What is the reason fir this law, what problem does it try to solve. It's not clear to me what age gas to do with using an operating system.

They should also require background checks for gun safes.

All the text books I've ever seen had practical examples in them. Like determining the height of a tree or a house simply based on trigonometry.

Your suggestion is interesting but I am not convinced that a student would be helped by aligning the examples with their interests. I could see a student asking how trig relates to computer games and the example the LLM generates becoming much more involved.

I see no problem with the examples being boring. The people that developed these techniques had such fundamental problems to solve and the wonder to me is the human mind that came up with these methods.

All this to say, maybe we lack appreciation for the fundamental sciences that underpin every aspect of our modern lives.

Survival of the fittest should apply to businesses above anything. If a business can't handle the regulations to not pollute water then it's a clear cut case.

This is all the symptom of laziness of the mind. There is resistance to change, adapt and make the world a better place not just for this, but future generations.

There is no leadership in the US, no vision, no drive. The excessive wealth has created a leading class that happily rests on the laurels of prior generations while squandering the future.

This problem extends to all citizens, beyond the weak and needy, and permeates all levels of government from small to big.

I live in one of the best school districts in the US, and when I see the food the children are served I am surprised this is acceptable.

But this is what the US is, extract as much money from people while providing sub standard service. All in-the name of the free market and shareholder value.

People are an exploitable reaource.

No! Ignoring a stop sign is such a basic driving standard that it's an automatic disqualification. A driver that misses a stop sign would not have my kids in their car. They could be the safest driver on the racetrack it does not matter at that point.

excatly this

I thin their test is valid and not in bad faith because they demonstrate the Teslas self driving technology has no basic safety standards.

Your argument that a newer version is better simply because it's newer does not convince me. The new version could still have that same issue.

Ignoring a stop sign, not even slowing down, thats a major safety flaw.

I am wondering if there is a safety certification body for self driving technology. If not, one is needed because consumers can't be expected to be aware of all the limitations of the latest update they have installed.

There must be basic safety standards these systems need to meet, a disclaimer can't be the solution here.

Management has different layers with different goals. A middle manager and a director certainly care a lot about accomplishing short term goals and are ok with tech debt to meet the goals.

A lot of it is perception. Writing software was long considered somewhat difficult and that it required smart people to do so. AI changes this perception and coding starts to be perceived as a low level task that anyone can do easily with augmentation from AI tools. I certainly agree that writing software is turning more into a factory job and is less intellectually rewarding now.

AI needs to be trained, it cannot create knowledge in a vacuum. I think that's why there will always be some augmentation by humans to provide the context and the knowledge

Agree, why do the sites need to be offline for this? Amateur hour, probably some reality star calling the shots again

At a high level culture is about how people operate within. It's not good or bad per se but rather how your personality fits into that working style. For instance some companies put a big emphasis on ownership, which means that everyone will be chasing work like a hungry animal to get it done.

This attracts people with ambition and drive, which as a consequence also makes the workplace toxic if there are too many ambitious people.

My take is that culture requires balance, you need different personality types to create that balance in a team and end up with a good culture.

All this to say, the more a company talks about culture the worse their culture is.

Are you sure? I think it's very obvious that his plan of deporting people will increase the supply of housing.

I see a lot of dismissing people as stupid, and I don't think it's a fair assessment of what happened here.

It's one of those low reward high impact jobs.

Companies should fall over themselves to fund projects like this

I have another take, the democratic party is incompetent.

If they can't convince voters to vote for them given how bad the other side looks then they must be really incompetent.

What's the point of having all the feel good rallies in cities with famous people if you can't reach people in rural areas.

The democratic party is too elitist, too far from regular people.

I think this question is telling in the aggregate but not so much on an individual level.

Given a large company you can determine the cohesion between all employees and compare that to other (successful) companies.

I am no expert in any of this but this appears to be a proxy metric for tenure. As tenure increases people are more likely to consider someone a friend. So being below average on the cohesion would mean to me that the company needs to work on employee retention.

My 2 cents

It will take some time but we already managed to build infrastructure to have gas to fill up our cars wherever we go. I don't think this will be very difficult to do for electric cars.

For homeowners with a garden it's not necessarily about efficiency. I have a little garden and the food quality is just way better in terms of freshness and taste.

I completely understand you.

We accomplish this growth despite a lot of people not believing in global warming, despite having large corporations lobbying against renewables.

I am not sure why you are expecting the US to be a leader here. We are trailing other countries in many areas (healthcare, child mortality...) due to our political environment that makes positive change so difficult.

I think the important part is that the price has reached a level that incentivizes large scale installations.

Usage is going up and maybe that's attributable to more people shifting to electric cars.

We can certainly do better but claiming there is nothing to be proud of seems unnecessarily gloomy.

I am not familiar with how CS is or can be administered.

As a customer you should not have to assume the software your supplier vends is faulty to the extent of this incident.

It's reasonable for a customer to assume the software is tested according to industry best practices.

CS acted grossly negligent here, and they deserve the majority of the blame.

I agree that some blame also resides with customers, there must be disaster recovery procedures in place to allow them to function with minimal downtime in the case of emergency services.

That was my second point, the political environment does nothing to convey why people should have children

agree, the argument that the economy needs more warm bodies is not exactly inspirational.

It's not the expense that is scary but the risk.

Most of what children need, healthcare, food, shelter, supervision. Is directly tied to employment of the adults.

If an adult loses employment you lose all pillars to support your child.

The social safety net in the US is not sufficient for people to feel safe in having children.

Further, the argument of why people should have children so the economy is supported is very shallow. I am not raising children so the economy can have more consumers.

As a society we should have larger goals then the next quarter results of publicly traded companies.

Maybe it is. I don't like the connotation of it though.

It implies some sort of individual failure when I think it's an organizational failure is what I am was trying to say.

I don't know that incompetence is the best way to describe the forces at play but I agree with your sentiment.

There is always tension between business people and engineering. Where the engineers want things to be perfect and safe, because we need to fix the arising issues during nights and weekends. The business people are interested in getting features released, and don't always understand the risks by pushing arbitrary dates.

It's a tradeoff which in healthy organizations where the two sides and leadership communicate effectively is well managed.

I feel Windows is wrongly blamed here it's just an OS.

If you rely on your applications to be available you should have disaster recovery plans for scenarios like this.

sounds like a very inexperienced person.

If their mission is to protect businesses they should understand your concerns.

Speed is useless without control.

Given how widespread the issue is, it seems that proper testing on Crowdstrike's part could have revealed this issue before rolling out the change globally.

It's also common to rollout changes regionally to prevent global impact.

To me it seems Crowdstrike does not have a very good release process.

I think a big problem here is that all existing laws and the system concerning presidents rests on one very important assumption. That the commander in chief is a decent, rational human being that carefully considers his actions and holds the interest of the United States and the Citizens in high regards.

It all falls apart and gets too complicated to regulate when the assumption is that you can't trust the person in office.
