It would be nice to use my TV for Zoom, but I certainly don't want the camera gathering data for its own purposes. The screen scraping that smart TVs do is bad enough.

dissolve Hyundai and 130,000 people lose their jobs because a criminal managed to break into a database?

No. Because the company collected the data in the first place. "In a database" is a place where criminals are likely to devote enormous resources to stealing it, and which they are unlikely to be able to protect adequately. On top of which, exactly 0 customers want their details to be stored.

Until the penalties for data loss exceed the value OF the firms (not just car companies)

FTFY

Because lots of mouthbreathers only know how to do stuff on "apps" on their phones. The idea they can use Safari in the phone to access websites of the same services is too much.

This seems rather redundant with the AI Sidebar feature they already have. I can interact with a chatbot whenever I want with their existing tool. I guess the difference here is the AI will be watching the browsing to assist you further? Funny how we went to fearing third-party cookies and cross-site scripting to asking a third-party to shoulder surf while we use the Internet.

Also curious what Mozilla as a company is going to focus on after this. Doesn't seem like there is much more AI they can distract themselves with beyond making the browser completely chatbot voice-controlled so you have to verbally ask the computer to see sites.

"I like things simple. I really don't deal with milage, or all the other things I consider minutiae. I deal with simple numbers. What this means is not filling out milage reports and the other stuff that clutters up to work. Perhaps I'm eccentric. But I like simple because my actual work is quite complex."

As is my work -- however, my mileage report isn't "minutiae". It' averages $300-$500 every two weeks (I do a lot of driving --- particularly for projects). And the process isn't complicated. Basically a date, destination and total miles per line. In a text file. No clutter -- just a review of my travel calendar for 5 mins every two weeks and another 2-5 mins to transfer that to my expense report. Automagically appears in my pay check 8 days later.

Wouldn't sensitive cameras be what you want in the case of navigating an environment in low lighting?
Also, have they heard of LiDAR?

I heard the music of vein celebrities goes right to the heart for their fans.

... Larry Ellison!

No, the point is we want equal treatment under the law. If corporations get a free pass for copyright infringement -- for profit even in this case, then no more shakedowns of Joe Sixpack because he downloaded a Metallica album to listen to on his iPod.

"That's exactly my point"

Not a very good one.

"Commuting and using a tool for a work-related activity are not analogue one with another."

The *CAR* is the "tool" in the analogy, not the action.. I stand by my original post.

RFKjr's administration have been using AI to generate justifications for policies that all are hitting exactly the same problems:

* AI is inventing studies that never existed
* AI is using quotes from real studies that aren't in the studies
* AI is generating summaries of studies that are the opposite of what the study itself actually concluded

and he's referencing these AI generated summaries in congressional hearings.

"I take it you don't get a salary? That you get paid by the second?"

I'm an "exempt" employee in California. Salary for over 2 decades.

I also turned down a company car to use my own. I get paid for "miles". $0.70 per. I do not get paid miles going to my office-- but from my office to any given site. At least during M-F. Sometimes I need to hit a site on the weekend, and miles start the moment I leave the driveway of my home.

There is zero expectation that my 8 hours start when I start my drive in to the office. It starts when I arrive. And yes, it's not uncommon (particularly during projects) that I work well over 8 hours. When that happens, we get comp-time at some point in the future.

"People expect to be paid for commute time too, at least in the sense that they will want more money if the commute is longer. Work from home made just coming to the office at all something which people want more money for."

People (employees) make that choice. They might take a longer commute for a job that pays more. It's not up to the employer to PAY for that commute ON TOP of their pay rate for a given job -- at least in my opinion.

"By that reasoning commuting with a vehicle provided by the employer should count as work time..."

Sigh....

You quoted me. There was more to what you were replying to than what you quoted. Read the rest:

"I would suggest that analogies are never "perfect" or "exact" -- they basically highlight similar bits of two different things to HOPEFULLY illustrate some concept or idea. If you are expecting it to be a 100% match, I think you might be misunderstanding what an analogy is."
