So you are fine with a court deciding it then? A judge that has no expertise in the subject area but in the matter of law? That was appointed by some party in power in the past?

You both have a point, so I would word it in a different way: if we devoted enough resources to track hackers down no matter where, could we lessen their impact? It would take a crazy amount of resources, like sending in infiltration teams

I was able to get the feed and import it into my favorite podcast app (Overcast). I don’t open the app very often.

Generally, the Apple Store would be a separate company from Apple phones. A user gets to choose which store they want to use on their phone. Along with other things like which map app is the default. This way, the different stores could com

Perhaps considering stakeholders might be a better, but harder to calculate, method. Systems don’t have to treat people for AIDs. People get less sick so they can work more and pay more taxes. Parents are around to raise their children, lea

Sorry to be a downer, but I doubt prop money would look like real money on an X-ray. I’ve seen bundles of cash on a TSA X-ray and it has a distinctive look.

there is nowhere you can self-promote stuff if you do not have social media [with a significant following] They forgot the last bit.

It is in the public interest to have both weather and forecasts. Maybe you are like me and look out the window to see the weather for that day, but millions need accurate weather and forecasts. They include farmers, those that run power gri

The best leads we have are faked images? I get that it is complicated but fraud in one area (images) makes the hard data extremely suspect.

I know we would have to change a lot from how it is set up today, but here are some ideas: - How many times has the results been reproduced by others? - Add another layer of blindness: the person doing the lab work is not the person crunchi

For 1. Those accounts would be set up by customers, so if they didn’t require 2FA, it didn’t happen.

That only makes sense if both sets of traffic don’t interact. Most bridges over highways that have off-ramp traffic have traffic lights.

Never touched Oracle or SQL server. Worked in startups with MySQL or Postgres and BigQuery/Snowflake/Redshift. It has always been “sequel” in all the startups I’ve worked at. I think it just one of those things.

Yeah when I lived in NYC, I came across a lot of people who didn’t have licenses but used other IDs from local government agencies.

Something that causes some friction might absolutely lead to people treating others this way. Like if coworkers stop by your desk to invite you to lunch but you are in a meeting so they go without you. Should they have left a message? Track

I’d recommend listening to the Hard Fork podcast to answer some of these questions. In particular the March 22nd and 29th episodes.

I’d like to highlight the last two paragraphs with two different people quoted: “Google also didn’t say whether it has or is formulating a policy to filter out AI-generated books from Google Books, and it did not remove any of the AI-genera

From what I can tell, this is what the professor posted: “ If you want a girlfriend, get out of the Bay Area. Almost everywhere else on the planet is better for that. I'm not kidding at all. You'll be shocked by the stark differen

Much of the SWAT gear is likely military surplus. My city has part time SWAT but two huge hummers that were built for the military but never deployed. I am not saying that police prioritize their deployment of officers properly. I’m just sa

I believe some part of it is that this is led by the governor, and the governor can’t deploy NYPD on her own. The subway is also a state system, so deploying a state system (National Guard) to another state system makes sense to me.

“Especially the higher up you go in terms of seniority – therefore you have more power and control – the more those sorts of screening tests and psychometric tests are needed,” he said. So the ones who need it most will never be screened. G

Exactly. Would the tone of the letters been different if the column was said to be have written by a man? Likely they would be different. This is what makes discussions about discrimination so hard- it can be very subtle. And it can include

Same for me when I moved to Arizona. California doesn’t let insurers use credit rates to price insurance, but Arizona does.

It’s not the expanding supply of Bitcoin that creates value; it is the people putting money in at higher rates.

by desert_rue 3y ago
That doesn’t mean it will continue to rise in the future. It also isn’t tied to anything outside of these very expensive exchanges. I can’t use bitcoin to buy a candy bar or pay someone to fix my toilet. Nor is there intrinsic worth to it.

The author isn’t thinking this through. Take the lawyer example. Yes, a lawyer will have to review all AI generated work. Even so, the AI generated content and work to revise would quickly be cheaper than any associate. With enough feedback
