Imagine movies generated in real-time just for you, with the faces you know, places you know and what not!

Your favorite shows, where the season never ends, and the actors never age.

Sundar is a profitability machine. Google is also an order of magnitude larger than OpenAI. I don’t want all my orders drunk tweeting their thoughts to me. Apple doesn’t say shit but look at what they have achieved.

Apple hits home runs though. Google, correct me if I'm wrong, hasn't had a strong hit for a while!

Confused, what are you implying?
superhumanuser · 2 years ago
There's bias towards certain big name institutions. Perhaps we should prevent discrimination on this basis by omitting those references.

The discrimination in Europe works slightly differently than in the US, as having a native sounding name is just as, or even more, important than having a "right" skin color.

So to be certain you'll avoid discrimination, you'd need to omit both the photo and the name from the CV, and that's not common at all.

Should we also hide the names of the universities we went to and the names of former employers we worked at?

Love it.

One comment: I wish it didn't zoom in when I click a map pin. I prefer the map to stay in the same position.

Wow. A large chunk of the web just died. As if the echoes of millions of past websites cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened

One of the things I've come to really enjoy in Brave is its "Show Wayback Machine prompt on 404 pages" feature. I know this is tangental to your point, but I felt it still worth noting.

Interesting because the content I get on X is far, far more valuable than HN + Reddit + Facebook combined.

It’s the only place you can follow subject matter experts and get their real time thoughts.

I think people on HN just don’t know how to use Twitter?

If you want to use it effectively, you have to utilize lists. Curate your own lists or find someone you respect and follow their lists.

If someone is posting things you don’t enjoy then remove them.

Frankly, if X is causing you to be angry/depressed then a big part of that is on you.

Why is this reply getting downvoted?

On one hand, this is unfortunate since X always directs me to a login page, and Nitter was the only way I could view whatever gets posted nowadays. On the other hand, the cynical side of me is thankful that I have no more desirable means to see the contents of posts on X.

Edit: a similar thing happened with Reddit and Teddit(?). API restrictions effectively killed alternative frontends, so I simply don't look at Reddit posts anymore. I am aware of old.reddit.com, but in the case of Reddit I preferred the alternative frontends not only for no-JS compatibility, but also a (possibly false) sense of privacy

I have not been to Reddit after they effectively shut down RiF.

Doesn't work on Android. Every option has line below it.
