Comment Business Rules (Score 1) 59

Correct coding is not development. A complete set of Business rules are required. I have seen many Agile projects try to re-create business rules. AI so far cannot 'Document all the business rules using the Cobol and DB2 structures with change history' AI cannot do law, because law is different everywhere, so Judges and Lawyers needed. Let me scoff when they say the law is codified! Many aggressive companies are ending customer service, and dull witted non-empowered drones with phone scripts. Many a lawyer files a writ when customer service fails, and the better lawyers sting 5K off a $30 billing error. AI is yet to make filing easy, but it is coming.

Comment Not if the repeat Angeles City Ripoffs (Score 1) 127

Lots of businesses have been destroyed by greedy barons after prices have been agreed upon. Hurt: Emirates, Korean International Hospital in Clarke and more. Even Trumps planned Casino died when no tax exception was granted. Not sure where the power will come from. Cyclone season will also jazz things up.

Yes mostly true, but free amazon postage often makes a big difference in countries with high postage rates - unless you do a lot of sales. mom and pop outfits are going going gone... Now many ebay sales come from China, as ebay has much lower rates there. Aliexpress now has an AI engine that works better than its lame search.

Comment Expensive dealer recalls will test the old model (Score 1) 58

Many people know recent cars have too many powertrain defects (some common to the big 3) , but for now pretend cost cutting. 200K is not bad on a good day. Dealers are unhappy about lack of spare engines, and being paid next to nothing for huge complicated jobs. (See Daves Auto for instances of dealer reluctance ). Established car makers have had a lot of uncle Sam subsidies and handouts. BYD is now making mini RV's to suit the homeless multitudes. Ready, setty, GO.

Comment Making Windows 11 More Insecure (Score 2) 86

Every unnecessary line of code compromises security. In a professional environment like government, police, law courts, lawyers - should not be playing games. Now graphics drivers have a lot of privileged level 'glue' . We do not want ports or memory exposed to garbage collection browsing or salvaging. Size wise Windows 11 is obese, dripping with lines of code vulnerabilities. Corporate needs to remove LOC that serve no good purpose.

Comment Solution: AI with Horoscope Predictions (Score 1) 127

Right now most AI's do a shitty job when picking which stocks to buy - that also understands Horoscope reading and faith healing. Now Ronald Reagan did do horoscope consultations. Obviously if you ask about Iran outcomes, not knowing the phases of Jupiter or Mars is critical. US Military does not employ enough fortune tellers either. I think you will find all the other AI or (PI - Pretend Intelligence) engines out there lack sufficient gypsy training.

Looking an many insecure adsl modems and bios, they are coded and maintained in Taiwan, using American setup shims, and a good dose of open source code. China deserves to be banned for not making things open source, or at least a copy in escrow. I remember one govt upset about Israeli security software, and the answer was 'sure you can look, but only inside the Israeli embassy. Back in my day, critical systems were never connected to the internet, and anything with an eeprom never made it to the secure product list.

Forget AI, Pretend Intelligence or PI is the new go-to. Formerly GIGO Garbage In Garbage Out, Vs Expert Systems famous for negative returns. Just one correction, in space vacuum , it is very hard to dissipate heat, let alone feed power Hungary memory. This tells one we are close to worlds tallest building downfall.

Fair enough. But those Microsoft conferences also have to be paired back to the bone. Besides, SIGNAL, ProtonMail and OpenBSD are changing spots as it were, and upping the game to add to the costs of breaking, and introducing distributed keys in different countries, that run counter to enough bribes will fix things. Presently mobile phone offerings contain a suspicious amount of CPU security bugs. Does anyone take apart all the unnecessary includes in the compile, and question why compiles failed?

Shoplifters work in gangs. The only way to control theft is to limit exits between segments. Ikea is a good example. US shoplifters are more brazen. FaceID, and scales to measure their weight i/out is also an option. Someone in HK can tell others the size of the old Chinese Emporiums.

Comment Lasers are not the solution - another PR Stunt (Score 5, Interesting) 173

Lasers need a honking big power supply, think 20ft container size. Capacitors to drive it are juicy on radars, and the emf spike is triangulated. Overdriven lasers, wear out. There is a lifetime, and it is not huge, maybe a low as 100 shots. Weather and rain. 5km range, but 1 km would be more like it. Drones and glide bombs are SO cost effective in wiping out both tanks and container sized trucks. So basically expensive kit, restricted use. Probably best to guard Patriot like million bucks a pop systems. Best bang for buck is getting out of war and into peace.
