You also have to give them achievable parameters. "You are always responsible" is not realistic. In some cases someone else is, in fact, responsible. And that's the rub of regulation, not that I think this means we shouldn't regulate, but it's going to always be true that doing it well takes effort. You can only ever reasonably expect that people are moving forwards (at best) and doing what is reasonably and humanly possible, and hopefully advancing the state of the art. Determining whether or not they are doing that is inherently complex.

That handout isnÃ(TM)t coming stop asking for it

The boomers got the handout. I don't want anything they didn't get.

I don't expect to get it. I do expect to immediately discount any bullshit from the hypocrites who got it and think I shouldn't get it.

You didn't get it, and you're insisting nobody deserves it because you didn't get it, which is sad. You're sad.

Comment okay... where? (Score 2) 47

You should also know that Canonical is looking for feedback before the specs for Myna are finalized, especially from people who already rely on dictation or assistive tools on Linux.

OK, how do we provide this feedback? The article is chock-full of links, but not one for that. It gives strong "get fucked" energy.

Since it's not worth putting out the effort to figure out where to submit some comments they definitely won't give a fuck about anyway: In no way is it a "first class" anything when it's only for GNOME and only in a snap. Let us know when it's ready for prime time so we can test it out and decide if we care. There's a 0% chance I'm going to use GNOME or snap.

Is it extremely laughable?

Yes.

To test your hypothesis, I compiled a list of as many U.S. Muslim elected politicians as I could (see below).

So you moved the goalposts and declared victory? Good work, clown.

So it's not "extremely laughable" at all. And when I asked AI why your comment was modded up to 5...

I don't know. Those licenses always had terms, fine print, and EULAs. Many of which I an confident had clauses that allowed the vendor to terminate your write to use the software at least under certain conditions.

Just because they had not effective detection and enforcement mechanism does not mean the legal condition never existed.

Honestly that gets us into other odd questions like what is a sold license is it an authorized/authenticated copy, the split of paper the license terms are printed on? If you did continue to use the software after an action that should have triggered revocation but the company did nothing to stop you from continuing would that take us into "adverse possession" territory?

Honestly if the lawyers really want to have fun the whole world around selling boxed copies of software with 'enter your license key' from the disk sleeve could have become really strange had it continued.

This is the problem. The practical uses cases as I understand them pretty much fall into the same buckets we use NLP for now. If you don't want to use LLM or GenAI technology we already have a lot of really great ML/NLP tools that do a really really good job.

In fact a lot of these tools would do a better (or at least more reliable) job of about 70% of what I see companies deploying in the customer service chat bot space, they'd be much cheaper and faster too. I have tried to explain to several clients, "You know you could do all this with Google DialogFlow" but no they'd rather wank around building MCP/SEE/Agenic replacements for the REST services they already have, futz around with prompt design, and then figure out how to test for abuse cases all so they can pay for tokens..

By they time you chain down Gemini/CoPilot/GTP down to respond in corporate approved ways half of customers could not tell the difference anyway and most would probably enjoy an experience that is consistent focused and quick.

And so it seems to go with 2Brains here, seems like an expensive and complicated way to do things we have been able to do well with NLP for 15 years now. Using LLM at scale means an expensive and complicated pile of machinery, but what is attractive about using them places where they are not really needed is "Its what all the cool kids are doing" not the expensive and complex part... Good luck 2brains...

Slashdot doesn't need this clickbait.

A stupid rich vain asshole killed people so intensely silly they cared about Titanic, whose sole claim to fame IS fame. The world is slightly wiser in consequence.

Think about it. There is no reason a functioning adult should be morbidly fascinated by a mere shipwreck but people crave to masturbate to drama, and romantic death appeals to the bitch-made (a perfect hood term for a much wider degeneracy) mind.

The other casualties were so cravenly silly they utterly failed to perform THEIR OWN due diligence before becoming someone else's suicidal beta testers. They were sufficiently educated to understand the basics, including that ZERO reason exists not to copy proven hull designs zero reason existed to change let alone use an utterly absurd choice of hull.

Rush had Alvin--tier money but pure vanity is why he chose a childishly silly hull design no reason existed to want because nothing about it was better. His loss is as minor as a common auto accident. Ditto the "collateral damage" who knew what they signed up for.
