When the AI or data center bubble pops, the land will go to banks and developers and they will abuse the land, ruin it. And the current owners know that if they sell, it dooms the whole community and everyone they know and destroys their lifestyle and their family's lifestyle. Only folks that don't understand what life and family are about can put a price on that.

Indeed, the economy referenced up there needs immigration -- constantly.

The problem we aren't talking about is how these mega corps formed--consolidation. That boost in efficiency from vertical integration and effectively no competition means there's a larger number of have-nots and less need of labor. But the robots aren't ready to roof my house or fix my plumbing, but fewer and fewer do that work and fewer can afford to pay for it. Need to break up the big players as they are stifling everything and wield too much power economically and politically.

The pressure changes aren't rough on them. They've been in submarines, planes, etc... but what about charging in a rad env? What if there's a SEU in the charge CKT that causes it to continue the charge past 100% and then a fire? What if it discharges too deep and catches fire after a SEU? It is easy to mitigate that risk in terrestrial envs... Not so much around the moon.

This is a comically bad decision. These consumer devices are not rad hard and one battery malfunction kills everyone or scrubs the mission. Take selfies with the Nikon.

This won't hold as long as the attys keep getting paid. Not news

sweet summer child. When everything requires a phone-home to print, you will have to buy the subscription....

Hopefully siri+ won't be as opinionated, condescending, patronizing, snarky, and mouthy as Alexa+ was before I rolled back to the regular flavor.

Bifocals already do that far focus up and out with near focus for the dash. They are effective. While this appears to be a single focus product--i could easily envision (lol) a future variant with a driving mode and maybe other fixed focus modes like max-near for PWB/precision work or a mid-focus for computer screen uses. Right now I have separate glasses for each, but this would be a novel product, however the cost would be massive compared to contacts+readers-of-different-capabilities.

The robber-barons were actually a great good as folks were so busy buying food they didn't notice how unhappy they were. Also, they didn't go to doctors (couldn't afford it) so weren't in the studies.

Just use the AI to swap middleware, or to help optimize it. The thing is, once optimized, you not only need less memory/compute, you also need less AI later. A useful tool removes the need for it in the long run. Anything else is just someone selling something.

This makes sense for certain types of engineers. However, if you are are a crank-turning-code-monkey... it is a different story. However, with AI, a mediocre engineer can be more reliable and achieve more--freeing up superstars for the hard problems and providing positive feedback that those medium folks would have not gotten. Glad they are making it work. now, stop running stop signs and trying to mow down children at bus-stops.

It is the way.

Zoneminder works with a lot of the inexpensive bullet cams (wires or no). It is pretty easy to make a cd for LEO if you need to press charges/provide evidence too.

Yeah, they do have anxiety issues. The school will also provide doctors for the diagnosis. Maybe my sample is small, but the schools I've seen are all that way.... And yeah, sheltered Betty/Bob are going to have a rougher time because they had helicopter parents and can't wipe their own noses. I'm not competing with them in the workforce so let them pay tuition to help fund others.
