That's what I was thinking... Now spammers will add hidden prompts or things worse than that for the LLMs...

I just have no words. There will be so many scams and other issues if (or when) OpenClaw is hacked... Identity thefts, bank transfers, deleted accounts, stolen photos, etc.

Could it be that they are just squeezing a 3rd party battery over its safety limits to make it "real".

When ar they supposed to put the Verge motorcycle on the roads?

I think you don't cook much if you say this... We try to cook our food as much as possible and also we are at home almost all the time. At the end of the day there can easily be 2-3 pots, 2-3 bowls, 4-6 cups for tea, coffee or breakfast, a few glasses, 4 to 8 dishes, utensils and cutlery, some devices like a blender attachment and its jug, Tupperwares and some pan that I made sure it's dishwasher safe...

I could reduce a bit the number of glasses and cups by reusing them more but anyway,the dishwasher makes a big difference.

You can but you'll miss important context.

TOS and TNG explain the Federation utopian universe, the ongoing conflicts and races, the moral dilemmas of the captains... I feel that starting with DS9 might get you miss the point a bit.

I would say to at least try to watch a curated selection of TNG episodes.

These videos have high chance of aging like milk... We'll see what Anthropic does 10 years from now. Remember "don't be evil"

Even if what this article claims is false, I'm 100% in favor of buying organic fabrics like wool and cotton. I'm doing it as much as I can and it's not that difficult except for shoes and some water proof layer. There are also solutions for that but I admit they are a bit less convenient for certain uses like hiking

The microplastics are getting everywhere and I don't want to know what happens if the amount keeps increasing... But I guess we will know.

I wouldn't spread conspiracy theories without more information. It has rained really a lot and maintenance of railways are long overdue in Spain and especially Catalonia

It was to be expected. But I'm more afraid of sponsored answers.

If I ask ChatGPT to compare 2 products and only one of them is from an advertiser, will it be honest? I doubt it

I have 3 oversized air purifiers in my home.

I don't really know if they help to prevent infections but my wife has Long Covid and every time there is too much dust, pollen or smoke around us she gets pretty bad.

So we decided to buy them with little proof after she noticed she feels somewhat better when staying in a room with one. It could even be partially placebo but for the days with too much particles from outside I think it really helps.

Maybe we should rather have a full control of air flows in our home but that would be a huge investment for a very old house, also having air flowing with windows partially open on dry days also seems to help. Humidity ( and certainly mold) also has a clear negative effect so I had to buy a dehumidifier too

"It's very concerning that this marketing puff piece is being eaten up by HN of all places as evidenced by the other thread."

It's very concerning that you claim this without previously fully reading and understanding Google's publication...

Full of people sucking each other BS. And then recruiters unable to understand the most basics of a profile.

Nevertheless I update my own from time to time, it can still be useful if you navigate through the garbage. Also it helps me to cross-check a bit some people if they have a contact that you both know and you trust.

More than once I encountered people with 100% fake profile and fake work history. Maybe LinkedIn should only allow to add that you worked somewhere doing something with some kind of verification process.

My wife with Long Covid for 3 and a half years has the same issue and doctors just don't want to be bothered by her. For example spirometry test showed that her lung capacity is fine but the test itself left her exhausted for one week.

The pulmonologist analysing the results didn't even want to hear about her idea to do 2 tests in 2 sequential days. It was going to be harming for her but she was willing to do it just to have some evidence of what happens to her next day after an "effort".

She also asked for help to understand why polluting or pollen can trigger her fever and even coughing blood. Doctor just said she doesn't know and there is not test he can do.

It's so discouraging the lack of curiosity, eagerness to help and to try to learn new things 99% of doctors show.

I'm kind of forced to use X because to help my sick wife I follow on Long Covid research, people self-reporting improvement and so on.

Is there a way to get what I want without using X directly unless I interact? Notice that I need to be able to easily "follow" new people if someone I already follow retweets/likes someone new and interesting to me. Or also navigate through chain of retweets and references

It looks like a new EU fine is coming... But this time it should come fast because this is unacceptable
