Already going to happen because of RAM prices.

For a long time it was just a software implementation of OpenGL. It’s grown into a completely different beast.

Talk about feature creep!

They need to stop being an authoritarian and economically right party. People voted for change, and have not gotten what they voted for.

I think there’s a lot of assumptions going into current polling. Labour is disenfranchising a lot of people, but a large number are becoming true “don’t knows” and taking themselves out of polling calculations.

These are the the left of the party who are politically homeless. The greens are mopping up some of them, but Polanski is a divisive character. Some love him, and some find him superficial. Some might land in the Lib Dems as their social policies are left of labour, but there’s a lot that would never even consider that. Corbyn was trying to set up a party for them, but that’s never going anywhere.

One thing is for sure, this block is not voting for Farage. He’s diametrically opposite to what these people believe in.

The political bias of AI will be set by those tuning the models. Now mix in a bunch of voters asking LLMs who they should vote for, because people will outsource their thinking any chance they get. The result is model owners being able to sway elections with very little effort.

Manatees aren’t the only ones.

The encryption of streaming media is annoying, but it’s not what I fear. The ability to lock the software that I run on my hardware to “approved vendors” only is what worries me, and it’s what TPM promises. A security model where the only trusted party isn’t even the person owning the hardware.

This is what some call “mindfulness”. The ability to be aware of feeling an emotion, and then to be able to step outside of that and ask “why am I feeling that?”. You can then start to work on the cause rather than the symptoms.

If you ever get taught meditation, a lot of it is about letting the mind go in the direction it wants to go, catching it, noting it, and then resetting. Lather, rinse, repeat.

You just did it when you were writing an essay.

No. The board can decide to issue more shares, but this is a sub-dividing of the already issued shares and so normally requires a vote from the shareholders. Major shareholders normally sit on the board, so the two groups overlap but are legally distinct.

If a company buys it own shares, it’s normally a “buyback” and the shares cease to exist.

Of course. They are shareholders.

The company is a separate legal entity though.

The company doesn’t care if the stock price hits $1. If the company is paying it’s bills, it just continues. It’s the people who hold shares that care. The company doesn’t hold shares in itself.

Enron collapsed because the company financials collapsed, not because the stock price collapsed. That happened after all the bad accounting practises and hidden debt came to light. Now, in that case the shareholders succeeded in suing for their losses, but they only had a case because of the mismanagement.

This is what you get when AI fanaticism combines with Rust fanaticism.

1 million lines a month is 2-ish line per second. That “engineer” is just someone to blame when things don’t work. They aren’t going to be contributing anything.

A little bit of “Oopsie! Did I fail to destroy the evidence of your crimes correctly? So sorry.” going on I think.

Signal groups?.. Oh! That’s why people wanted usernames.

No. Signal is for people I know.

…but not the 👌gesture. In some cultures that’s very rude.

Mexico is a long way from Europe and the food hasn’t travelled well.

Ah the bubble is the expansion volume. Not the storage volume… got it. I had it backwards.

So yes, very similar then.

We had these things called Gasometers in the UK for a long time. They expanded with the amount of gas stored in them, and they kept the pressure of the local gas supply up. A local gas reservoir, or “gas battery” if you like.

These bubbles are basically the same idea but at higher pressure.

Never let her watch Star Wars.

Landlords would love it, at least.

And I thought you ment because the pubs would be full that week :-(
