Renewables are undeniably a good idea. The energy is just right there.

Sure they are not without problems, and in a country the size of the UK, there's not enough to be energy independent, but even with that we should build more.

To be fair that guy can just date people named Maria from now on. I'm not sure what anyone can do with an RFID chip they locked themselves out of. Maybe he can get comes out of his mind with the first guy and go crazy enough to dig it out himself.

You can't even get some people to take a regular shot/vaccine or they think it causes autism or any number of other negative effects. Good luck telling them you're going to put a bunch of tiny robots in their or their child's body. Just sell them an expensive but otherwise benign crystal and give someone else the technology for cheaper.

Courts move at a snail's pace. Ten years is a bit on the long side of that, but it's not unheard of. People forget that the SCO vs IBM lawsuit started I. 2003 and was still going over a decade after that. After that point a lot of it was mostly just dealing with appeals, but the case was still ongoing in some form until 2021 when it was settled out of court.

Get your lawyer to argue it was intentional destruction of evidence. That would allow the jury to make whatever inferences they want about what may have been in it (they'll probably do this anyway, but getting the judge to tell them that always helps) and then let your lawyer insinuate that it's worse than it probably is.

Also never underestimate the ability of management to waste everyone's time.

Clue: That is pretty much every AI.

Your TDS is showing, you are the only one mentioning the orange dude here.

Clue: That is pretty much every AI.

Clue: Correct in the LLM sense does not match factually correct, it means a pattern match of words of a sufficient probability. Words that may be the "garbage in" of the phrase "garbage in, garbage out".

My argument/joke still applies. They will never get past the concept of "won't qualify". Its too alien from their "lived experience". :-)

An AI recreated the source code from a lengthy review by Jerry Pournelle in Byte Magazine. :-)

"An answer" Not the correct answer, about 40% of the time. Damn fractions/percentages. The kids won't see the problem will they. :-)

You might want to consider that the folks who put us on the moon using slide rules were the products of local school boards, minimal state interaction, and near zero federal interaction. Their schools pretty much focused on how to read and write, how to do math, and how to build or make things with your hands. And you had to do some PT every day.

Somethings experimentation with a system leads to a bad state, backing up to an early state is part of the process of exploring a different direction.

It's not the math, it's the concept that some will "not pass". They are stuck there, never getting to the math.

Wait, your cashier recognized the coins and knew their denominations? Top of class there. Worth having to wait for the "software upgrade" for the calculator. :-)

For the college freshman this article is referring to? Easy answer, one. If reproduction occurs it will be after exchanging ice chests, via Amazon. :-)

This is why things tend to work better on Mac. Revisit 3-year-old software, and it probably won't compile. Apple's Xcode IDE will inform you of about three deprecated frameworks and their "modern" replacements, which you must now rewrite your code for.

Annoying as it is, it sure cuts down on the cruft. :-)
