That’s probably more a stalling tactic then anything else.

The longer they can run down the clock, the greater the chance is that Trump dismantles the FCC before the case is over, and even if he doesn’t do that it lets them keep selling data for longer.

Privacy badger does this.

Wainwright has already condemned it and Leonard Cohen’s estate has issued a cease and desist order in response.

I’m expecting the full Elvis.

Dies on the toilet while eating a big Mac.

I thought it was someone watching their partner give/receive oral sex and cycling through anger and depressed acceptance.

Fuck palantir, I want to know how Sauron is voting.

They recommend that you do vote, and don’t vote for anyone except Harris.

But they don’t explicitly recommend you vote for Harris.

This is super serious voting strategy you guys.

Both. It’s satire.

The “benefit” of world hunger is that it keeps people locked in their place and entrenches the status quo. This is actually true, and the author believes it, but he doesn’t like it.

Many people benefit from world hunger though, and every time you hear that poverty is a hard problem to solve you should ask yourself, how much of that is actual problems and how much is the status quo resisting change?

In theory. It’s just standard contract law. You violate the contract, so you have to make the other party right.

In practice, the court is likely to go, “You should’ve hired someone else to do the work. No costs”

No, not at all.

If the company fire you they have to pay you, e.g., three months notice, regardless of if they want you to do the work or not.

If you quit without notice, you might have to pay the costs incurred by you quitting early, but that’s not your salary -because they now wouldn’t be paying you.

Costs might be something like the company having to refuse an order because they now don’t have enough people to do the work, or the increased cost of an expedited hiring process.

I don’t know how common costs are in France, but the UK has the same rules and essentially no one ever claims costs. You need to really fuck over your employee in a very explicit and well documented way for this to even be considered.

The main disadvantage is you will have a bad reference if you leave without notice.

If you hate billionaires but like steak, have you tried eating the rich?

“Get out to vote” is a direct instruction. It means you personally should go and vote.

“Get out the vote” means you should get everyone else out to vote. “Vote” is being used as a mass noun that you want to make as large as possible -by getting it out and making sure people turn up.

A relationship graph which requires no gay relationships is called a bigraph (honest, I’m not making this up) or bipartite.

That follows because if you can two color the graph so that edges only connect different colors, you just assign male to one color and female to the other.

This means there’s a tone of mathematical identities describing this. Wikipedia has a good introduction.

That’s just what they want you to think.

He fucked up dropping out as well as everything else. People can still vote 🪱 in a bunch of states.

The original case was just bullshit made up by a bored journalist.

In 2007, an article in the American Psychologist found “no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive”.

I’m still hoping this happens and leads to a WWE style outcome.

Elon has a heart attack on the ring and falls on top of Zuck pinning and smothering him. Zuck is forced to tap and Elon is stretchered out the ring

It just says can be activated. Not “automatically activates”.

Kill switches are overly dramatic silliness. Anything with a power button has a kill switch. It sounds impressive but it’s just theatre.

You err’d fucked-up twice.

Once when you flat out failed to find anything using Google, when other people clearly had no trouble at all. If you’re telling the truth, this just means you suck at Google. There’s no reason to be googling chatgpt’s hallucinations instead of searching for the stuff an actual human told you about.

The second time was when you took chatgpt seriously. Just don’t. It’s a very expensive toy that occasionally does something cool. We’re still trying to figure out if it’s actually useful for anything, or if it’s just really good at appearing useful.
