Especially since it would be compared to X.400.

Undocumented immigrants "raised local house prices and rents without expanding housing supply" — obviously, since local governments of both parties hate anyone who doesn't already …

US lawyers keep filing LLM-generated pleadings and refuse to check citations. It's taken state discipline committees a long time to get there, but they're close to figuring out tha…

It's been common knowledge for a long time. Just not in the population of people who set up agents and hand them personal credentials.

No; if you try to do this you don't launch in the first place because the amount of servers required to be useful can't be cooled within your payload budget.

That's the neat thing: you don't, or at least not in the megawatt range. A kilowatt can be done with radiative cooling but doesn't get you far with a hypothetical datacenter satell…

A few family, a few friends, some past work numbers, some of my phone numbers from a decade or two ago when I occasionally changed them, the Apple switchboard because I might have …

Lack of applications. They decided to fix that by adding an Android subsystem, and nobody wanted to publish their Android applications to the Amazon store even with Amazon throwing…

Getting an EE degree is always an option — but since CS isn’t an engineering degree getting a second bachelor’s will take four years part-time. I’m doing that now at ASU and the to…

How did Microsoft and OpenAI force their hand? Google could just as easily not waste money on AI, use the corresponding lack of notice-me-sempai demands from their products that th…

Your position assumes facts not in evidence. If the administration wanted to rebuild American manufacturing, the last thing they'd do is pile on additional taxes on manufacturing d…

Surely if the ATM were to taunt you it would use C, or maybe JavaScript.

Except American Express, which does have foreign currency fees (on some cards).

The primary goal of the Trump administration is to destroy American manufacturing. They don't want factories, hence all the tariffs.

If he wants to be treated as a POW rather than a spy should he be captured.

And IBM could have been AWS a decade earlier had they so chose.

Fiber is cheaper, faster, and far more reliable. You've already constrained the problem such that fiber is the only possible solution, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Standard FEPLI but also any USG employee stationed overseas needs the usual set of insurance policies, and specialist providers are familiar with the applicable laws (e.g., their c…

The CPC leadership have plenty of personal assets stashed in the EU/UK. It would be easy enough to take them to the cleaners by prosecuting them for violating Chinese AML laws.

ChatGPT isn't even a search engine, let alone a lawyer.

He's the one wasting his own time. If he didn't want that, he'd accept service like an adult instead of making servers jump through hoops.

Unlike serving as a Republican politician, clowning requires a lot of work and training. It's nothing resembling an unskilled job. Ringling Bros. would do a lot better.

People overestimated the importance that smokers placed on being able to smoke in public. A Japanese airline (Air Do) tried reintroducing the smoking section in the 1990s. It did n…

The Jones Act and friends are exactly what turned US shipbuilding into rent-seeking. You can have protectionism or you can have manufacturing, but not both.
