Universal basic income will never happen under current trend. What will happen is more like oligarchs setting up charities for the commoners: they keep you alive, and in exchange, they can do whatever the hell they want, including abusing kids they’ll force you to have and raise.

Damned! I was about to go to bed and instead I read that thread. Now I won’t have my 8 hours… :(

An outstanding long-term stragegy, but nowadays, even CEOs don’t give a damn about “long term”. They’ll take their tens of millions of $ compensation package and move on to another company, leaving the mess to the next one.

Capitalism at its top efficiency.

Do you doubt this will bring the diesel back from over 6$/gallon to below 4? Have a little faith in the geniuses who rule the US right now!

I don’t know about a name. I will just write it once more as this is yet another example of: “self-regulation is the same as no regulation”.

Maybe, just maybe he’s at risk around other inmates, 'cause you know: even most inmates are people who made mistakes but are not total POS, and they wouldn’t treat him nicely.

The bright side of this is while he’s in the worst cell, he’s occupying that spot, no one else is.

Changing jail conditons for everyone will take time.

Meanwhile, probably better him than anyone else in that prison.

Indeed, my bad! But well, can he really let Musk be the first?

That’s 5k$ to each and every adult. In average. 5k x 270M adults… Maybe it’s going to be 1.35 billions for himself, and jackshit for eveyone else. Or he’ll generously share a bit of it with his family and friends, but still jackshit for the people.

It’s not infighting (oh well, if you want to see that, check any other post from GOS when they talk about privacy and security of other Android distros…). They quite legitimately ask why GOS using AI to detect vulnerabilites has triggered such a shit-storm while every other distro accept LLM generated code and no one seems to care.

Good justification to why GOS is right to use AI to detect vulnerabilities. The only true way to protect yourself from an enemy that has nuke bombs is to have some yourself.

Ukraine gave up its stockpile in exchange of promises from both Russia and NATO that no harm would come to them, and would there be harm from one side, the other side would come and help them. They were betrayed by both sides.

AI is very efficient at finding vulnerabilities. Among a see of false positive, they find real ones. It’s much more efficient and faster than human auditing code. So either it’s GOS using it, finding them and patching them, or it’s… someone else.

A plane has at least a lot of people around. In postal service, one can assume the kid spends quite some time alone with the operator. You just have to trust that random person!

Based on my understanding, the “core” team uses AI to detect vulnerabilities.

They also take codes from paid third party devs, and they say they don’t mind how they wrote the code, but it must be clear and each contributor needs to be able to explain it.

They follow the same rules on code conventions including readability. So basically, it’s less that they accept it than they don’t care as long as it matches their quality expectations. If you can’t tell, you can’t ban…

Now eagerly waiting for a computer to tell them “Go fuck yourself”

Nah. They won’t ban pervglasses. They will regulate so that Meta has to delete local files when they record police, but keep the online version available to police requests only.

That’s the big scam about “energy transition”: it’s miserably failing. Govs put up target in % of energy generation to show fossil fuel numbers going down.

But the goal was never to achieve a ratio. The goal was to actually reduce emissions, eventually down to 0. They keep increasing. We’ve barely slowed down the yearly growth.

Every year, we get farther and farther from the hope of keeping Earth survivable for humans.

“These are not the crimes we’re looking for”, probably. Though they will certainly add 5 or 6 cameras in the neighborhood, the need is obvious.

Were these people working from a remote cave or island for the past year and half?

It’s not like Apple playing friend with Trump started yesterday! Apple has been openly pro-Trump since day 1!

Vaultwarden can probably keep going without BW. The main issue is maintaining the clients.

Free tuition, healthcare, a paid job. When you’re trying to get yourself out of misery, you don’t always have many options.
