Why in the world would you do this in the US?

This is one area where I am vehemently in support of IP protection for all the writers and artists’ works being used. Unfortunately, unlike when it comes to suing individuals who copy something, the wholesale theft of generations of art and writing by AI companies is just being let slide.
Immediately made me think of this.
Honestly I can’t argue with that. That’s the reality of the situation. But emotionally they still deserve a bigger piece of what they created.
The value of anything is what people are willing to pay for it, full stop.
The share price literally wouldn’t be what it was if people weren’t literally buying pieces of the company at that price. So it’s very literally saying what the company is worth on the open market. Even with all your obfuscation, that’s still the case.
The company’s valuation in a public company reflects the price that people pay for shares, so it shows the value of the company on the open market. The employees created this value, so it does indicate how much they each created quite accurately. And you would think that they’d at least get a representative percentage of that at least. I mean if you paint a painting and someone pays $1m for it, you get $1m gross. You make the software and IP that’s sold for $100m and you only get $100k a year, that’s kinda wack.
Yes, for politicians the cost is always lower to kick the can into the next administration’s term. Unfortunately it becomes more and more expensive for the rest of us.
Windows is unusable without Rufus. So glad I used it.
Well yes it’s a given that Citizens United would need to be overturned for any of this to happen.
I think you can just outlaw paying someone to do this, not the lobbying itself, no?
I still miss the visualzers.
That’s one of the longest outages I’ve ever seen from a cloud company.
Tl;dr?
Yeah I could see it for very young babies where you may need to change things every few months. But after 2-3 years old I don’t see it making sense.
36 GBP a month for 10 items of kids clothes? That’s 432 GBP a year. I’d think you could easily buy many more than 10 items of clothes for that amount and other than kids under 3 I don’t think you’d need to replace them more than annually.
I had completely forgotten that it was Microsoft that killed Nokia.
Fair point.
If you read the article, it’s not a statement with entirely no merit.
The engineers prioritized an algorithm which is far more likely to be useful in real world scenarios where you keep trying to cram a bunch of stuff in the frunk and close it (who hasn’t done this?) rather than the edge case of repeatedly testing it with vegetables until you stick your finger in it.
Anyway, I suppose it’s back to the drawing board.
I’m pretty sure the similar exists in other places too. You could host it in AWS in China or Bahrain and save yourself a bunch of risk.
