Marketing executives thinking “out of the box” is how. Ethics cannot contain them inside. They have breached the perimeter and now trample everyone for MRR.

In my experience the biggest cheaters were foreign exchange students who saw the six month to year stateside studies as a mere opportunity to have fun and pretend to study.

So if I were an unethical hacker who hires Ukrainians to develop an APT for me and they know what I’m using it for, they are in the clear ethically because they’re using it to feed their children and arm themselves against russkies?

So the unethical helping of unethical students is being subverted by unethical language models… What a world! I guess I should not be surprised by people being sympathetic to this “business model.”

What a garden path of a sentence! I’m not surprised by this, unfortunately. One can hope that it does not materially affect (bias) output.

Well, when people get their news from entertainers, that’s when things are wrong. One should not be informed on important topics by people who have little understanding of things but have a lot of feelings about things in the world. If yo

I think we need to know the nature of the agreements (what did they agree to) as well as whether they are legally binding. Without that information we’re all left to guess.

I'm partial to the Goode Homolosine projection, next is whatever NatGeo standardized on. Of course, the best is an actual globe --but decent sized ones are too expensive and the beach ball ones are just not very well made.

Why? People have put out apps to track them in order to doxx, hound and intimidate them. People organize neighborhood vigilantes to look out for ICE. Communities have chosen to not turn over violent offenders who are in the country illega

There don’t seem to be recent studies. Mostly the reports go on to say that they are overall positive but that the overall positivity depends on department policies, rollout, etc. It looks like it’s too early to tell for certain. There ar

Things have side effects. When teachers ask to show or explain your work good students have no problem with it and poor students don’t do as well. Yes, it means good students have to put in a bit of more (unnecessary) work but overall it’

Indeed. In addition, for the most part, even police view their cameras as a positive. Cameras have exonerated them from frivolous accusations many times and conversely have outed bad police who go on power trips -both good qualities. The

He's probably photographed it, but one of the biggest and the pinnacle of this idea, I think, is the Longaberger building in Ohio. If he did photograph it, I think it should have been among the ones listed in the article. Of course it

Because all other parties both want more immigration and two do their best to ignore the crime statistics by the immigrants. There is also the high percentage of immigrants who require public assistance coupled with a reluctance to assimil

When Congress people enrich themselves while serving in office[1] and there's a revolving door from public service into private and we have billions in unaccounted spending, fraud everywhere you look (especially since Covid), it's

IT is usually not the one doing the enforcement. They typically only do the monitoring and may report some activity above thresholds. Legal is usually the one initiating then engaging with HR to do enforcement.

You know that might work a little if, and only when people follow through. Unless trained as spies, and even they fail on occasion, people will lapse. As a feel good option, yeah, go for it. In reality I don’t think it does much. They h

Thus far, what has the bottom line value add been by their R&D ventures? Some of their open compute and a few other things have been nice. But, of the billions upon billions they’ve spent what have they had to show for it? As noted in t

It’s orthogonal. Whether legal or not you know they have the data. I think most people were glad authorities were using flock and cell tower data to backtrack and arrest folks involved in the Jan riots. They didn’t push back then cuz they

It won’t matter. Slow encroachment. Everyone has learned from Google that slow encroachment gets what you want. Price sensitive folks going to dollar general, wal-mart, etc., are not going to go shop at whole foods (assuming they even diff

This is definitely a good step, however, ALPRs are not going away unfortunately. They have and are and will keep getting deployed by private businesses. They are too valuable for them at this time. The likes of Wal-Mart, etc., will poten

You know, they used to. Bernie spoke against relocating refugees (from Serbia or something) back in the day due to the fact he had unemployed local Vermonters. They used to care. They had cared less since the second Reagan admin, but com

Also, if you go by the Lisep TRU article (whose premise I mildly disagree with) over 20% of Americans are “functionally unemployed” then that says American employers are screwing their compatriots by bringing in lower wage substitutes and m
