How do you make 3 equal charges by splitting a charge in such a manner?

Which isn’t surprising at all if you turn off your adblocker and look at how these AI chat products are marketed to the general public. They’re presented as all-knowing oracles that can deliver exactly what you want with only the vaguest and briefest of prompts.

You know that. Most people don’t.

Those are pretty good in their own right, but they really aren’t much like meat in my opinion. They’re similar, but they are quite obviously not meat within the first few bites.

And that is well into anti-social, intentional criminality territory, so you can have harsh punishment for those crimes and investigate and make examples of people if it remains a problem.

Yep. I haven’t seen an actual MD in quite some time. Instead my general care provider is a Nurse Practitioner and he’s been handling all my routine healthcare needs.

That’s a good way of putting it. CLI skills are specialized skills that I’m not going to use for anything else, whereas using a desktop environment is re-using skills I already have for other purposes.

Even when I do write code, I spend more time thinking about the code than actually writing so losing time to using my mouse doesn’t matter.

Or I could use a desktop on expend my limited mental energy on things more relevant to me. It’s far easier for me to remember things in a visual or spatial manner.

> it seems to effectively make it illegal to fly drones anywhere near a road

That was the point. It was always intentional that it was effectively impossible to comply with. You can’t know if you’re violating it, but if you do, you’ll be in deep shit.

It doesn’t matter if it’s wrong or illegal if they know nothing will happen to them. The rule of law is dying because it’s becoming only selectively enforced.

If your UI is created for humans to use, you should still have humans involved in testing it.

Or, of course, WWW (world-wide web) where each word of the acronym is itself a single syllable. This means the acronym is 6 syllables longer if you were speaking it.

Absent any context, “the nice evening” sounds strange because no one really expects there to be only one nice evening.

However it can makes sense if the surrounding context supports the idea of only one nice evening.

Grammar rules are generally about the surrounding context which allow us to leave out superfluous or repeated information and still be understood. Things sound strange when that missing information can’t be deduced from context.

The dentist, the supermarket, the park, etc.

Because you are referring to a specific one of each, even if a listener doesn’t necessarily know which specific one, they know that you know.

In the case of your example the listener assumes you mean whichever specific dentist you are currently seeing. That fact that you may choose one randomly each time is an exception.

The status of the true author is kind of irrelevant to whether it’s plagiarism or not. The true author may even be an active participant in the conspiracy.

That’s fair, I should have clarified that I was thinking about the solo authors when I wrote that.

It strikes me as akin to plagiarism. If the purported author can’t even answer basic questions about the paper, how can they plausibly claim to have written it?

In the case where someone uses AI to write the paper and then deeply familiarizes themself with it, it may go undetected, but then it’s also presumably less of an issue since they have actually read it carefully and closely. If it’s still bad or wrong after that, then it’s not that different from a human writing a bad or wrong paper on their own and should be treated similarly.

Writing and reading existed before the Ancient Greeks, including China and Mesoamerica.

Graphic design skills don’t correlate with effort. I’ve seen terribly designed posters that the makers clearly put a lot of effort and love into because they loved whatever it was they were promoting.

That’s not a biological change.

That would imply a biological change in all humans in the last ~3000 years after humans had already dispersed across the entire globe?

That means whatever the change was would have to had occur simultaneously in separate populations all over the world within almost no time at all.

The subjective experience doesn’t really matter because many places in the US will experience a 100 degree F range over an entire year. So it’s not the “comfortable range” but the actual range you’ll get in many parts of the US (whether you like it or not).

I quite like Fahrenheit. The 0 to 100F (-17 to 37C) range perfectly encapsulates the range of outdoor temperatures I expect to encounter during the year. If the forecast is outside that range, it’s going to be miserable.

Well it’s definitely not 97 K, it’s definitely not 97 C, so it’s probably 97 F which would put it in the same general ballpark as nearly all terrestrial vertebrates.

I’m closer to Annapolis annd Ft. Meade and we have two huge self-storage facilities that just opened up within a month less than a mile from each other.

There’s lots of military folks around here so maybe people are more likely around here to store stuff for a few years if they get deployed somewhere else and plan to move the family back after? I dunno.

I’ve used self-storage twice in my life: once in college over the summer before moving into a new apartment the next school year and once when we had our first child about a year before moving to a new city and larger house, which let us make room for baby stuff while keeping things we’d use when we had more space.

The cool thing about open source is anyone can fork it and spend their own money asking AI to make a fix.

“Forever” is a long time. That’s quite the claim.

If you’re in the midst of some kind of crisis, whether physical or mental, it’s somewhere safe you can go that’s available 24/7.

From there they can keep you safe until you’re stabilized (physically or mentally) and then refer you to specialists or hospitalize you.

But how was the 9 year old able to do any of this unless they had access to some account?

It says his son also used it, so he gave a 9 year old access to it. Same difference.

There are so many things wrong with this story before you even get to the headline.

From the information in the article, I can’t really blame Google for this one. This was a series of deliberate blunders on the part of the father. The first blunder was letting a 9 year old have a YouTube account.

Putting aside whether a 9 year old should be making videos, the father should have been the one with the account and managing the channel.
