> Doctors are already using unregulated artificial intelligence tools such as note-taking virtual assistants and predictive software that helps them diagnose and treat diseases.

That sounds to me like the doctors are making the decisions. And they are regulated.

If they are concerned about malpractice suits due to AI dependence, I'm sure they'll curtail its use or make sure the AI-makers are liable. And that liability is what causes meaningful regulations. That kind of liability is also what separates actual engineering professions from most "software engineering."
Google has always preferred top domains for a very long time, allowing them to abuse the rankings for years.

One relevant example I can remember, OVH is the top result for servers in Japan yet they don't have any in Japan.

That is ridiculous considering the towering apartment blocks you can see anywhere that isn’t covered by a steep mountain in the region. And those get tunneled through by subways so all the places that can be built on are. The same is really true with any mainland Chinese city. And still people complain about the rent being too high.

I agree with you, I also see a political thing here that is entirely a reflection of societies inability to bridge political issues and focus on agreeable national issues at this level. Its entirely of "our" own making.

The inability to establish bipartisanship in Congress to make congressional sessions more productive and not bogged down along party lines as they are today, more often than not (and increasingly so), leaves the administration with little levers to pull.

Given that, we've seen presidents since Reagan use some wonky legal logic to move money around that is very much intended (in the spirit of) something, but used for something else entirely.

Very often the places you have the most flexibility for this is defense, because you have the easiest time making a legal case for it if its ever challenged.

If we didn't have a dysfunctional congress, which is definitely an extension of dysfunctional politics in the US, they could use the correct levers to create subsidies for this via congressional allocation, but as it sits today, you'd never get a bill through congress.
Uber could sell their own devices to users and drivers. The app is _that_ useful for millions (billions?) of people, that people would buy it. People used to buy separate GPS devices, so it's not something out of the ordinary.

That's either dehydration or withdrawal. Caffeine is a diuretic.

I don't think that quite does it. What I'd want -- if you want me to support you -- is access to the chip, libraries, and API documentation.

Best-case would be something I buy for <$2k (if out-of-pocket) or under $5k (if employer). Next best case would be a cloud service with a limited free tier. It's okay if it has barely enough quota that I can develop to it, but the quota should never expire.

(The mistake a lot of services make is to limit free tier to e.g. 30 day or 1 year, rather than hours/month; if I didn't get around to evaluating, switch employers, switch projects, etc. the free tier is gone).

I did sign up for your API service. I won't be able to use it in prod before your (very nice) privacy guarantees are turned into lawyer-compliant regulatory language. But it's an almost ideal fit for my application.
There's also the LG one. Reviews are so-so about the LG one, with lots of complaints about reliability and clothes smelling cooked after drying with the heat pump.
Quite simple really. Imagine you buy a domain (e.g. foo.com) and park it on some popular registrar. Many of those create a few "CNAME" DNS records like ftp.foo.com, mail.foo.com, etc. by default. Then you decide to use Shopify with this domain you bought, so you modify its "A" DNS record to point to Shopify's IP address. Boom, you're now susceptible to this "attack" -- >anyone< can go ahead and register a Shopify account and attach one of your dangling subdomains to it!

Old man checking in. I use the TOPS Steno Pad and PaperMate Gel Ink pens. Light weight, damage resistant, and no power required.

Still works a treat. There's something about writing information down on paper that makes it store in my memory differently. I read volumes of digital text on my monitor every day, but I write very little into the steno book, so almost everything I write gets stored very deeply in my memory and is very easy to recall even when I don't have the original.
Yes, but the assumption is that Moore's law (or something like it) continues way past the point of machines surpassing human intelligence. And maybe the AIs find completely new ways to speed up computing after that.

Hey, best of luck to you both. I've been there with close family members and cancer. It's no fun at all. Easily the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life was just to care and watch.

Make sure to grab family and friends to help out. The want to help out, most of the time, at least. I know it's hard to ask, but make sure to do it anyways.

And yeah, standard generic advice to take care of yourself too. I hated that advice, as there just was never any time to do so. One thing that helped was to schedule that 'me' time in and make others aware of it. If you put it on the schedule, you'll have a better chance of taking it.

Two tips with MDs:

1) Carry and use a notebook in all MD interactions. Just a simple journal is all. Time, medications given, dosages, MD administering, etc. It's a good back up to have, sure, but you'll likely never use it. The real power is when MDs see you writing things down. They take you more seriously and they take themselves more seriously. I think they think that you'll sue now and have some proof. But who knows.

2) If you're in for a long term treatment (1+ nights) put a big bowl of candy outside the door. Nurses etc. will stop by more often to check up on things and generally seem to like you more. Consider putting cigarettes in there too, depending on if your nurses smoke. Then they will really like you and go above and beyond.

Again, best of luck to you both.

FUCK cancer.
This type of SEO spam seems like an area where generative AI (i.e. sophisticated reading systems) will be able to address.

If there was a human curator with infinite time, I think they could wade through this crap and find ten links to authoritative sites that would provide a much better experience. They would do the same type of research that this author did, see how well a site’s recommendations correlated with other review sites (and vice versa to problematic sites), look at the history of reviews and see if they correlated to when products where shipped, look at the authors experience in the review space, etc, etc.

