Most of their revenue is from the cloud, but they still want Linux off the desktop.
MS couldn't give 2 shits about Linux on the Desktop. It's a tiny and irrelevant market share to them.
Not in 2003 it wasn't
Does anyone actually have any evidence PJ was a real person and not just a persona created by IBM's PR department? PJ appeared mysteriously, exclusively posting stuff supportive of IBM's position in this case. They never turned their attention to any other litigation. It's awfully suspicious. You'd think a real person who knew that much about the relevant law would have opinions on other cases as well, and you'd expect them to market themselves using the fame/goodwill generated with Groklaw. You'd also think they'd have done at least one interview, or you could find at least one person who's met them. I'm not saying anything posted on Groklaw wasn't true, just that it always seemed like a very successful IBM PR exercise to me.
Her name is Pamela Jones, she was a paralegal. She's done real interviews in the past. She was/is real!
Given that we live in a "market-driven" society, the correct conclusion is that companies are refusing to properly compensate skilled workers.
With executive pay at all time highs and the gap between executive and workers larger than ever, I would agree. This is a failure in the system where boards of directors are not holding executives accountable. The system can't hold for long.
The baby killers always lie. Absolute scum of the earth
"Japan is preparing a nonbinding "comply or explain" code that would urge generative AI companies"
This has no teeth whatsoever
How 'bout if I buy now and pay after I die?
You sound like an idiot
So powerful that Claude requires a billion little hacks to be optimized so as not to use ridiculous amounts of tokens. The programmers are so good they can't build those optimizations into the model to begin with.
AI was supposed to resolve these issues, not add to them. Claude is the worst offender of them all.
sounds like the plots of a cheap SF movie.
"automatically create personalized highlight reels"
Basically its posting dumb shit for you in the background while you are at a dinner party. Peak Facebook garbage
The only decent song they wrote.
University is just becoming another adult daycare. Sad
They shouldn't be trying such a desperate solution without trying chlorox and ivermectin first.
Just don't leave the country after you participate.
For that matter, you may suffer remote retaliation even if you stay home. I would leave this to the military or other government branch.
Also there is the question of legality, government operation or not. It sounds to me like vigilante justice. And countries who like their anti-American cybercriminals will certainly treat it as illegal. (Hence the advice not to leave the country.)
We certainly need a way to stop cybercrime, international or otherwise. But this doesn't strike me as a good way to go about it.
Finally a prediction: in the not too distant future, one or more offshoots from this will turn into unmanageable domestic criminal organizations.
Even Batman's job is threatened by AI.
The goal of Computer Science is to build something that will last at least until we've finished building it.
