Yeah, I know that the vast majority of Java applications out there are stuck on ancient versions of the JVM and spew back traces in their logs as if they bought them in bulk.

Pressure is also bad for aviation since pressure vessels are usually heavy.

Also I doubt they like always flying with a 90% empty hold.

Sure they would if they knew it in advance. They could sell that as cargo space.

Sometimes I wonder why there isn’t a term ‘sports terrorist’ but they easily declared much more harmless activities by climate activists as ‘eco terrorism’.

Second Life might not be as universally successful as originally envisioned but it is still going 20 years later and land indeed still sells for thousands of US$ in certain popular locations so it is actually a pretty bad example of hype that was completely baseless, it was just over-hyped, not like current hype cycles that are pretty much 100% bullshit like cryptocurrencies, the Hyperloop, self driving cars or AI replacing workers.

The event’s puzzles were designed so they could be solved locally, making them accessible even to AI models with technical constraints.

Want to bet that those puzzles (or some very similar ones) were part of the training data of some of the agents?

Workarounds for the shortcomings certainly make bribes possible with crypto but not exactly easier than with traditional currencies.

I don’t think people who give or take bribes usually like having a permanent history of the transaction.

Most of them aren’t really because it is not anonymous, just pseudonymous and once you are identified your entire transaction history is public.

We don’t even have laws preventing real human abuse if the victim groups have no political lobby in a lot of countries.

Python isn’t really strict enough to be a good learning language and Java has too much accidental complexity that literally matters in no other language.

And Java is very much considered legacy in the vast majority of projects that use it.

Also consider that the same idiot decision makers have been happily applying Factory-management methods to knowledge workers for decades without noticing how badly that works.

I sort of assumed that would be the case with cryptocurrencies too considering it is 100% scams but so far I am still waiting. And AI has far higher chances to convince idiot CEOs than cryptocurrencies ever had.

That is exactly what Ollama does too.

The Colour Out of Space seems appropriate for the times.

Actually Alibaba also has their own cloud services (Alibaba Cloud)

I mean they are likely considering the offer. Considering it a bad joke maybe, or an insult, or most likely both.

But sometimes when you leave people alone with their struggles they end up losing against those urges.

And nobody said that the production of child pornography should be legalized, though even talking about this reveals that we apparently don’t make a linguistic distinction between material that essentially requires sexual abuse of children to produce and material that requires nothing more than some art supplies and artistic skill. That is the part that I consider disgusting, that we apparently dislike it so much that we forget all about the actual harm the production of some of it does to actual children in our efforts to use euphemistic language to avoid thinking about it too much. It feels like the emotional comfort of those taking part in the public discourse about it is more important than actually solving the problem for the victims.

Wooden roof beams are also 100% plant fibers, as are wool sweaters and the sewer system definitely can not handle neither of those.
