Jailbreak it and get it to tell you to kill yourself or something, record the call, go to the media, "Braintrust AI told me to kill myself!!"

That's fine if the public transport is up to scratch, as well as the cycling infrastructure. Where I live it's woefully inadequate making driving the only viable option for most journeys. This has a knock on effect of making cycli

Where do you get your hands on a legit copy though? It's infuriating, I would happily pay for a real licence for this, and MS makes it basically impossible to do so.

If you think about it, it's crazy how unregulated software development is compared to other industries, considering every industry runs on software. If you screw up as a Doctor or a Solicitor or an Accountant etc, you can get done for

There is something fascinating about people from history who had an idea to do something which is now just normal, but the technology just wasn't there (and people probably thought they were mad). I guess that's why I enjoy read

Kind of off-topic, but I've always thought a good way to suss out what sort of background somebody comes from is to ask them to visualise $1million dollars. People from a "working class" background tend to see a massive pile

This is a good point. I was involved in one startup in particular where "trust" was important. They didn't understand why I was pushing to build a native Android/iOS app and have it on the app store, as opposed to a PWA.
