You can give your teachers back the ability to fail students, much less give them less than A. It's over. If you are American, please send your children over seas for their schooling.

So this has nothing to do with technology, or even phones. It's just a ruling on when policy changes are legally allowed to take effect, Yay Slashdot. Always keeping your finger on the pulse.
So the nanometer lathing of tungsten steel is no longer needed. We'll just print it at the milimeter level out of resin!
So three Irishmen enter a bar... How are we to take this seriously?
I bet the doctors are talking about appointment management, appointment reminders, even auto medication refills, and NOT diagnosing patients.
WTF are google developers doing using Windows? Of course the "D Drive" disappeared. Window's been doing that kind of shit for what? 40 years?
Well false, and covered.
Firstly no, nuclear plants do not require daily maintenance. In fact the core / steam loops are largely maintenance free outside of planned shutdowns years in advance. Maintenance is usually only carried out every 24 months.
As to how, it's not exactly rocket surgery. This proposal just lowers two components to the bottom of a hole in a water column, just shut it down, cool it off (like you would do with a normal one), and then all you've got is the extra hour or so it takes to winch the thing up to the surface. It's not in any way buried or sealed down there.
I'm not talking maintenance of the actual reactor. I'm talking dials, valves, switches, even light bulbs, sensors, data collectors, etc. etc. And yes, that kind of stuff is on the daily "to fix" list. These are big complicated machines. You don't drop it in the ground and forget about it. They said they were going to run them remotely, which is really what I call shenanigans. Sure, you can put a couple of PCs anywhere in the world and "remotely control" any reactor, but you need access to all the piping, wiring, etc. and that means a big crew down under the ground.with the reactor.
Considering any kind of nuclear plant that we currently use requires daily maintenance, there are a lot of pieces to break not to mention fuel cycling, this is completely spurious.
So, you mean sugar. No, Ultra Processed Sugar!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE DO NOT HAVE AI. We have an expert system that is very efficient at weighing data and making random choices. THAT'S IT. We ALL KNOW it does not "think." It "wants" nothing. It runs on computers that we CAN SHUT DOWN. I'm so sick of this BS. Most "AI" projects are failing because the scammers who convinced idiot corporate heads to buy into it big time and to make more money off the hoopla IN THE SHORT TERM. How many times do we need to go through this. Quit spewing the propaganda that give to the billionaires any remaining pennies that the poor and uneducated need to just survive.
Does it keep out the entitled people carrying their little rat dogs into the store. I saw a god in the store in San Jose where we were staying at least every third time I went to the Safeway. I wish I had recorded my arguments about unsanitary conditions. Even the staff said "it's up to the manager." And the workers would often pet the rat dogs. Dog shit to their fingers to produce. No, no health issues at all. They of course claimed they were service dogs. Well I have a friend with a service. It smells her sugar level to alert here when she is close to a seizure. That is a great dog. That is a dog she can take anywhere she needs it. Those bitches (pun intended) and their rats think their prestige items are service dogs? "Oh he improves my mood." Fuck you bitch. I eventually went to another brand that was 10 minutes away by car, and gave us on the unsanitary shit hole.
Bu isn't this the same as when Apple had a 4%, 5% of the desktop market, and so many people here called them a dead company? Here, I'll start your comment to this for you
I thought so.
Well that's just "good business." You pump up stock for the quarter so half of the board can cash out on inflated revenue figures. Who cares about "long term viability?" Get in, fire everyone, raise prices, kill R&D. PROFIT.
Remember when the film War Games came out? Half the audience were enamored, "COMPUTERS!" The other half grumbled "turn off the modem." I think we at the same threshold. The solution to your AI servant? Turn off the computer. You might have a more productive meeting.
