Who knows how your voice and words will be twisted by the creep with the trophy wife... Besides, amazon isn't the first an only, IIRC, apple is doing the same already.

The technology for cultivating and keeping-alive these mini organs has improved by leaps and bounds in recent years. Setups that used to cost a couple million dollars can be had for tens of thousands now. There was some breakthrough recently about 3d-printed "chips" that can bring the cost down even further, though I am not familiar with the details.

Unfortunately, there are still legal certifications needed given the biohazard potential of these things, so we still can't have mini-brains as pets. :(

Waymo runs their taxis remotely from a call center in the Philippines when they're not in dead simple situations and they're 10 years ahead of everyone else. Drag these jokers in front of a committee under oath and I'm sure they're doing the same.

The Intercept: Reddit subpoenaed in effort to identify anonymous ICE critic
Reason: ICE seeks to unmask Reddit user who criticized it

The whole trading system was flawed from the beginning. It relies on every company growing forever, and that was never sustainable.

Exactly, it allows them to blame Microsoft and say that they followed "best practice".

You're a spineless shitheel so this question is rhetorical but when (and I mean WHEN) Omar's case is dismissed like Comey, Letitia James or hell even the sandwich thrower guy will you walk back your claims, change your position in the face of evidence?

To the reader of course the answer is no because these people are bullshit bad faith conspiracy theorists. Turns out a belief system that can ignore reality can be quite powerful.

It's not just high profile either. They have gone after Reddit users. They attack people with bogus lawsuits.

What are you talking about? I said nothing about "buying muldiple vehicles". I have had five vehicles in the last 25 years, and only that many because at first I could only afford very used or free; I didn't buy new until the 4th car. $150 a day for the length of a 6 year car loan is $273,750 FOR A COMPACT CAR.

You must not remember when Germany denied what was happening 1932 onward. Please remind yourself about that part of history.

Additionally, you only need to look as far as Jimmy Kimmel, 60 Minutes, or several other high-profile instances in which the Turmp government has gone after people critical of them. Maybe a little intellectual honesty on your part would be appropriate?

To some extent I get people who have their heads in the sand. But I'll NEVER understand people who ignore clear and prominent evidence while willfully and stubbornly keeping their heads up their own asses.

The general expectation in industry is that the number of bugs must be finite and, even though every change might introduce new ones, as the AI models find new ones and they get fixed the total number of yet to be be found bugs will come down. As with Microsoft's recent run of consecutive record breaking Patch Tuesdays, the conclusion being drawn is that sooner or later the number of bugs being found and fixed after each analysis session will start to fall and, subsequent to that, normal patching service, albeit on a hopefully much more robust codebase, will resume.

Where it gets a little more sticky is that, while finite, the number of available bugs to find and fix could still be extremely large, so the time required to regress back to previous, or even better than previous, bugfix development volumes is unknown. If your bet is that duration is quite short (less than a year, say), then why would you want to encumber your business with a raft of new full time employees all wanting things like health benefits and severance protections, when you can just bring in some contractors and dump them at will when they are no longer needed? If you're thinking it's a long game, then at least some full time employees is probably a better option because eventually they will be cheaper than using contractors, with how long that is dependant on your typical salaries for each. BoA is presumably betting on the former scenario based on what they understand of their codebase and whatever additional volume of bugs AI has found in it so far.

Maybe if a kid is well off and has parents that can take them to the library constantly and isn't in a deep breath state or half the books have been banned because the letters g, a and y all appeared on the same page at the same time you might have a point but well that's not the world we live in.

As a dumb kid learning to program in basic I hit a wall for some reason on the concept of data statements. The idea that you would have data at the back of your program listing that you would read from the front of your program listing didn't make sense to my dumb kid brain. So I just kind of stopped because if your programming in basic you kind of need data statements to do anything at all cool.

At the time what I needed was something else to explain it to me in a different way but I just didn't have that. Single mom and all that working a lot and very rarely got to go to a library that wasn't the school library and I had already gone through the books they are. And I mean books plural they were like two very bad programming books.

Now if I had known and had the guidance to do so I could have asked the public librarian to get literally any book I want. There is a little library in a rural UK community that had the best collection of 8-bit programming books in the world because one of the old badass bedroom coders just kept asking the librarian for books and they kept getting them. But again it just didn't occur to me.

The internet lets you interact with thousands and thousands of information sources to explain things in different ways and give you different ideas and that's before you start digging into forums. Although thanks to political bots and the Russians you really have to dig the find good forums they are still out there.

Learning basic stuff is still better done on paper but there is no better way to get over a wall then with the help of the internet. And every person is going to hit a wall at some point

I suppose at least they didn't ask AI to fix it as well. Although who knows how many contractors are using AI to do their jobs for them now.

Years back the company I worked for had a contractor who did PCB layouts. He was crap at it too, and I'm fairly sure he just used the auto-router for everything. Caused no end of problems which went away when I started doing the PCB layouts myself.

Nothing like solving a critical problem in a core piece of your operations by hiring outside contractors. Anything to avoid investing in expertise, just like Sam Walton.

Wonder what those flaws would be like if they didn't farm out their operations to cut-rate people who don't give a shit? We all know banks can't afford permanent employees, they need to cut expenses to the bone.
