Comment Half the Amazon coding test is using AI (Score 1) 163

So I didn't bother putting in a couple hours of work to prove could train their AI to replace me, and went to work for a smaller company that does things the hard way instead. Granted, AI is a LOT faster than I am, but about 1% of the time it's absolutely wrong, meaning you have to absolutely verify all it's output regardless... which makes me suspect the AI part of the coding test was actually to see if you could catch the AI's mistakes.

Surprise! It's $24 Billion with a B! That's how much ransom Trump is willing to pay to get himself out of vietnam. If only Israel will stop attacking Lebanon. Which they won't. So this continues on ad infinitum. Welco mm e to the forever war literally everyone told him not to get into, and countless generals took early retirement in protest for. But keep pushing a partisan agenda.

This is a three sided war, Israel needs to also agree to all the terms including the "don't invade lebanon" one. At this point they have shown zero indication of signing the MOU. Without participation of Israel this thing is pretty much dead in the water.

Comment Flight to quality (Score 1) 110

The US has had price shocks with Iran and Russia and..... there was a flight to quality. To GOLD. The price of bitcoin sat flat, and then shrank, whereas the price of gold keeps going up and up. Bitcoin never really recovered after that. First real test of bitcoin as a store of wealth and it failed. It's never really recovered since then. Gold remains king.
 
I don't actually own any gold and don't have an interest in it, but it's been hilarious to hear people claim bitcoin was digital gold, and when push came to shove, people pushed bitcoin off a cliff, and the price of gold stayed strong, proving all the bitcoin promoters wrong once and for all.

V2G is user configurable until they push an OTA update and then it isn't. Maybe I'm just a pessimist, but I could see a scenario where GM, Tesla or whoever just up and decides to sell your battery capacity, or maybe they're forced by the government to do it.

In any event, I'd welcome being able to use my car as a giant battery bank to power *my* house / refrigerator / heater in the event of a prolonged power outage. Everyone else can suck it.
