Turn the news off and look at the data. It’s important to end these conflicts, but in terms of scale, these are far smaller than the past.

Turn the news off and look at the data. It’s important to end these conflicts, but in terms of scale, these are far smaller than the past.
Here’s homicides per capita in Western Europe. I highly recommend reading The Better Angels of Our Nature by Steven Pinker. It goes into this in depth.
Violence has been going down for centuries. We’re hearing about it more, but it’s declining. It peaked around 1993, and it’s been trending downward ever since.
If you zoom out and look at super long term trends, it’s been declining for centuries.
HTML is not a programming language
It’ll take so long before you can even leave your physical ID at home and count on everyone accepting your digital one. And it may never happen that people stop accepting your physical one.
It’s so people can trial having digital IDs. Some TSA and others can scan the new IDs, but not everyone can. So in the meantime, you have to carry your physical one too.
People are pointing out potential negatives, but this has some good possibilities for privacy too. If you show your ID at the liquor store, there’s no need for the clerk to know your name or address. The scanner can just verify your age.
You can also use a custom UI. I recommend VueTorrent.
In fact, using this mod, you can even have Docker download it and keep it up to date. In qBittorrent you just need to change the WebUI location to /vuetorrent.
People are pointing out the juxtaposition of many people losing their jobs while one person spends silly amounts of money on toys. It’s not that he spent it on toys, it’s that he made so much that he was able to waste it on frivolity while others around him suffered.
You subscribe to memos that tell you what to think is cringe?
AirVPN allows a reserved port, so you don’t even have to change the setting in your client every time your port changes.
It’s been timing out for me over the last few days too
I have a second instance of Prowlarr running with this fork. The issue with ABB is that it blocks Prowlarr’s user agent. This fork changes the user agent and re-enables ABB.
Right. Throughout human history, if someone was cast out of a community, they didn’t survive. We’ve been trained through evolution to go along with the tribe because it’s unsafe to question anything and get cast out.
That’s great, but the fact it’s local and private means it can consume my personal data and be a more personal LLM. This just doesn’t hit that mark.
Apple Maps was bad, yes. But they had their hand forced. Google started charging for their API (enough to cripple their app), and they had very little time to create one of their own.
That’s not happening here. No one is forcing their hand. If they didn’t release an updated Siri this year, nothing would happen.
Yes. Android already does all these things. But I think the things I’m excited most about are not on this list at all.
A private local LLM. With the on-device context of my notes, messages, calendar, etc, I’m rather excited to have a more personal LLM than ChatGPT.
Personal messaging via satellite. I love that I can stay in touch with people outside of a cell network.
Agreed. You could argue that Reddit is actually overcrowded.
It won’t happen like that. Leadership will just under-hire and expect all their developers to be way more efficient. Working will be really stressful with increased deadlines and people questioning why you couldn’t meet them.
Or that they can buy the plane ticket first, then apply for the grievance discount later…

Look at the sentence you wrote. Since the Korean War. And the Korean War was the biggest since the one before that.
