In general these people are direct reports. Are you saying that in general management should inform HR of the relationship and have the alternate protocols you mention implemented?

Also choice assignments, mentoring, and other discretionary rewards can fall outside of such direct management.

Yes, and he'd likely still be CEO if he had.

So you have no logical rebuttal. Is that become you cannot rebut the notion that today AI is a natural part of search?

Don't overestimate the more attractive, pretty privilege can lead to complacency and less effort put into things. And pretty privilege fades with time.

If today's google search incorporates AI (*), and the school banned anything AI, isn't it the school's decision not google's? Perhaps schools need to be more selective about their AI ban?

(*) Whether incorporating AI into general search is a good idea or not is a separate issue. It's not hard to believe that AI may outperform a "page rank" or whatever other criteria google is using. And search users seem to want some LLM functionality. Simple conversion for example, they want the converted number not a lookup table.

Didn't get the better performance reviews, choice assignments, mentoring, and other discretionary rewards? That's one of the problems with sexual harassment. Those that don't participate can be negatively impacted too.

And the US Congress, Democrats and Republicans. Pelosi, Ro Khanna, etc. Members of Congress who also voted down legislation prohibiting such trading.

People go to Washington - President, House, and Senate ; Republican and Democrat - receive a "modest" salary, yet somehow leave Washington with immense increases in their personal wealth. Multiple times their wealth in amazing short timeframes.

By shill you mean someone with an IRA or 401K, a self funded retirement .

I do every year, as does every else. You are confusing unearned income with unrealized income.
Unearned income is interest and dividends you actually received.
Unrealized income is a theoretical price increase, one for which you have received nothing, one which can reverse are prices decrease.

The "wealth taxes" are going after this hypothetical unrealized income, unearned is already taxed.

You are conflating what I say with what a citation incidentally mentions. By the way, the CCP ordering increased capacity indicates they are still promoting coal usage. And again, a US president or a US government cannot issue any such order. US industry has been moving away from coal for around 70 years, preferring the less polluting natural gas when desiring the flexibility of fossil fuels.

From reading more last night, I think the funnels were removed and the ship is upright. So if its resting at its target depth the top of the superstructure should be in 55-60ft.

From AI conversations it sounds like the ship has been opened up to wildlife and the requisite water circulation. So diver penetration is plausible, and a hazard for local business taking divers out there. I'm sure there will be plenty of lectures about not penetrating the ship. Maybe the bridge with its windows removed could be accessible if it is shallow enough. An overhead hazard but with easy egress.

No, the OP's point was a good one. It pointed out that other industries also do not want to take on the additional risk of AI agents. Also I think you underestimate the risk to airlines. You erroneously conflate dollar risk with threat to the company. A lower dollar threat can still be a significant threat to an airline. The important thing here not the dollar amount, but the impact on the company.

And that is my point as well. There is *NO* risk being accepted by United. They provide a service in exchange for money.

United lives and dies by live people sitting in seats. AI Agents with no human oversight could impact that.

Like a bank, an AI Agent could use the standard web portal.

Again, I don't think you understand the hazard of an empty seat.

Airlines are also regulated and are responsible for their human clients. And both wish to protect those human clients from errors made by their AI Agents. Both do not want to be involved with any errors made by their AI Agents.

You being a human being, which has some accountability under the law themselves. Unlike an AI Agent.

Outlook is part of Windows, it's not an Office365 exclusive like Word, Excel, etc. I believe Office365 offers some legacy version.

Should we email Microsoft and advise them on how to install Linux and FreeBSD on their servers?

Though realistically, because 240Pu (from waste) is worse in a fission bomb than 239Pu - generally no more than ~20kT, and challenging to get more than a few kT - still enough to take out a city centre but not a metro area - you'll generally want a fusion weapon, which means deuterium and tritium supplies. And Ukraine doesn't run CANDUs, so you're not going to get tritium from the coolant. They'd need lithium targets / lithium in the coolant to breed tritium. Separation of tritium and deuterium are a mix of chemical, electrochemical, and/or physical separation, but are much easier than uranium isotopic separation (deuterium is double the mass of protium, and tritum triple the mass, so the chemical / electrochemical behavior is actually notably different in a lot of situations, unlike uranium).

For a fusion bomb they'd also want a depleted uranium tamper, but Ukraine probably has ample access to that, whether from weapons, armour, old Soviet stocks, etc. Even spent nuclear fuel is mostly 238U, if they don't mind the tamper being highly radioactive.

My personal best guess would be that Ukraine's unstated policy is to have "sprint capacity", like Japan and South Korea do. That is, to not make weapons or anything that would get them flagged as having a weapons programme, but to have everything needed that, if the word "Go" was given, that they could nuclearize very quickly.

Unlike your typical rogue state that seeks to get nuclear weapons, Ukraine has no need for mass centrifuge facilities or anything like that. They already have plutonium en masse, as they're a major nuclear power generation state with extensive waste supplies. Plutonium extraction via PUREX is merely metallurgy (it's not a simple metal to work with, but it doesn't require isotopic enrichment). You need nitric acid (bog standard, nobody will blink an eye), a reducing agent like ferrous sulfamate (not much of a red flag, it has tons of uses), and an organic solvent like tributyl phosphate (a little bit of a red flag, but it has other uses, and there are alternatives), and a bit of gallium (~1%) for alloying - not a problem. Ukraine could very readily have all of this on-hand, an underground lab ready to go, and a rolodex of people to staff it if the order is given. They'd need high explosives like PBXs or TATB, but nobody would blink an eye at Ukraine buying them. High speed switches for the detonators used to be a big red flag item, but today they increasingly overlap with power electronics for motors and power grids. You need neutron initiators, but there's a number of options for that. And running bomb physics simulations and doing small component tests is something they could easily have under the radar - if they don't outright have old Soviet design plans dusted off and ready to go.

The biggest red flag would be Ukraine inexplicably removing nuclear waste (for processing) and/or trying to defeat IAEA monitoring, so that would likely be not done unless nuclear tensions looked severe. Because if it looks like you're sprinting to a nuclear weapon, it increases the odds of a preemptive nuclear strike against you.

"... the character being registered must identify and distinguish the source of the work. In a video game context, this means the character must create an association between the mark and software in order to be eligible for trademark protection. For example, this might include the character being centrally depicted on the launch screen, website, or other marketing materials for the video game — or anything else that would cause an individual to associate the image of the character with the video game. This same concept can also apply to images of a character from a comic book or cartoon."
