wow lets poison DNS, surely no one will start linking these piracy sites via ip addresses or create alternative domain names. wcgw.
“as a first priority.” Nakasone will “also contribute to OpenAI’s efforts to better understand how AI can be used to strengthen cybersecurity by quickly detecting and responding to cybersecurity threats.”
So what you’re saying is that the guy is there to setup data collection to feed to the NSA surrounding any and all inputs and ensure that the inputs are not able to be used for any meaningful intelligence actions by US competitors. Got it.
I’m not really thrilled about almost all the money in show business being funneled to a couple of actors and actresses and giant studios/big money.
Over and over again the majority of writers, actors, actresses and supporting teams strike for a real share and they never seem to get one.
Meanwhile big companies get billions in tax credits every year for shooting movies. The public subsidizes the costs and then pays again once a show releases. It’s insanely big bucks going to the ownership class.
AOL still has 1.5 million active monthly subscribers. People forget to cancel subscriptions all the time.
Subscriptions are a great way to sell a service to someone who isn’t using it, and when they want to cancel it getting the spent money on something never used is generally impossible.
IMO for something like a streaming service… if you don’t stream a minute of video in a month you shouldn’t have to pay anything.
it’d suck you had your car wrecked by someone broke and were SOL
Welcome to New Hampshire, land of 0 auto insurance.
can you going to mcdonalds twice a day be shared with your health insurer?
You think this data isn’t already shared?
Call me an asshole but I think giving driving habit information to insurers is great, so long as good habits are given discounts and bad habits are punished.
I’m one of those people who would love automatic enforcement of driving laws as well as user reportable incidents of other drivers (given you can provide footage of something you’re reporting.)
If people don’t like living under the law… maybe the law shouldn’t exist. “That’s the way it is” is a terrible excuse for fucking anything.
Oh, and make audit trails for this shit public record. Someone creating AI videos or fake reports? Punish that too. It’ll never happen though. People want laws for others, not themselves.
About a month after surgery the implant started to perform poorly. They tweaked some software settings and now it’s running better than it did before the drop-off for a longer period, based on the actual blog post the story is talking about https://neuralink.com/blog/prime-study-progress-update-user-experience.
This is obviously prototype technology with insane risk. The guy only signed up because he’s paraplegic. It’s not in any way remotely ready for normal humans and probably won’t ever be in our lifetimes. IMO this is like self driving technology, it’s easy to promise the world but hard to actually accomplish what they say.
Why pay for the prime account? What are you getting out of it?
Have you done the math of what you could do with $140 per year instead?
I unsubbed from prime last year once the ads were announced on prime video.
There’s no reason to have it anymore imo.
A VPN sub is like $40 a year and that lets me get any media I want.
Free Shipping without prime starts at orders over $35. Who doesn’t spend at least $35 in 2024?
Nope, but if you’re gonna claim your son died and you have no son… well conservatives think fetuses are babies.
There’s a lot of issues and there’s a lot of nuanced factors. I can’t even begin to cover all the ones I know about, let alone know them all.
High up in politics there is no meeting in the middle, the other party is the enemy. You’re in the club or outside of the club, that’s it. That same attitude trickles down to workplaces and social circles. If you want to work with the other team you get put on the sidelines, minimized, have your funding cut, miss out on a promotion. It’s essentially join or die, and often times you see people throwing death threats at the other side online where they presume they are anonymous.
Then there’s Education. It’s mostly dogmatic. It’s not about teaching life skills, it’s about teaching people to be good workers and to follow along with the status quo with a sprinkling of whatever political ideology runs the state/town. That doesn’t help, but changing any of it is highly political.
Universities tend to be liberal, and the highly conservative jobs tend to not require those degrees. You can be a master electrician right out of vocational school, why would you go to a university? If you do have a four year degree, why would you want to work in construction where the environment is so much rougher?
Plus there’s the gender gap…
Too much nuance for a comment on social media. This is already way too long. I see no way to fix the system either given that changes need sponsorship by the ones who benefit from the system today.
Publicly traded companies do not have a duty to pay their workers, they have a duty to pay their shareholders and to maximize profits.
If you can get the same job done overseas for less money why would you pay american labor? what’s the benefit?
Not saying I like the system, just saying that’s how it is. Gotta have some kind of fine or penalty for outsourcing, offshoring and 1099 contracting labor if you really want to fix it.
Shit should be changed but the majority election system is funded by the ownership class who greatly benefits from this not changing.
Hey i’m not here to make friends or anything. I don’t even care of people get angry. The contractors vote for the orange man here even in deep blue Massachusetts.
If you took only the people physically on any major construction site and they were the voting majority, it would be plastered red across the board with an ultra minority of democrat votes (20% or less.)
It’s a construction job. Practically everyone is going to be deep red republican. Guy just needs to say his girlfriend had a miscarriage and they were taking it hard and he’d save grace.
American google SWE wages: https://www.levels.fyi/companies/google/salaries/software-engineer?country=254
Munich SWE wages: https://www.levels.fyi/t/software-engineer/locations/munich-deu
10 * 350k of total comp is 3.5 million dollars… guessing the german counterparts probably get 120k of total comp so only 1.2 million dollars, assuming it’s 1:1 staff swap.
Never heard of american software engineers at FAANG getting anything less than superstar sf bay wages, never heard of crazy wages in all of the EU for any kind of worker… but maybe someone can correct me on the german team’s salaries.
Sounds like e911 or pots lines.
