with two hands? Doesn't it get tiring for wrists to hold the phone in the position? I personally reduced phone usage but am still using a SE2022 which is a small phone. For reading I got a e ink reader and Im very happy with that.

Yes, America (the US) is still beating China in the AI race, but it's got no way to keep the Chinese models from catching up. Also the amount of money burned in the US on AI is unfathomable. From that metric China may as well win with minimal investment and very little waste.

Discussions are just discussions. You can always opt out not participate. HN's guidelines make discussions here are a lot more civil than reddit.

That's when the fumble time starts

Maybe you triggered a cascade of events that took down a few datacenters.

Perhaps when AI is better to just guide the student to slove a problem rather than spell out the answer for them. In that sense an AI tutor that is well designed for this specific task would be infinitely patient and explain in many ways till the student gets it. We're not there yet so I applaud the current ban.

This is great and hope it'll be compatible with more and more browsers.

This should be done by youtube themselves. It's so simple for them to label AI generated content so people can either look for it or avoid it but they won't do it. I'm not sure how they profit from AI gen videos over regular videos...

I was looking for a setting to turn off Youtube Shorts but there's no way to do it, it's like that by design, Youtube want to shove those in your face so you click on it, even if by accident. Luckily I found a free app to do it (IOS). I absolutely appreciate the effort people put into fighting these companies back.

Apple Maps still shows Lake Ontario. Google appears to be eager to please Trump in a timely manner.

It's getting there. Right now there is still free opposition to Trump.

Yeah, yeah, soon any opposition to Trump or Israel is deemed terrorist...

LLMs are bad at not inventing stuff (hallucinating facts, sources etc), they're also bad at not over explaining, remembering details reliably, asking the right question and avoiding repetition.

> why does it come with attached storage unit for my calipers?

You could store the primary tools you use there as to declutter your desk. In my case though the storage box would end up probably covered with clutter over time.

I don't dislike it though, this is not for a person like me.

> No but they can mimic some aspects of consciousness.

I'd say no but they can mimic it that it becomes indistinguishable to us.

That is Robocop minus the maintenance costs.

I find washing dishes by hand meditative too. I also don't find dishwashers too appealing.

There are intelligent people who may not be necessarily be on the same scale socially and they do get burned by it.

It may be unlikely, it's true, but I'm still hoping for justice.

Maybe you make some friends and also maybe you obtain some information to get you off the well trodden path of tourism.

Wow, this is horrific treatment. I hope to see the day the perpetrators will punished.

Only if you're sitting down and lingering for 10 minutes...

That is a real phenomena for a chunk of the population but I'm trying to understand what it is. Is it ADHD?

People will not elect them but they will nonetheless win the elections. This is disheartening indeed..

I doubt they'll do any time at all.
