Right but who is going to prosecute? the Department of Justice?

I mean they could just feed the solutions into the training data. Then suddenly the bot will do real good at HLE.

Exactly. This is called overfitting and it's most definitely a thing.

Ah yes, Russia, the famously territory starved country.

Billionaires try very hard to increase their own wealth. Politicians try very hard to increase their own power.

USA won't injure or kill 1 in 25 of young adults in the Iran war, unless somehow Iran does have a nuke and wants to use it, come on.

Quite possibly would end up killing or injuring that many Iranians, though.

Gaza is up to 10% of the population killed or injured in the Oct 7 reprisals: https://costsofwar.watson.brown.edu/paper/HumanTollGaza

Raw manpower is hardly the only aspect of war.

Especially in modern war.

Running out of fancy equipment, for example, causes quite a few problems if your opponent hasn't. Like interceptor missiles.

Currently conflict is a really good sales pitch for buying more interceptors.

You could expect order books to get so thick that production increases.

I mean looking from the side lines, I could see why many countries might want to have a few interceptors on hand. Just in case, it's certainly a nice way to buy some time.

You are not telling the whole story.

You can mix indentation and braces to delimit blocks.

It's insane.

As a casual observer who has written perhaps a dozen lines of Scala in his life, I feel like Scala approaches any “pick one” decision with “why not both?”.

Functional or OO? Yes.

I like how Haskell does it. One can do both but not mix, as in either indent or use `{ ... }`.

I personally think this put the final nail in the coffin.

Dunno about Xcode, but if you put a go compiler in there, I doubt it will compile or run slowly. Some dependencies may require C, but you could avoid that mostly.

Have you ever looked at a dollar bill in your life.

Who do you think printed it. Who signed the bill?

The US can just print money and receive goods in exchange of literal paper. Or just put an extra zero in a bank account and receive goods in exchange.

And if a certain yahoo decides they want in the money printing scheme...who do you think is going to send the goons with guns to prevent the government monopoly in creating literal wealth.

No company ever got a man to the Moon.

Sure, some companies participated in the process. But it was a government that did it.

It's been more than 50 years and private companies haven't been able to match it.

The greatest technical achievement of mankind was done by a government. Private industry could, at best, help.

Sorry all the other things you name are great. But the winner is government.

Until recently, no private company wanted to go to the Moon.

And it is particularly ironic to select that since the government’s attempt to return is the most expensive, slowest, least tested launch system possible, and still needs help to get to the Moon.

And nobody went back to the moon.

Conservatives discovered a cheat code to get: (a) people to have to identify on the computer everywhere and (b) control what they can do with and without this identification.

Of course they are copying the play everywhere.

Where are the robots going to sleep? Outside in the rain?
