It is also worse on the "Browse By Subject" selection above the "ranked catalog" on the main page. (eg https://book-prize-index.vercel.app/subjects/science ) which I mostly used.

The "ranked catalog" is much better in that regard, thanks for making me aware of it :)

Index / Subjects / Science gives me: An Immense World: How Animal Senses...

Ranked Catalog (Science filter) gives me: An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realm...

It's not the end of the world, but for a few books it hides the theme a litte, eg

    "A Problem from Hell": America and the Age of Genocide

    "A Problem from Hell": America and...

Because they are the european institutions, eg the EU parliament building, EU comission, etc.

They are mostly office buildings.

I grew in ideas and attempts over the years, and it finally got along far enough I actually made it available. The progress in LLMs made some things much easier that I conceived in 2020, but other things didn't get better.

Now that I made it this far, I had to realize though that it is far from what I had imagined and needs much more work.

But that interpretation would make the second half a moot point, wouldn't it?

> You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.

If you want to say a person can only reason themselves into any position, it could become "You can't reason someone out of a position."

If the major nations that host companies that create those OS models implement export control on top models, there won't be any new OS models with top capabilities.

On my repo the jobs do not get scheduled on the PRs at all, so I assume that separation wouldn't help for todays issue.

In what way is GDPR focused on cookies?

In my experience, developers in online discussions make it seem all about cookies, pretending other ways of tracking don't exist, while the law does not. But it has been a while since I looked into it and I might remember that wrong.

> There usually is no cookie screen when you install one usually (unless it's a web app packaged up as an app).

A lot of games provide opt-in screens, as they heavily rely on ad networks.

> If you read the actual law, it barely mention cookies at all

Now I am confused, didn't you just say it was focused on cookies?

The part that annoys me about the toxicity, or repetetive and annoying topics on reddit, HN, etc. is not that I am unaware that the content is produced by a small fraction. (I underestimated the count! I guessed 2%)

It's that people espouse it: They upvote and retweet it.

> Both sides develop wildly inaccurate beliefs about who the other side actually is.

That was a guess I had for a while. People have a strawman version of their out-groups in mind and quickly map people to that if an unknown person says something that indicates they might be part of the out-group.

> What percentage of the other side supports political violence?

It would be interesting to see the in-group statistic as well: "What percentage of your own side supports policical violence?", in my experience people also justify very shitty behavior as long as its from their in-group. (This plays heavily into the first point of espousing all kinds of shit)

It would be interesting to see if the community check actually changes anything. But the actual data seems to be only possibly for very generic topics - those we have the data on already. Something that would not be available for daily-fresh topics.

For my personal sanity I simply left reddit and stopped opening comments on certain HN posts - of course that does not help with the societal problems. Unfortunately.

My lesson: Boards can be awful and useless even without managers running them! :)

I've been using a simple, standalone kanban to manage my own tasks, though.

This is the weirdest example of "gambling" I have seen in my life. If you'd've written "unprotected sex" I'd see the gambling part, but "extramartial sex" covers so much more than the tiny subset of "whose baby is it" (how many people are there having sex to gamble on who will be the father of a baby? 10?).

This made my day.

> Anyone deliberately facilitating that certainly deserves the worst fate imaginable.

That came in a thread started with a now (justly) removed

> might wake up to their family chopped to pieces

This sets the tone I (and possibly others) interpret that message.

I know we are supposed to charitably interpret what people write on here, but a thread like this makes it really hard, given the tone.

> run MinIO

When people say "s3", they mean "any s3 compatible storage" in my experience, not "amazon s3 specifically" or just "s3 as a protocol".

Wouldn't an agent run by a maintainer require the same scrutiny? An agent is imo "someone else" and not a trusted maintainer.

I believe you can do that with public domain/copyright free material in general. There is no requirement to tell someone that the material you license them is also available under a different one or that your license is not enforceable.

I remember the case of books used for training, where the court found training to be fair use, but the material has to be legally obtained (=Bought instead of pirated the books).

> and usage on it

What do you mean by "usage on it"?
