>... work like indentured servants ... I'm sorry but are you reading what you're putting down here? These people are making ridiculous swathes of money doing piss easy work, let's no…

Well let's see the A"I" come up with the equivalent of a cave painting in full isolation, then.
comment
Philosophical bullshitting aside (and it really is philosophical bullshitting), I just genuinely don't care if a human or a machine "think" or "learn" in the same way. I don…

I personally hope they win, and win big. Anything that ruins Micro$oft's day is a boon to mine.
comment
I find these frequently brought-up comparisons of robots to humans pretty funny, personally. I think we can and absolutely should delineate between a human drawing inspiration from their peers and an …

Sure, on a small scale, but Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal and I'm sure many other platforms exist and are quite successful. I'm a big pirate myself, with multiple TB harddrives full of pirated…
comment
This is going to be a somewhat disjointed and nonsensical comment as I'm finding it difficult to find the proper words to put down regarding this whole issue. Never in my life did I expect myself…
comment
This just reads like a "Damn kids, get off my lawn!" type comment to my admittedly young mind. Same with a lot of similar comments I see floating around HN, especially ones that have anythin…

Someone could still take your code if it's hosted elsewhere and put it up on GitHub, at which point it gets sucked into the blackbox that is Copilot
comment
I don't think I've ever seen a single ad on Firefox (including on any website thanks to uBlock working better on FF than anywhere else), what ads are you talking about?
comment
I use one that just lets me use some custom HTML, I just have some plaintext bookmark type links
comment
No amount of seeing black characters in a movie or show (or the flipside in Indonesia, seeing non-asian characters) is gonna make it any less strange for people when they spot them in real life if the…
comment
How do black dwarves make sense? Their entire species lives deep underground and never sees the light of day, so they don't need to evolve to protect their skin from UV rays. It's not like h…

> There’s been black people in Italy for pretty much all it’s history. You may want to also read a few history books. (Black moors, Alessandro de' Medici, etc ) I've always hated this dis…
comment
These days Vermintide 2 with its endless hordes and mechanical skill ceiling have been drawing me in (around 700 hours clocked so far). Feels like a game tailor-made for people with ADHD, considering …
comment
I think this is true in the US (from the stories I've heard/read about at least), I grew up in Southeast Asia though, there isn't much of a culture for over-prescribing (or prescribing …
comment
Anecdotally as a zoomer ('98, so I guess that's technically just on the precipice of being a zoomer), I definitely feel like a lot of my friends and colleagues my age have some form of att…
comment
Does anyone like marketers in the present? Most people I talk to - technical or otherwise - seem to detest them
comment
It is unfortunate that it's enabled by default, but I just have NextDNS block any calls to and from `*.telemetry.mozilla.org`. 0 complaints from me after doing that
comment
They can pry my home office from my dead, cold hands. I am never stepping foot into another godawful, soul-sucking office ever again. The sole fact that I get to actually sleep like a human rather tha…
comment
As someone who despises companies like Google, Facebook etc, I can easily and confidently say if my choice was between them harvesting all the data about me that exists in the world and TikTok (or any…
comment
I'm in my mid-20s with an entire childhood of very early mornings - I can still barely get out of bed until around 10am, and even if I manage to somehow do that I've got the brain function o…
comment
I genuinely like the hacktoberfest shirts, so every October I just make a new GH Repo with some text files that I make 5 PRs for, this has worked for the last 6 years lol Really not sure why people bo…
comment
Sounds like an easy bugix in that case, just leave the log in!
comment
LocalCDN is great for this! Avoids both the privacy concerns, plus makes things a bit speedier as everything is readily available locally already
comment
moot made 4chan and ran it off servers in his basement because he was inspired by Futaba channel and 2chan, and he wanted to create an English-oriented forum to discuss anime with others in an anonymo…
comment
China buying their gas is a long-term effort, though, they can't just up and relocate gas headed west on a whim like that. The infrastructure isn't in place for it, and if they don't do…
comment
I do understand that reasoning, but that comes back to my annoyance with having to deal with a million files to do anything simple. I then need to create a backing controller if it wasn't there b…
comment
<bigRant> I just got a new job, mostly backend but with a bit of Ember thrown in, and I despise the framework. It's slow to work with, massive, and incredibly over-engineered and makes it s…

LocalCDN blocks all Google Fonts by default, causes lots of sites to display default sans-serif system fonts instead though
