The power rests with the state and federal accreditation bodies. Not sure how those in the current power structure would support something like this.

YES - I hope we see a return to mid-2000s approaches for web applications across the board. I'll take 2008 Google Maps over 2021 Google maps. Heck, I'll take 2008 Google SEARCH over 2021 Google Search. Things have regressed over t

Clearly this is not very defensible. More data, more GPUs, more time, and you have similar or better results. There's a reason why Google, FB, Amazon haven't bitten the same bullet for an exclusive license.

How else would you be able to sell a $1 Billion exclusive license to Microsoft?

GPT-3 is the most overrated game in town. And Microsoft spending $1 Billion for an exclusive license will seem really foolish a few years from now.

This is a fantastic little video on this topic if you're interested in digging further: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnFVBfhpprU . And a bit more from 60 minutes that makes a stronger point about the conspiracy and w

From the above referenced article: "For the record, there was a conspiracy according to the 1949 U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in UNITED STATES v. NATIONAL CITY LINES, Inc., et al. " and more to the point it actually says it up

I thought that was factored in when he talked about 3 full-hours of 200W across the full day? The day in Australia is certainly longer than 3 hours, so I figured that accounted for panel inefficiencies, indirect sunlight, and other such thi

In this case, I actually learned quite a bit about how map making was done in the early 1960s and the technology and processes involved. I learned more in a shorter time than many YouTube videos of today. And todays' YouTube videos suf

The future you cite is also our past. In the 1930s most large urban cities had plenty of non-car transportation options, including electric-powered or cable-pulled streetcars, overhead-powered electric as well as gas-powered buses, trams, l

I do like these old style of videos. Straight and to the point, no influencer posing or ad breaks, and cheery music. I wonder why this style went out of fashion? It does seem old fashioned now, but I wouldn't mind this making a resurge

This is the one and only answer ;) Of course the alternative to making free customers the product is to upsell free customers to a paid plan and factor in the conversion rate when using free as a marketing method. But if the free product is

No one has answered the question yet as to why this will succeed where Second Life failed. Is it the power of market coercion and the ad revenue stream?

Why as a wall wart? Odds of discovery and removal are high. Instead fit it into a lightbulb form factor, and replace a lightblub in the restroom. Or you can be SUPER brave and fit it into a wall outlet form factor and replace the whole outl

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the rebrand? If Facebook is going all in on Meta, wouldn't they want people to think Meta does X instead of Facebook does X? Especially if they're trying to distance themselves from the incr

My point was that Google's rebrand DIDN'T work. Very few people know Google as Alphabet. They still know it as Google (the people on the street that is). So, will Facebook's rebrand have the effect of Bell Atlantic + GTE&#x27

Will this work, or will this just be like Google's Alphabet, which the general person-on-the-street doesn't know or care about?

Can someone PLEASE tell me why the metaverse will succeed when things like Second Life and oh so many other immersive realities have failed. Is it because of the VR? Honestly why is this a thing?

I hear dystopia.com is a domain name that might be available for a good price. It probably is a better fit for the company brand anyways.
