    Kind of joke, but, be irrelevant? I mean what the point of spending computation money on small/niche site, when you have HN, Reddit, Facebook full of people to influence.

    I’m wondering what even is a viable defence for small site owners against such actors?

    What about living objects? Imagine that instead of using hundreds of rockets to build a base on the Moon/Mars you just need to simply send one person practically without luggage.

    Objects will remain in their original state when stored in an inventory. From their perspective, no time has passed.

    A bit strange article.

    Caution, short rant ahead, ignore if necessary:

    No one wants to live in Tohmajarvi, there are no jobs," said the 41-year-old motel owner Aleksander Kuznetsov, who like the rest of its Russian community, is now cut off from relatives on the other side of the frontier.
    "People don't need war, people need a good life, a normal life," he said.

    As a Ukrainian I kinda hate this weak statements.
    "People don't need war" is not enough.

    "People should stop this war immediately. Russian people should stop this war immediately" is good statements imho.

    Upd:
    Uff. I understand that we all are people, we all want safety for our family and our relative. I understand that direct confrontation with Russians that direct this war can have consequence, but passive and quite "don't need war" is just not enough.

    Drake Maijstral series from Walter Jon Williams. It's an SF comedy of manners series about the aristocratic burglar Drake Maijstral. I did read this series few times long time ago, and really-really enjoyed it. It's easy reading, world building has interesting elements (don't want to spoil) and I definitely can recommend it.

    Thanks for sharing, quite interesting and consice article. It kind of confirms my feeling that list of desired traits/properties on dating sites doesn’t intersects with who we choose as partner.

    Uf... I have feeling that I read exactly the same article in the last two years like dozens of time.

    Founder of AI startup: "AI finally can replace developer. Just use the latest model. It finally good.".

    And for me personally AI constantly fail to do the half of the simple tasks. Sometime it works, most of the time I need to verify/fix every point of task. Personally for me it would be simpler and maybe quicker just to do a task manually.

    Uf... Maybe I'm using it wrong, but what bothers me is that: why every AI startup is trying to sell AI product instead of just doing development themselves using their own AI product?

    Upd: to explain a bit, Im not developing some new small app using AI, I'm trying to make AI help me with development/fixes of quite large existing codebase.

    I`m a bit too late to comment, but for me what irks me is that wireless mouse/keyboard need separate receiver. And each company has unique receiver, and sometime different model of mouse/keyboard even from the same company require unique receivers which keeps USB ports occupied everytime.

    Apart from that I did not feel/did not find any difference between wireless/wired.
    Yes, if you have a lot of electronics or wires hanging out from you pc/laptop wireless connection can hiccup sometime, but quite often its easy to resolve.
