Management would be a good application for AI.

AI isn't trying to get promoted and doesn't need four-hour status meetings twice a week.

Because parents have to go to work, and after-school programs have a set schedule.

Of course, employers and after-school programs could also adjust their start times for the seasons, and we could agree to switch those start times on the same day.

But that's just reimplementing DST.

How often do we encounter endangered bird embryos that lack eggshells?

I can see how this technology might be used to revive extinct species, but the claim that it helps endangered species is nonsense.

That people are using examples from three years ago is pretty good evidence.

Republicans have always been hypocritical about states' rights.

Abortion was a states' rights issue until RvW was overturned, and suddenly they wanted a national ban.

They want the Feds to overturn state-level pot legalization, ban sanctuary cities, etc.

That was three years ago, which is an eon in AI terms.

There have been vast advances since then.

The difference is, that at least until now open source teams have taken full advantage of these responsible bug disclosures and actually fixed their damn bugs. That Microsoft Windows bug was also responsibly disclosed, and Microsoft fumbled it anyway. Now we have a six year old exploit, which is public and available all over the place, and no mitigation.

I guess I'll stick with open source ...

I agree with your sentiment 100%, but the hacked entity was OPM, not OMB.

And it would seem you have never heard of asynchronous warfare.

That seems extra funny considering that we are watching it take place right now. The US spends more on military than anyone else on Earth, and we're still incapable of keeping the Strait of Hormuz open against such a "not a powerful country"

Make that make sense in your simplistic, deeply flawed understanding of how this is all shaking out.

They could make a functional weapon with 60% enrichment they have today. They would need to assemble a supercritical mass of about 42kg of enriched Uranium at ~60% U235, instead of ~15kg at 90% enrichment.

What you are saying is total bullshit.

Let me get this straight:

It's ok to call a spade a spade, unless that spade is Israel, and then you are antisemitic if you do so?

Get fucked. Genocide is genocide, and those that commit it and order it deserve a trial at The Hague, followed by playing Bridge with Slobodon Milosevic for the rest of their natural lives.

Well, we did have an agreement with them to not enrich nuclear materials, and they had basically declared it religious law to not make nuclear weapons. They even agreed to same-day intrusive inspections of facilities to verify compliance.

Who fucked that up again? Oh, the current idiot who somehow managed to fuck it up even worse.

But yeah, cling to that sarcasm while ignoring easily observed reality. That bitter taste in your mouth when you are filling your car with >$5/gal gasoline really helps, doesn't it?

Fucking idiot.

Also, the military is really good at solving military problems.

This isn't that. You can't effect regime change with aerial bombardment. And you can't open a waterway and keep it open from the air either.

The only way out is negotiation. Good thing we have the guy who hired a ghost writer to write "Art of the Deal" for him in charge!

Oh wait, we already had a negotiated settlement that left us far better off than we were today, and this idiot fuckup tore that agreement up, directly leading to today's crisis.

Can we start voting better now?

And running fiber over land is impossible?

Seems like they can cut a bypass over to the Red Sea or the Mediterranean and tell Iran to go fuck themselves.

Because there's just absolutely no other way to get data out of those countries besides running an undersea cable through a contentious waterway undergoing military blockade.

It sure was silly to build their countries in that impassible box canyon with infinite-height walls made of indestructible materials, covered with grounded wire mesh that absorbs all radio signals.
