I’d suggest that because the implementation didn't happen on Trump’s watch and the vaccine hard sell, mandates, “stretching” of the truth of efficacy during that period was the primary contributors to much of the distrust, it’s defin

> If you see someone up in a tall tower wearing a ghillie suit My first thought would be “that might be the dumbest sniper I have ever seen”…while I was taking cover, because even if they are dumb, they might still be a capable marksman.

Sure, but could a gun also cause a similar shape within the pocket? My point is that you wouldn’t necessarily want an AI that is designed to detect weapons in this manner to ignore a gun shaped object in a pocket because it might be somethi

Pretty sure AI detected a “shape” in a pocket that was created by a chip bag. That is quite a bit different then “AI mistakes chip bag for a gun”

I’ll admit to owning one and I use it. The charging port location is weird and stupid, but I have never needed to charge it while I am using it. When it hits about 15%, I plug it in at the EOD and don’t have to charge it again for maybe a

That was my take too. I am less concerned with an app being simply closed source and much more concerned with closed source coupled with skipping review and the general approved distribution models on the two platforms.

Yes, but it’s also a poor analogy in the sense that AI hasn’t replaced one of the best of the best but has easily surpassed the playing capabilities of every fair, average, and above average player out there. I am not worried about AI repla

Whenever I move a piece of furniture in the house, even slightly, my dog barks at it. After about 10 mins, he shrugs and moves on. Our brains might rebel a bit for a short period at the change, then we adapt.

You can complain about my writing not being civil when you stop the outright (apparently intentional) lying about what I have said. I posted a statement made by the mayor. I have an interpretation of it which results in an opinion. The P

You are an absolute riot. Do you actually live in this reality? Perhaps a couple of parallel worlds have their wires crossed with the nexus being this HN thread. To summarize: I never dunked on that mayor. I literally quoted the mayor’s

My horse is still very alive, it just walked away from your ridiculous spin. You definitely didn’t convince me I was wrong or should even give it another thought, you only further convinced me that I am right about the minimization and spi

Well you specifically asked for evidence of violence in Chicago and you received it. Now you try to minimize it and deflect—just like I said you would. So predictable. The propaganda around this topic is definitely a two sided coin. Thank

Nothing for me to concede. You are arguing against the Mayor’s words and meaning, not mine. I am taking them at face value within the context of the entire statement. > The "abuse of the right to protest" has nothing to do wi

Congrats. You are doing exactly what I said above. I provided a link to a news story from a local PBS affiliate, pulled a direct quote from that very story which it attributed to the mayor and you either didn’t read the source story I pos

You don’t need to chastise me. I quoted the Mayor who was quoted in a local PBS affiliate news report. If you have an issue with it’s accuracy, you should be reaching out to that affiliate and take issue with their reporting.

What I think he does well, perhaps his true genius—-is that he is willing to put the capital into transformative ideas that have an exceptionally long payback and has the patience to wait for those returns.

Did you also happen to notice the quotes around my use of that word? Apparently not. But now that I have pointed that out to you why do you suppose I did that? That was a sarcastic reference to the original claim. You also attribute to me
