Well assuming you're not just trolling which is assuming a lot then EA is going to take features out of the games you enjoy and then sell them back to you at a premium. The entire design of the games you enjoy will be radically altered to try and push your buttons so that you will part with more money. So even if you have limitless cash because you're Elon Musk (and I could see him wasting his time trolling slashdot after all he's never invented anything so he's got nothing but time) the basic design of the games you enjoy is going to be radically altered to turn them into nasty little Skinner boxes designed to get money out of you...

...coding models? Are they comparable to the expensive ones?

I want a refund on my See Instant Crater event tickets! They costed me half a bitcoin, dammit!

Musk: "Stupid woke moon, eh, should be locked up or given correctional therapy to, eh, put it into a business-friendly orbit. It's in a socialist orbit right now. Put the socialists in orbit instead, heh heh heh."

Snow, rain, fog, changes in roads, construction, flooding.

Humans fuck those up also. It's just that traffic fortunately tends to be light during bad weather so that our screwups have limited impact. During the last heavy rain I drove in at night I probably made 10+ traffic violations because I couldn't see the damned lines. Fortunately there weren't a lot of other cars around to be co-confused with: the wise stayed home.

And if there is traffic in bad weather, such as work commutes, one just typically follows the person in front of them. If they by chance drove off a cliff I'd probably follow them down. So we have rules-of-thumb that mostly save us, but are highly imperfect.

I believe the goal has to be "better than humans" because humans seem to have a double standard for bots per screwups. Bots F-ing up spread like wildfire on social media.

Maybe we are collectively bigoted against automation, but being bots probably won't lobby to correct that or fight for their (alleged) rights, that's probably the way it will stay (at least until true sentience). Thus, I agree with the premise the driving system must be better than a human driver to be accepted.

Antitrust doesn't just ask is this a monopoly it also asks will this substantially reduce competition or negatively impact consumers.

You don't have to be a monopoly to run afoul of antitrust law properly enforced. Just like how you don't have to murder somebody before you can be brought up on charges for conspiracy.

He can do all the bullshit outrage posts for clicks he wants he has never once spoken out in detail or frankly at all about county level voter suppression or what to do about it. He is yet another useless progressive. Somebody who just wants to go back to the '60s and how much fun they had in protests back then instead of thinking about and dealing with the incredibly boring work of stopping voter suppression where it's happening.

He's especially bad because he has the background in statistics that he can actually see the effects of county level voter suppression and fully understand them. I've seen some academics do studies but I have to admit some of it escapes me. I do know a broken voting machine and a 7 hour wait time when I see one though and they always seem to be in blue districts...

Fetterment is 20 points below water in polls. As soon as the next election comes around he's out. Exact same thing happened to that Sinema. The real issue is that these are senators so it's 6 years before we can kick them out which is by design

Possible but it's easy enough to clean up in a pinch as long as you catch it and it's easy enough to catch early on unless you have underfunded your regulatory agencies because somebody called them bureaucrats...

And when we hit the general election and there is literally billions of dollars of money blasting the eyeballs of your neighbors that's going to be tough. Remember it's not just about convincing you it's about getting voter turnout from people who are otherwise super low information and haven't got a clue what dropping a data center in there county means and even if they did they wouldn't have the mental capacity to put two and two together...

This is why education especially the humanities is so important. It's very difficult to teach people how to think with mathematics no matter what nerds say. That's because with math you're either right or you're wrong there is no in between at least not until you are doing graduate level work.

There is a lot of value in teaching the humanities because somebody can be half right and still learn something from it. With mathematics somebody who is struggling with learning how to think and how to think critically is either going to fail the class or they're going to brute force it with rote memorization. Neither of which is going to teach them how to think.

This is just a Democrat primary they still have to win their election. And if they do it's probably because they are in a heavily gerrymandered district...

The Democrats are going to have a hard time leaning into anti-data Center because even though it's extremely popular the most powerful and wealthy members of the Epstein class on Earth have decided whether you and I like it or not data centers are getting built and we're all just going to have to pay for it because you don't get rich by paying for things you get rich by making other people pay for the things you enjoy.

They have private armies. Literally. They're basically untouchable. You can't really solve political problems with violence. Not anymore anyway.

then it's considered beatified behavior.
