If they’re gonna behave like robber barons of yore, then it would be nice if they’d at least emulate the philanthropy part as well (e.g., Carnegie libraries of the 21st century).

A question for the ages.

Time to fight fire with fire: run all your pseudonymous posts through your own LLM to mask your unique writing.

This is exactly the sort of development I feared when 1Password announced they were doing away with local vaults. I really wish they could find a way to make that an option for users who want it, even if it were to still default to a cloud setup. Id prefer to know the bounds of my attack surface.

Most witnesses would be on the ground, not in the air. Plus, grounding everything except deportation flights would make them far more conspicuous.

Because it's a learned and herd behavior, and right now it's easier than ever to copycat it and follow the crude crowd. Why? (1) Ubiquity and (2) lack of direct negative consequences for doing so.

Just for fun, it would be interesting to see what the various LLMs would find if told to analyze the spreadsheet.

We love our 2017 Leaf! Got it used a couple years ago for under $10k with only about 22k miles on it. Battery was in poor shape, but fortunately it dropped below the warranty-replacement health level before the warranty on it ran out, and since they don't make the original battery capacity...

I bought an item from overseas that DHL held at customs until I paid the $25ish import duty. I was annoyed at the time, but that approach might actually work in my favor, since I assume that would be eventually refunded to me by DHL in the event that SCOTUS overturned the associated tariffs.

Does it fix the blinding white flashes when you tap or move the cursor in some text boxes?

Whoa, does the Palma have Wacom stylus support?

Makes me wonder what the supplement scene is like in the EU. Have they done a better job of regulating and studying the effects of these things? Might be a useful resource for interested American consumers if so.

“…having coordinated the position of a balloon data point with the flight path of the aircraft.” I think the word you wanted there is “correlated.” “Coordinated” makes it sound like this was all the hobbyist’s fault!

True enough! I had a little end-of-year bonus money that I’d set aside for it. And the ring ended up being slightly less expensive than the AVP, too. Win-win!

I almost bought one of the originals on launch day. I ended up buying an engagement ring instead. I think I chose wisely.

This is essentially the solution proposed by Jonathan Haidt in his book “The Anxious Generation.” Kind of like an identification equivalent of a service like PayPal: a trusted broker that vouches for you while keeping the sensitive information to themselves. This solution seems like the best...

I think the author meant to say “less cumbersome” here…?

I greatly dislike the recent squircles-for-all dock aesthetic. I’ve appreciated being able to manually override those with png copy-pasting into the Get Info icon field, but it seems that last bit of visual freedom is being quashed. RIP, visually distinct app icons.

The marketing department can make any move sound like a stroke of genius. Sometimes I wonder their target audience is, though: potential customers or C-suite execs?

Not to mention sugar, bright colors, and clever algorithms
