That is where accountability differs from responsibility. It is the business of the government to make sure that: * the contract with the software vendor is free of the kind of fuckery you mentioned * the product it has signed off on at the

There is no gap, or rather it is artificial and created on purpose. The government is accountable (not responsible, there is a difference) for the entire process to work without any gaps.

After flying from Davos to Zurich on helicopters and boarding the modified Boeing Co. 737, Blinken and his party were informed that the aircraft had been deemed unsafe to fly. An oxygen leak detected previously could not be remedied. &quo

There is a cheap triangular contraption which allows you to make onigiri yourself to your preferred specification. You may want to invest in proper rice and nori, it is smooth sailing after that.

I like confabulation too but ultimately one way or the other we just anthropomorphizing the software. Does anyone seriously considers LLMs as modeling the human brain?

Her name is Paula Vennells. I take this opportunity to reinforce the association of her name with the scandal in future web searches.

This has the unfortunate optics that Paula Vennells did the decent thing. The title should have been taken away from her ages ago.

I agree but on the flip side it is interesting to consider what were the pressures and the timeline to bring us to where we are now. Great ape brains are distinguished from monkey brains by their larger frontal and cerebellar lobes. The Ne

Well, that would contribute to your when brand new statement. Isn't this a quality assurance nightmare to the point where one must wonder if innumerable customization options is a desirable attribute?

When you say that its is normal for complex systems to suffer more faults when brand new can you share the stats that apply to airliners? Also, what makes 737 Max a dynamic product ?

Teeth are liability in a similar way. Once we get the permanent set, they need to be maintained in various expensive and painful ways. On the plus side, they do provide value. Software rots too, if for no other reason then due to Lehman

Yes, a bit silly this. Code is means to an end, it makes sence to think of code as liability (maintenance cost, inevitable bugs, etc .. ) but this must be contrasted with the value it provides within some reasonable timeframe.
