The problem with better DNA error checking is you risk choking off evolutions necessary source of entropy, and if that life can't evolve, it wont do well protecting against OTHER threats.

The conclusion would be that while too much radiation precludes evolution, (as it requires too heavy "error checking"), too little radiation also precludes evolution (no errors means no changes) and therefore there has to be a 'just the right amount', making that yet another constraint , in this case magnetic, on what sort of environment qualifies as the "goldilocks zone" for life.

Most of those complaints are from people too lazy or too stubborn to just type in the word into google and see what comes out. Worse, there is also a variant of people who say "I dont know what is", in a transparently bizzare attempt at trying to sound knowleagable, by feigning ignorance.

Don't this just make them chase never-ending profit to the detriment of all?

Anthropic where always a for-profit company, meaning that chasing a profit is a fiduciary legal requirement.

Tbh, of all the AI bro companies, Anthropic are the least obnoxious, and I do wonder how their stance against weaponization survives when board is stacked with venture capitalists instead of TESCRAL doomers.

Mindyou Nvidia may well be skewing young with its headcount. Prior to the AI boom NVIDIA had a very generous vested share program for its engineers, and suffered a rather unique problem when the AI boom shot their shares through the stratosphere when suddenly all their senior engineers where sitting on, in some cases, upwards of 20 million USD worth of shares each. And like normal people instead of wall street suits, they pretty much collectively said "Well, fuck this working shit" and cashed their chips and retired with their millions, gutting their ranks of senior engineers.

Same, I had that for a while.

The wifi names were "Surveillance Van 5" and "Surveillance Van 24" for 5Ghz and 2.4GHz channel. I set the family's cell phones network device names "Surveillance Operator 1", "Surveillance Operator 2", "Surveillance Operator 3", and "Surveillance Operator 4". For house guests sometimes it got a chuckle, "connect to surveillance van 24". I know when I went to friends who took their networks seriously, I had someone ask about it.

I could then block everything using that DNS and block all A.i., right?

The ban on private individuals is a bad idea...

Private individuals, PI's, Skip Tracers and reporters SHOULD be able to use such software freely. Police, and the Government NEED to provide reasonable suspicion to a court and get a writ.
This kind of tool can be incredibly useful, or incredibly invasive. The real question is who(m?) do you trust as the gate keeper. I'd nominate the EU data protection people but there is no agency or entity in
the US I'd trust not to monetize the data regardless of law.

I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the reccomendation.

I can remember seeing those in the theatre, after standing in line for hours. Star wars made a huge impact on my childhood. One of my best childhood memories is with my now deceased uncle seeing Empire Strikes Back. Like many I was terribly disappointed by the later Star Wars episodes. I've not even seen any of the "new" stuff. Actually Revenge of the Sith is the last movie I saw. She will be missed.

We probably would do well to shake the conception that Intelligence agencies are all-seeing/all-knowing fountains of competence. In reality they are filled with paranoid people of various levels of competence with a whole range of dispositions, including occasionally criminal.Intelligence agencies need to be a little criminal at times to get the job done. The idea that one of them might have been doing shady shit, in an agency that specializes in shady shit shouldn't surprise anyone. Hell, it was probably why they hired him.

THANK-YOU. The police have the means to get any info they want and can prove they have a legitimate need for. They just need to go through the proper procedures. I was a DSO long ago, and there are plenty of friendly judges that will listen to your arguments, but lazy a$$ cops don't want to do the paper work, or have shown they weren't trustworthy before. Show a judge you are a dirtbag and you'll never get anything.

I use the Meta AI for illustrations for my D&D game. I'm not sure I'd pay for it but it has made a positive impact in the game. ie the players rave about having images for bad guys.

At that point, why not just go VPin [vpinhub.com]?
because you can't hip check a virtual table.
Honestly I don't know. I've loved pinball since I was a kid and could play on a chair at the Mr. Video arcade. The touch, the smell of the electricity all combine into a thing I can't get enough of.

That is not a small project. How are you going to separate the CO2 from the general atmosphere ? I worked in a grow house briefly in college and they used commercial CO2 cannisters for that effect.
