People depend on the state. Someone has to be the adult in the room. If your marriage fails what do you do with the kids? You abandon them because you don’t want to clean up?

Good advice. I’ll just add the little asterisk: be aware that the more a pet is “pure race” the more they will suffer from in-breading issues. Expensive instagrammable cats generally come with expensive doctor bills.

Yes I agree that is definitely bad optics. I get it. Other people are worse than me, so I have no responsibility and do not have to change anything. Same thing my kids say about their scholastic results. Very appealing, I get it. Unfortunat

I'm by no means a communist or ecology maniac. And it is true that if they sequester the CO2 that they generate, it's their entirely their business. The problem is, the actions of others have an effect on me, my kids, and the rest

Sure. It is true that violence and unrest is something that happens more often. And not everyone that day came to storm the senate. But, as usual, this is a case of false equivalency. Can we agree that when violence results in penetration o

In any sane democracy I would agree with you. But this POTUS has pardoned 1500 people that actively participates in an insurrection, some of who hurt and even killed police officers. He's pardoned a the Dread Pirate Roberts. All of tho

Not a lawyer but I believe that “with prejudice” means that the judge denies appeals (so yes generally it means the case is considered frivolous)

While it is true that there is always controversy, this does not mean that there is equivalency. Yes, every president has pardons that are arguable (Biden pardoning his son, for example). And anyone pardoned has been found guilty of a crime

Cheating was not allowed according to the terms and conditions.

On the UK though, computer data is proof. If the computer says you cheated, it’s proven. This is about to change though, since the national postal services got a whole bunch of people convicted of fraud based on a system they knew buggy.

Generally the way you solve that is by having the low entropy key give access to a hardware-based key store, like TPM. Those can be made tamper proof and throttled. I.e. the key is destroyed if you try to access the store by probing it, and

When evaluating and making purchasing decisions for my security department, I have the same dislike of this approach. And generally for me it is a red flag. Not (just) because of price gauging, but also because generally it is indicative of

those engineering cameras were not your regular run-of-the mill cameras neither. NASA published a 45 min documentary of the 10-15 engineering cameras of an STS launch., with comments on the engineering aspets of the launch procedure. Very b

In the 90’s I worked at an ISP. We had very generous policies for web pages hosted on our servers. Those web pages generated outgoing traffic that balanced (partly) out incoming traffic and gave us a negotiating position for peering agreeme

What he's trying to say, is that compelling content is not necessarily what you think it is. There's whole subcultures of people doing unboxing videos. People framing existing videos as "unintentional ASMR" ( https:&#x2F

Having personally lived through the 90's and 00's, I can confirm that: * Sadam Houssein (and Kadhafi, and Khomeini) regularly moaned about the US * everybody was indeed aware of them * and everyone ignored them * for most people o

Yea, Spanish and French (well, Parisian) often suffer from that blight =) Perhaps try slowing down the video? Also, there is a French / German public broadcaster called Arte. They have amazing content (documentaries, concerts, etc). Ge

I received 4 years of schoolboy-level French education in high-school. Totally sucked at it, and dropped it the moment I could. I moved to France in 2007, married a French girl in 2011. I obtained French nationality beginning last year. Dur

IANAL but it would seem to me that one party consent just means you can record it. It does not automatically mean you can divulge. And since you agreed to the chatham rules not to (i.e. you entered into a contract) you can still be liable f

Mind you, feminists had a woman, often several, in every household. My guess is that if race was determined at birth by chance (instead of genetics) we would have the same racial distribution on a societal level but race issues would move f

Like you I am highly skeptical of bullish AI narratives, even if AI clearly represents value. However, your analysis has one flaw. Our biggest corporate customer is unwilling to give testimonials about our (niche) application, because it re

I think the fear is not that there is no justice to help them. The point is that when exceptional measures are needed, you want to know how far you can go, without it coming back to you in the months afterwards. It's a bit like InfoSec

Being interrupted by people at your desk is a known productivity issue. Why would phones be different ? When I work at home or during evenings when I can focus for long duration my productivity explodes. I have no issue believing the level

We are. Plateauing doesnt mean you don't book progress. Arguably that is what you would call "plateaud". The argument of plateauing is not that AI is fundamentally impossible. The argument is that just dumping more data and m

Fortunately for OpenAI the contract states that they get to say when they have invented AGI. Note: they announced recently that that they will have invented AGI in precisely 1000 days.

Ideally, sure. But it will result in people stretching their tires more and more, and thus more accidents. We already tax 'distance' by putting tax on the petrol.

From your perspective the war started in 2022. In reality that phase of the war started before. Russia did not improvise this war. They started disrupting the supply in 2021 to ensure that Europe would not fill their strategic reserves &#x2
