I don't think the guy in the first half of the video is one of the mods, doesn't seem like they mention anything about his involvement and then at around 3:30 introduces a woman as one of the mods of that sub.

I honestly get it if people don't want to lose touch, but one thing to do is at least asking people if they can contact you other ways, I've asked family members to send me emails instead of facebook messages and they were willing to, it's obvious at this point to most people why someone would want to quit facebook.

Yeah, I estimated the number of websites on that list and it's around 100k

This does seem in poor taste by Polymarket, it looks like things to bet on are suggested by users but actually put on the site by the company itself. They should probably have a rule against bets that incentivize breaking the law this directly.

I read it some time ago before it was hyped up as much, saw it as a fun and interesting read but yeah a little shallow and action movie esque. It is definitely worth reading for the premise if you are a science fiction fan though, that aspect is solid, and I liked how it gives some details about Chinese culture and history that I wasn't very familiar with.

To be fair, in the quoted passage the author is explicitly not referring to Bolt, but asking for explanations of specific, probably small scope issues from non-agentic AI tools.

Personally even while in school for CS I spent a large number of hours staring at a screen being totally unsure how to proceed to figure out what I didn't understand, most of it trivial details, or making random edits and hoping it would fix something. I'm sure there are advantages to learning by stumbling around, but I really don't think it's the ideal way unless you're already a very methodically curious person.

The temptation to jump directly to asking the AI to just do everything for you without yourself understanding it is definitely going to be a stumbling block for people learning, and I'm not sure if there's a good way around that one, but otoh something available 24/7 that can mostly accurately answer beginner questions in context and as you have worded them seems like it would be crazy helpful, so many times I just wasn't able to progress until I could get some attention from someone.

I think it would be better to have rules against very low effort or unsourced/potentially misleading content, not all possible uses of AI are necessarily "slop" and the witch hunting of even non-AI stuff can get pretty bad.

In the 90s I would go to the school library to print out walkthroughs from the internet, to supplement the occasional relevant walkthroughs I could find in magazines. Realistically there was absolutely no way I was figuring out most of the puzzles on my own as a child, games got way more user friendly and self explanatory since then.

various developers have either offered free versions of their games or moved to selling them directly from their own websites while they remain delisted elsewhere.

I wonder if there's some way to aggregate or maintain an index of these

What is the bill they are talking about and what does it actually do?

There isn’t going to be an achievement screen when you die.

The Block BEARD bill broadly applies to service providers as defined in section 512(k)(1)(A) of the DMCA. This is a broad definition that applies to residential ISPs, but also to search engines, social media platforms, and DNS resolvers.

Service providers with fewer than 50,000 subscribers are explicitly excluded

So I was reading this post and decided to make the tool described, as a userscript (I credit ChatGPT with doing most of the work, which went pretty quickly). To use it, install a compatible userscript browser extension such as https://violentmonkey.github.io/ , then press install on the linked page. Reddit comments should now have a 'copy-context' button that will put the comment chain in your clipboard. I made it for old.reddit so probably won't work with the redesign. Another limitation is that it will only work to copy what is on the current page, so if the comment chain is too deep it's not going to get all of it.

Any feedback is welcome. Also if someone who can read javascript wants to give it a once-over and confirm for people that it isn't malicious that would be cool too.
