and the boys were already ten and eleven years old when I entered their life

I hope you got a good relationship with them! My son can't even talk yet. So, right now, he's just this cute thing that runs around and causes trou^H^H^H^Hgood things to happen.

Well, some of that is for classes for people who can't see that default 3-pixel wide scrollbar on Windows 11 in high contrast dark mode. :-)

Fair. Just making fun of Windows 11.

Yeah, you're blessed to have one of each. Until they start conspiring against you, which you KNOW is going to happen.
ha!

Hopefully we'll raise them better than that. And let them see us honoring our parents.

You charge to "upgrade" to Windows 11? How evil are you? :P

For all my pro-life ramblings, we were granted only one child.

Precious. I feel bad you couldn't have more though. G-d has been very generous to us.

Keeping up with two toddlers after age 50 can't be easy.

And yet i wouldn't trade it for anything! Thank G-d, we have a lot of help. Especially, when some neighboring girls come by to take our son for a walk. G-d bless them all.

Journal Journal: Verbiage: Kids are heavy 6

So, my son is around 20 pounds now. At my age, that's heavy. My left shoulder became sore from holding all the time he wanted to be held. So sore, i slept on my right side the last few nights just so it wouldn't hurt. But not only that, my daughter just had her one-month checkup and is at 7lb 9oz. She's also getting heavy. Sometimes, i want to hold her all day, but after a few minutes, i have to give up. She lying on my right shoulder as i type this right now. :)

Itâ(TM)s not the share holderâ(TM)s being sued (the owners) itâ(TM)s the officers. The law is clear in regards to what is required by them, and that if they fail to do that, and are found to have failed to do they, they can be held responsible.

They accept this responsibility and risk for the paychecks that they get.

If they follow the rules, and lose money they are fine.

I donâ(TM)t know all the details on the charges. But limited legal liability does not apply here. I do know that. If they are guilty or not in the eyes of existing laws, thatâ(TM)s for the court to determine.

How do I know, Iâ(TM)ve worked in the banking sector on and off for 20 years, and regularly recieved training about the things that if I fail to do, or in some cases do, that I might be legally liable with fines and up to jail.

As to the Boeing example, if any of those developers were Professional Engineers, they absolutely can be legally liable. Limited liability is a good thing, but does not apply in all cases is not a protect me from negligence, when my role at the company is specifically to not be lawfully negligent.

SVB was a C-Corp not an LLC (and Iâ(TM)m not aware of any U.S. bank that is or can be an llc).

The people being sued had a fiduciary duty to not do what happened, and were, or should have been, quite aware that they can be held Legally Liable if I court finds that they did not uphold the duty.

I think you need to do some more research.

Crap in, crap out. If you are using all of the Internet, you will get crap.

If you constrain the input of the rag model, and the questions asked, it will do a generally, to amazingly, great job.

Upload the original wizard of oz from Gutenberg to a rag system.

Then ask about Dorthyâ(TM)s ruby shoes.

Vs ask that question to a general llm that is not constrained by the actual story

Look up retrieval augmented generation.

Basically you add specific context to your system and it saves it off. That is then used to constrain what is generated.

Obviously if you provide crap context, youâ(TM)ll still get crap out put.

Notebooklm from Google is a good example of this that you can use, without needing to roll your own solution

Dude, this is a setup for kids talking to their grandparents.

Depending on age micing them up is likely a nightmare (both the kids and if anything like my parents the grandparents too)

Soundboard table also sounds like a problem but probably easier to solve. Like putting the omni mic on the tv stand
