They serve a public purpose - it's something people (citizens = voters) can use to shield themselves from economic bullshit ruining their lives by limiting their financial exposure. I don't really see the value in having millions

Why the rich? Nobody got rich by providing services only to the rich. People get rich by providing services to the masses.

Why do you attribute the bad things to people/entities who have nothing to do with them? The corporations making profit paid taxes on that profit - taxes that your government could've used to do something about the bad stuff. Corp

I don't see why a "capitalist economy" participant would spend a single cent on discrimination of not-customers. Seems to me they would just not care about them, instead of actively discriminating, and they wouldn't try

Or, the community knows that models will always have biases, and so the community makes its software work around that limitation by other means than modifying the model, because that might not be possible at all.

I can't understand how people can keep shouting "it's not AI, it's not really thinking" and then go and label a bunch of numerical weights to be "racist".

Next.js, because that's the easiest way to create a full-stack React project, with great hosting options (Vercel or self-hosted). Auth via Keycloak or similar. Postgres DB. Everything dockerized. CI/CD (I like Gitlab, Github is co

How do you do that with a device with locked bootloader/firmware? Is alternative firmware even available? I don't think so...

Don't let this make you think this is a general feature of electric buses. There is an electric bus fleet (at least 20 buses, probably more) in Hradec Kralove, CZ for 5+ years now and it has never caught fire - and it's always the

There will be nuclear war if UN continues to do nothing, because Russians and Putin especially understand only strength. Given the events in Yugoslavia, they could be doing something. This anti-confrontation stance you speak of is obvious

I wonder how big impact on environment the war in Ukraine has. I guess a huge one - massive fuel depots are burning as we speak, tanks are rolling with their 10l/1km consumption and definitely no DPF, etc. Perhaps UN should focus on st

Yeah, that makes the iPhone hype much more sensible. I remember it as very much underwhelming, I had a phone like that 2 years before it came out, and it had apps.

It was extremely popular brand in Europe for many years. At one time almost everybody had a good Nokia or Sony Ericsson. I saw Motorola Razr like one time in the wild.

No, camera phones were very good since the Sony Ericsson days - ~2006. I have a book from that era all about mobile camera photography, written by a professional photographer, and illustrated only with pictures shot on a Nokia phone. The pi

I can hear my author friends gathering to beat you with hardbacks at the suggestion they're wage-slaving, too! More seriously, I agree it's hard to write a book - but I don't think you can claim it's just like normal job

The information from ADS-B transmitters is public only by design accident (there's no good way to do it otherwise), not because it has to be public. Nowhere it's mandated that the information it shares should be public. And before

Yeah, we learned it as kids at my primary school. Forums and people there will help a lot if you ask nicely. I guess North Koreans have to learn it from other people directly, though... that's probably much harder. Cubans have huge dat

It should be illegal and I really don't think it's legal, but that's up to a judge - that there isn't a specific law that says "exactly this is a crime" doesn't mean there isn't a more general law tha

People shouldn't be doxxing anyone if they don't want to be financially and mentally ruined, that's very simple. Doxxing is typically done from public sources, only very unusually it's some kind of uncovered private info

I don't think even Musk thinks doxxing falls under free speech. That would be like saying "I never committed fraud, it was free speech" when stealing from someone online. Bullshit, not a single free speech absolutist thinks t

It is doxxing the same way tweeting "Little Billy is going to his school now" every time he does so is. Doesn't matter you saw Little Billy from your window.

Where's the promised UN plan? What they published is a nice starter but definitely doesn't cut it when you're asking someone for $6B.

Because he has money and so can easily make everyone listen to him, unlike most other programmers who are stuck behind business/product/finance/management guys.

Where is that elsewhere? I visited some sanctioned places and it was as I said here - yeah they make some stuff, and all of it is shit, doesn't work at all, or breaks down very soon. There's a reason why there's a car repair
