You can, for example, give one an instruction to do something. After it has done it, you ask the other (verbal) hemisphere why they just did that, and they immediately make up a plausible-sounding explanation despite the scientists knowing it’s not the actual reason.
Sounds like AI got something right then.
It should be illegal to buy a company on loan and transfer that debt to the company. You should be required to get your money back via dividends or by building the company up and reselling it.
It’s only meaningless if you’re pedantic.
It obviously means the greatest of all time so far because at the time you make the statement you cannot judge what hasn’t happened yet.
It gets more complicated when you’re saying it about a company or game in the past but I still think that it has meaning. It could mean that at the time, they were the greatest of all time (up until that point in time) but it could also mean that at this point in time that past version of EA was the greatest of all time (up until now, which is beyond the time that that version of EA existed).
Well, they said that half struggled to afford it. They didn’t mention how many didn’t have a chance of affording it.
You have to fuck with other connected people then it becomes a game of top trumps.
For example, I’m sure that Sam Bankman-Fried wouldn’t have been convicted had he only defrauded ordinary people.
There seems to be a trend in journalism to avoid the word “and” and replace it with commas. I hate it.
This is much more readable:
MP who helps shape AI and auto policy owns Palantir and Tesla stock
They’d have taken a certain level of loss into consideration when they made the change.
They definitely wouldn’t want to break even on profits though.
But it’s in the interest of each business to charge as little as possible while maintaining profit.
So if a competitor of yours is able to not charge tax then you’d better get your act in gear to remain competitive.
There’s also an incentive to be the first to offer the tax free sales so it should sort itself out over time.
I don’t think that even Boris could have pulled that lie off. The Conservatives were very weak at the time which is why they agreed to the referendum in the first place.
I don’t think that there’s any scenario that involves us rejoining the EU and keeping the £.
We lost that special position and we’re not getting it back because the EU have found that they can manage without us.
They didn’t, but there’d have been literal rioting in the streets and the Conservatives wouldn’t have got back in power for at least a decade or two had they gone back on it.
Is it being a conspiracy theorist to think that they might have allowed it with the intention of making this exact move if it was discovered?
Better to not screw them.
That’s a little too close to reality for comfort. 😟
We have several governments saying that being able to read some people’s encrypted messages would catch some criminals, therefore we need to be able to read everyone’s encrypted messages.
I do agree with you in that it’s much better for the price to be the price and for tips to be entirely up to the customer.
That’s how it is in most UK restaurants in my experience but tips being added on already is creeping in. It used to be for large groups, then smaller groups and now a few places do it for everyone. Very annoying.
Great so assholes can get a 20% discount.
You’d be being an asshole if you were just doing it on principle but I have received bad service and asked for the tip to be removed. I didn’t feel like I was being a dick.
Doing this is different to increasing the price.
Firstly, from a PR point of view, it tells people that the extra money is going to the staff and not the restaurant.
More importantly, in the UK, we are legally able to object to a service charge placed on the bill and they have to remove it.
Dogging means something different in the UK.

I’m from the UK and I’ve heard of it. Maybe it’s a North or North West of England thing. We’re a small country but we still do have regional food.
Have you been doing mainly stealth combat rather than samurai? I’ve heard that the game goes all stormy if you act dishonourably like that.
Ideally, the restaurant should pay enough that tipping is not required (which does require them to raise prices). As a customer you would then be free to tip a smaller amount if you thought that the service was exceptional.
That’s how it works in the UK although a lot of businesses are adding a tip onto the bill in advance so that you would need to complain about the service to get it removed (technically you can just ask them to remove the tip without giving a reason if that’s how you want to play it).
