Try telling someone how they are wrong rather than simply stating it is wrong.

Currently I know that a single person out of 8 billion disagrees withme.

That happens if I just say the Earth is a sphere, not flat.

No. Trump was overleveraged and the last bank that would do business with him was Deutsche Bank until he made whatever deal they made with the Russians... Pedo Jr. and Eric both told us they were banking with Russia.

I doubt this very, very heavily. If it were so they would have told us so already as their excuse. These days the typical radio antenna is an amplified module mounted to the roof, this is now cheap and it gives better reception without the sticking-up aerial or with just a short one.

Humans use multiple methods of thought.
Faith: (Appeal to Authority)
Science: (Scientific Method)
Formal Logic (If x then y)
Bias: (Appeal to previous examples)

While AI is built on Formal Logic, it does not use it. Instead it uses Bias entirely. It has no faith and does not understand or use the scientific method.

Can a person apply a license to code they don't have the copyright to? The answer is no. This code is either infected with a mishmash of copyright from its original sources, or it's not copyrightable at all, and courts haven't decided which but they are both bad.

It has basically functional mass transit, but last time I lived there my commute was 15 minutes by car or 1 hour and 15 minutes by two buses linked by subway. I could probably have walked faster. Now I would dread parking in either neighborhood but then it was feasible.

This is an incredibly short sighted argument for someone calling someone else short sighted. Someone might need updates while evacuating, and their car's radio will have better reception than the portable they are using inside of the car. AM radios work OK inside of cars, but still not as well as a car stereo using the external antenna. It's easier to use and hear while driving. It's a small addition to the cost. Yes, people should have a portable radio for emergencies. Having the car stereo pick up the AM broadcasts is still also useful in emergencies.

It really shouldn't and if it does it suggests that something has gone horribly wrong. The Python language itself shouldn't care about what language the interpreter (or whatever else is going on under the hood) was written in.

In a real emergency, it is usually worthless, unless maybe it has an FM radio receiver. FM isn't worthless in an incident, it's just not as useful as AM.

AM is good for sending out information during a disaster which includes power outage, when the cellular network will crater whether it's affected by the outages or not. And it will be, because some sites' generators won't work, or they don't have much fuel to begin with. Everyone can have solar and hand crank generators for their phones and still have them be worthless.

Classic Slopdot, I got modded down for my comment while he's using Claude to "write" the code.

It's more of an indictment against the studios being unable to make new films that audiences are interested in than anything else. I won't got as far as saying they're completely devoid of creativity as I've still been able to find plenty of good films over the past five years, but at the same time I think that if the LotR trilogy were given a rerelease it would outperform a lot of the current films. The industry still hasn't recovered from COVID.

The real reason is that the city recalled their previous DA a few years ago because his progressive policies proved even too ridiculous even for extremely liberal San Francisco. The current DA is actually prosecuting criminals and more importantly charging some of the minors who were responsible for a lot of this crime (because they'd immediately be let out and just go right back to it) as adults which has made a big difference as well.

The feds cracking down on illegal immigration May had some effect as well. A lot of the crime in SF is criminal gangs with ties to other countries. Again this is largely a manner of targeting and removing the criminal element responsible for the majority of the crime. There are probably some other reasons beyond these as well, but those two are probably the main drivers.

There are arguments to be made for something like this, but we really should do away with most of the AM spectrum for radio and repurpose it. Radio is a lot less important than it used to be and the entire AM spectrum isn't necessary for an emergency notification system. Arguably a satellite system could replace it now or in the near future.

Odd to hear this take coming from you. Out of curiosity do you feel the same about other mandatory things included for safety purposes that also add to the cost of the vehicle? Normally you're quite keen on arguing for the government to force people to buy something you consider to be for their own good or to even go further and suggest the government deliver that thing itself. Not that I expect this to change your entire worldview, but the next time you want to go off about someone who'd prefer the government not to force decisions they don't want on them, you remember this.
