I've gotten hundreds on android and they've all been blocked automatically. I do have this ever-present 'Spam detected' line in my notifications. I can get rid of it, but I kind of like seeing it, just in case. Every s

There are absolutely zero indicators that Microsoft will ever STOP being privacy-invasive. There's nothing about improving their ability to effectively process this data and draw actionable conclusions from it that makes them more like

Well, just look at the design. State education is designed to get ~97% of pupils to some minimum education level. That means the coursework and schedules are designed specifically for the lowest common denominator of a student. This means

Federal investigators should probably also probe who controls that sizeable chunk of dormant bitcoin that's projected to be valued higher than a significant chunk of the US economy in a few years. This used to be a non-serious question

Corporations have personhood in and of themselves, and not in representation of a collective of people. This is what builds the corporate veil and legally shields investors and operators as individuals, to some degree, from corporate action

Yep, and that fact makes me hopeful. However, it's not unusual for other companies who are not Jetbrains to implement undocumented APIs for internal use only, while exposing a different set publicly. Or even to bake some part of the

You're ignoring key points and cherry picking what to respond to based on your ability to try and twist my words into statements I never made. And you're extrapolating what must be a very obscure reference in the article into some

I don't understand the reference? Is this from a movie or show, or some kind of over-the-top dialogue you're having between made-up characters in your head?

You're presuming that it was AI which killed the kid, rather than some kind of emotional or social condition. It's so easy to call for a ban on a thing that you see as bad when it's an emotional subject, and particularly when

Frankly, the US government should be doing more at this point. All departments, not just legislative or executive. Defense, intelligence, state, education, energy.. It is not unbelievable for the race to AGI (or whatever close enough appr

My hope is that they verge failure in 2 years, then turn to a non-profit. This in turn gets subsidized by DARPA, who by then realize they're WAY behind the curve on AI and the investment is helpful towards keeping the US competitive i

This happens in corporate hackathons. Especially internal ones dreamed up by mid-to-upper management types who wished they worked at a startup. I had one employer years ago who did a 24 hour thing with a crappy prize. They invited employee
