In conducting his affair he was breaking the lockdown rules that he had written, which harmed their credibility. The antivax crowd (I am not a member) quite reasonably extrapolated that if the architect of lockdown was not locking himself down then he wasn't too worried about the virus, ergo vaccines were being oversold. When you are a public figure like that then the personal is political.

We already have a machine that can do CPR very well. What we don't yet have is a robot that can enter an unfamiliar environment and safely extract a patient who may have other injuries or be entrapped.

No jurisdiction but their operatives have global reach. For most people the more practical risk for any rented ai is IP theft.

I once cracked a pretty good joke on a high-traffic thread and got about 30k upvotes for that one post. None of my serious posts in serious subreddits ever got close. I don't think Reddit karma is a useful indicator of anything.

'a lot' depends on how much you had to begin with.

Please, nobody click on the link to this hn item within hn.watch as it would be even more dangerous than typing 'google' into Google

In the UK, Trading Standards is done at local authority level. There is no funding scenario where your local council is going to be able to go toe-to-toe with big tech.

Having a birds eye view changes the dynamic of an in person event because you can more easily observe who makes a beeline for who. But as someone who gets a headache from first person games I still prefer birds eye anyway.

Looks like the criteria were 1. No cost to the government/taxpayer. 2. Minimal work for the civil service.

This seems tenuous. The LLM is not being exploited.

Not obvious to everyone.

I suspect the person you replied to only happened to see that from physics grads. I have seen it in all sorts of people and I sometimes did it myself when I was young (I am not a physics grad).

Popular opinion can just be at local scale. Hence Tom Lehrer's joke

"It takes a certain amount of courage to get up in a coffee house or a college auditorium and come out in favour of the things everyone else in the room is against like peace and justice and brotherhood and so on"

I used to work for a firm that did custom homes for wealthy clients. Even when we paired them up with designers some of them just preferred a very plain appearance.

That said, I thought the games room with rows of hide-away PCs looked like a call centre or at best a 90s internet cafe.

People choose not to because they see no need to, but if they put some time, effort and not a lot of money then those barriers are not so high. I took the trouble to get a driving license because I saw value in that. I also took the trouble to learn to set up my own stuff on a VPS because I saw value in that too.

I thought it was an allusion to trams.

This is still ER - clinicians using AI tools. The MH triage flow is patient interacts with an AI by typing or speaking. It could work - maybe the systems in the article are just not very well set-up.

I mostly agree, except in some circumstances good triage can imply angry patients (assuming demand will exceed supply sometimes) : Lots of people present inappropriately at ER and then complain that they have to wait a long time.

I used the web based installer and it was so easy that we would be complaining the kids are not really learning anything by doing it!

Why do they rearrange the logos anyway? Surely it isn't hard to scan a real one.

If you read the article you would know it is literally about Americans who walk to work in the snow because they can't afford gas.

If bad software still generates revenue, that's the value. I'm speaking as someone who has used awful software that some ignorant boss bought for our organisation.

Lexx.

Some percentage of engineering is actually people and politics. The more power (or alternative options) you have, the more you can speak your mind. But if you need the job then argue your case just to the boss, discreetly.

I would be astonished to see this outcome. It is costly and highly subjective.

In the words of Tom Lehrer

"I've got a hobby

Re-reading Lady Chatterley"

Not all damage is fatal

it says a large healthcare org but does not say if that's a care provider where on-site jobs will be completely different from remote-compatible ones, or an insurer where most jobs could be done mostly on a PC.

Item 2 seems like a circular argument. If your wages did keep pace with inflation then of course subjectively there is no inflation. On the other hand this does not hold in all situations. In galloping inflation you might as well spend because savings get eroded.

Britain has a few structural issues too, so someone who happens to live in a big city, especially London, will have more opportunities without having to move.
