Exiting with a cool ~$9m. Not too shabby.

And since he's been there since before the IPO, he's probably done pretty well for himself, regardless.

Twitter is hot garbage, that's only gotten worse since Elon took over, but this is really just a problem with government agencies/departments using social media websites as primary avenues of delivering information.

For the unaware:

First posted in 2013, I believe..

The annoying thing is that the annoying guys are more likely to get a date, while they just go about their day. Not because they are better, or because their methods are good, but purely because they approach more people.

I hate making people feel uncomfortable (no matter their gender), so I always struggled finding "spontaneous" dates, or even dancing with strangers at a club/party.

The only thing that really worked for me was using dating apps, where both parties have implicitly indicated that they are looking for dates in general (because they're on the app) and explicitly indicated that they are interested in each other (by liking their profile, or whatever).

Although I've heard the apps have all gotten worse lately, I wouldn't really know, as I found someone on Tinder years ago, and now we're happily married.

For the uninitiated:

As an olive hater and tomato sauce purist:

that's not even a pizza anymore.

If you're drunk or stoned, it's much better to order some delivery than to drive anywhere.

Obviously you could plan ahead to avoid this, but I would rather have gig apps than impaired drivers on the road.

Which, unfortunately, is far too often. In my recent experience..

I love that you found this workaround, but arguably that code path should do the admin check, too.

I like how 3 of them, across almost 20 years, boil down to "learn Python". When's that dude gonna die??

It would be awesome if someone had been querying it with the same prompt periodically (every day or something), to compare how responses have changed over time.

I guess the best time to have done this would have been when it first released, but perhaps the second best time is now..

Needs more baguette!

Thanks DALL-E

Why is this "news"?

Just don't go on Xitter and you won't have these "problems"...

At one point, it just generated cool bioluminescent crabs

AI definitely understands human emotion

Yeah, it seems like it's getting weirdly stricter, but without good reason. If they keep this up, it's going to be completely useless.

At least it ignores it's own warnings sometimes..

Didn't a new Hunger Games movie just hit theaters? I assumed most of this stuff was a result of their marketing campaign..

The title is a bit weird. On my first reading it makes it sound like two different people can have indistinguishable fingerprints. But after reading/skimming the article+paper, it seems like what they've actually done is been able to correlate fingerprints from different fingers on the same person.

So the title makes it sound like they've weakened the basis of fingerprinting as forensic evidence, when in fact they've developed a way to link the different fingerprints from the same criminal so that additional cases could be solved.

e.g. if a criminal only left a thumb print at one crime scene and an index finger print at another, this posed a problem for investigators because they couldn't link them to the same person, but this "AI" approach can link those two different prints to the same person.

I completely agree, and I think another major factor is a function of when you started using Reddit.

I've noticed a trend that many of the people who've moved on from Reddit (or at least the ones who are posting here and in places like Hacker News) joined Reddit 8+ years ago.

I started using Reddit about 14 years ago, and I've definitely noticed a change in the overall vibe of Reddit over those years. There were obvious changes (like cracking down/banning specific subreddits) and there were more subtle changes (like communities growing so large that the comments turned to shit) and there was a departure from a text-heavy, original-content focused haven for like-minded people to a feed full of gifs and inflammatory comment (not to mention ads-that-are-pretending-to-be-posts).

People who have been using it for so many years notice this change, but it was so gradual and over so long a time that they were used to it -- essentially the change was slow enough that we were lulled into accepting the new reality of Reddit.

But then this whole kerfuffle has shaken us out of it and made us realize that it's only going to get worse. So here we are, onto greener pastures.

Now, on the other hand, we have the (many, many) people who started using Reddit more recently. They only know the "new" Reddit. And so they don't get what the big deal is. They think the mods are throwing a fit and the power users are just whiny and "why the hell can't I see my memes?".

They don't understand what we miss about Reddit.

Yeah, can we please just stop talking about him?

Like, especially for things that have absolutely nothing to do with him..
