I can see how this might be true if an AI can respond to individual cues from a single kid, which a teacher can’t reliably do because they have to look after 30 kids at once.
I’m skeptical that those cue responses will be reasonable though. Maybe in the mean, but I reckon there’s gonna be some wild and potentially traumatic edge cases.
I’m not convinced that’s the screenwriters’ fault. I think more likely its that the mainstream movie industry knows that pastiche crap is what is most profitable, so that’s all it funds.
Similar with pop music. Most stuff that gets made is garbage. But it doesn’t mean that amazing stuff isn’t being made, it’s just that you have to hunt for it.
Movies are worse because the resource and people requirements for a single movie are much more substantial than for a single album.
True. That would be a minescule fraction of what’s there though…
It’s funny how we all grow up thinking that law is this immutable set of rules that can’t be broken or bad things happen to you…
Reality is there’s no rules, there’s just power, and some vague guidelines that might tell you how that’s power’s going to be used. And if it seems like the power won’t be able to use those guidelines for their own benefit, then they’ll get them changed.
CO is not a significant greenhouse gas. (And N20 is…)
Are diamond particulates likely to burn if they’re dispersed in the atmosphere?
I fucking hate that this is a sensible question to ask every time now
I don’t think that question is as simple as you think. Peaceful protest is much more likely to garner public support, at least until things are critical. And taking weapons to a protest in the US seems like an almost guaranteed way to die, one way or another. Not saying the cops are well trained with weapons, but neither are the general public.
Yes
In that case I definitely choose the 1000 roaches
Do they chip in for rent?
If you’re living in apartments in a major city, both are already true.
How would guns have helped in the George Floyd case?
Sorry, I meant to say new private investment
Solar and wind are currently both cheaper than coal, and rapidly getting cheaper.
Nuclear is more expensive, and the cost is growing. There will be almost certainly be no private investment in nuclear in the future unless it’s ideologically driven.

The half life of fall-out from the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs was a couple of decades.
The half life of nuclear waste from powerplants is anywhere from thousands of years to millions of years, depending on the mix of isotopes.
95%+ of posts and comments have been in support of a murderer, barely any opposition, even on more conservative social media like Facebook… Sure, the general public is different, but even if it’s 60%, that’s still a lot…
Bill George, a former Medtronic CEO and executive fellow at Harvard Business School. “People are in disbelief that they would be making this kid into a hero,” he told Fortune.
Which “people”? Who are “they” in this context?
Actually most of those quotes read as completely disconnected from normal people’s reality…
I’ve also been wondering that. Seems like news about the incoming trump admin is 10:1 against the outgoing administration. I don’t think that happened in 2016?
The realism is fine, but the pessimism just seems pointlessly demoralising for anyone who is capable of acting.
Isn’t that what peertube is for?
