  • Did Donald Trump Just Activate His Plans to Become King?

  • Even then, there's an extremely real chance that there will never be any profits to privatize.

    If the USA agreed to pay every dime of expense to renovate Venezuelan oil fields for ExxonMobil, that's still 10-30 years of putting employees on a project that might go nowhere, instead of working on something more likely to have an ROI. Even if money is subsidized, time remains limited.

  • And like, even if Trump had a come-to-Jesus moment and had no intention of reneging on his promises here: there's no way to ensure that Venezuela won't re-narionalize their natural resources again in 5, 10, 15 years when the oil companies have invested all that money and are just starting to see some revenue back from it.

  • I got a zero on a paper my freshman year of college, for not citing sources in my writing. I learned from that mistake and did better for the rest of my academic career.

    She's a junior, she should know that by now.

  • Also never quoted the Bible, just stayed their interpretation of it without referencing any specific scripture.

    Also, no internal citations in the text, that's an instant zero on any college level essay.

  • How, exactly, does one make a living as a mathematician?

    Jump

  • Finance, there's a whole lot of arcane statistics underlying risk management.

    Tech, the bleeding edge of computer science is really just applied math.

  • Honey Dipper.

    As long as you spin it (along the axis of the handle), the honey stays on the stick and doesn't drip all over everything. When you stop spinning, it drips all over your food.

    It's a niche tool but 11/10 at its one job.

  • Good NAS solution for dummies / apple users?

  • Synology, with QNAP as a close #2. There are other decent options, but they aren't quite as polished so they may require more "actual computer knowledge" to troubleshoot from time to time.

  • Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn

  • Don't kid yourself. Anti-porn lawmakers know that there are like 4 big porn sites and if you can shut down access to those ones, it is a huge step towards their goals.

  • Republicans Complain That Cars Have Become Too Safe, Say It Must Be Reversed

  • I think we're finally past the peak of tablet-ification of car dashboards. A lot of manufacturers have finally realized people hate it and newer models are putting all crucial functions on buttons and only putting infotainment stuff on the tablet.

  • Valve dev counters calls to scrap Steam AI disclosures, says it's a "technology relying on cultural laundering, IP infringement, and slopification"

    Jump

  • There's also the massive gray area of "what do YOU define AI to mean?"

    There are legitimate use cases for machine learning and neural networks besides LLMs and "art" vomit. Like, what AI used to mean to gamers: how the computer plays the game against you. That probably isn't going to upset many people.

    (IIRC, Steam's AI disclosure is specifically about AI-generated graphics and music so that ambiguity might be settled here)
