"Most" doctors are obviously not quacks.
You only say this because you're not the one suffering the consequences

Nothing has to give. Police did their work fine for centuries, they can continue doing it without mass surveillance.
Are you aure that in those other times when it happenes it didn't end in catastrophe?

They just seem like facts to me. If the reader reacts with fear, that's because they interpreted those facts as things that induce fear.

It is often easier to review commit-by-commit, provided of course that the developer made atomic commits that make sense on their own.

Reading theae comments is just fucking depressing. How can you ask more of Tim Berners fucking Lee. FFS.

It's not his fault that most people use the web through the lens of a few tech oligopolies. The state of the web is not his fault.

This site used to recognize its heroes, not any more apparently.

He created the thing and made it free. I don't think we can ask more of him.
Re:Suno Studio, a Generative AI DAW on Saturday September 27, 2025 @10:09AM (#45395851)
Many artists don't use samples.

Completely agree with this. "The audience comes last" is a phrase that perfectly encapsulates this sentiment (can't recall who said it).

Somehow it's assumed that artists make music for the audience, but many make it for themselves, because they enjoy the process.

Contrary to other comments in this thread, typing prompts on a keyboard is not the same as picking up a guitar and playing it.

Wouldn't the traffic pattern be similar to watching Netflix?
Re:$100K fee added to H1B applications on Saturday September 20, 2025 @06:13AM (#45311996)
Is there any data that supports these statements? Specifically that the program is abused and that it "hurts" the middle class.

Doesn't Rider have JetBraims AI? It's basically the same thing as Cursor.
Re:Proxmox Donates €10k to the Perl and Raku Foundation on Wednesday July 23, 2025 @02:52PM (#44662665)
This thread has more than 100 comments, so seems it is indeed newsworthy.
Good riddance
I don't get why this is downvoted. I'm gonna guess it's because of "attempted"...
The fact that you can do it in a larger scale is the problem
Same in Portugal
Depends on what the question is.

I'm not one to care for age usually, but I think it's worth mentioning that OP is 15 years old. Well done, great work, please keep building and writing.
I have to admit I also found it weird that scientific american is using a unit of distance as if it was a unit of time.
If you make outrageous claims for which there is abundant proof of the contrary (e.g. flat earth), it's on you to provide proof, it's not on me to pretend that you're not making outrageous claims.

You don't need to "believe" that there's bias, you look at the data and you can tell whether they're biased or not.
No one can possible forget, given that we're reminded daily of it, you know, by the ongoing genocide.
Please. The Israeli government is currently engaged in genocide, and has been illegally occupying neighboring lands for decades. They are not the good guys
I'm more scared of the only country that has ever used nuclear weapons than I am of Iran
The US is the only country that has ever used nuclear weapons. You don't get to do that, and still keep the moral high ground.
