I diddled some children, so you're fired.

There are accounts of people who've witnessed a UFO, and for whatever reason, "didn't feel the urge to snap a photo". There are UFO researchers who've encountered a UFO, with camera in hand, and yet, are dumbfounded that they "didn't feel like taking a picture" or " it hadn't occurred to them" until after the fact.

Let's hope Oracle never buys them out. They'll assert ownership over dBase, defeature it, try to sue anyone who targets it and replace it in the storyline.

I await the news that Google has the keys to this and use it for.

You're unlikely to hear this news without either another Snowden level leak, or a very long, drawn out legal battle.

Anyway, mayhem the billionaires will make their own slaves.

1) Convince us it tastes the same.
2) Obviouslty this threatens ranchers everywhere and they're not going to go quietly

I suspect there will be some weasel wording around "gross" versus "net". A lot of people I know are getting laid off while their companies continue hiring. It's not even a shift in resources or skillsets, it's a true revolving door.

again, false statement.

the remote ops do NOT 'drive' the car 100% of the time. what percentage? we dont know but I'd guess its less than 10%, probably even lower.

nothing is level 5 yet. get that in your head. no one claims level 5, either.

what I'd like to know is how often waymo needs 'help' remotely vs tesla vs any other.

I suspect that tesla that is sensor-poor needs 10x as much help as waymo.

(I used to work in car biz, in a self driving car co.)

Lets not forget those flock cameras that are recording us everywhere. Surprised and disappointed the kids in our neighborhood havent smashed them.

I don't think it's malicious. Most people who lose weight by any sort of diet end up putting it back on. The whole concept of a "diet" is inherently flawed. It should be looked at more like treating alcoholism or drug addiction, except that you can't go cold turkey, and you probably can't even control your lifestyle.

What we fundamentally need is a device that monitors our calorie intake and our calorie expenditure and starts asserting itself when our budget is off. The one nature provided isn't working out.

This is the super rich who have crashed the economy yet again trying to calm you down so you do not demand they fix the problem they caused.

There is a continued push to convince people to do things, or have their kids do things, the speaker won't do themselves:
- Join the military
- Skip college
- Take up the trades
- Nursing!
- Do manual, unskilled labor

All of those are fine options in theory, but there are definitely reasons we aren't doing them until better options have run out. I'm not optimistic those reasons have changed, just the rate at which better options are running out.

My condolences and heartfelt sympathy for Dell employees about to undergo what must be the 300th failure to try to do this thing in the past 20 years. You will singularly bear the brunt of the pain, you will endure insane new meetings that will go nowhere and do nothing, and the result will be yet another new, mediocre thing to deal with.

But operating a computer on a virtual screen?

It's actually really good at this and is my favorite way to use it, particularly when I'm not at home. It ends up being a large, high resolution screen that you can sit comfortably on a couch and work with. I spend a lot of time coding in this environment.

It's video games that I'm not sold on yet. It's great at RTS/factory/flight sim games, or when you can stand still and shoot/slap/etc. It's not great when you're moving.

I prefer scotch with my beef, but I guess that means I'm just a commie.

Those of us who don't work for anthropic, and whose bean counters are large and in charge will definitely not appreciate 5 (or more) free-running claudes. Either you'll spend a lot of money, or they'll just impose a token limit and 5 claudes will just be 5 hung terminals. If it's important, you'll have to go through a corporate approval/procurement process to have the cost approved.

I'd rather just write code than spend all day sell-sell-selling.
