I'll be happy if we make it through the next three years without a world war.

In the post-chat-gpt world, if you want to SEO, you need to write for chat-gpt.

They're about to launch a fundraising campaign.

Does the baby not get citizenship? Is the baby killed?

Don't give Kristi Noem ideas! Look what she does to dogs.

Zillionaires on private islands or shady countries will work on this, and rich will want designer babies with double-dee's, 180 IQ's, and tall. Complain all you want, it ain't going away. I'm just the messenger.

So at least someone enjoyed it

The heritage foundation has been packing the courts with lunatics for the last 45 years. It's part of project 2025.

My government has forbidden me from buying their products.

You have another name for someone who does a sig heil and is the key note speaker for a German right wing party?

I prefer simplicity. In my present work, I'm paid by the task - the day after the task. I told them the amount I wanted on the Check. They take care of the details to make certain the all the other items deductions, SS, and taxes.

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.

It is a game changer, just not the way it's being used. The accellerating advances of robotics are almost all from the use of AI trained in specific tasks. ChatGPT couldn't operate a robot, but neither could the AI that runs Boston Robotics' Spot converse with you.

It's akin to the cops' Thin Blue Line, the judge is also a lawyer, he doesn't want to upset his coworkers.

If it fixed the leak? Why not? Especially if it enabled them to fix it faster and/or cheaper.

Just FYI, AI is in use in the construction trades already, most people aren't aware of that. For your example a draftsman can feed the plans of a building into an adequately trained system and map out the most efficient routing for plumbing and cabling. AI is operating excavators, scheduling contractors, driving inspection robots, recognizing bad concrete pours from drone images, and the list keeps growing. In China there are entire mines being worked by only robots driven by AI, and AI powers their "lights out" factories.

I don't see any issue with an AI creating legal citations, **IF** it's adequately trained specifically on legal documents with the guard rails in place to only use cases that actually exist and which actually pertain to the topic in question. Obviously ChatGPT and its kin are not up to that task, but they're trained in everything under the sun, and the old rule of GIGO goes into effect. A legal AI doesn't need to know anything about running an excavator, how to feed a goldfish, or the Kardashian sluts' sex lives, including crap like that into your training is going to produce garbage output.

Generally its not too hard to hijack old hardware and add your own op-amps and whatever to the existing bias and drove circuits. Once you can get some signal in, even if you're just using your digital storage scope and some decently set up triggers you can crank though just about any old data set. Phase encoded, MFM, etc are all pretty easy to decode in software with a sufficiently fast microcontroller.

I used to get the two coupled like that until very recently. C didn't show up until around 1972. (UNIX was created in 1969). That factoid ended up being a minor plot point in a Chinese drama my wife is watching and I got it wrong, much to my embarrassment.
