Some people like the idea but to me that only makes sense if you are basically doing the nomad thing at a cheap location. You’d want to stay in the place for awhile as you’re still spending most of the “vacation” working all day. On your days off you could do more. On an actual vacation you would actually be enjoying yourself the whole time. Traveling to just spend all your time working seems like a waste.

Also just try to work on just a laptop for a week. It sucks. I’m not doing that.

@crow Not really sure how someone faking it would expect things to work out. Someone could decide they could get a bunch of clout and followers by faking it. But at some point they get shown to be a fraud then they lose any following they had. Are the people who claim to have discovered something notable before this or could they just be riding a wave for a min for a quick buck? I guess there have been cases in more proper scientific circles of faked results.

Reporting on it is kinda whatever as that’s kinda just talking about what someone else claimed.

Another possibility is that some other mechanism is at work or there is a fault in the test setup. At that point the person making the claim could be wrong but not necessarily aware of it. Maybe due to a lack of knowledge.

To me it looks like an over estimation of the capabilities for the tech. Same kind of thinking that led to lawyers submitting fake cases as support in court. The current tech can be useful but has to be verified and generally tweaked a bit to be good enough. It certainly has room for improvement in quality and just not lying. Real world use has some copyright questions with what the training data was. Applying it to something creative is questionable and more or less feels like uninspired remixes.

Also the whole graphic is kinda suspect to me when “Blockchain engineers” is a job category and it’s produced by an org working on AI.

If you’re expecting 100 hour plus experiences in open worlds or detailed campaigns like AAA titles for $30-60 then there aren’t that many. There are still good titles. Might want to check out steam and see what’s popular in their VR section. Maybe see what has longer play times if that is what you’re interested in.

I have music or whatever it’s called now because I music and red together where the same price as just red. I still have it because I use YouTube more than streaming services like Netflix and don’t mind supporting creators I’m watching. I use some of the features of premium on the app on my phone and fire stick too which could be worked around but would be a hassle.

For a vast majority of people who mainly view YouTube as a free service I highly doubt they’d be willing to pay $7 a month let alone $14. A large portion of their viewer base is kids and they aren’t going to pay. Maybe if they add stickers or whatever TikTok is going nuts over as part of the monthly sub.

Those who make the decision still have a full blown office with real walls and a door so won’t be negatively affected. It’s mostly pushed because the open office idea is cheaper and allows managers to see butts in seats. Studies show it’s a bad idea but people talk about collaboration and whatnot as an excuse.

We can meet you halfway. The walls will go up about 6 inches above the table. We find this increases synergy and collaboration. On an unrelated note most of our office workers were headphones and are reluctant to talk as it disturbs the entire office.

RFK Jr is an anti-vax and conspiracy theory nut. DeSantis is basically the home schooled version of Trump.

DeSantis vs RFK Jr wouldn’t really be much of an improvement. Just a different flavor of shit. Like lemon flavored shit instead of lime flavored shit.

Often time scammers put a few typos and whatnot into initial contact to weed out smarter people. Mainly if the scam is going to involve phone calls or something. Scams just trying to get passwords or infect your computer might try harder to look legit.

So what you’re saying is that I can already spin up extra LLCs and get extra ballots?

Look man people just love old shit. Museums are full of it.

It’s probably a good idea to cast a wider net but I’m not mod or anything. In the US the term “liberal” is used to just mean “leftist” in most everyday conversation. People aware of actual meanings might get annoyed but no one seems pay attention to those people.
