Why should the government get the money? They are neither the buyer nor the seller in the transaction.
Yet another sneak tax is a brilliant idea. /s

>Can't do it

Funny, Canada did. They're handling it just fine.

Myth with no factual basis. Were this the case, there would be a very large number of people with that exact age, and no one older.

Consult this table of ages:

There is no legitimate reason for there to be THOUSANDS of people over 200 years old in the Social Security database. It can only be fraud.

Why not just admit there's massive fraud?

I hate to tell you this- but you're not applying anywhere close to enough.
Depending on the job role, it used to be that you could get a 5% initial response rate, and maybe 0.5% of applications led to a job offer. (Based on mine and a few other people's metrics a few years back)

These days You need a good 200+ applications to get into an actual post-HR screening interview. Things filter out hard from there. Plan on 300-400 applications in the current market to land an offer. It will take time.

If you "shotgun" applications to jobs you're not qualified for or don't want, those applications don't count. You're wasting everyone's time, especially your own.

We have several years of hard evidence that many jobs can be done entirely remotely. There is no good economic or productivity reason to mandate return to office. (manager egos and corporate optics of office buildings are another thing)

Workers now know what it's like, and many strongly prefer it. There are 3, maybe 4 companies in my commute distance that could be potential employers for my job title. When I work remote, I have access to 10's of thousands of companies across the entire united states.

Employers, if they have any sense at all, will realize the same is true for them. What are the odds that the nation's best talent lives within 60 miles of their office? Why pay SanFan wages when equal talent lives all over the USA, eager to work remotely? Why pay for office space- when people sit alone in cubes doing Teams calls?

Cities should press for remote workers. It keeps tax dollars where people live. It reduces traffic. It frees up commercial space for other uses- almost like inventing more land in the heart of cities.

I've spend thousands of hours commuting. Wasted. Spent away from my family. For nothing.
I've been paid low local wages, because employers knew I had nowhere else to could go.

I will never work in office again. At any price.

My money was on Hal for a long time, then Lopp come along and proved it couldn't have been him.

I'm now thinking that Satoshi may have been a group. There's far too many novel innovations released all at once in first release, plus it gives each member plausible deniability (Well, I have no experience in x, so couldn't have been me).

I think the fact that the network actually took off surprised everyone, and the early founder(s) didn't bother to keep the keys to coins for a theoretical pet project that was probably going to collapse in a month or two anyway.

You're right, and you're wrong. Mostly because the definition of AI keeps changing.

If you were to show a "hey siri" demo to someone from the 1960's, they would call it AI. (Heck, Siri is better than Star Trek's Ship Computer (TOS) )
Same for a Tesla auto-summon for anyone from the 80's.

The Turing Test used to be the benchmark for crossing over into AI - and now we dismiss that accomplishment as "just a chatbot".

It's good that we're moving the line of "real AI" closer to AGI and ASI. We should be expecting more. But let's not claim that AI doesn't exist because we can see how the internal geals work.
 

Cool, now do cash.

Oh, so ChatGPT will become even more useless.

Any time you come near to a prompt that counters left-wing views, it bails to a refusal.
This will only hasten competitors to fill the void of a bot that's hamstrung by political right-think.

Someone needs to go back to school and learn why we have both a House and Senate.

The founders were afraid of a tyranny of the cities, and rightly so. Otherwise we'd have a simple majority-rules vote for everything.

Wow guys, you're right. The "pander-stone" episode was totally a compliment to Disney.

Looking forward to every new movie being a remake, but turning the lead into a chick that's gay!

That will absolutely draw the 50% of the country that doesn't buy into wokeness!

Maybe they ought to stop losing so much money before doing a huge merger?

The answer is so obvious that even South Park is mocking them over it - stop shoving woke ideology down our throats, and maybe go back to telling good stories.

This, 100%. The volume buttons adject the ringer volume, or the app volume, but not in any consistent manner.

I have yet to find even a user interface option that shows which of the 2 is being changed, and to recognize that there are 2 independent volume levels.

So there was a 6% staff layoff, but NOBODY bothered to proofread the AI posted articles at all?

Maybe they did- and let the machine's awful versions pass in the hopes the machine would get fired.
Seems to have worked...

>Infotainment in a car? What a great way to increase accidents.

You're saying you've never used a car radio or GPS?
Really?
