- Comment on TikTok now lets parents see their teen's follower/following list, block access during certain hours 5 weeks ago:
First suggestion is impractical. Not going to be able to memorize 100 names to look up and research later
Second suggestion should already be happening to some degree, but doesn’t capture the desired use case.
The use case is this: in physical life, there is a gradient of “boundaries/leashes” to match maturity and development. For example, the gradient of movie ratings, or:
- Very young - stay within arms reach/sight
- Young - stay in the yard/park/neighborhood
- Child - stick with what’s familiar, I’ll be nearby
- Pre-teen - go and try it, I can be right there
- Teen - go and try it yourself, call me if needed
In contrast, digital in many ways is very often all-or-nothing
- Comment on A quarter of startups in Y Combinator's current cohort have codebases that are almost entirely AI-generated 1 month ago:
I think there is a difference. Because software is so flexible and quick to build, it’s orders of magnitude easier to build something known and understood.
A promising startup with its systems in a knot, but their initial team is still on retainer? Brains can be picked, abstraction boundaries placed, surgical rewrites deployed. Despite the mess, they still understand it, and development can expand.
It remains to be seen if AI-generated code is recoverable, if any existing strategies can be applied so humans can contribute, or if the company is forever beholden to AI providers to release a better AI to manage/improve what they’ve already got.

Oh look, emergency vehicles work even better on bike infrastructure than on car infrastructure.
I never see addressed
Don’t say that if you’ve not sincerely tried to seek an answer. It reeks of whataboutism and makes you sound very disingenuous.

In the US? IMO only possible in exclusive environments similar to saunas at spas or membership-based clubs/gyms

Idgi – is it saying that every game is either named “X” or “Y’s X”?
- Comment on Our basic assumptions about photos capturing reality are about to go up in smoke. 7 months ago:
There’s the practical distinction between “everyone can do it with some dedicated intent” (so very few actually bother) vs everyone can do it on a whim"
- Comment on Computer scientists invent an efficient new way to count 10 months ago:
Yes, and that’s the point – to accomplish the task using only what would otherwise be insufficient memory
- Comment on "Digital sovereignty": German federal state of Schleswig-Holstein ditches Microsoft for Linux and Open Source alternatives 1 year ago:
If talking about a closed source app, their whole goal is to move off of hosting closed source systems.
Article says the decision follows a successful pilot project, so they’re willing to absorb the short term costs. Optimistically in the long run, the symbiotic benefits of having a government entity using and supporting a full FOSS system will be huge.

Oh, interesting
- Comment on What. Can I have timing to 3 decimal points please? 1 year ago:
Yes, once you find a game that runs at 1k fps
- Comment on can chromeos be hacked?? 1 year ago:
Technically, anything can be “hacked”, but that’s the same kind of technically as “any car can be broken into”.
Just like there are ways to mitigate getting your car broken into, there are ways to mitigate getting your system compromised.