This has to be a direction Google will be going in.

I know I buy sort of expensive products, but most of the things I've bought recently like my christiania bike all have youtube channels detailing their products. I think that is frankly the only real way for brands to advertise to people like me who'll maybe look at reddit threads or similar, but these days you can barely even trust many of those. We bought a Baby Brezza based on recomendations, they have a semi decent youtube with a mix of useful information and advertisement.

A good example of the reddit bit is the robock s8 we bought. 95% of the reviews on reddits tell you to buy the big version with the huge dock... But then there was this one person in one thread who posted about how it was easy to just empty it without the station and that the station was known to rot or mold (not sure how you say that in english). So we bought the smallest s8 version we could and whoever that redditor was, they were absolutely right that it was so easy to maintain it without any of the addons. Roborock doesn't have a good youtube channel, they do have one, but it's really just advertisement.

Anyway, I agree with you. I don't even really use google anymore. I switched to ecosia (it also sucks) out of spite, but it's been as good as google for anything except for when I want to do site:blabla.com in which case I'll !g. Before you recommend it I've used the duck before and it doesn't work for me. Likely because I'm Danish.

This is the "don't anthropomorphize Larry Ellison" defense [0]. Google isn't killing anything because Google is just an algorithm. Your site fares poorly not because Google wants to hurt you but because you don't want to waste your life catering to an algorithm. It's not Google's fault that that you have other priorities like actually helping your readers live a better life!

While it's strictly accurate, it's not a very useful way to look at the world. Google is killing independent sites that spend more time on the content than on SEO. It might be killing those sites in the same way that a volcanic eruption kills wildlife—as an unthinking, uncaring force of nature—but it's still killing them.

I agree with a lot of what you’re saying regarding brand recognition and trust, but if that is how Google works, then they should stop publishing documentation + doing presentations + going on webinars + presenting in panels + discussing on Twitter how much they actually do assess the quality of the content and how much they do care about real product reviews.

Also, putting the Wirecutter in the same bag as Apartment Therapy and Better Homes & Gardens is misguided… looking through the examples on the article, it becomes clear that the majority of those lifestyle magazines are just recommending expensive products and popular devices on Amazon.

I would just go to Wirecutter and Consumer Reports.

First of all, users are more sophisticated than you think. And why you're bringing nationalities into this, I have no idea. And obviously Google isn't going to be surfacing English content like Wirecutter in Spain -- it will surface well-known publications in Spain.

But secondly, even if you were right, it wouldn't matter. Users who click on the first link for everything don't change the relative clickthrough rates. The people who actively choose which links to click on would still be the ones influencing the ranking. Google is smart enough to control for clickthrough rates by their listing in results and knowing how far the user has scrolled.
Well, in some sense they don’t operate on language at all - but on mathematical representation of tokens derived from language.

Some titration of open-minded misinformed comments is probably vital to the functioning of the site; without them, a lot of interesting true stuff is buried as shared subtext among the specialists here, and sails over the heads of everyone else.

This is a problem I've seen in specialist forums elsewhere; the conversation runs out, because nobody's poking the community with wrong stuff, and correcting a wrong statement is intensely more motivating than just making a plain factual statement for its own benefit (also: when you do that, the rest of the community will go "uh, yeah, and?").

It’s not about Google owing anyone traffic, people are upset that Google can’t tell the difference between inauthentic product recommendations and authentic ones. Google clearly wishes they could as well, but it doesn’t scale so they don’t solve the problem.

> your website is less algorithm oriented

Maybe we should refuse to accept Google’s framing. It’s content creators’ job to create great content as judged by people. It’s Google’s job to discover that content and rank it above procedurally generated garbage that is devouring the internet. The fact that Google’s results are dominated by trash isn’t because there’s a lack of good content.
> Now, that a small group of people with very specific opinions and preferences is the same that disproportionally also opt out of sending telemetry... I don't see how that is Mozilla's problem.

I disagree. If you create a piece of software and develop a userbase that disproportionately opts out of telemetry relative to your software's alternatives, congratulations, you won. You got the power users, the developers, the people who care enough to submit quality bug reports, they're all on your side. Game over.

You don't need telemetry to understand what features these users need because they will tell you - loudly and forcefully - in bug reports filed if you break something. Assuming we're talking about open source software, and we are, they may also be the people sending you patches and improvements for these features.

Telemetry is what you need if you're making a mass market product that meets the needs of 80% of users. It isn't necessary, and in fact may not be useful, if you're developing software designed around the needs of the people contributing to the software. Some software tries to do both. But the way you do that isn't by looking exclusively at telemetry and then pretending that what you see there describes the behavior of all user categories, at least when it comports with the plans of your UX team. It's by listening to the people who are most passionate about the software.

First of all, like what? What high-quality signals are there that can't be gamed?

And second of all, what if they do, but users still don't click on it because they don't recognize the name of the site? Is Google supposed to be giving users results that they don't want to click on? What if users are so overwhelmed by the number of sites and figuring out whether or not they're trustworthy, that they just want to stick to publications they recognize?
