That’s not much of a justification though. The existence of another community does not negate the validity of content in this community. After all cross-posting is a thing

Think of an awful lot of features but they’re all developer facing.

He wouldn’t survive in the Victorian era though. In the Victorian era there were certain things expected of a gentleman and part of that was being at least corneal to the lower classes, and in some cases actually philanthropic towards them. There’s no way in hell he could pull that off.

He’s just as thick and uncouth as Anderson, except he covers that up with a veneer of class.

A few years ago I made them write into my contract that I was permanently work from home which they happily did because at the time everyone was permanently worked from home anyway.

However everyone else has to erroneously go in 2 days a week. If you can do your job remotely 3 days a week you can do it remotely 5 days a week. Going in is utterly redundant. The pathetic justification provided is that communication is easier in person. However I find that my the lazy co-workers are just as useless in the office, And the good ones are just as good, so I’m not sure that’s true.

I don’t think it’s going to get much more broadly used than it is now. I work in cyber security and there have been password hacks like this since practically the beginning of the internet. It’s called a rainbow table attack, It mostly relies on the victims being complete idiots.

You don’t even need to have a particularly secure password to be safe from it, you just have to have a unique one from site to site. Even if in other respects it’s relatively weak it will still defeat a rainbow table attack.

The point is this stuff has been going on for decades and people are still making basic fundamental errors, so I can’t see how that’s going to change in the future. Maybe we should require everyone to take some sort of basic proficiency test before they’re allowed online.

I guess but if a shadowy company wanted my DNA they could get it easily enough even if I don’t hand it over to them so I’m not sure how much point there is in being protective of it. Anyway what are they going to do with it, that a medical company couldn’t do?

The government already has my blood from back when they were doing medical testing, so it’s all a bit of a moot point anyway. Also an insurance companies took some blood and they did an MRI scan so they have my brain as well. Jokes on them if they choose to clone me, I’m bloody useless.

Actually hallucinations have gone down as AI training has increased. Mostly through things like prompting them to provide evidence. When you prompt them to provide evidence they don’t hallucinate in the first place.

The problem is really to do with the way the older AIs were originally trained. They were basically trained on data where a question was asked, and then a response was given. Nowhere in the data set was there a question that was asked, and the answer was “I’m sorry I do not know”, so the AI basically was unintentionally taught that it is never acceptable to not answer a question. More modern AI have been trained in a better way and have been told it is acceptable not to answer a question. Combined with the fact that they now have the ability to perform internet searches, so like a human they can go look up data if they recognize that they don’t have access to it in their current data set.

That being said, Google’s AI is an idiot.

No you did say that.

Everyone anywhere using one on the job should be fired

You said anyone using an AI in any capacity should be fired. I have heard infinitely better takes from 4-year-olds and why they need more ice cream.

If you read the article that’s not what’s happening here.

Doctors are just using AI like they use any tool. To inform their decision.

Yeah we should old use the corporate system which is brilliant. As long as you’re rich, easy solution, just be rich and you’re fine.

Thank you for your unhelpful and ignorant comment

You were probably already at risk then of a misstep. Don’t have time to think about the output then they probably didn’t have time before AI came along, so the AI isn’t really adding to the issue here.

The headline and the article are completely mismatched.

Basically all the article is saying is that doctors sometimes use AI. Which is a bit like saying sometimes doctors look things up in books. Yeah, course they do.

If somebody comes in with a sore throat and the AI prescribes morphine the doctor is probably smart enough to not do that so I don’t really think there’s a major issue here. They are skilled medical professionals they’re not blindly following the AI.

Nice try. I’m not on that website it’ll probably explode.

That’s what they have now exploding websites. I think it’s a CSS attribute.

Yeah this is what I’m confused about. In a lot of simpler devices like this the BMS is actually a daughter board and has no physical connectivity to the main circuits at all. And even if it had access you generally do not have the capacity to rewrite its code, because again code updating is not something that was ever expected.

Getting batteries to release energy isn’t very difficult, even getting them to release it quickly isn’t very difficult. What’s difficult is getting them to release it over the course of a few milliseconds. Which is what you would need for an explosion.

If the battery simply dumped all its power over the course of 30 seconds that’s basically just a fire that you can run away from.

Also I wouldn’t have thought a pager had that much charge, I wouldn’t have thought this sort of thing would be possible as they would tend to just go off with a loud bang, assuming you could even get them to release all the energy at once l, which again I wouldn’t have thought was possible.

For fairly obvious reasons I don’t think we’re ever going to find out how this was done.

I was thinking of thanos but yeah

They weren’t way too many people on the planet there’s way too much holding resources, you monumental pillock

You can just quotes the sections that are relevant. That is what everyone else does.

Every time you do stuff like this it always gives me a headache trying to follow what you’re trying to say, It always looks like you’re cutting words out of newspapers in order to form a ransom note.

So what they should have said is to make the image negative.

That’s being a standard image editing function since the days of film but you have to use the correct terminology.

If he’s ill and that’s why he’s working from home and this is not a usual thing then he’s not going to have a KVM is he
