NSA_KEY is already taken too.

No mod points today but your volunteer effort far surpassed the [presumably paid] author's WTAF essay.

Right, so in Norway nobody is going hungry, dying from being too poor to afford medical treatment, being kept down by an inability to access education, having to go in to work when they're sick, or freezing to death on the streets because they're out of options?

"They've got a huge problem!"

So say people whose own countries have all those problems and spend more on worse outcomes.

The Norwegians' biggest risk is "good times make weak men" but at least one author I listen to on YouTube indicates that Viking Culture is still alive and well there (though he does bemoan creeping feminine wokeness). Second might be that the YooKay decides Norway had the temerity to build their nation on YooKay's oil (given their complete 200y failure to colonize Russia). In that case they will need the Viking Spriit.

The cynic might believe that such an author's complaints are meant to create shame in order to extract more work out or their labor force for corporate profits. Though it does stand in contrast to the Transhumanists' AI/UBI/CBDC societal aspirations.

Ask Cambodians if they're glad they've avoided Norway's folly.

Innate capability and not fulfilling one's potential by wasting time are really two separate causes of being 'stupid'.

To argue for the point, none of the inventions you mention have offered the promise of doing your thinking for you.

I can see both sides but definitely some people will never achieve depth on any subject if they're asking an LLM to present a surface level analysis.

Yet some may say if an LLM can do it that's not what Humans are best at.

Predicting this future witht any certainty seems like the most Dunning-Kruger possible by the authors.

Did you notice his handle?

It might be a reference to how Biden broke his foot 'pulling his dog's tail in the shower'.

German Shepard, but the GP probably would have to ask ChatGPT what the difference is.

I can't imagine loving a politician who doesn't even know me but some people are weird.

This is interesting so it raises the question of whether other hurricanes strengthened last time this layering happened and one passed over.

That this storm strengthened /exactly/ when a solar storm hit Earth seemed like a more promising anomaly but a strong dataset would support their hypothesis and rule out a massive coincidence.

As the meme says, "we knew more about the Coldplay Kisscam couple after one day than we know about Matthew Crooks after one year."

Be careful about what people find interesting but be even more careful about what people find anti-interesting.

Especially the "free press".

Yeah and those people would have thrown a bricked bike through the front window of their corporate headquarters.

Amazon tried real hard to upsell me a wifi sprinkler timer yesterday.

Ha, no, the $18 microcontroller-based timer will do just fine. They could have temped me with a Matter/Threads unit but no, they don't try that hard. Doesn't "Work with Alexa".

Imagine my garden dying because a tree fell on the Comcast line and it took a few days to rebuild. Such weird expectations! I wonder how many "smart" households went bonkers during the 4hr Starlink outage?

In the GSR (Gossip, Shame, Rallying) Model this is a biological imperative.

So you would expect high costs to be easily paid if the model is accurate and the service fills the need.

Some might say the theory fits the data.

I'm that weirdo who won't save fifty cents on a can of Spaghetti O's by signing up for a "loyalty" surveillance card but most people aren't in the slim minorities.

A subset of people are really against DANE which lets you self-attest your TLS cert without a parallel PKI. DNSSEC was the PKI in that model.

There are pros and cons but a big con was people not paying for certs.

Now with LetsEncrypt we have DV certs almost everywhere, few people pay for certs, and two PKI's with little protection for anything else that uses DNS.

Oh, and LetsEncrypt would be marginally better off with DNSSEC. Their new observation standard at least helps mitigate BGP shenanigans.

If Proxmox et. al. had a mole inside Broadcomm they couldn't do much better.

Microsoft was too overt and sloppy.

Even the Vice President is calling out their pivot to an Indian H1-B labor force as bullshit.

On top of just being caught using labor in China to administer US DoD systems.

Nadella is going to become the poster boy for unAmerican behavior by immigrant management.

Yes, but people who don't know how the markets really work have strong opinions to the contrary.

In the end, though, this is about AI HFT, not economic justice.

Interesting that power scaling wasn't available at release time, but nice that they're doing it.

Power bills never go down and AI is squeezing family budgets.

It might also help in warm climates without air conditioning, both to avoid overheating and not warming up the house as much.

Certainly that microclimate change is something they can actually have an impact on.

And the binding membership of the ICJ is limited to those party to that particular treaty.
