Radiolab did an amazing episode on “What is the purpose of the Police?”

The had two really gut wrenching stories that will make you hate the police. The TLDR is the police could have protected them, but did nothing.

Turns out there was a Supreme Court case where the police fought it was NOT their obligation to protect. For it to be an obligation, it has to meet like 10 standards from went to the police to the police engage then failed to act. It made me incredulous. Protect and Serve my ass.

The other bit that was fascinating is in most states, no one chartered the police into existence. The police wrote their own charter, it was not given to them. Kind of crazy, the police just popped up and got funded. No clear ask in writing, almost as if the original purpose was to be the mayor’s goon squad and/or slave catchers.

So we have a government body that writes their own charter, are not here to protect us, are not required to know what they are enforcing, in fact not held to the same standard of law as everyone else, expect us to recognize their authority which the people actually never gave them, they investigate themselves, are rewarded for seizing peoples assets even without a conviction which allows them to militarize themselves, have max IQ requirements because they want them dumb enough to obey, and at a flinch are allowed to shoot people.

Then you have the bad cops.

> I see no issue with admitting your own video as evidence.

Neither do I. However i recommend you look up a bunch of 'sovereign citizen' video's on youtube.

Basically these chuckle-fucks all record themselves breaking the law and then post the videos, because they have a poor understanding of the law, and think they can get either be let go entire;y, or a massive payout, if they speak some magic words.

Note however, many of the repeat offenders with channels almost certainly know by now they are harassing officers, and are doing it for the donations and ad revenue.

> The truth is what's important to the legal system.

As an entirely separate statement... I am not convinced.

If this was true, explain Fox getting away with their antics till now, which they achieved via that court case claiming nobody anywhere would take their content seriously.

they do a lot of business in the telecommunications industry. as well as some hosting solutions for companies

Either do you bro.

I work in manufacturing and have for iver 20 years.....you have no idea what you are talking about.

I have a dead hp x360, I want to turn the screen onto an external touch screen.... is this possible ?

It absolutely will.

A digital singularity wont eliminate the cost of manufacturing physical compenents out of raw materials, transporting those raw marerials, and finished products, or other costs associated with actual robots.

Fine...next to free, captain semantics. There are 25 million users a day...costing $0.0004/user......so basically free.

We’re probably 10 years or less away from a singularity.

Sure, but still not something the average family will be able to afford anytime soon(probably not in your lifetime), especially as most families dont have human labor costs, like maids, to offset the cost of a complex robot(or multiple single purpose robots).

The complexity of these things will be almost like a car, and the components will not be cheap printed circuitboards and screens in a plastic housing like cell phones or computers. They will have a LOT of precision moving parts requiring regular maintenance and repair. Dont plan on having Rosie from the Jetsons unless you are pretty rich.

Can that even be called AI?

They are going after each other, nice

There's two of us now?

Damn, time to look for something less crowded.

I've been downvoted because people can't read. I've already had two responses thinking I'm on the side of the police.

México will pay for it

You say that like it’s a joke but with the API version of ChatGPT, someone with little to no coding experience can produce some really sick malware.

It’s like performance-enhancing drugs for script kiddies.

Data kills narratives though.

I could only imagine their resumes

Sometimes the only winning move is not to play. Like global thermonuclear war.

TIL Ericsson was still around

> trying to find gotcha questions for it.

That's QA's job.

> Microsoft

Oh.

Algorithms are a piece of cake. It’s the languages, libraries and apis changing every year that is the problem. Refactor this text processing class from c#3 to c#7. That’s a good task for it to try.

PyTorch? Hello?

>they used the technological insights gained from meeting and protected patents to copycat the design.

There was a scene in Silicon Valley (HBO) where they did exactly this lol
