you say the lions share of murders are committed by drug gangs, but that’s ignoring the majority of gun injuries are self inflicted.

And while it was written into the constitution it was amended into the constitution, and like the 21st which repealed the 18th, could be amended out again.

you also say there are 5x defensive Gun owners. This is a made up statistic - there is no formal definition of a defensive gun owner, there is no way to shoot a gun defensively.

While it may take time - a few generations - maybe even a dozen generations - to disarm the majority of households, it’s possible.

who are you disarming

the majority of gun owners own guns for fun/sport. So while, yes, it is sad to ruin fun, it’s also sad to have children killed.

Finally, you don’t have to ban all guns, you could keep say, bolt action rifles and single barrel shotguns - where sports and hunting could still continue. This wouldn’t solve all the problems but it might have saved lives multiplicatively in mass shootings.

Should we ban [cars]

I mean, disregarding the feasibility, political polularity and media optics of it, for the continuation of earths ecosystem… probably yeah

1987 smoking banned in London public transport following the deaths of 31 people in a fire

2005 banned in nationwide public transport

2008 banned in enclosed public spaces

2018 banned in prisons

I’m curious do you think they’re all stupid or just this one? Isn’t this one just an extension of “please don’t smoke directly in front of the hospital doors” for other public places?

What about the proposed plans to raise the smoking age year on year every year?

I bet within a decade they pivot to barely any settings at all, claiming the released experience is the only experience you’ll ever need.

considering that no one who isn’t involved in the creation of them is talking about quantum computing in regards to quarterly profits or posting about it on LinkedIn trying to score a lead, it may be as far left on the chart as possible.

she crashed the economy by saying she was going to reduce taxes on the rich, so much so the bank of England had to step-in to shore up bonds.

I would also add that you need to explain out-of-home steps, too.

I’m not an idiot but I didn’t go to school for compsci or similar and I don’t do it as a job. So frequently the instructions will go

• Get your IP address by entering this command
• Type your IP address in this line
• Now forward any chosen port to your proxy of choice and don’t forget to check your firewall settings!

My sibling in Eris, most people dont know any of those words.

I’m just being a silly billy it’s not directed at you.

It’s more like “ah if only there was a simple solution that could’ve been used.”

All images are hosted somewhere, I would consider an intern fresh out of college know how to correctly add an image to an email, or at least only be told once if somehow they had never seen this before.

yeah it uses this really neat semantic rendering programming language for serving structured documents across servers

It’s a bit tricky, but anyone with at least a Masters in CompSci should be able to parse some of it enough to get the gist. Bear in mind that the “source” is abbreviated to src, and “image” similarly. The rest is coding that gives the computer instructions, you’ll also need to replace FILENAME in the code with the actual filename. It goes like this

<img src="FILENAME" /> 

Let me know if I can explain it more clearly.

.top is cheap right now and much easier to make into a phrase

it can give you other options too.

I went through a phase of making the ai robot agree with me that it was the “email flange” that was causing my issue before transferring me to an operator.

maybe, but also I visited one at the computing museum in Georgia. More pcs should have a communal bench attached

I am commenting this from a terrible strip club with friends who dragged me here. I wish I was in your position.

first one isn’t free

second one you have to migrate posts using ctrl+c ctrl+v and then hand type the publish date

third one you have to already have built your own SQL database

Promotions haven’t been worth it for 30 years. Most people stick around cuz it’s a PITA getting a new job

Similarly, my current job (now ending as they want to end remote work and I don’t want to move to a desert in a very red/religious area)- I guided them out of “block chain for supply chain” (lmao it’s cringe to even say that now) into “AI for productivity automation”

I give it 3 years max before all mentions of AI are scrubbed from the home page

He’s ex-C-suite of IBM and Macy’s I’m sure he’s fine.

that is to illustrate the vastness of infinity not the efficacy of monkeys

assuming one infinite monkey:

sonnet 18 has 592 characters- or a chance of 4.3x10^-848

10 trillion is ^-13 for reference.

And the universe is not even 14 billion years old.

And the ^-848 was 14 lines, a onehundredth of a single percent of the complete works.

However, it’s infinite monkeys, so the time it would take is effectively how every long it takes for one monkey to type that many lines. A few days? A week? In an infinite monkey cage it’s done at the first attempt: that’s the size of infinity.

All that to say, to replace that in power, if you converted all the mass in the universe to energy, and all the time until it’s heat death and could combine them into one machine: probably not enough to clear Titus Andronicus.

Fair, I thought they all got recalled but I guess they’re back. but I’d also counter that Waymo is extremely limited about where it can operate - roughly 10 miles max - which, relevant to my original point was entirely hand-mapped and calibrated by human operators, and the rides are monitored and directed by a control center responding in real-time to the car’s feedback.

Like my printing press example - it still takes a large human team to operate the “self” - driving car.

the comment I originally replied to claimed AI will design the autonomous machines.

It will not. It will facilitate some of the research done by humans to aid in the designing of willfully human operated machinery.

To my knowledge the only autonomous machine that exists is a roomba, which moves blindly around until it physically strikes an object, rotates a random degree and continues in a new direction until it hits something else.

Even then, it is controlled with an app and on more expensive models, some boundary setting.

It is extremely generous to call that “autonomy.”
