   Yes chess players are stronger thanks to AI. Which is why every high level chess player trains with AI, even if it's banned in actual tournaments

   I've worked for giant tech companies for the past 20 years and have literally never heard anyone refer to themselves or their coworkers as the smartest, most driven people on the planet, or movers or shakers. The biggest talk I've

   "why not post proof" - possibly because the company wants the issue to be resolved in real court and not in the court of public opinion.

   What's a family? Should it be 2-3 kids max, and then you're on your own? A solo adult who doesn't want kids is going to have far lower expenses and "living wage" than a single mother with 6 kids.

    I suppose if you advertise a job for $20/hr and a bunch of people show up and apply for the job, you're probably not going to start advertising the job for $40/hr instead. And whether $20/hr is a "living wage"

    Keep in mind you are getting one side of the story. The company seems to be claiming that the franchisee sold the sets and (perhaps) did not pay the consignor for the sales. And that the consignor moved his sets out of the store. > That

    If you're selling out venues at 5x a normal ticket price you will quickly be playing in much larger venues until you can't sell them out except at face value

    Sam is a power monster. He'd probably commit suicide before intentionally retiring and stepping away from influencing affairs.

    I don't know if you're aware but a big meme at Google from when Eric was CEO was when he was encouraging all googlers to install Nest in "one of your homes"

    At least the claim of Eric having a secret backdoor to Google servers letting him spy on whoever he wants seems unlikely. If he was spying on her putting spyware on her devices seems much more likely.

    Maybe the margins are just very large for Google because they predict so much demand for 3.5?

    Do the economics work out ? You can downsize the devs you have, but you need to maintain a smaller stable of very expensive devs, and then factor in the token usage. For example, a recent story about the openclaw creator using $1.3M of tok

    The reason the US is blockading is because Iran is only partially blockading it. If Iran wasn't blockading at all then America wouldn't either. But it's pretty clear that "only shops whose countries pay a lot of money to

    Huh? You can send an email and receive a response within a minute. You can call someone and literally have a live conversation with them. Yes, we've lost the ability to quickly send pieces of paper to arbitrary homes, but there really

    I assumed you were talking about who I know as james Simons, but just googled him to make sure there wasn't someone else, and yeah - first pic on Google is him with a cigarette. Also learned it was lung cancer that took him out, though

    I've taken the ferry from southern Italy(bari) to Croatia and back multiple times. It's a great way to travel. There's a camaraderie on a boat you just don't get on an airplane. Also helps that I can bring my car with me

    We(mammals) kind of were enslaved by those lizard overlords. Mammals evolved around 225 million years ago and by the time dinosaurs went extinct (through no fault of their own!) 160 million years later, mammals were, at best, small nocturna

    Here in Colorado we have a new anti coal rolling law, with a hotline you can call it in on. You know what happens when you call it in? The government sends a letter to the registered address of the truck saying, basically "Hey! Your e
