I have to imagine Big Corps are also concerned about liability / risk when generating things with OpenAI products - at least until there is some sort of settled law around using models trained on this kind of data.

Fair point! You're right - I made some assumptions based on its merger into theater rather than something like film or effects or engineering. Pushed me toward a focus on marionettes rather than how to build a puppet, how to engineer

Children’s education is obviously important, but the degree on the paper doesn’t indicate what you studied in my opinion. Just want folks spending the money to get full credit.

That makes sense! I just wouldn’t call it puppetry. I’d also not merge it with theater.

Biometric systems engineering cut huh? Looks like that play to the FBI to convert miners into biometrics staffers for CJIS in Clarksburg didn’t play out huh?

They have successfully submarined us into looking at the product page on Threads.com as a Slack alternative, while opining on whether this might be a trademark dispute around Meta's new thing with the same name.

It can be good! That said, as someone who has spent time in the five sided puzzle palace I would argue the time has long passed for a harder look at how the dollars are spent and how procurements are happening so we improve the process, ope

True! That said, the monopoly plays a role. I bet if you gave these specs to an open bid sheet metal fabricator somewhere in the US they’d replicate it for less than 52K shipped, no?

If we continue to give the Defense department trillions of dollars without audits, they have no incentive to be smart with the money they spend. There is a huge amount of policy around contracting and expenditures but once you’re in the doo

I blame them for buying. This goes against the rules they were founded on - to be focused EXTERNAL to the United States. It's technically within the letter of the law but not the spirit and we should pass a law preventing access (and p

I think the main issue here is that they cannot actually do this themselves because it would violate their remit as agencies focused outside the United States for good reason, but somehow buying the same data makes it "OK" from a

Reading between the lines, this is commercial cover for a DoD project. It would be pretty incredible to get stable fuel going that speed, and that kind of engine seems pretty critical to future bomber / fighter fleets.

Interesting. In that case what a terribly misleading / borderline irresponsible article. The video from the study to go along with it was also garbage in explaining this, but I admit I probably got led astray by all the talk of the vis

+1 to seeing sailing on here :) I'd imagine the last 1-2 generations of America's Cup boats would have a lot to glean in terms of wing sail camber changes and how they operate. Pretty neat to watch how they use flaps vertically, b
