Comment The opportunities for corruption are endless... (Score 2) 229

This reminds me of the Dukes of Hazard TV show where the corrupt deputy had a remote controlled speed limit sign and as soon as the Duke Boys were too close to slow down, he would drop the speed limit.

I can imagine the price flipping after I put something in my basket.

Speaking if which, I wonder if AI can let me test parts of code even if the whole thing does not compile?

It's so sad that these "authors" have nothing left to contribute and only sue the productive people.

There are 2 kinds of people: the productive and the litigious. There is no cross-over.

If someone starts suing people, you can assume they never were productive. If an author starts suing people, you can assume they plagiarized everything they ever did.

I wonder who really wrote those novels?
