  • Let's see. Email - Iceland Web host - Iceland VPN - Sweden Backup - Norway

    Did I miss anything?

  • Wearing a hoodie with the words “We use Math” on the front, Google search boss Prabhakar Raghavan had an important message for employees at an all-hands meeting last month. But he first wanted them to settle in and get comfortable.

    ...

    Raghavan said Google’s digital ad business had become “the envy of the world.” He noted that over the last three years, annual revenue has grown by more than $100 billion, exceeding Starbucks, Mazda and TikTok combined.

    Does this mean you'll be using math to pay them more for producing more? (have to add /s)

  • Citizenship is one thing, but allegiance is another.

  • Spoken (barely) like someone who has no idea what he's talking about. Before you respond, get a spell checker and brush up on your grammar.

  • I've lived in the US for quite a few decades, but I'm still a German citizen. When asked why I don't take US citizenship, I give a three-part answer:

    1. I don't believe you can owe allegiance to two different entities at the same time.
    2. Between a German EU passport and a US Green Card, I can travel almost anywhere in the world.
    3. I f I ever run into legal troubles, first call is to the wife, second goes to the embassy.
  • Looks like a good reason to reject the bond in its entirety. It's obviously a bad faith attempt to get around the rules.

  • That's just it. You have to understand the output; otherwise you get very authoritative looking garbage.

    I wrote some rudimentary Python code to do a job by brute force. On a whim, I asked ChatGPT to optimize the code. It did a pretty good job, but I still had to tweak it for my purpose.

  • I found ChatGPT to be indispensable in dealing with a nonsense homework assignment. I had to write a paper on a subject I knew about, but had to write it from a specific viewpoint and in far less time than would normally be allowed. I wrote up an outline, checked my sources, etc. Told ChatGPT to flesh it out. Read through the output, made some adjustments, and reprocessed. When I was happy with the result, I had it write a closing paragraph. Once again, read through the output, made adjustments, and reprocessed. Same with the opening paragraph.

    Lastly, to remove all traces of AI, ran it all through QuillBot and had the input made more academic in some places, more casual in others.

    Lesson: know your subject before attempting this. ChatGPT can be a time saver, but only if you already understand the output. Think of it as you would an advanced spelling and grammar checker. It's just another tool/ After all, if your boss told you to write something, and you could do it in a quarter of the expected time and still produce acceptable output, would they be upset?

  • Can we please help him realize this? Start with locking him up for 27 years.

  • The press has learned that "engagement" is the only way for them to survive. The problem is that they are generating a false narrative to attract more viewers. Basically, it's become clickbait. They refuse to show all the information because then voters would see it and stop viewing them daily.

  • Revolutions start with "only this kind of people are allowed." Then they start refining what they mean by "this kind". Eventually, only a few people are in charge.

  • North America was a beautiful place. Then the white man showed up. Been downhill ever since. So, yeah, immigration is a problem. Care to fix it?

  • Vote to get ranked voting in place. Seems to be the best way to get your voice heard.

  • Unlike the precision guided munitions, the new F-15s would need to be built from scratch. A US official said there are no plans to expedite delivery of the jets to Israel so, if approved, they would not be delivered to Israel for at least five years.

    Is that enough time to vote in some Dems who will stop it?

  • Attempting to disrupt trade between our two democratic states

    Since when was Israel democratic? Bibi and Likud have certainly made every effort to turn it into a theocratic totalitarian state.

  • This marks the first time the bird flu has been found in dairy cattle, the American Veterinary Medical Association said, and the findings came just days after the virus was detected in goats on a Minnesota farm. In the fall, the bird flu also hit the polar bear species for the first time, killing one of the bears, and it has also spread to marine animals, killing tens of thousands of seals and sea lions.

    Bird flu was suspected of impacting U.S. cattle after dairy cows were found to be experiencing "decreased lactation, low appetite and other symptoms," agencies said in a joint news release. On March 25, they said milk samples showed two farms in Kansas and one in Texas were impacted. A swab from another dairy farm in Texas also yielded a positive result, they said.

    Bird flu was later found in a Michigan herd that had recently received cows from Texas, and "presumptive positive test results have also been received for additional herds in New Mexico, Idaho and Texas," officials said.

    ...

    While impacted cattle are experiencing a decline in how much milk they produce, the government said that so far, the milk loss "is too limited to have a major impact on supply."

    "There should be no impact on the price of milk or other dairy products," the agencies said. "Further, the U.S. typically has a more than sufficient milk supply in the spring months due to seasonally higher production."

    There is also no concern from the agencies that milk in the commercial supply is unsafe. All milk products must be pasteurized and only milk from healthy animals is allowed to be sent to processing for human consumption, they added.
