>Who cares if the sun is directly overhead at "noon"

That's what it's been for millennia, until the railroads introduced "standard" time, which kept the same intent - 12 PM is as close to noon as is practicable.

It's idiocy to move wall clock an hour from that. It has absolutely no benefit. If unlinking wall time from Sol, everyone might as well just go to UTC.

Form Energy makes these "100 hour" claims, acting like it's an advantage...

Delivers 100+ hour duration required to make the grid reliable year round, anywhere in the world, across all weather conditions. ... Allows utility operators to meet power demand with stored energy over time horizons previously not achievable.

But there's nothing preventing, say, lithium-ion energy storage from providing power for 100+ hours, it's just a matter of how much storage you have and how fast you use it. Is that "100 hours" actually a limitation they're trying to spin? Can their batteries not be discharged at greater than a 0.01C rate?

He's not worth the effort. If he wants to refute it, he simply has to get an article published in MIT Technology Review explaining how AI works.

You're an idiot. Learn to read.

>why bother knowing at all how things that we humans invented work?

It's not like anyone really knows how AIs work. We'll just let the AIs program the AIs. What could go wrong?

Actually, the quote began "The Department of War has no interest in using AI to conduct mass surveillance of Americans...". The FBI, CIA, INR, OICI, DHS on the other hand...

I do find insightful this quote from Geoffrey Gertz, a senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, regarding the threat to deem Anthropic a supply chain risk:

It's this funny mix where they both are such a risk that they need to be kicked out of all systems, and so essential that they need to be compelled to be part of the system no matter what

Because they don't think about what they're saying - it's just an automated, impersonal response with no meaning to them. They're just going through the motions. Which makes it even more rude.

Nope. "You're welcome" is akin to "I'm pleased to be of service." "No problem" is like "I wasn't bothered _too_ much to do what I'm paid to do."

And penalize them when they say "no problem." It's your job, of course it's not a problem.

F 'em. They'll probably hire a lawyer who does the same Artificial Idiot bullshit, for which they should be sanctioned if not disbarred.

It's simply a matter of having a clear policy stating any complaint with verifiably false info will be dismissed.

+ Gorilla Glass 7i (vs 3), got rid of the damn camera bump, slightly brighter display with more contrast, slightly longer battery life, faster charging. And hopefully, since there aren't a lot of core changes, there won't be a few months of sorting out new issues.

Solution: dismiss with prejudice any complaint which includes such falsities.

>It's like these things assume you are going to put a case on it that makes it nearly twice as thick.

Remember the old Nokia candybar phones which had replaceable covers? I want that in a modern phone. And an SD card slot which I can plug a $50, 256 GB card into instead of paying $100 for a 128 GB bump in storage.

And yes, camera bumps have always been an idiotic design. Make the phone as thick as needed and fill it with battery. Really, _no one_ is asking for thin phones, except the marketing department. That everyone is willing to put thick cases on to protect them is evidence of that. Same with "bezels". Making them thin just makes the screen more vulnerable to damage, and makes the phone harder to handle without "fat fingering" things.

>Microsoft cited policy violations related to low-quality content

I hope they're being consistent and also blocking Microsoft websites.
