If the cops receive an anonymous tip that CowboyNeal is an insensitive clod, and then decide to arrest him without checking out any of the evidence, I blame the cops. There's plenty to bitch about with Flock but "the cops don't care about doing their job" isn't one of them. That's a cop problem.
Don't treat any stupid robots as somehow "better" than an anonymous tip called in from a payphone. It's just, like, something's opinion, man.
12PM is fucking noon is when the fucking sun is at its highest position in the sky.
It has been like this for at least a millennia. DST is bullshit.
Live with nature and quit fucking denying it like a conservative.
We now live in a fully connected world where most users are connected through web browsers and are the intended victims.
This particular story is an exception to that. Remote software, accessed through a web browser, normally does not have read/write access to your local filesystem. But people are granting local filesystem access to proprietary AI services.
I think that granting such access is
But GP's comment is about whose decision that is. If you use Linux, then it's your decision. If you use iOS, then it's Apple's decision. And MacOS is becoming less Linuxy and more iOSy every year. I think it makes plenty of sense for stories like this to result in people dumping MacOS for Linux. (But daaamn, their values surprise me. You wanna make your computer less secure instead of more? Oh well, like Rumsfeld said, freedom is untidy!)
That's one part of the equation! Satellite bus cost is another part of the 'magnitudes of order' reduction equation. Where I work right now is addressing that.
No, if the state were renamed, it would be to Old America. NM might not be the true original, but if you look at it through the eyes of European colonization and continuous governance, then New Mexico has the best claim of the fifty. (Though if you take a less racist view, then I guess Alaska had the real OGs.)
Randi McGinn, a lawyer for New Mexico, said applying the full $5,000 penalty to the number of violations would create too large of a penalty under the US Constitution's protections on due process.
I ass/u/me this refers to the Eighth Amendment, but I don't remember seeing any monetary constants encoded within that text.
Google's telling me Meta is worth about $1.8 trillion so how would a mere $40B be "excessive?" It's only about 2% of their worth! Civil penalties in excess of 2% of someone's worth are routinely accepted as constitutional, aren't they? If this case were about me driving drunk and killing a whole family, I bet no one would flinch at the 8A implications of taking 2% (!?!) of my assets, and everyone would laugh at my lawyer if he brought up 8A for such an insignificant fine.
I understand why we have 8A, and everyone deserves mercy, but I don't see why Meta deserves exceptional mercy as a singular special case that we would be horrified to see applied anywhere else. Bringing up 8A for such a tiny fine would be giving Meta a very unique carve-out that we normally would not apply.
It may be that $5k is too much to charge criminals per act, in that each crime didn't really cause that much loss, but bringing up due process concerns seems like bullshit when the fine is already so small. NM and Meta had been trying to negotiate the cost of illegal business for years before negotiations failed and it went to trial. Meta decided to let a jury decide, and the jury's come up with a fairly tiny fraction of their assets.
If Meta thinks the price of illegal business is still too high, then they can lower the number of willful violations they commit per year, to optimize the advantage they gain from illegal actions at an affordable rate.
Geez, Zuck, just do less of it. If $40B seems like a lot, then maybe try only $10B worth of crime next time. What's the big deal? Live and learn. After this little fine you still have 98% of the company left to go on and incur the next wave of liabilities.
Uhh, console makers already do hardware lockdown and game companies work with that and even include their own sorts of shenanigans. Have for at least 20 years, now.
What rock are you living under?
You have a medium memoruy. I remember how USENET was, prior to the web forums you complain about. Reddit has blocked the possibility of a real discussion forum that works for complicated topics, locking in a short term popularity contest with ever-shifting "hot topics".
burn down institutions that actually work; they are too stupid to understand how they work.
Khrushchev would love that our government is full of people who disagree with the principle of Chesterton's Fence. It's appalling that "conservatives" have become so far to the left of "The Left."
Vote conservative: vote Democrat.
What's next? If we accept this, then the next thing will be that public officials won't be allowed to sell Amway/Herbalife, heroin, or fake patents? This is viciously partisan, clearly intended to keep a certain major political party from running for office.
California Penal Code 399: If an owner knows their animal is dangerous or mischievous, fails to keep it under control, and it kills a person, the owner commits a felony. If only serious injury occurs, it is a wobbler (depends on extent of injury as to whether misdemeanor or felony charges get pressed.)
No state completely lacks a legal mechanism to penalize or hold owners civilly or criminally negligent in this case, and most states explicitly have criminal statues covering this.
Are you just being willfully obtuse or what?
hackernews (when it isn't loaded with fucktons of AI stories)
Using a GPU versus a CPU (as was done here) increases how quickly you can churn through those remaining possible permutations (I read the actual paper.)
What was done on an academic CPU cluster could probably be just as easily performed on a well-tuned bitcoin rig at far far faster speed.
People who go to conferences are the ones who shouldn't.
