Yeah, until Trump (or whoever is president at the time) tells them to.

What will they do when the alternative is broken bones?

Why not try… master is now main after all

It’s not just about credit. Mortgages require money and money comes from working a job.

R&D and its practitioners are already under mighty pressure to justify their existence, if credit is taken off the table it’s the end of it as a means to survive (let alone comfortably).

To counterweight all the cynical takes about soldering RAM being a conspiracy to force device obsolescence, I can think of at least one other dynamic that could have resulted in today's scenario: smartphones.

Smartphones also need RAM and are especially subject to requirements of always being thinner, lighter, and have a durable battery, yet have spacious amounts of RAM.

Growing demand for smartphone RAM pushed for its optimization and production scaling and since all its requirements also match laptops, this convergence was inevitable.

Hopefully the growing demand for datacenter RAM density will make modular interface standards like LPCAMM2 more available (soldered has no place in datacenter).

No, vulns have been created by waves of leads clinging to their personas of “computer sorcerers”, gatekeeping, excluding anyone sounding the alarm or more humbly attempting to fix the mess. Whenever I hear “with great power comes great responsibility” (and the implication that the speaker is condescendingly containing the irresponsible) I cringe so hard that my teeth crack

it's the same "trusted compiler" argument, only at a different level. Though at least here you could -- if you wanted -- check the generated source.

interesting, I've been working on something similar myself... do you want to have a chat about it?

yep, and Sony Music Entertainment auto-ensured shareholder value was maximized

My only true worry is if AI begins to see us as competitors for resources, energy in particular.

It could decide to let us starve and die of exposure to secure all energy resources to itself.

We'd better use "dumb" and "not fully assertive" AI to solve fusion before it spins out of control (or alignment).

I don’t understand, the Florida law is about making threats and announcing them in public. But discussing this with an AI isn’t the same as posting them to Facebook

She’s glorious in the movie, though she does play the part of an extremely high maintenance woman uncannily well…

Like the parent wrote: one “patent” is a miniature vibrator, something like those found in cheap sex toys, the other consists of poaching people working on the frontiers of knowledge, corrupting them to steal such unique ideas for money.

Tell me you’re not so thick

Oef, still kicking the “communism” horse. It’s dead Jim, especially in China it’s dead and buried

Well, we can reduce every human activity to 0 value and take it from there: if there’s no value in understanding there’s no place for humans in the process, we can just go back to worshipping stones and let the AIs burn tokens deluding themselves chasing their hallucinations

Well, doing the most immoral and reprehensible thing on the edge of what’s lawful is a guaranteed “blue ocean” strategy so it’s inevitable that the most sociopathic will take the opportunity
