To paraphrase Willie Sutton’s probably apocryphal answer to the question of why he robbed banks, ‘Because that’s where the money is.’

That's an eminently reasonable and logical policy. Thanks for the context.

Anything made by humans can be unmade by humans. Security is a perpetual arms race.

Pipelining, mostly.

Because you’d be denying cast and crew of their royalties?

If people pirated on a mass scale, the losses would add up. Whatever you may think about streaming platforms, don’t punish the people just trying to make a living.

It’s both greed and laziness.

That will probably happen eventually, but right now RISC-V only has the hp for embedded or peripheral uses. It will continue to nip at ARM’s heels for the next 5-10 years.

Exactly. The best writers all have one thing in common: they’re voracious readers.

Hence the ‘or else’ qualifier.

Maybe Copilot will get wrapped into a Sky.NET meta-platform.

AI provides cover to lay people off, or else commit constructive dismissal.

ACA is largely based on Heritage Foundation policy papers. Project 2010, if you will.
