for the right to be lied to!

And not just the by the right.

You aren't screwing podcasters. You're screwing artists who could be using podcasts to help promote their music

The directors of (UMG) should be in jail for crime against humanity!

And no ... jailing their bots is not a good solution.

If a company commits a crime, the directors* should go to jail.

* "C suite" for Americans.

... Their ongoing buzzword scenario makes them look extremely stupid.

... I can bin the TV, and use a decent monitor on my PC instead?

Its pretty clear that broadcast TV has no future - bits or no bits.

Honestly, it was the tone of the message, which is admittedly difficult to derive from a forum. IMHO, the proper response would have been one that questioned whether the 'upscale grocer' selling spareribs at $6.99/lb vs $1.49/lb were at different ends of the subjective or objective quality spectrum. In my case, they are literally the same brand: Smithfield. The only difference is that Aldi is $5+/lb less expensive.

That said, IMO, unless we're talking about a butcher that sources heritage-breed Berkshire (or the like) pork from a local farmer, I don't really give a flying fuck where the previously cheap cut of meat I'm going to put on my smoker for 6h is sourced from.

Why would I pay $6.99/lb at one of the 'upscale grocers' in town for spareribs when I can get them at Aldi for $1.49? I, too, drive a Mercedes, but it doesn't mean I'm a fucking moron w/my money.

You were hoping for Artificial Intelligence.

What you got was Alienating Incompetence.

(A nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse).

No one has "Given Up" on Mercator who actually has to use a map for navigation.

Mercator gets the angles right - essential for arriving where you want to go.

In reality: the world is a globe.

depending on the content.

I often use 75% speed when listening to foreign language videos.

However, as other have already said, pointless blathering is a major problem. I find the best solution to that is to skip to the next video. Blathering at 150% speed is still blathering.

If you store someone else's data, you should ask what should happen to it if they die (or cancel their contract).

Then you should do what they said.

If the customer and supplier are in different countries, then the presumption should be that the Client's country legal system applies.
In all cases, with no option for the customer to be bullied out of this by large companies.

The average employee lasts well less than a year at a fast casual; this had little to do w/her background.

I am absolutely certain many of those kids are great at writing code; what I have found in the last ~3y of hiring candidates out of undergrad and/or masters programs is that they DO NOT interview well.

They can answer esoteric technical questions about software dev (I *assume* this is because they study for coding interview questions) but they cannot possibly answer more general questions about themselves, how they would operate in a real-world business setting, and/or how they might build something from soup to nuts.

I'm not asking them to give me real-world experience; but, I expect a college graduate to be able to think about questions asked critically and provide a coherent and thoughtful reply to that question. Even if it's technically 'wrong', the conversational nature is INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT for any work I have done in my 25+ year career.

Anyone can have AI solve most esoteric technical coding problems now; interfacing ability w/others on the dev teams and the rest of the business is what is important in getting shit done.

Colleges need to start investing HEAVILY in leveling up their students in how to interview well.

"Ms. Mishra, the Purdue graduate, did not get the burrito-making gig at Chipotle."

I think this single sentence says more about it than anything else in the article.

If AI is used, the search tool to show "dangerously wrong" in its answers.

Once something is found, you can't unfound it.

You obviously believe in reality. Therefore you are "woke" and everything you say must be ignored!
