  • indeed it is. it is not very relevant to our discussion though. it is not a "cell tower" and it needs rather expensive end user hardware. limit of proliferation of such hardware among population during some kind of government internet shutdown will be approaching to zero.

    also, as any kind of radio communication, it can be locally jammed, which further reduces its usability in a crisis.

  • oh, then i did misunderstood, but i still don't see what you are suggesting. maybe if you get assigned address you can have some limited p2p communication with nearby people, but if that is the case, a guy with a megaphone does similar job.

  • it is far easier to just shut down local peering center and transit for major providers. far less moving elements to take care of than cell towers, which would not even address the whole problem ("problem" from the government's point of view)

  • Then the student could just ask the AI to simulate a thesis defense and learn answers to the most likely questions.

    while my opinion of economy as a field is not very high, i still have high enough opinion of any teacher to believe they do outperform shitty ai...

  • well, not sure if it works the same everywhere in the world, but here, you first write the graduation thesis and then you have to publicly defend it.

    if the defense committee (or is it an attack committee, since it is the student who is on defense? :D) can't ask questions in a way to find out whether the student actually wrote the paper and understands the topic, then what fucking pseudo-scientific field is that? (and the answer indeed is - it is economics 😂)
