They would have been dead only because these prototypes have no place for a human to strap in and no life support systems. (And they "landed" it in water as per their test plan, so I suppose drowning would also have been a factor.)

Otherwise, the reentry actually was survivable. Despite having low odds of success prior to launch.

Laws and regulations against fraudulent impersonation can be strengthened. Campaigns and business advertisements come to mind. AI may be an immediate source of concern, but any fraudulent impersonation can have the same impact.

I do not believe banning AI impersonation entirely would work, and it would need loopholes for fair use like parody.

You can be picky about your job, but expect employers to be picky about their hires.

I agree with you actually, people should be only asked to work a reasonable and healthy number of hours. But capitalism does not care about that. And neither do the politicians who work for the capitalists, who tell them that unemployment makes for preferable labor market conditions.

I literally just told you.

Stop putting words in my mouth, I never said such a thing.

I am clearly NOT advocating for voting on principle when the likely result is real harm for people. That was the point of my original comment: "Unfortunately when the choice inevitably becomes Republican-light vs. Republican-fascist, the Democrats get the benefit of that calculus."

Yes, because that Democrat favors the entrenchment of capitalism just as Republicans do. They helped enact a healthcare system that is worse than common socialized healthcare (even if it is better than our previous system). They provided little help for workers crushed by giant corporations, such as when they blocked the United Railroad Workers strike. They, at times, have been just as bad on border policy as mainstream Republicans. Very few of them actually care enough about common people, giving in to GOP narratives by rejecting socialism outright.

But so that I am clear: these are all much better positions than the Greene and Boebert clan would have us in (who appear to run the GOP in Congress despite having nowhere close to a majority in their own party). But they feel more like the relatively moderate positions of Republicans a couple of decades ago, instead of the progressive positions that would truly turn the country around.

We can have better, but only if we sufficiently demand it.

Unfortunately when the choice inevitably becomes Republican-light vs. Republican-fascist, the Democrats get the benefit of that calculus.

Performed much better than previous test. And the pad appears to have no damage, which was the biggest issue last time. It was a win.

1/10, you need to work on your bait technique

The vaccines were tested before EUA, and those results were made public before the vaccines were.

Covid was such an emergency that waiting for full approval was much more dangerous. That said, I personally understand why some people chose to wait for approval and utilize other measures such as staying home, social distancing, and masking in the mean time.

But that was a very small portion of the people who did not get vaccinated. Many of those people did not take precautions. And they did not get vaccinated after full approval.

What makes you think the output will be objective if the input isnâ(TM)t? AI trained on data that includes systemic bias will produce biased results.

And sure, it would be fine if people took that information with the proper grains of salt. But you know that wonâ(TM)t happen; propaganda proves the opposite every day.

Maps-while-driving is really a great use case for HUD-based AR.

Oh, ok. I never thought of it that way.

It has been unraveling for 2 years. Time to admit that your anti-science posturing is exactly that, rejecting the mountains of evidence in favor of some loud people.

Maybe P does equal 0, and we've been fools.
