Same in Australia, massive outages when Optus broke their shit a second time

This probably the best approach, otherwise we end up with essays about their grandmother's love for certain recipes and the inspiration that their cooking was.

Plus, half the time people just want to share something cool they found.

I don't really get why people are up in arms at this stuff. I hate the idea of doing these type of interviews, sure. But my grad program had 3k applications, 1k video interviews, 300 in person interviews, and only 100 actual roles. How the fuck else do they expect people to handle the sheer size of applications in management/HR roles?

I'm surprised nobody mentioned a browser, never thought to go beyond it. Any reason people have/prefer dedicated software aside from a browser?

I went in with a 4 year degree, the other grad next to me went in with a 6 month kinda masters. You can pull it off if you try hard enough and know your shit, wish I'd known that before I wasted so long at uni.

It will be interesting to see how effective it is, I got around Netflix by just using browser versions. They did a shit job and haven't bothered to fix it.

I was curious if a robots.txt equivalent exists for AI training data, and there was some solid points here:

If I go to your writing, I read it & learn from it. Your writing influences my future writing. We've been okay with this as long as it's not a blatant forgery.

If a computer goes to your writing, it reads it & learns from it. Your writing influences its future writing. It seems we are not okay with this, even if it isn't blatant forgery.

[AI at the moment is] different because the company is re-using your material to create a product they are going to sell. I'm not sure if I believe that is so different than a human employee doing the same thing.

I still think we should have the ability to opt out like we do with search engines and webcrawlers, but if the algorithm works ideally and learns but does not recycle content, is it truly any different from a factory of workers pumping out clones of popular series on Amazon? I honestly don't know the answer to that.

I joined maybe 6 years ago, and there was a bit of shit talking and most posts had a troll answer hitting the most votes for some reason, but it was usually pretty good to scroll straight past and find some really insightful comments. There was a lot of good stuff around reddit, but slowly the absurb number of awards, NFT avatars, reposts, and ads every third post started to corrupt it. It was simple enough to switch to a third party app for quite a while, but the garbage slowly took over.

Even if they hadn't pulled 3rd party apps, it was getting pretty close a point where it wasn't worth scrolling past the bullshit.

Wow that's the whole article? I guess the TL;DR is "pay me to find out literally anything"

If it's over VPN, then it could be your VPN server got flagged. If not, then it's probably just an unusual number of queries. Usually works to wait a few minutes either way.

(Intel)[https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005511/wireless.html) has a list of compatible cards and their drivers which may help, follow the instructions and reboot to run usually.

If it's an adaptor there's odds it's not designed for it, I had issues with a USB mounted adaptor myself.

The key to good conversation is finding something interesting in what they say and delving into it. Why did they go there? What did they like about it? Where are they going next?

The key to boring conversation is the opposite, short answers with no room to navigate. Oh, I guess. Thats nice. Not much really.
