So they're giving pregnant monkeys Tylenol?

Because shiftiness and dishonesty are built into the Chinese psyche. We have measured the Asiatic brainpan with calipers and found that it lacks the capacity of the white brain. Why is it the more socially progressive the account, the more viciously racist it is? Has anyone figured this out?

It's not the public, but insurance companies that matter. At least in sane societies that do not have the notion of punitive damages,
Once it is clear that robo-taxis, or self-driving cars, are safer than human-driven vehicles, insurance companies will take note and lower premiums for self-driving cars even if the operators are held responsible for whatever mayhem they are causing. In such a scenario, it is likely that your insurance premium will go up by a fair bit, if you insist on having a steering wheel and gear shift fitted to your new car.

Nice, I ought to look into it. I have some Windows only software that I expect will run fine in WINE, but it's games that keep me from migrating my main rig to Linux.

It's a big ask.

I always thought that should be the case: if a company grows beyond a certain market share, additional rules should kick in. Perhaps extra taxes, but certainly rules against them buying up more competitors in the same space. Grow even further, and they might be deemed a public utility subject to strict price and access regulations.

Companies have been broken up in the past, with good results. A company might split itself to get around antitrust laws, which is fine if it results in actual competition. If not, that's what we call collusion, and that is already illegal.

That's kind of what that (tired and overused term) "late stage capitalism" is: monopolies, oligopolies, and lack of competition. Companies seem to naturally gravitate towards cornering markets or collusion. The sad thing is that both in the US and the EU (and elsewhere too probably), antitrust laws have become a joke in practice. Capitalism needs checks and balances, and keeping the free market working is the most important one even for the more laissez-faire minded. That means strict rules around market share. a free market cannot function without meaningful competition.

Remember: if you got a table with one Nazi and eleven people sitting down taking to her, you got a table with a dozen Nazis. And if you sit down at that table, you're a Nazi too. The only people who will talk with Nazis are other Nazis.

What is the definition of cannot pass through? Would the copy that is trying the pass through be blocked in some way?

I want to be able to walk up to the screen of a game and see the fly that just landed on a spectator's nose./p

Given many views inside a house, such as all the frames of a walk around video, i want software that can build a set of images of each wall, floor, and ceiling, in that house. Then i want software that can produce new views inside, at new designated angles that were not previously shot. If the input is fully complete, then the output should be, as well. most of the AI would be in scanning the input image frames to "understand" how each frame is shot. I have done this before, manually, a couple times, and merged the images. I think AI should be able to do this, to the extent the input covers.

Cool :) I must try to reread that again one day.
