because old people don't understand it and don't care, they just want more money for themselves

old people will be upset that their house prices will go down for some reason democracies only care about boomers and ignore everyone else suffering.

why does the dispatcher even hold the right to override the automatic system by themselves? this should involve multiple people, at least a signoff by a superior.

> Not sure how to actually solve this…

fix the alarms? I only had one false fire alarm in my life. and thankfully zero real ones. it's possible.

do fire drills? if alarms get ignored, and you can't reduce the false-positive rate, then introduce fake alarms and monitor the response?

i think that's why gemini output seems nicer to read. or i just hadn't seen enough of it since nobody uses gemini.

well, besides publishing that paper, they were pretty hush hush about it. they had a working chatbot 2 years before chatgpt.

> Google did great search before AI overviews

not really... search was great in 2008 or 2014, but not in 2022. seo spammers won by then, and their writing was even worse than opus 5.

I remember that the sites google shown before were sites you could get lost in. often they were communities. often they were sites actually written by an enthusiast of a subject.

these sites died. I wonder whether google was the victim or the culprit. the death of these sites did end up making their product worse. however, any site that actually hooked you meant less ad revenue for google. google wants you to come back from the result, since that's a second chance for you to click the ad. a result you come back from however is inherently a bad result.

i recently grabbed a PC from 2007, installed XP on it and a CRT monitor.

never have i felt a computer react so quickly. CRTs have much less lag than LCDs.

the world finally realizes that 1 in 4 people are actually saying the truth, not being lazy

I recently started a new job that forced me to wake up at 6:30AM and it was fucking misery. last weekend though was the DST change, effectively shifting everything one hour forward and oh god I finally feel alive and capable of doing anything but sleeping

i'm planning to vibe-port some modern software I need to Windows XP. I'm done with the web browser, I'll just vibe native software for the sites I want

how do you go from

> the users don't focus on this menu much

to

> therefore we need to make this menu as large as possible

shouldn't the conclusion have been "the start menu is so great the user doesn't even need to focus on using it". it feels like desperately trying to make the data fit the predefined conclusion, despite the data screaming and kicking.
