Kobolds with a keyboard.
Not to mention, some companies right now are abusing interview candidates to get free work with “trial project” type assignments, or “How would you fix this problem, if you were hired?” type of free consultations. If some candidates abused the companies in return, I’d call that fair play.
If only they had voted for the candidates who wanted a strong social safety net, rather than the ones that wanted to fuck everyone who isn’t part of the 0.1%, maybe they wouldn’t have to worry now…
I mean, if he actually did it, he should absolutely be investigated and appropriate action taken, but like… this is ridiculous, right? It’s not just me?
Right, that’s what the canals are useful for, what did you think they meant?
Perhaps it is not the entire world who is stupid while you’re one of a select few intelligent enough to really know what’s going on.
I’m not sure where you got the impression that that was at all what I was saying, but just to restate, the complaint was that the above points never even make it into the conversation when this comes up. The discourse is always ‘Robots are taking away our jobs’, and it completely misses the ‘…and that would be okay if we took steps to ensure everyone’s prosperity’ followup.
I’m not saying we should stop opposing this stuff because an alternative exists where it’s okay, I’m saying that we should be actively talking about that alternative every time this comes up, because the vast majority of people [in the US] are not used to even hearing it.
I agree with you, I just hate that it rarely ever even makes it into the conversation. “We need to regulate this new technology until we pass this other legislation that we are actively working towards which I will now outline” would be far more productive than just “This is bad and we need to ban it.”
The reasons related to them occupying sidewalks and whatnot are totally reasonable, but I really hate when something like this is opposed because it will take jobs from delivery drivers. That’s such a backwards way of thinking. “Humans need to work because working is how we make money and we need money to live” Sure, but like… what if we didn’t need money to live? What if the increased ‘free’ labor that things like this provide was just… shared equitably among everyone in the community? What if we had UBI so people didn’t need to work gig economy jobs that could be done by robots?
But no, that’s crazy talk. The orphan crushing machine must keep running at all costs.
Imagine you’re the leader of a country. You’ve got beef with the leader of another country.
You can resolve your beef by sending thousands or tens of thousands of plebs to die, while remaining safe yourself, or you can normalize directly targeting each other with assassins.
In the first case, you sit safely on your throne sipping wine while the conflict resolves itself. In the latter case, you’re constantly looking over your shoulder, wondering who’s going to come for you next.
The worst part of this is that even if he is convicted and removed from the judiciary, Trump gets to pick his replacement, so it will not only not fix anything but will very likely make it worse.
This is pretty fucked up. In my personal opinion, people who abuse animals are as bad as if not worse than people who harm humans. It’s purely malicious sociopathy; there’s no excuse for it or mitigating factors. Animal abusers deserve to get drug out into the streets and beaten to death.
Taped as in, to record something on VHS. If there was a show on broadcast TV and you want to watch it later, you “taped” it.
It could also, however, be legitimate evidence that proves guilt, but that was obtained through illegal means and therefore is inadmissible in court.
It’s saying Copilot was the first on the scene and had access to literally all of the training data anyone could possibly want, and is still being shown up by most other AI models. Their failure to capture the vibe coding space is a legendary fumble. At least that was my read.
Username checks out! I trust you as an authority on this subject!
I’ve seen 3 articles posted about this, and the fact that the monkey’s name is Punch has made all 3 headlines very unnecessarily difficult to parse.
That is fun sounding; too bad it’s VR + mobile and not… a more reasonable set of environments!
You know, I would totally play an extraction game where you play as a squirrel gathering nuts and things.
It’s not like stealing, it is stealing.
Because gamers have a finite amount of time and money? New releases are literally competing for both of those.
