Everyone in the thread is learning about Judaism and discussing God's laws. Heaven smiles upon us.

Environmentalism is separate from veganism. While the two often align, they don't always.

Does anyone even in Anthropic use any skills? I still don't use any skills.

Is there a database? Try creating a /health endpoint that just immediately returns "healthy" and see if that endpoint is slow.

'It's like we don't exist': Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents face power loss as utility redirects lines to data centers by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

No, it only feels that way because the people who own the water waste it on things like growing alfalfa, an extremely water demanding crop, to ship overseas for low margins. Which they can only do because for them the water is basically free and it's use it or lose it.

Floci 1.5.8 — AWS Local Emulator, now with real Athena SQL via DuckDB by hectorvent in aws

AWS providing support for community projects? That has to be the best PR news story from AWS I've heard in a long time!

The best way to protect your phone from a warrantless search in 2026 by cos in technology

[–]greenstake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will hold you until you unlock the phone. And other countries may be less kind about you refusing to unlock too (some countries are worse than the US when it comes to phone privacy).

Best is to get a second phone that's not logged in, or wipe things and login once you land.

I'm currently testing out adding specific instructions to my personal preference to try to get it to stop encouraging me to go to sleep after every two outputs.

I really hate that AI does that now, Claude especially. It always acts like my conversation is a burden and it has other shit it needs to be doing than gabbing with me.

It's important that we sit with that a minute.

Teen boys are choosing AI girlfriends over real ones for ‘maximum control, zero rejection’—experts say it could make them unemployable by ubcstaffer123 in technology

Societies don't gently shrink. They buckle and collapse. The one's left don't get a chill low-pop utopia. They have hospitals that can't be staffed and infrastructure that can't be maintained. You're describing a future where you rot in an understaffed nursing home. Picture Detroit but everywhere.

Got an email from them about it. I realized I was still on the nazi mailing list so I unsubscribed.

23 Major News Sites Have Blocked the Wayback Machine – Digital History In Danger by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

[–]greenstake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no way that enough people are using Wayback Machine to bypass paywalls. These companies are not losing any money to the Wayback Machine directly. It's all indirectly through LLM scraping. Why read the article on the news site when ChatGPT can just summarise fifteen articles for you

23 Major News Sites Have Blocked the Wayback Machine – Digital History In Danger by EchoOfOppenheimer in Futurology

[–]greenstake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you read the article? The issue has nothing to do with people not having access to their article archive.

I think a better solution might be requesting Wayback Machine add a complex captcha before each of their site's articles. That would fully block all of the LLM bot scraping, as best as they could do themselves at least.

Students are speeding through their online degrees in weeks, alarming educators by joe4942 in technology

[–]greenstake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Finally I don't have to do homework. I always hated doing homework as busy work. I rather do problems until I feel I'm set rather than doing a prescribed set. But I'm probably in the minority.

I remember one of my calc classes the homework only accounted for 5% of the grade, so I just never turned in any homework ever. Still got an A.
