I was rather explicit about that, you memorize them from trusted sources (or directly observe them). There's no question. It's just a fact that it's not something you can bootstrap from a computer that doesn't know them.

I feel like you're trying to twist my words into something they don't resemble at all. I'm not saying anything is vulnerable to anything. I am saying both humans and AI cannot simply make most facts up - they need to go out

Most facts about the world can't be deduced from logic. They're just facts, to memorize. The King's lefthanded. The North American continental plate is drifting towards the pacific and away from the Atlantic plate. There&#x27

Time dilation for one. As you get closer to a black hole, an observer far away sees it as if time is slowing down for you. Not really sure how this changes the Big O analysis.

Hard to say without being a prophet. There's a non-zero chance we follow Trump/MAGA, but I would say its unlikely. My impression is that politically and culturally we have been becoming less welcoming to less well off immigrants.

I don't believe this is about disinformation at all. It's about not letting hostile state actors have an off switch for our infrastructure (only really relevant in wartime), or to be able to man in the middle it at will (relevant

As I've describe elsewhere in this thread I've read what appear to be the relevant sections of the bill, and have concluded the headline is entirely unjustified. You're welcome to respond to those posts if you believe I misse

Huawei gear has not been banned, unfortunately. There's been some progress in removing it, but ultimately the telecoms have refused to do so fully. Laws to get this done were in the process of being passed, but not passed, when the Tru

No. The government has tried to get telecoms to remove Huawei equipment. They have successfully resisted. This bill appears to exist in large part to change that, specifically. This bill does not allow the minister to remove services from

Realistically the conditions I imagine being allowed under this statute are things like the customer doesn't use [this] hardware and the customer isn't given access to things like BGP. Whatever conditions you impose they're g

The globe falls on the conservative side of things. The star is currently in a weird middle ground where it was somewhat left but it is being moved somewhat right by its new owners. CBC is reasonably neutral. Highly partisan news is general

I don't have more charitable interpretations, I have more correct interpretations. The cannons of statutory interpretation are not a matter of charity, they are a matter of how laws are read. 15.2(2)(d) cannot as a matter of law be u

Regulating imported equipment doesn't give you the ability to go back retroactively and say "shit, actually we need you to pull out all the equipment from <company> because it's a security problem". Or the ability

The headline is not true because "impose conditions" is not "strip". "Strip" would look like 15.2(2)(e) and (f) except targeting the ISPs customers instead of their suppliers. Imposing conditions does not as a

At best you could compare them to fox news, but they don't compare favourably even to that. They are admittedly maybe not quite as bad as Breitbart but it's close enough in my opinion.

Emergency powers don't give you ability to unwind time and not buy Huawei equipment in the past. This bill appears to almost entirely be about allowing the government to exercise control over the telecommunications supply chain... whic

Governor in Council effectively refers to the cabinet, i.e. the senior members of the party that has formed the government. I.e. it remains a political decision by elected members of parliament to do that, but it's a subset instead of

You do not, ever, need base load power. Base load power is by definition power generation that does not follow the demand curve because it is uneconomical to do so. In this way it is entirely similar to solar and wind in that it cannot, by

I think they might be laughing at 800 watts to charge a laptop or small fridge. Most laptop chargers are a fraction of that. Full sized fridges might use slightly more power than that to spin up the compressor, but their steady state energy
