Comment Re:Right nuts (Score 1) 224

From a centrist, your arguments are equally applicable to the other side.
Yeah Trump is an extreme nutjob. But the outliers exist in all equations.
Generally speaking both parties are equally corrupt. The Right AND the Left.

They're called "Politicians" and it doesn't matter what flavor they pretend to align to, they're all corrupt.

Comment Teach this person everything you know... (Score 1) 76

Yeah when told that, I'd make sure to transition as little as possible. The company is obviously cutting me, and that is a sign of zero loyalty, so why would they expect any back?

Severance pay? Ok, I'll teach this person a bunch of BS garbage so they think they're picking up something...

Good luck with that

Comment AI makes Bigmacs, not fine meals (Score 1) 121

Generally speaking AI makes bigmacs and not fine dining experiences. Especially when it comes to something that is more than a snapshot.

And it will always struggle with this because of its very nature. Its training models are designed to homogenize to the highest score for a thing (aka the middle).

Good artists/authors need not fear AI, just always make stuff that's better than it.

Artist/Authors who make bigmacs—they're the ones who need to be afraid.

Comment Re:fan stupidity created ticketmaster (Score 1) 22

Actually doing ticket sales as a dutch auction (not reverse) is fairly brilliant.

So the tickets start at $5000, and every few minutes drop in price until they're all sold out. People who must have the right seat pay more, people willing to wait for it to go down wait. The dutch auction process at its best.

Comment Start by not using government contractors (Score 1) 128

Gov contractors are THE WORST. They have turned milking the US Government into a science.

Put out a call for somebody to do the work, with a requirement that they can't have ever done work for the US gov before.

And don't be extremely prescriptive like "must support these 200 other interfaces to other systems written in 30 unknown ancient languages including screen scraping of that one system"

Comment Re:Finally... (Score 1) 284

The government doesn't pay for this stuff.
And SpaceX has done a great service for the government, driving down the cost of rocket launches so far that it's made the cartel that Boeing and Lockheed made to drive up the costs through a single bidder all but go out of business.
Your comment shows how myopic your perspective is, and how emotional it is, not based in any logic.

Comment Must be nice knowing your opinion is the right one (Score 0) 284

"Full nazi" seriously? do you not know history?
Get over your butt-hurt self and recognize other people can have differing opinions, and THAT IS OKAY.
I'm a very solid centrist, so I'm getting rather sick of seeing the right blow its lid over one election, then the left blowing its lid over another, and back and forth. It's just kindergarteners throwing tantrums every election. NOBODY ACTS ANY DIFFERENTLY. You aren't any better than the other guys.

Comment "Fake news" —prompted output (Score 2) 92

AI only gives what you prompt it to give.

There was not some "OMG it just said this out of the blue!"

The author prompted it to give that response. They even SAY it in the article, but frame it as if it wasn't them.

This is a troll author trying to get clicks on matters that are really past debate at this point. The laws will play out as everybody expects in the end. The owner is the person who prompted it. The tool user.

Comment It's a fundamental shift from something you know (Score 3, Insightful) 203

This is so big, and nobody seems to care. "Something you know" on its own isn't good, but combined with "Something you have" it becomes many fold more powerful.

CHANGING to passkey just means it is now ONLY something you have, and no longer is it MFA, and it's arguably worse than a strong password.
