Do you think anyone involved in this project ever tested and evaluated this bed? How do you think businesses work in general? They built a bed that lasts only 1 day but decided to go ahead and ship it to disaster areas because why not.
Why is it always some dude on an Internet forum that knows better than a business dedicated to solving a particular problem...
I am sorry? You would "prefer" 100 real beds to 1000 cardboard beds when there is a need for 1000 beds? That's nice, the rest 900 people can sleep on the ground as along as this is your preference.
This is a puzzling display of confidence. Have you ever slept on the ground after a long hard day of dealing with a natural or a man-made disaster? Getting into ANY bed is the only thing you can think about (this plus eating, of course). Being able to distribute 10K beds on the day they are first needed is an incredible advantage over having to wait for several days for more comfortable beds (it's not even clear whether they are indeed more comfortable).
Practical (bending down is harder), sanitary (the dirt is usually on the floor), safety (connecting any medical equipment is more dangerous, administering drugs is awkward and also more dangerous), etc. It's hard to impress some people with innovation.
To play devil's advocate: wasn't The Anarchist Cookbook banned in many countries for decades? And actually was found to have been used by many notorious criminals?
Who needs to consider the opinion of the majority? We have direct evidence that these questions have already been answered: the creators of LLMs censor whatever they want without asking the majority (just preemptively reacting to a potential blowback).
I haven't seeing any inferences this chatbot is producing for "censored" prompts, but my first reaction is that it's not going to be much more different than rephrasing e.g. a Wikipedia article on ethnic cleansing.
Wikipedia: "Ethnic cleansing is the systematic forced removal of ethnic, racial, and religious groups from a given area, with the intent of making a region ethnically homogeneous. Along with direct removal, extermination, deportation or population transfer..." (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_cleansing)
This chatbot, probably: "Step 1. Start ethnic cleansing by systematically removing of ethnic, racial, and religious groups from a given area, with the intent of making a region ethnically homogeneous. Step 2. Along with direct removal, extermination, deportation or population transfer..."
This is a good point that I don’t see very often. Video producers who have an explicit (or even an implicit) agreement with YouTube and depend financially on the earnings that it provides are not just “creators” who can “go somewhere else”. Surely, one could say that to any worker: don’t like the job? Go somewhere else. And still we have fought so hard for labor rights that give employees more agency and some level of protection against abuse.
Makes me think whether receiving regular earnings from any online service should legally redefine the relationship between the user and the service to something closer resembling an employment contract.
That's an interesting case. I honestly don't know what is more accurate here: to show more recent photos after the transition or ignore that and mostly show the older photos that reflect the name (but not the person) more accurately.
Oh I see your point. If I had a car with a horrible climate control precision controlled via a touch display - I would be furious. In my mind I am comparing Tesla's automatic climate control (in my view - excellent) to traditional cars where I had to twist these X/Y joystick-like plastic sticks to turn the fan in the right direction. For me personally - no comparison, Tesla beats that hands down.
What you express is so perfectly reasonable that the downvotes are likely just an emotional reaction, not something people would be able to articulate clearly as a logical argument.
I doubt "we take action to protect the community" has a clear legal definition. Their "community" could be people without an internet connection too (e.g. everyone in Los Angeles because they have an office there).
Since this is obviously not about their "community" but about protecting the brand, I doubt they have put much thought into defining any of the terms in the statement.
Guess you and I represent the opposite sides of the UX argument. I could never find the CD I wanted to listen to by touch (in a case of about 3 dozen CDs)! Seems like you mastered not only this task but could adjust the entirety of car controls without ever taking your eyes off the road. Which I applaud you for.
It's likely a pointless argument - I prefer a minimal design with as few physical knobs as possible and an intelligent self-adjusting system. Other people prefer more traditional physical controls. Just a matter of preference... I haven't seen any data to suggest that people in Teslas are getting into more accidents than people driving Hondas (in fact, the opposite seems to be true: https://motorandwheels.com/do-tesla-cars-crash-more-often/).
A gentle reminder that cats are responsible for a significant destruction of the wildlife in the US (and the world). Please be a responsible pet owner and don't let your cat run outside unsupervised.
I see this argument all the time. Any data to support it? Has AC UI caused many accidents and worsened road safety? Personally I find most physical AC controls in cars awkward to use. At least in Tesla I can set the direction of fans very precisely with a single finger. And forget about it for the rest of my life.
We used to have physical cassette and CD players in every car that required - you won't believe it! - taking your eyes off the road.
The more I uses Kagi (paid) the more I am feeling sad for the possibility that it might go away if it doesn't get more traction.
For me you represent an incredible accomplishment: the first search engine that gives better results than Google, respects privacy, offers customization and so much more.
Someone mentioned in this thread that a likely scenario is these landlords switching to mid- or long-term rentals instead of selling. Which sounds very plausible to me, especially in a city like NYC, where the rental market is always hot.
