Try Inoreader Press h to see the shortcuts. It's very efficient and well organized. I go through 500 or so articles a day in about an hour (easily skipping 90% of them)

If we had this in 1997, maybe we could have prevented the Google bot and its ilk from crawling the web for their "search engines".

We mustn't stop with AI. We need to be very concerned that some humans might memorize 42% of a copyrighted work well enough to reproduce 50-token excerpts at least half the time, and we may need to take measures to prevent this from happening, or at least make sure those humans aren't allowed to interact with other people online. We don't need another Fahrenheit 451 situation on our hands.

Actually I stopped using JACK and now I use PipeWire

Why only offer CS when CS2 has been out for months? Come on Michigan. Do Better

quora is only site I've found so consistently useless which constantly showed up at the top of google search results that I've gone to the trouble to explicitly put "-site:quora.com" in my google searches. I welcome anything which hastens its demise, even if it is our new AI overlords.

I have found at international conferences, this is an exaggeration of course, but it seems like everyone speaks English but the Japanese. A lot of time the people presenting a paper are not the original researchers because they speak no English and aren't at the conference, and the researchers almost exclusively reference other Japanese research. To me it's impressive how much they are able to do with such a relatively closed ecosystem.

For Python, PyScript built on Pyodide is every new but already pretty impressive.

cautionary tale for investors in an authoritarian country dependent on the whims of a single ruler.

As opposed to an authoritarian country dependent on the whims of corporate lobbyists and unelected bureaucrats controlling the levers of the financial system.

I was looking forward to the videos but I couldn't find them. Do these monkeys have Twitch channels?

It's inevitable that as multinational corporations descend purity spirals of virtue signalling they're going to run into the dubious claims endemic to geopolitical posturing. Companies like Intel need to decide whether they're going to be global or local and not try to be both, or they're going to keep needlessly getting stuck on both sides of issues they shouldn't need to care about.

China has more the 4x the population of the US, so for a lot of those numbers, it should be surprising if the US is even close to China. I'd be more interested in per capita numbers, or a comparison of China vs the entire West, which is the real competition.

The "Trickle-Down Economic Theory, which posits that cutting taxes on the rich will 'trickle down' to those below" was a political marketing construct used in the 1980s. This seems like a lot of pomp for such a naked strawman. Plus the 1980s was a long time ago... is Billy Mitchell involved in this study?

China doesn't want Foreign Businesses having the data the Chinese Government gets to collect, collate and analyze. It's not about privacy for the Chinese people. The US wants to prevent foreign companies like ByteDance from collecting data about US residents too.

Show us that the Internet still recognizes censorship as damage and routes around it.

Most of the censorship on the internet is done by those companies, so routing around it means not using them, but they are pretty close to monopolies in the Anglosphere at least.

That's a problem for countries like Russia if information countervailing the official NATO or EU narratives against Russia (or Putin) is censored, because that essentially makes those platforms information warfare weapons.
