If enough malicious actors use Copilot to write malware, then future Copilot suggestions will encourage users to write malware.

Foreign countries don't need to pay for it when they can just hack it from US companies that store the info insecurely.

But not every one of those 100 cars are encountering the exact same situations. Even if they are using the exact same code, the fact is that one car can't be in 100 places at the same time, and is incapable of causing 100 accidents at once. So if you really want to compare apples to apples, you'd compare 100 cars piloted by Waymo to to 100 cars piloted by meatbags.

Computer science is heavily grounded in programming theory, which is a good thing: a competent graduate should be able to take their Pascal/Java/whatever skills and easily pivot to whatever language is being used at their job. There is no language you "should" learn unless you know a priori what language you will be using at work.

If your college is teaching LanguageX but you know for a fact that your future job will be using LanguageY, nobody is stopping you from studying LanguageY in your spare time. In fact, you should probably take electives in that language and/or find other ways to study it. There are too many languages and technologies in use today for colleges to be able to cover them all, or even the "latest" ones. If you really want to make big bucks, study COBOL: it's in high demand simply because nobody wants to learn it.

Yeah, but *how many* Waymo cars are involved in your theoretical situation? If it's more than 100 Waymo cars then they are performing better, on average, than the average human driver.

In other words, asynchronously. So, yeah, not new.

If he had *lost* $1.8M on the deal, would anybody have cared? Or is insider trading only a crime if you make money?

Pretty much every Windows update ensures *something* will stop working, hence the never ending cavalcade of updates that fix errors introduced in prior updates.

Because people are so accustomed to anything by Microsoft being a piece of junk held together by chewing gum and baling wire that they are more than happy to try something that might be a better alternative.

If I lock down my PC but Microsoft manages to install updates despite my wishes, are they guilty of hacking into my computer and can I collect damages?

I will tell you the identities of the Bitcoin scammers as soon as you deposit USD $15 million in Bitcoin to my wallet at the following address...

This. Live spacecraft colliding with satellites (or other space junk) is the real issue. Satellites burning up during reentry is generally not an issue.

They should get fined, with the amount going up significantly with each subsequent breach.

Stop accepting photos of IDs as ID.

Guess you've never heard of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act?
