You fire them as of a date two months from now. For those two months they are technically still employed, but do not have to come to work unless asked. Just like when you resign with two weeks notice, you tell them you're going to end

You subsidize things you want people to do. If you simply set the standards higher they will cost more to build, fewer new homes will be built and they will be more expensive, which means only "people with money" will be able to a

There is no counter argument. This person was assigned their opinions by their chosen Internet tribe and has nothing to offer but feigned incredulity that anyone could possibly think differently than they do. 100% bluster, 0% substance.

Sure, just like a human can manually draw something that infringes copyright, they can use the AI to draw something that infringes copyright. It's the human infringing the copyright, not the AI. But the fact that the human looked at a

The AI did not create anything. It responded to a prompt given by a human to generate an output. Just like photoshop responds to someone moving the mouse and clicking or a paintbrush responds to being dragged across a canvas. So any transfo

I've played around a bit with Stable Diffusion and as far as I can tell, it's just a new tool, like a much better paintbrush. It still needs a human to tell it what to paint, and the best outputs generally require hours of refinem

In the height of the pandemic when people were grasping desperately at anything that appeared to help (wiping down groceries, holding your breath to “prove” you didn’t have covid, drinking fish tank cleaner etc) I have to admit it makes sen

Ah yes, Biden the former vice president and 40 year career politician was a political naïf who had no influence whatsoever because he was not in office at the time. Of course.

They’re telling people the truth about how the decisions were made. Complaining that this “affects public opinion” and that the emails were “sensitive“ is just a fancy way of saying that what the public was previously told were lies.

Nothing you write in a work email is private. Everyone knows this. Never write anything in an email that you wouldn’t want read in court.

There are over a billion people in India. There are probably more people in India who would like to move to the US than there are people currently in the US. I’m sympathetic, but it’s not really feasible for the US to accommodate everyone i
