This sort of object oriented programming was doomed to fail because it requires thoughtful world building and not a direct assault on the ticket you were assigned. It you look at most of SOLID it is about building little pieces that eventu

Shouldn't the punishment for obstruction, in many cases, be higher than the base offense to prevent that as a default strategy to beat the base offense? Granted, not that much higher, but there is some logic to it being a greater offe

It makes sense if ruining lives is good for the company, firing and layoffs that are /necessary/ are hard for anyone with empathy. They should be rewarded for doing that.

This is a bit of a trick question. The law is explicitly written to make this illegal. If it was not explicit, it most likely would be legal by time shifting precedent. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18&

I can't see the methodology, but it would shock me if they did not take into account the local high based on the time of year. Edit: In the methodology section it is not clear whether they used one average or average for the date.

They are not exporting the models, they are exporting very speech like output.

I am a bit surprised they can’t make serious free speech arguments.

I may be jaded, but I do not trust Google for product offering stability. Obviously, Apple is a way bigger fish.

What is it a benchmark for? All investable public stocks or the economy writ large?

There are economic realities, but there is a huge gap between not turning a profit and a 36% margin on billions.

Not all, but wouldn't that make a case for more rigorous standards? Economically things must be prioritized, but there is a very big gap between NASA standards and typical commercial software.

It is not all about money, but microsoft had a net income of 101 billion last year, and a 36% profit margin. I am not saying humans or AI can create "perfect" software, but NASA has shown there is a HUGE gap between what can be ac
