Let the enshittification begin

This, Netflix account-sharing blocking, and the ever increasing amount of streaming platforms (that mean an overall reduced catalogue per platform) leads me to believe we will see a resurgence in piracy.

Yo, Ho, Ho :)

How many flights have you taken in your lifetime? How many children do you have? Do you eat meat? Do you use multiple monitors when a 14" one would do? Why don't you cycle instead of using an EV? Do you not use solar panels? You could apply this reductionist logic to almost everything in the world.

"Freeloading on the rest of us", "some sacrifice might be required". What a depressing, dictatorial view.

Sacrificing people doesn't seem especially kind. Be kind, eh. When it suits you, I guess.

I read your comment as: "We will succeed when we make people who own ICE car's lives harder" am I wrong to read it this way?

The only way to realistically use a non-tactile button is to take your eyes off the road to look at what you need to press. That's the issue, anything else is irrelevant. I'm glad they're going back to physical buttons, I won't buy a car that doesn't have them.

I think that's every single piece of modern software to date. I call them "Dribbblrs", because it's like they take inspiriation from these websites (e.g. Dribbble) that fetishize things that look pretty but are dogshit to use. I really wish it would end but I don't see it happening unless there's a revolution from within the UX community (which I am not a part of).

Well, I'd argue that it makes the message more likely to be ignored. I think winning people over is a useful skill (not even on the internet, but in life)

Making a calculator is one of the things I do when I learn a new language, and I always end up using this algorithm because it's the only one I know!

bluetooth headphones have a noticable delay for anyone who pays attention.

That's the point.

Isn't that going to be extremely slow? I can only realistically run 7B 5-bit models on my RTX 3060, anything more and it offloads to the CPU. My responses go from almost-instantaneous to 3mins+.

To the point the other siblings are making, you can get an app for your phone to measure luminosity, try it out on a cloudy day (like in the UK today)

Does it take into account gross upvotes, or net?

E.g. could a controversial thread (plenty of upvotes, plenty of downvotes) get pushed off the front page because it has a low upvote:comment ratio?

I get that YC probably don't want to deal with controversy, but, well this is a community, of sorts...
