If opening up is what caused the marriage to fall apart, it was built on a broken foundation and was doomed from the start. You're only finding out now because emotional unavailability hides that sort of thing.
The owners of the largest military in the world will make it everyone's problem before it gets better.
Chaotic neutral: Python
This. I will never support a language that uses tokenized whitespace as 'Good' aligned.
A big part of the experience is talking to your buddy about the movie after it's over. Hard to do that when you go alone.
The problem is that incandescent lights are 1) warmer in tone, which is less harsh for the same candle ratings, 2) have a more gradual boundary than LED projector-style headlights, which means you aren't suddenly blinded when the car coming towards you goes over a minor bump, and 3) aren't a point light-source with the reflector design they have unlike LEDs, and thus are less painful. NONE of these issues are dealt with in a vast majority of new cars (adaptive-angle headlamps would do a lot to help, but would only fix one of the three issues - and only when the camera can actually figure out when they should be lowering the angle, which is far from foolproof).
If I could easily replace the LED headlamp in my new car with an incandescent lamp, I would - because I could still see decently with my old car's headlights, and I wasn't at risk of blinding everyone in the oncoming lane next to me.
Oh, it's completely the fault of the voters. It's also the fault of the DNC's messaging. The crappy economy (job markets and inflation/unchecked price gouging) meant that the uninformed were just voting for "Not the Party that's Currently In Power" because the cost of groceries and rent was outstripping their paychecks, and the messaging coming from the DNC was completely tangential to that.
Regular everyday Joes don't follow politics. Just because we do doesn't make us representative of the general population. That sort of thinking is what made Trump's victory a surprise - both times.
I'm pretty sure astronauts are trained on the usage of garbage receptacles.
The air filters would capture it eventually. It's not like the ISS has dead air.
I mean, the same goes for a login. People share Steam accounts too.
That implementation of NFTs was a total scam, yes. There are some cool potential applications for NFTs ... but mostly it was a solution looking for a problem. Even situations where it could be useful - like tracking ownership of things like concert tickets - weren't going to fly, because the companies don't want to relinquish control of the second-hand marketplace. They don't get their cut that way.
Give a man an LLM that can churn out poor-quality fish day after day for free until he gets used to not having to think for himself, then start charging for the privilege, and you'll make money for a lifetime.
Sure it is. If it's a program that is meant to make decisions in the same way an intelligent actor would, then it's AI. By definition. It may not be AGI, but in the same way that enemies in a video game run on AI, this does too.
Oh, he's acting rationally from the perspective of someone who thinks he has all the answers and wants to throw his weight around. He's trying to be a tough business guy to China and is only backing off when someone finally manages to explain to him that it's a bad idea in terms simple enough that he can sit through them.
The order was to shut down DEI policies, not to stop discrimination. And DEI policies explicitly exist to try to stop discrimination - meaning that what Trump really wants to do is appeal to white men who feel like they're being left behind when a Pakistani woman gets hired in a position they feel like they 'deserve'.
There's also the fact that despite the economic recovery post-pandemic, every-day Joes didn't see the recovery in their paycheck - and at the same time, inflation (price gouging, really) was rampant. The salt of the earth tends to vote by their wallet, and wallets were feeling the pinch at election time.
That, plus Democrats' well-known propensity for utter failure at messaging, practically guaranteed a Trump victory.
