Weāre literally cooked. Massive amounts of methane will be released thanks to melting permafrost and methane is an absolute brute of a greenhouse gas.
We blew our chance to try and stop this and now itās a one way trip to hell.

Anyone trying to update an actuary table for weather events is attempting the impossible.
Might as well assume the worst from here on out and exit the property insurance business.

Doesnāt matter, airlines are voting with their feet and going to manufacturers actually delivering planes.

I was also stunned by the cavalier dismissal of serious work that has actual health and safety consequences.
I think the inefficiency of continually correcting a bullshit machine will prove itself quite unpopular quite quickly.

Even without incentives they still make economic sense thanks to the massive reduction in cost to manufacture and deploy, and the fact the energy generation is free from then on.
Wall St being greedy shortsighted fuckers as usual.

There is nothing in the current approach that would lead to AGI. There is no leap from here to understanding.

6/ This will be similar. It's an amazing gimmick and has some definite uses: automatic language translation is a huge boon. But to deploy it for core business functions? Absolute non-starter. The inevitable mountain of mistakes, fabrications and omissions will be its undoing.

5/ Anyone remember all the gushing over the blockchain a few years back? And there were Chief Blockchain Officers or whatever? It proved to be an incredibly inefficient database system and everyone quickly moved on.

4/ I think all the grandiose visions for AI integration will fall apart and we will be left using it assistive work on small tedious tasks and we will remain firmly in control of the work products.

3/ My comfort is that business hates inefficiency and introducing prolific error generation tools into work will prove to be incredibly inefficient.

2/ You better be damn sure someone certified in those codes is signing off on the designs! Bullshit jobs have turned our brains to mush.

1/ What shocked me in this article was the authors blasƩ attitude to serious work. Designing a house is not just drawing a pretty picture and there are many exacting standards for home construction to withstand the various natural forces that occur from earthquakes to hurricanes.

At this point the players should just randomly kick the ball around.
No one is watching and FIFA is disgracing them.

Except for Pearl Harbor, the USA has not experienced the devastating impact of modern warfare. And even that was a military target.
Instead the USA has inflicted that warfare on many civilian populations and it has been presented as whiz bang fun for the citizenry.

For once the answer actually is āterrible people on both sidesā which is why no one is itching to release it. This should be where Anonymous steps in, but so far all theyāve taken down is a lacrosse teamā¦
But see also the Panama Papers. Released to cricketsā¦

My suggestion, we go back to Paris. They ran it beautifully and cheaply (and they get another go at cleaning the Seine!)

It also seems unlikely many people are risking travel to the USA at the moment.
So the combination of domestic disinterest and foreign absence is pretty dire for ticket sales!

Being told a pint of real ale would be wasted on me at a CAMRA pub in York.
(The bartender was unaware that Iām originally from the UK and regularly attended the Real Ale Festival in Greenwich back in the 80s)

Weāve created a logistical hell for ourselves.
When I was a kid in summer, I left the house to meet friends, ran riot all day, and then came home for dinner.

My take away: we have no fear of the Army taking up arms against the people for some Trump coup.

This at least seemed to be honoring the Army history with some WWII era tanks.
Trump probably found them very disappointing, no fat tanks!

Edit: a fellow poster reminded me of all the assassinations in the 60s, so yeah white hetero men too.
Wake up to the reality of political and cultural violence in this country.

Probably time to reread some history.

Itās shocking (not shocking) how many Americans were chomping at the bit to turn on their neighbors.

The second time was in Dartmouth, my home town for a while as a teenager. I put in my order for a couple pints and the bartender just stared at me. I looked at him and eventually he said āYouāre missing a 6 letter wordāā¦ I thought for a moment and said āThanks?ā š
āPleaseā is expected now?!

As a Brit thatās lived in the USA for 35 years Iāve been humiliated twice at British pubs.
Once in York at a CAMRA pub where I was excited to try some proper real ale as the last time Iād done it was in the 80s at the CAMRA festival in Greenwich. I was told it would be wasted on meā¦š«

Drove to Atlanta and back the other weekend and only experienced one, maybe two?
Always a āthrillā but far fewer than it used to be. Definitely not to be used in heavy traffic.

If youāre still holding Elon meme stocks then how can you care what he does? Heās been proven to be completely irresponsible time and time again!
āGo f yourselfā to advertisers on his advertising platform?!
His investors are loving it and I have no sympathy.
