Have you ever heard a single person, including plumbing professionals, call them "copper-phosphorus pipes"?

No. Because that's not how the English language works. You're the one who is too lazy and ignorant to figure out how people actually communicate in society.

Hint: The systematization your mind wants to apply to everything is not absolute. You need to figure out when to relax the formal logic rules when they start to result in absurd outcomes.

I don't know if it's still strictly true, but they used to say that all of the antimatter that has ever been produced by humans has had enough combined energy to warm up a cup of coffee.

You win this year's Nobel Prize for pedantry.

So according to you, I can't call the water pipes in my house "copper", since 0.05% phosphorus was added to the material to accomodate brazing.

Yes. We should all be our own FDA, EPA, and OSHA. That worked *really well* in the past.

Why does this change make sense? Because you can't plant a flag and wave your dick if you're up there in zero G orbiting a planetoid.

You have to be standing on the surface, and that is what China is on track to do in a few years.

Apparently, people who don't want to be ominously "converted".

At least they should take this opportunity to think of better branding for their phone. "Fire Phone" is a terrible name for any product that contains lithium ion batteries.

However, I don't see how "all AI" is going to work out. Computers were invented because they made predictable, repeatable calculations. That's important for things like safety and security. People aren't going to be happy if their phone hallucinates a custom map giving them driving directions onto the runway of their local airport, or takes the initiative to wire all the money out of their bank account to the link in an incoming scam email.

Seriously, if a person is betting six figures on the whether an interceptor worked, that person needs to re-evaluate their priorities.

This conundrum is the poster child of First World problems.

I originally thought that this website's decision to not allow new users to sign up was incredibly stupid and would result in a death spiral. Lately, though, I've started to think that there may be no other viable choice.

Yeah. I wish that were true. Trump was elected by a majority. And his current support numbers are still around 38%.

It turns out the number of idiots if really high. And the ones running the country and enforcing the 'laws' include a lot of 'em.

I would much rather go nearly anywhere in Europe.

You assume the wrong sense of "identify account".

Hint: In this case, it is not synonymous with "classify".

Like I said, you just *assumed* the wrong sense of "identify". You still do.

The headline is not incorrect. It just doesn't contain the entire summary. You therefore made the assumption that the verb "identify" applied to the wrong thing.

Just like your original comment didn't say that you were talking only about the headline. That was supposed to be inferred by the reader by your context. Maybe you should have set forth your entire argument in your subject line.

We all know that you're not supposed to read the linked article before pontificating on a topic here. But going exclusively with the headline and not even skimming TFS is hardcore.
