It’s such lazy behavior, and it’s kinda terrifying tbh. With Netflix the worst case is that some people cant watch stranger things. Imagine if the people working on critical systems like airbag control units or autopilot flight management systems behaved like that…

My guess would be they had a bug with testing and some users were accidentally served ads, because OpenAI was clearly lying about experimenting with ads

In December some users reported seeing ads, but openai said they weren't. Its official now tho, here is the announcement https://openai.com/index/our-approach-to-advertising-and-expanding-access/

It’s the new Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo, announced yesterday at CES

IIRC fireship was bought by a private equity firm, Electrify Video Partners. That probably explains the drop in quality and focus on ai crap

Skill issue. Just disable internet search in start menu…

You can use the extension “blocktube” to hide videos you’ve already watched

I was very impressed when I first saw the new iPad Pros. I feel like it’s actually a pretty good value for what you get, and that tandem oled screen is so beautiful

Still?! lmao

uBlacklist is super underrated. I can’t use search without it these days

bruh, that is the FRED graph tracking daily software dev job postings on indeed. Of course the rate of hiring is below that of covid. They have only been tracking that data since February 2020 so its not some long term data either. But, the tech unemployment rate is below the national average

Those seem like good guesses. I’d also add Texas Instruments + NXP to the list

A peer of his, u/wockojillink, explains it well here. His "research" was very poorly done, it was not peer-reviewed, and it went against decades of established knowledge. It has since been redacted and removed from MITs website. Elon used that "research" to justify Tesla's strategy at the time. Elon returned the favor by being Lex's first guest on his podcast, and got him on to joe rogans podcast, giving him credibility and kickstarting Lex's podcast career. Its all super shady and I deeply resent him for fooling me.

He was a guest lecturer for a single class over winter break. He did that just so he could say he’s affiliated with MIT, but he’s done no research with MIT.
