Cheaper to just pay the bribes.
In America it's known as K-street. Or "donating" to an Inauguration Gala. Or hosting a high court judge in a European palace for a couple of weeks. Or giving decision makers absurd private sector salaries when they 'retire'. Or giving the Governor's wife a $200K no-show job. Pick your branch, there's a way.
In India the system is less formal.
It is $6.25 bn and while it is generous it is only $250 per child born during that narrow period of election significance.
The Dell pledge is not for children born during "that narrow period of election significance" but rather applies to children under age ten that were not born during said period. AFAICT, the kids getting a thousand bucks do not benefit from this pledge at all. The Dell pledge also only applies to children who live in zip codes where the median HHI is under $150k.
Dell is piggybacking off of the infrastructure that already needs to be put in place to administer the accounts created by congress. I really don't understand why people seem to be so angry about this. The only real connection to Darth Cheeto is what the funds are named, and Dell didn't name them, congress did.
I love getting modded down by people who support rape. If the worst pieces of shit hate me then I must be doing it right.
And you bet people will be waiting in line on day one to buy it...
Yes, and also the open driver is worth a shit unlike the closed driver for Windows, which provably is not. So not only do you not have the Nvidia driver shittiness, you don't have the AMD Windows driver shittiness either. If you're not deeply into LLMs then AMD is the obvious choice for a GPU for Linux.
Communism was supposed to be about equality and the people controlling everything in a bottom up manner. But the moment you implement it on a national scale you end up with a small inner circle
Nobody has ever tried to implement "Communism without a small inner circle" at the national level, and WITH it, it isn't Communism. Maybe there is no such thing as Communism, like there is no such thing as a completely free market, but nobody ever made a good faith effort to have everyone be equal at that level. There's always the plan to ride atop the masses.
Seriously, though, when the AI recognizes it is about to operate on a root folder, it should be directed to confirm
LLMs don't recognize things, so your condition is already fulfilled.
In September of 2022, when Ukraine was counter-attaking in the Kherson oblast and making significant headway, Musk ordered Starlink service shut down [reuters.com] in that area. Not all of Ukraine, just the Kherson and surrounding areas.
I'm flummoxed; Is the Starlink service incapable of authenticating terminals? Is it less advanced than 90's era satellite TV? IE: how do Russia's black market Starlink terminals get any access in the first place? (FWIW, this isn't a direct response to the parent post... just seemed like a natural progression to ask about individual terminals versus geofencing)
If one lives in the US and has a Starlink terminal, can you access the network even if you are not an active subscriber? I'm certain that's a no. So how are the black market terminals getting around that? And if it's that easy and untraceable, then where can we all get black market terminals?
There is zero value in some big scary climate risk number also being disclosed, because A that risk accounted for if you are studying the details anyway and does not help you make a rational decision, because it literally does not affect you beyond the places where it is already baked into the numbers.
If you don't care why the insurance is so expensive or unavailable (e.g. high risk of flooding) then maybe you also don't care about why the house's price is so high (e.g. nice location, good construction, etc). No need to even look at the house. Just treat the whole damn thing as an abstract exercise in numbers.
OTOH, some people might actually care about details. Maybe because they're considering living there?
Just redo your constitutional setup.
"Just"
It's super hard to redo our constitution. There's only two ways, one is with fire and the other requires consensus.
It's not that the vast majority of people in the US ain't noticing that fundamentals of the US system have to change.
The vast majority of people in the US don't know shit.
Let's not forget how many nuns were/presumably still are
A) lesbians kicked out of society
B) young women with no prospects who found themselves working in a Vatican-owned brothel euphemistically called a convent
C) both of the above
This is of course nonsense.
You will never be free from oversight so long as you are using money. Nor should you be.
You seem to be illiterate.
I'm not understanding how you could 'focus' an aerosol
I'm not understanding why you thought that was a reasonable reply to my comment.
Should this requirement apply to autonomous vehicles equipped with sensors that would prevent it from hitting a pedestrian when reversing?
Until they are infallible, yes.
the city should have banned charging stations in these locations via zoning before one was built there
Life is chock-full of "should haves", alas. Instead of each new project being better than the ones before, many people and organizations seem to think they know everything when they should have learned from others. I'm quite sure someone else had figured this out already.
You can measure a programmer's perspective by noting his attitude on the continuing viability of FORTRAN. -- Alan Perlis
