How is this not marketing for large websites? Facebook doesn’t give a shit about censorship, beyond it means a limited audience.

Discover the laws in a current code base? They are usually in the “tests” folder. So anything capable of extracting unit tests is extracting “laws”. One might consider the test name the text of a law. And the AI fills in the details.

So… all that data is literally there for any unauthorized person to walk up and take it. It’s not even suitably encrypted on device? Zero trust in anything Flock says.

“Now” is weird. It doesn’t exist in a cosmic sense. Check out book “the order of time”.

If someone in that meeting quickly raised a hand in an arc, you would notice the “about to throw something” pattern, look and notice the hand holds an eraser, analyze the arc and predict possible flight paths of the eraser. Then possibly no

I hope we have the social infrastructure to support people whose jobs are automated. Because no one, especially a 75-year-old, should starve to death living in poverty.

This is the signal the the government no longer serves the people. Delivering water is a basic government function. If they won’t make water a right, expect large numbers of dead.

But we aren’t talking about that individual energy needs. We are talking about everyone’s energy needs at scale. The economies of scale work differently for billions of mouths vs one mouth.

Religious and too poor to eat meat. Not exactly selling the idea of “strict vegan diet” to a bunch of people with enough cash for meat and incisors in their jaws. You got any examples of cultures en mass with “strict vegan diets” because le

We have zero business using AI en mass right now. We are running random code in user space. It’s a damn virus. We don’t fully understand all of their abilities. We are cruising towards disaster.

Shan’t is a lot of fun. It feels like such a misuse of contractions. But it works. And it’s fun to say. Also fun: yesn’t. Yes, but really no.

It was not a healthy relationship. And things slowly got worse and worse over time. I was too inexperienced to see the red flags. Eventually after 19 years I wised up. Resentment started building up and up and up.

I went under for 2 different surgeries. One of them I had post surgery complications. Years later, we needed to know the year I had the complications. I remembered the surgery, simply look it up and ta-da I got the date. Except, my wife tho

News is hardly the Internet. And everything in News is on the Internet. There are news+ articles available to Apple subscribers. This is hardly “the internet”. This is analogous to premium memberships on websites. Nor is it required that an

They said as much in their intro. Due to a rare defect in our software, sometimes the zip is corrupted. We blame the user for not backing up, or backing up corrupted files. That is when I stopped reading.

Your point being? Hubble in certain circumstances can see narrow and far. If you express this as a cone, you can extrapolate a volume. It might be very useful to have something that can search wide and maybe not as far; nearer Earth dangers
