An AI should never make a decision for child welfare. It simply isn't black and white and can just be tied to logic. Child welfare involves a lot more than just behavior, it involves emotions, something AI currently lack and probably will for a long time. The fact it is already in use is terrible. You can't just be like "Parent has X, so their children needs Y", there are maybe hundreds of factors in play on their children's welfare and a disability doesn't mean a child can't thrive nor does it mean a child's welfare is in danger. People who has no disabilities can be terrible parents too and a disability doesn't necessarily make one a bad parent. There are simply too many factors in a child's upbringing that their welfare isn't solely based on treatment from a parent. While parents play a large role in the welfare of children, then disabilities of the parent can be treated and almost be of no harm to a child's welfare.

I don't think he realistically have any huge impact on BTC, on the rest maybe, but BTC is too big and independent that he has no real impact on how it is valued. At least that is my impression.

I wonder if the locations researchers are staying at are located on top of the land or if it's just randomly located and could be either. Like if all (or a majority of) the ice melted how big of an impact would it have on the locations?

"Okay, let me just video call you because I also need to show you something" and then the scammer hung up and was to never be seen again.

It's necessary in some things, for example I made an app for myself where I have words/sentences spoken by text to speech, something like 12000 words/sentences, both in a normal speed and a slow speaking speed. That would be very difficult for me to do with natural voices as that would require some human to read these words/sentences, not to mention how expensive it would be, when I was able to do it for free with AI.

There are some things where AI voices absolutely ruin it, but it's not always a requirement for "emotions" to be felt in the speech we're listening to.

It's fairly common to have POST requests that have both a body and a query string. Or maybe not "fairly common" but it isn't really rare.

I know this is a little off-topic, but I would like to say that I read "Netflix: 30% birthrate saving" and was very confused at first.

But tell me, how are you going to tax the super rich? It's incredibly difficult to tax someone who's actually poor on paper. Most super rich people actually don't seem to have much wealth officially declared, all of their wealth is sort of like "pseudo" in that it's all tied up in assets, and sometimes assets that aren't directly owned by them but their companies etc. and they have a lot of shortcuts for tax breaks on the stuff that can be taxed. With the current system in place then it's impossible to actually tax the rich.

It's fine in that case since that's a framework and not a language.

What is not an extensive offence under British law at this point?

I can't tell if you're serious about "Valve as big enough"

Valve isn't some small indie company. They're not massive in terms of employee size, as they're only in the hundreds, but remember they have some of the biggest gaming tech stacks, such as Steam in itself, but also games like CSGO, which is arguably still one of the biggest fps games. No doubt they run those things solely by themselves without contracting some of the work outside of the company.

Localhost isn't going anywhere as long as I am developing, at least not for me.

It's still by far the fastest way to prototype for me and it works out of the box.

I guess people reinventing the wheel with a new programming language isn't just some newer-age thing, but happened frequently decades ago too.
