It’s hilarious – and also a bit sad – that Tan and his ilk assume that someone must be paying me to write. They apparently cannot imagine any human motivation beyond money. It does not occur to them that a person could simply be inspired to action because they care about things like community, democracy and truth.

See also: "if people weren't under threat of unemployment ruining their lives, they wouldn't be motivated to work." Many right-wingers seem to have no conception of being motivated to do something because it's good to do.

I know. The concern is just that people will run from Biden to someone even worse, not realizing he is even more extreme in his support for Netanyahu. So it seems worth mentioning. I know there's no ready answer. The electoral system leaves Americans no good options.

I don't know. Why does Trump support it even more strongly?

Yeah, the AUR seems pretty dodgy.

How many times has this red line moved now? Or maybe it never really existed in the first place.

Ok, Israel decapitated Palestinian babies and the media are not reporting it.

Lots of genuinely useful things and tangible improvements to look forward to on this list. What a contrast with Windows announcements these days, which are full of features that are either trivial or user-hostile.

I think once it has taken a profile of the voice it no longer requires you to be facing the person because it can now recognize that voice among the noise. The AI but is taking an imprint of the voice and then extracting it.

What's especially troubling is that many human programmers seem to prefer the ChatGPT answers. The Purdue researchers polled 12 programmers — admittedly a small sample size — and found they preferred ChatGPT at a rate of 35 percent and didn't catch AI-generated mistakes at 39 percent.

Why is this happening? It might just be that ChatGPT is more polite than people online.

It's probably more because you can ask it your exact question (not just search for something more or less similar) and it will at least give you a lead that you can use to discover the answer, even if it doesn't give you a perfect answer.

Also, who does a survey of 12 people and publishes the results? Is that normal?

Ecosia was affected too. It's Bing with trees.

What are the main problems of Matrix? I have searched around for this but not found anything concrete. I use Element with E2EE and haven't had any real problems with it.
