As I told you clearly, not changing the clock kills MORE people.
So fuck yourself.

If you had any critical thinking skills, you'd realize that my original point applies not only to keeling over, but also to feeling unwell.
More feeble people would suffer throughout the year with either permanent DST or standard time than the current one bad night in March. (Which, BTW, could be totally avoided by planning ahead and adjusting your bedtime a few minutes per day in the preceding week.)
Biology matches DST adjustments more than a fixed clock. Most everyone woke up with the sun from the dawn of humanity until the late 19th century, and adjusting the clock for the seasons stays closer to that.
Then I suggest you never travel east or west by more than a few miles. You seem feeble.
Permanent ST is more closely aligned with circadian biology, although earlier dusk may limit some evening activities
You know what's aligned even more with circadian biology?
Keep the current system, get up off your ass, and change your clocks twice per year without whinging like a precious snowflake.
That way you you don't have to deal either with the sun beating down on you while you try to sleep at 4am or with your poor children getting run over in the dark on their way to school.
Sure, a couple of codgers might keel over in march, but they were probably gonna die soon anyway. It's much harder to measure the statistics of all the other people who would die steadily throughout the year due to the aforementioned issues, as well as similar problems caused by a static clock that doesn't adjust at all to when the sun actually rises. However, I would bet good money that it would add up to far more casualties overall.
For some reason, I seem to be in a small minority on this issue, though. It's probably because everybody would rather believe in a solution to the problems of living on a tilted axis that's clear, simple, and wrong.
Right⦠because EVERYBODY fully reads and understands the TOCs of every service they useâ¦
People don't read a lot of things that they agree to, especially if it's 20,000 words in a postage stamp-sized text box on the new toy they just turned on. However, anybody who's not an idiot realizes that most everything in an agreement that they haven't read is against their interests, and plans accordingly. I personally always look for binding arbitration agreements and make sure to opt out of those whenever possible.
Oddly enough, the Anthropic TOS and privacy policy actually aren't all that obtuse and can be skimmed in a few minutes. They make it clear that they'll be looking for problems with what you upload and what kinds of problems those might be. Like I said, you can easily avoid all that by using a paper notebook for your diary.
There is a clause in the statute: "in any manner in which it may be viewed by another person". I would argue that it's her diary and not meant to be viewed by anyone. I don't disagree that turning her in was the right thing to do but I doubt she'll be convicted.
If you look at Anthropic's terms of service and privacy policy, it clearly states that they can look at your content in order to enforce their usage policy. You have to agree to this when you set up an account or use their service. Given that this is an AI company, you can bet your content will be screened for violations more efficiently than if humans were involved at every step.
If she really didn't mean for anyone else to view it, she would have scribbled it down in a notebook instead of uploading into a cloud owned and policed by strangers and their robots.
AM radios in cars only cover the small intersection of people who don't already have an emergency kit containing an AM radio, but do happen to be in a working vehicle during a disaster.
It's useless for anyone who's outside of a vehicle for whatever reason - eg vehicle is damaged, out of fuel, had to be abandoned, or was not available nearby when the disaster struck.
And what about people without a car?
Also if you've been forced to abandon your car due to the disaster, there goes your radio too since you can't easily remove it and wouldn't be able to operate it even if you could. A portable radio can be taken with you.
Depends on the nature of the disaster.
High winds can easily destroy solar panels.
Thick clouds will massively reduce the amount of power they can produce.
Thick smoke would be even worse.
At least he didn't write "I hope you are well"...
AM radio has very poor audio quality, you wouldn't want to be listening to music that way.
And your problem is trying to stream. Modern phones can have more than a terabyte of capacity, more than enough to store anything you'd want to listen to at a reasonable quality level.
It's a paper copy of underground utility records and a backhoe.
I don't believe teams has e2ee at all?
In any case you typically don't need or want that in a work environment. Encryption between client and server is enough, as the org controls the server and wants to be able to view/monitor communications between its employees.
Any company that was using something else before teams came along also complains bitterly about teams - it's different and in many ways inferior.
I know several places that switched from slack to teams, they all universally hate teams.
