You’re ignoring their point about the greater harm if Blink can spread its tentacles into iOS and complete its own monopoly- a true monoculture would harm every platform and user.

They can stop Michigan judges from granting warrants that fall within this scope, which should stop 90%+ of the problem within their purview. Now the downside is that since they rely on the Federal Constitution in the ruling rather than the

A recent guest (historian) made that point on the Triggernomitry podcast. Stalin, Mao, Castro, Hitler- they were all 'idealists.' They were in it to improve the human (or some subset thereof) condition. And they weren't going

Look at the insane salaries/equity going to AI researchers. Those at the cutting edge of semi manufacturing/design are likely completely capable of reproducing the skills sets of those people- how do they not cut and run? If the g

Sales engineers should be the spirit animals of PMs/SDEs. They often are having to integrate the company's software with the whole stack of the customer. They experience the pain of real world setup/optimization/bugs mor

My understanding is defendants always get to choose, no? So that was an available option they chose not to avail themselves to.

I remember as a kid in the 70’s I first heard about most physical things being empty space. Walking into a wall a few hundred times may have damaged my forehead almost as much as my trust in science…

If states get too onerous the Feds will pass similar, very much less restrictive legislation, which will have the effect of nullifying state legislation due to federal supremacy.

You have to download Google Maps in the first place- my (older teen and adult) kids don’t even have an entry point for Google, they just use Apple’s built in apps + ChatGPT.

Yep- the main issue is multicast is so sparsely utilized that you can go through most of a career in networking with minimal exposure to multicast except on a particular peer link- once you scale support to multi-hop the institutional knowl

If you paid a human author to do the same you’d be breaking no law. Learning is the point of books existing in the first place.

I would generally expect llms to mirror how the average human writes vs the most technically correct firm, so that would track.

You know that isn’t true. Israel could withdraw to the 1969 borders and Iran would be just as dedicated to destroying it.

When you have ARM Windows available that can run Intel Windows software, I don't think that really matters.

Better by a mile than most anime voice work, but lacks the detail that a good voice narrator has on an audio book.

I think the difference it that computers tend to be pretty good at thing we can do autonomically- ride a bike, drive a car in non-novel/dangerous sitations and things that are advanced versions of unreasoned speech - regurgitations&#x2

Sort of. He would still be breaking the law, it’s just that if it’s an ‘official act’ then the judiciary can’t do anything about it, just Congress via impeachment.

This spurs a great memory- my father and my best friend’s father worked together at ADP dealer services in the 70s. Once, during a sleepover my friend (we were around 8 at the time) put the phone on an acoustic coupler modem and used the co

Hardly generic- it is somewhat generic after what has come since, as there has been so much cheap copying of the original.

Can someone explain the orbital mechanics of these sentences?: The constant stretching of such tidal deformation would create friction within the planet that would soak up some of its orbital energy, causing it to edge closer to the star.

How so? Racism vs Asians and Whites and Jews is still racism by the letter of the law.

I don't think anyone is stating it is a mystery, just that no one apparently had been willing to comprehensively do the math until now.

Yep, my parents commissioned an oil back in the 70s that was a near duplicate of another artist's painting- they couldn't have afforded the original artist, so he has not lost anything and the painter did the painting as a hired w
