I wonder if stock-holders can successfully sue for lying about the cause of a sales slump?
If they have a smoking gun? Sure. And the SEC will want in, too. Otherwise? GLWT

Humans have flaws. Taxi drivers sometimes commit crimes. Nothing I will say here is meant to imply that humans are perfect. But they can at least be trusted to do something predictable most of the time. A computer cannot, so you can't trust it on its OR even as much as a human. But you also can't trust central management. QED, you simply cannot ever trust an autonomous taxi.
Finding ways to replace human work is the backbone of progress, but sometimes replacing a human is not actually a good idea.
Did all those children with cancer make poor life choices?
Christ, youâ(TM)re an arrogant fuck.
Yes, defending victims is a famously arrogant activity.
"The Spoils of War" by Andrew Cockburn. Goes way back to American soldiers having to steal boots off dead Chinese soldiers in Korea to get decent boots, their feet were freezing off.
Still probably true BTW, though ironically my example is the opposite. I bought a pair of issue desert boots and a paid of issue arctic boots at the same time. The arctic boots came with two sets of liners, were flawless, I still have them. The desert boots came apart on like the second wear, which sadly was long after I bought them. They disintegrated at a seam.
Sigh. I meant to write more there that would make that comment make more sense as a reply to your comment.
Anyway... why not just tampered with clones? Fix your defects, with a broad definition of "defect"
The only donor bodies that aren't going to treat the transplant as an act of war are clones
This story is about clones.
The word "Clones" appears in the headline, summary, and article.
You're wrong on this one. Clearly unable to see the forest behind the twig.
You can't even see that the summary says the so-called age verification is being done with ID verification and you want to tell me I'm missing something? Pure clown shit that EVERYONE BUT YOU figured out.
But what if I need a piece of brain? Abby what, you say?
I stand corrected. All this stuff that's happening now is because *in the future* there will be identity verification!
It's not in the future, and if you could both read and understand the fine summary, you would understand that. Feel free to try to read and understand it again, it's right there.
If the midterms occur and are not outright stolen then yes, the Republicans are getting crushed.
But conservatives will absolutely double down on everything and it will probably work for them to regain power, because enough Americans are idiots. The Reagan-era policy of destroying our public education system (once world class, with high school students studying the classics and thereby having a chance to learn critical thinking) has paid off for the religious reich.
This doesn't make it American. It's still Chinese.
If you're not buying anything on the basis of principles, you shouldn't buy anything American or Chinese. GLWT.
That surprised me, too. TypeScript is a very poorly-congealed ("designed" seems a bit strong) language.
Of the two popular scripting languages - python and ruby - python probably makes more sense as you can compile into actual binaries if you want.
For speed and parallel processing, which I'd assume they'd want, they'd be better off with Tcl or Erlang, both of which are much much better suited to this sort of work.
Then they should have used Tcl.

I don't think Microsoft doing predictable Microsoft monopoly things was a leftard idea thing. It's not political. It's about greed.
You only think that's not political because you're confusing centrists with leftists.
