This is how news reporting works. The sources are not willing to speak publicly because they're talking about classified information. The NYT has verified their identity. You have to trust that NYT is right.

I realize that's an unsatisfactory answer for many. But it's how journalism has to work sometimes.

I feel like the rise of "virtue signaling" as a critique is a symptom of all of this: if I see someone visibly doing something good then it isn't actually good, rather they're just showcasing how much better they are than other people. Somehow a positive trait becomes a negative one.

> To have a character whose main traits included compassion and reason was a good influence on my generation of men.

I agree and although the prestige TV era has produced some wonderful TV it’s also been overflowing with antiheroes. I hope todays younger generation gets to see another character like Picard.

> We have no clue what actually happened.

We have on the record sources saying that he was not warned by the government. Hence me saying this is a story about government failure.

I’m yet to see evidence that getting more in your youth makes you want less as you age.

I disagree, I think this piece is the consequence of the Trump administration’s inaction. It isn’t even really a hit on Jensen:

> Mr. Huang has not received a defensive briefing, warnings sometimes given to Americans who are being targeted by foreign intelligence services, people briefed on the surveillance said.

It’s essentially saying intelligence was gathered that a Chinese asset was close to Jensen and absolutely nothing was done about it.

So wild to be living in a time where the most powerful man in the world is very obviously turning senile and those that surround him choose to indulge his outbursts rather than address the problem.

How many examples do we need of the Trump administration doing some illegal move then getting slapped down by the courts? This would be a slam dunk for DoorDash. That they chose to capitulate instead is damning.

For sure. It was an acquisition, though.

The users that comment aren’t thrilled. Don’t mistake that for the user base in general. (though don’t completely disregard them either, they’re power users)

I can only speak for myself but suggestions for ingredient substitutions (if they’re good, which is the crucial part!) would be a really useful feature for me.

This quote feels illustrative:

> “The internet is full of AI cooking content. I pay you because I prefer mine done by people.”

From my reading of it they’re not using AI to make recipes. Just to add optional features that let you modify a recipe a human made. It feels telling that they’re not even engaging with what the new feature is.

Except that movies don’t replace video games. They’re entirely different mediums.
