The government as the strongest central power identifying weak or struggling areas of the country that needs help makes sense. That's like primary advantage of central power in the first place. The issue is that things like lobbying en

Why is me buying my own book to bring it to the best seller list any different than any other purchaser? Stocks are supposed to be a share of ownership in a company, and the price goes up and down because being an owner of a company goes up

I meant more because people are holding objects or their hand is just at an angle where all fingers are not visible in the picture. I don't understand how neutral networks operate, but my layman's guess is that when you sometimes

I have no idea if this is actually the case with early Lisp, but when I was making my own vaguely Lisp-alike interpreter, it became awfully tempting to make everything into a list. After all, arrays are lists, strings are lists of character

I used to listen to a lake background noise sound, I would just have it on for hours while programming or relaxing. But at some point I heard that there was a little plopping sound, just some water that splashed in a certain way to produce

One issue I know that drives many NSFW artists to crypto payments is that things like paypal won't service them.

Yeah, I'm 100% for forgiving and giving people a second chance. It's no different than a black hat hacker becoming a security researcher. But there is a clear conflict of interest if he is still actively engaging in the dubious be

If I ask an LLM a very complex and specific question 500 times, if it just doesn't know the facts you'll still get the wrong answer 500 times. That's understandable. The real problem is when the AI lies/hallucinates anot

Sure, but names aren't what's important here. It's the logical conclusion to capitalism, even if it's more fitting to call it corporatism. Either the government is big and the corporations lobbies and gets undue influenc

Modern capitalism has created a sort of new type of nobility out of corporations, a layer of entities above that of citizens. Just as you say, their actions are not judged by the same standard we'd use for normal people, and they can a

How is this compatible with being a non-profit?

It does set legal precedent though which is great.

Personally I find both of these assumptions to be unlikely to be true. Obviously a subjective evaluation, but they don't ring true to me.

That does make sense, but on the flipside, let's say that they start advertising discounts on TV, but when people try to pay the reduced rate they say "according to our ToS that TV ad was not authorized to lower the price". O

Hold on the real nugget here is that apparently document.all is a falsy object. Why in the world would that be the case?!?
