your imaginary ethics are laughable and have no bearing on the insufferable comment above.

The real problem will happen is when nearly all companies mandate RTO, then all these digital nomads will be required to actually show up - and probably for less money they were making before had they sucked it up and kept their jobs instead of quitting.

HP builds multi-function machines as well, the scanners SHOULD position them for doing well transitioning from a printed world to an exclusively digital one, but the software they provide for scanning is wholly inadequate. They don't even include OCR with their scanning software.

I may be a little jaded but voting in these people doesn't seem to be actually helping get either a) what people want or b) what's really good for the nation and society as a whole.

Mine just turned 2 - premature, but dodged NICU by a matter of hours. Also missed my birthday (and my mother-in-law's) by one day!

Also still here, looking forward to hearing your take on it!

There is nothing in the source NYT article to indicate the Emirates who are hosting this one summit in a series of summits are "Leading" the summit.

Your headline is excessively clickbait-y.

Many fields are grappling with the question, "will AI take my job?"

I think a more reasonable response is one I've seen in, for example, the medical profession:

"Langlotz concluded that “Will A.I. replace radiologists?” is “the wrong question.” Instead, he wrote, “The right answer is: Radiologists who use A.I. will replace radiologists who don’t.”"

The same is probably true for software engineers. We can't just hand over the whole task to a machine, but we can definitely get some productivity boosts by having code assistants handy to generate starting point code and same a lot of time.

I use slackware on my workstation and my servers, thank you very much. systemd can go crank itself.

powershell scripting is overly verbose. in PS you can do "cat (Get-PSReadLineOption).HistorySavePath" whereas linux it's just "history". This is one of DOZENS of ridiculously long commands that should, by default, have a more succinct alias to it. Sure you can create your own aliases but you shouldn't have to manage a dotfile config you pull from github or something.

Most don't use headphones at all with their cellphones.

Doesn't everyone just have a collection of apps you need and stick to those? I can't even remember when I bought an App. Even free apps only get downloaded when absolutely needed.

Indeed, that is why anyone with a clue wouldn't make important (hell, any... ) devices on a Cloud Service. I, and I hope nobody with a clue, wouldn't accept a firewall that is cloud dependent.

Mine beeps but also gives me an estimate for the time needed. That is useful. I just set an alert on my phone based on that time. Not hard.

Amazon Prime also allows you to download the content. (At least on a phone/tablet you can, I don't know for computers. Probably not.)
