Really confused as to what exactly you want here. You don’t even have to read the article, just the subheading, to see that they are saying the city should build more bike infrastructure.

City has failed to build infrastructure that could reduce threat

Ideally, any number of deaths is too many and they are looking to reduce that number by suggesting things to increase safety for people who ride them. That’s a double win. Less biker deaths is good on its own, but also makes bikes safer so more people are inclined to use them. If there’s something the city can do to prevent these deaths, isn’t it appropriate to be upset and demand action? They’re demanding the city build charging stations or battery swaps. That’s basically a subsidy for these bikes.

Someone with a better memory or search engine capability can weigh in, but I’m pretty sure T-Mobile had a bunch of restrictions lifted for no reason that were imposed on them because they were illegally charging customers who switched plans or something.

Edit: this was bothering me so I did some more digging. Verizon was the company I was thinking of, but I confused it with TMobile because the FCC waived restrictions on their merger with sprint and there were a bunch of antitrust lawsuits about that.

The keyboard and speech to text are getting notably worse and have been for years. I’ve been somewhat of an Apple defender over the years, but you are not imagining it. I’ve used androids and iPhones to compare them for accessibility purposes and the iPhone used to be significantly better. I keep my tech for as long as possible, but I’ve on more than one occasion thought about jumping ship just because the worsening text capabilities sometimes makes my phone unusable for basic communication purposes.

If I remember correctly he had all his kids via IVF and selected for XY only.

Those are both such undeniably terrible options. Either way it’s teaching students to offload onto AI immediately.

There are no words for how insidious this is. They’re trying to ruin the minds of an entire generation. Not just knowingly, but forcefully.

What do you mean by “if a school doesn’t ban AI that does not mean they’re forced to use it”? That’s not an argument anyone is making. People are saying the turning off search capabilities just because the school opted out of AI is petty. That’s exactly what they’re doing and here’s a quote from the article saying that:

“Search and A.I. are deeply integrated,” said Chris Phillips, vice president for education at Google. If a school has banned A.I., he added, students “will not have access to search, and they’ll see a message from their school that indicates it’s not available.”

I hope schools keep the AI off and switch to a different search engine.

My verbiage may differ slightly from yours, but I believe we agree. “Intention, craft” would indicate something similar to ingenuity to me. Obviously, totally OK for you to disagree, or think I did not explain appropriately, but my point was that we are not just beasts of burden, we can think and analyze and have opinions therefore allowing us to do things with “Intention” and to not just create things but to “craft” them.

I get the reference, but that’s not really related to what I said. I don’t want to just ignore your comment if it’s a serious point, but at no point did I suggest otherwise.

I think the distinction is what we consider “the work of a man”. I don’t consider man’s work to be just physical labor. A lot of things can do that. I think the true work of humanity is to use our ingenuity and critical thinking to do more. I’m not saying physical labor is not important, but there are several jobs that require physical labor and take thought and troubleshooting. I don’t need a human being to screw in the same screw on an assembly line a hundred times a day, but a human being may be needed to determine why that screw ends up being a failure point in the final product.

There is of course lots to be said about the value of a hard days work and the toil and effort of physical labor, but I think we are all capable of so much more. It need not just be that.

Thank you! Greatly appreciated!

People pay a $100 fee to list their game on steam. For most slop games the will probably cover storing them for the rest of time at the scale valve has. I don’t think that’ll have much impact.

Individually, or is there a blocking feature I’m unaware of?

That has happened in the US for at least about a century and people still consider our presidents democratically elected.

I was admittedly being hyperbolic. Here’s me saying the same thing not too long ago: https://reddthat.com/comment/29539867

It would also be a crime because you’re essentially killing them. Being dropped randomly into international waters with no preparation would probably be a bigger concern for them than if their passport is still valid. There are definitely a lot of solutions we haven’t tried between our current nothing and state sanctioned murder, I just wish we’d actually implement one.

I think tax avoidance schemes like that should result in basically exile. You don’t want to pay your fair share to participate in society? Ok, enjoy no society. Not even jail. Just drop them in international waters. Sorry, food requires roads to be able to transport and those use taxes, so since you don’t want to pay your share of taxes you don’t get the privilege of anything they supply. Just the one free transport and confiscation of everything else since you don’t exist as a person in society.

That’s probably a little harsh, but I am just over theses people. What ever happened with the Panama papers? Oh, that’s right, nothing. They are ruining society for everyone else and there is just no recourse.

I actually agree with you about AI, but I’m sure if you asked the average person to come up with a short story multiple times you would also see a pattern in names and themes. They’re probably going with names in their own language, or if they read fantasy and are influenced by that they may use names that seem stereotypically fantasy oriented. I don’t think AI is conscious, but just because something has tendencies doesn’t mean it’s not creative or conscious.

I buy handicrafts as gifts quite a lot. As someone who does handicrafts I have a deep appreciation for the artists/artisans who work on those. As you guessed I also regularly buy/gift video games and almost exclusively indie titles. I also regularly rent books from the library and probably buy one every month or two to have to loan out or as a gift. I have commissioned two original pieces from traditional artists but have received neither. One I did get an (incomplete) refund for. I imagine my experience isn’t the norm, though I’m sure I’m not alone.

The fact that they act like being vocally against AI isn’t helping their cause is idiotic. Even if I had done none of the above, the sentiment that AI art “doesn’t count” will definitely discourage people who are interested in flaunting their acquired art from viewing AI art as a suitable replacement.

What exactly are you looking for on FB marketplace that’s worth the time and effort of setting up and running agents to monitor it? Why do you need multiple accounts?

I think a lot of these companies let go of team leads and just decided they could do without. They had the biggest salaries and likely no respect from the higher ups. In my experience with big projects this position is extremely important because it keeps the team on task and they are able to coordinate with other team leads. If you just have a handful of junior employees, they may be doing work, but it’s not actually moving the project forward. Often time these leads are still doing code review or even writing code (or the equivalent work product in their division), so it’s not like they’re just in meetings all day. They actually know and do the work, but they’re able to keep the group organized. I’m guessing those are the positions they’re rehiring.

The hyperlinked article in that section goes into a little more detail, but I’m guessing based off what I’ve been hearing from the industry.
