hmm. the manual curation and format normalizing could be adding value, but it looks veeery close to a stolen content farm. I like the disclosure so i'll give them the benefit of the doubt until they start pushing clickbait.

sure looks like it was. If they cant bother to write it i'm for sure not going to read it.

forbes is not a source of information. it used to be a real source of journalism but now is worthless

nah. cryptography is not seriously held back by cryptocurrency

well, if spoken and not spelled you could use the homonym of sun, son, in a whole range of responses - "he was hiding from his mom" - well, it's not funny but at least it's a joke now.

it's funny because I know it came from a 4-year old :) If an adult said it it could also be funny because they are saying a child-like joke as meta-humor.

"accuse them..." piss off

"Check out the latest post on my blog" - you're promoting your own blog.

smells like spam to me

No spam please

damn. fucking. straight. pussyfooting with racist traitors has kept us paying for the original sin of slavery into another goddamn century.

popular vote for president

nonpartisan redistricting of every state

there is a lot of technical debt in this project

he's proposing that outrage is not the best way to oppose them - that we can be more clever and effective by knowing the enemy

They have the most reliable rocket in the world.

nah, you're being hyperbolic. run the actual numbers. just the US GDP is 28T - AI investment in 2024 was like 250B. it will barely leave a dent

so i don't see the path to AGI either, certainly not with LLMs. but there is some very useful stuff to be done with deep learning, and LLMs are a pretty amazin advance for search, translation, communication and user interfaces. but it's not the next industrial revolution.

i don't see the sunk-cost fallacy angle, just the sunk costs. the capital allocators will absolutely shut off the spigot when they see that it isn't going to yield. yeah, there could be some dark data centers. not the end of the world, just another ai winter at worst - maybe a dot-com crash... whatever.

the world is way bigger than the techo chamber

Or not engaging enough to come to any conclusion - just chuckle - upvote. Useful, but not idiots nor villains

Finally, a rational argument from the torch and pitchfork crowd. Xiao is not taking security sensitivities to heart : HTTP?? To China‽ and a dismissive BS answer.

exactly. the clickbait is how it raises fear of a credible nearby threat -

Hey I live in CA!

Ohh... the Authorities!

The Alarm is raised!

the rest is evocative and loaded terms too, "wild" "pigs" "flesh!" "neon" - but at least they are unexaggerated.

It's a gross headline

that little bit of work and attention is too much for most people.

I'm as frustrated about this as you are, but there is a large class of people who will not or can not understand and implement the password-manager workflow.

Of the people I know who are not in a tech career i'd say about 80% have nothing but contempt and ignorant fatalism toward security. The only success I've had is getting one older relative to start writing account credentials down in a little paper notebook and making sure there are numbers and letters in the passwords.

clickbait headline - could easily be made less offensive and more informative :

"Wild pig flesh turns neon blue after eating rodent poison"

California, Authorities, and Alarm are all unneeded

Article is a long, personal story conveying the human cost and context of a simple-to-understand problem. If you have experienced this yourself - and most have to some degree - then all the description is unnecessary. Which seems appropriate - how do you convey an internal personal experience - maybe lots and lots of talking with metaphors and emotions?

The health-provider side has the problem that some people are faking it, some are seeking attention or drugs without a condition, and some are needlessly suffering but won’t say so. Also, they don’t have the time.

This is a wicked problem for a system to have - there are malicious actors and incompetents on both sides. The current systems of half-century-old 1-10 scores is frustrating and simplistic.

TFA is not saying the solution is for all patients to get an English degree - I think. The worksheet they show as an improvement is dramatically more complex, hard to read, and undoubtedly more accurate than the old 1-10. That’s not a clear ‘win’.

Also, why have we accepted these simplistic tools for so long? Maybe there is little to be gained by improving them - or maybe the incentives are misaligned.

It’s a good problem to work on

Bad people think others are also bad.

well said. And, I think that deleted reply really took this off track somewhere. so uh, carry on.

blood is a top-ten US export (#7 in 2024) - like 2.5% of our exports by value. It's a surprisingly big business.

It's only vampiric, not ghoulish.

so the do-not-remove tag inspectors work at the plasma center?

that article reads like an internet recipe SEO honeypot.

this is an extremely esoteric thing - no net magnetism, but has some possibly-useful properties of atomic spin... useful if you're doing some spintronics, that is. maybe.

that reads as nonsense. it's mixing wind and water, and all those missing words indicate that it's the product of a broken mind.

also, you, the MAGA-hallucinations against windpower are contemptible lies AND they have nothing to do with this single underwater turbine.

You have to check out their incredible safety investigation videos on youtube. I don't know how well-organized or efficient they are but clearly their role needs to be played by someone - and as a taxpayer I appreciate that they are doing it in a way that educates and informs.

it's funny, but tipping is one of the things many people will pay more to avoid.

maybe you could presume sincerity and not respond like a prick?
