very likely won't cause any security issues.

Hahahahaha. Oh wait, you're serious? Let me laugh even harder. HAHAHA

higgsboson ,

Just once a week? They must be improving.

I imagine a manslaughter conviction was almost fait accompli, given the fact pattern.

While the Sky voice and a version of ChatGPT Voice have been around for some time, the comparison to Johansson became more obvious due to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and many others, drawing the similarity between the new AI model and the movie "Her".

When your CEO inadvertently helps build a copyright suit against your product... Not a good look.

Instead we're going to get "D- All of the above."

It's absurd, but under law in England and Wales, it isnt "rape" unless it is P-in-V. Hence the Guardian's use of what would seem like a euphemism. It's only "rape" if it is a male who is the perpetrator.

edit: for clarity

higgsboson ,

Sorry, my phrasing was ambiguous. I'll edit it to clarify.

If you visit the link I posted you'd learn that under English law, the rapist has to be the one with a penis. Otherwise it isn't legally rape.

As has become a bit of a trend lately, they put the useful information in the subtitle so it it won't get picked up by link aggregators...

Now, Microsoft Word will use the ‘merge formatting’ option by default.

...This article is about the US government doing exactly that. Did you read anything other than the headline?

The US government has allegedly revoked Qualcomm's and Intel's licenses to sell chips to Huawei

higgsboson , (edited )

Ahh, I see how it could be interpreted that way. I'll just pretend this is asked in good faith, despite it being just an off-topic rhetorical jab at the state of the US government.

Why can't they regulate capitalism when it comes to important shit.

The US government can do this (as opposed to your favored issues) for two reasons: 1) This is executive action by the Biden administration, not requiring Congress. 2) This is inherently uncontroversial, even popular. 81% of Americans have an unfavorable view of China. It is one of the few things Americans agree on with such strong bi-partisan support, thereby making China an easy punching-bag for campaign season.

Further, I would contest the assertion that the Biden administration isn't also doing those other things, to the extent that is feasible, given the currently widely divided state of our government.

That green tint means it is pressure treated. Just take it back (this time bring a tape measure.)

higgsboson ,

So just the 10 million dollar solar farm? easy peasy

higgsboson ,

I was skeptical of this title and article. After all, people from tech industry are needed for something like this....

Then I read the list on Page 2. CEOs of Adobe, Microsoft, Google, IBM, OpenAI. Fuck those assholes.

A group of "cold war boomers" also designed the RISC chips in question.

The website title isnt "25" it is "2 5". Note the whitespace. To me, that implies the title got mangled somewhere along the line, removing the dot.

Hanlon's razor would imply they are just incompetent.

higgsboson ,

Worth noting that this is just to get closer to parity with LinkedIn, who has offered this for at least a year.

higgsboson ,

I guess it's a good thing I already cancelled last time they raised prices.

higgsboson ,

setting up memcache was the biggest improvement for me.

higgsboson ,

Databricks would be more accurately called a "venture backed pre-IPO growth company." But saying "startup" is shorter and tends to get used more to convey the same basic idea.

higgsboson ,

As you've noticed, there are different types of ads. Not all have clicks as their goal. Some are just there to make you think about their brand, for example.

higgsboson ,

It's not just a grassroots movement. TBL also founded a company, Inrupt, to sell Solid to governments and large companies. Bruce Schneier is their Chief Security Architect.

higgsboson ,

Swing and a miss.

You didnt bother to read about it beyond a marketing blurb, so you completely fail to grasp what Solid is. You then proceed to confidently draw erroneous conclusions based on a spurious premise that we have to fix everything or nothing at all.

relevant username, indeed.
