Have you tried sending them a fake ID? As I understand, these companies are verifying the format of the ID, not the exact details on it. Including all the subtle format details like the checksum of the OCR section. If it looks good, they ad

Heck, a good start would be ensuring displaced workers still get food and shelter as long as we want. Those coal miners? They carried the industrial revolution. We should be treating them as retired heroes when we replace the plant with a s

It's just ordinary business. You always have to get every benefit you can and deny everything you can to your competitors. The basic premise of free market economics is that when everyone does this, it will even out. OpenAI doing every

That's a motivation for source available. You can have commercial copyrighted software that's NUMS. You can deliver the customer source code (slightly customized for traitor-telling of course) and tell them to do what they want bu
