The next major ransomware victims will sue Instructure for encouraging ransomware attacks.

This sounds like the video game version of the MadTV sketch Apple presents the iRack from a couple of decades ago, spoofing the war in Iraq.

They two AI moguls can destroy each other for all I care.

"Bureaucratic slip-up allows facility under construction to delay paying for water bill for several months. Coincidentally, facility happens to be a data center."

In principle, I can send your phone arbitrary unlimited data using just SMS, subject only to rate-limiting and management of dropped, delayed, or out-of-order SMS messages.

If I have your public key, I can send it to you encrypted.

In practice, I don't know if such a thing exists.

Back in the 20th century, you get student/teacher discounts through university/school channels and possibly from other authorized Apple resellers, but you had to show ID.

This is about getting wholesalers to pay them to take the data about where they source their stuff and who they sell it to at what rates so Amazon can replace their step in the chain as well.

Why buy a phone from an anti-American president, one that cares nothing for America?

It's a thing to make rich people richer, so keep tickling the dragon's tail with your infatuation.

... for the low low price of a quarter peta-buck.

There IS a place for AI as a coding assistant. If used right by someone who COULD write good code from scratch AND who is well-versed in using his AI tools, it could actually save time.

In very limited problem domains, non-AI program-generators and LLM-"AI" program-generators can actually produce usable, correct, reasonably efficient code almost all of the time. But so could a reasonably competent programmer who was an expert in the problem domain.

In any case, using AI is likely to use a lot of electricity.

Old way for a small task an entry-level person could do in 2 weeks solo: a week to design, a few days to code, a few days to unit test

New way - "official/what you tell your boss": a few hours to design/decide what you want the output to look like and rough-draft your prompts a hours to "code"/prompt the AI, including iterations, and a few hours to test the results.

New way - "reality/what you actually do": design? what's that? a few hours to iteratively create prompts until you get output that "feels good," and testing the results - yeah, right, who has time for that?

Sigh.

Dija expect honesty?

So, you buy a kit, motherboard and RAM. This will save your company.

The RAM was meant for personal computers--not billionaire AI assholes!
