A charmed life he lead/leads. If this had been I, there is no telling what might have happened, including dire consequences. Just a matter of luck.

Dear Folks, I am not worried about AI. What... Me worry? But I am old, and some of you are young, or know people who are young. Also, has AI now just about totaled the Internet with machine-produced content? And, exactly how much of the Internet we can access on search engines, like Google, is produced not by humans but by machines? Well, let's see: a. What is the near-term future of AI? b. Is AI progress, improvements in models, etc., slowing down or speeding up? Here is a nice little vid which speaks to these very questions. Yes. Nice vid, for sure. I know that most of you will like it. Also, by this time next year, a much higher percentage of what we see on the internet will be machine-made. Hope you are OK with that. Best regards, Gamma

How much will the fine be? Or, does he just pay the usual maximum, which is quite low.

Early-onset Dementia, perhaps?

Nerves of Steel.

Seems to me that Big-Time changes are in the air. Good! Hope they are forced to view Reefer Madness, while in detention.

You mean like corporations which relocate to avoid paying taxes?

If the world wishes peace in the area, then the sensible solution is to relocate the people living in "Israel" on a voluntary basis to places like the USA. Let's do for the people living in Israel what Trump is offering the people of Gaza. Trump is off his rocker if he thinks relocating the people of Gaza makes sense.

I would not wish to live in any place where voters voted for Harris. I think they should terminate the lot of them....unless....they can prove that they are smart and that they work hard for the money they are paid. Harris is someone who has proved to be a role model for wasting money and time. She takes too much time to utter anything of meaning. Would have been a true tragedy if Harris...because....just think of the upward spiral of debt...continuing. What a nitwit.

By GEEK, I did not mean Elon. I was not referring to Musk. I was pointing out that the guy doing the analysis in the video is the Geek. He usually is correct. But this time, maybe not.

Although no employee ever enjoys this kind of thing...It does make perfect sense. Everyone must justify the value of work or the value of research. This is why research proposals must be submitted and approved. At first, it seemed quite odd, Elon's request I mean. However, it is not so odd when looking at the marketplace. Apparently, the request was a very easy one, and not time-consuming. So then, why the uproar? And why the refusal to comply with the request?

But, is the GEEK wrong this time? Does Musk lack empathy? And, is the request for supporting evidence for work done ill-planned, even foolish? The Geek says Elon is wrong. Yet, commentors disagree...

That would be amazing. But is this even legally possible, or physically practicable, with so many individuals in question? Certainly there must be better ways of verifying what they were doing. And, is there actually as much fraud as some seem to suspect? Maybe yes, and perhaps not quite.

Nothing to do with inner monologue, of course. Still, nice of you to add your inner child here.

You want to rehash this old stuff for how many more years?

I think you got it ass-backwards. The point is, it is GAME ON to try to observe the steps taken by an AI to cough up whatever it is that it coughs up. Therefore, one can ask the AI to list these steps, as can easily be done with DeepSeek, for example. But this is different from training the AI to "think before responding", from the beginning. I am sure that you understand the distinction: One is not teaching it to think before responding. Instead, one is asking for the steps taken to reach any given output. And, if you call this "reasoning", then...OK. But, you got it ass-backwards, anyway.

Yet another one, run amok....

He is placing power or embarrassment before world order? Which is it? Power? Or... Embarrassment? Let's make up our minds here.

Why allow him to catch a train when... Would it not be far better to have him...just... Run out on a rail? Ouch! Trump is a real comedian.

Dear Folks, Speaking of nostalgia, is there anyone here old enough to recall the wonderful old days of Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport during its glory days? Those were the days when one could completely Tank-Up at Kai Tak, and fly, completely drunk, out of Hong Kong to almost any major city in the world. That airport, Kai Tak, was a jewel within the jewel of Hong Kong. Nobody cared how drunk one might have been, just as long as one was not falling-down drunk, and provided one was polite, without having offended anyone. If one were really drunk and weaving a bit, this was still considered to be fairly normal behavior. Neigh!, it was expected if one drank like a horse. This is why I hate to fly in modern times. By comparison, in order to have really enjoyed one’s flight out of cities like Hong Kong, one, in ancient times, needed to start with a dozen drinks at several good bars at Kai Tak airport, and then to have continued on with two bottles of champagne, once seated comfortably aboard one’s flight. Those were the days when the stewards and stewardesses would serve any well-dressed passenger without restraint. They did not care. And, if one were unable to disembark the aircraft upon reaching the destination, they would just order a wheelchair, and think none-the-less of the passenger. Utter bliss and frivolity, at least for me, at Kai Tak. And, as I recall, I was not the only one. Sometimes, one just needs to let one’s hair down, and Kai Tak once was the place to do so. Sadly, those Kai Tak days are now over. And, I know you will recall that wonderful flooring of the airport, with the hard-rubber bubbles (dimples), which made vibrating sounds as you pushed your luggage cart back and forth, from bar to bar. Those bars were excellent with perfect decor and solicitous bartenders. They would pour drink after drink, no matter how sloshed one became. And, if you could walk or crawl to the gate, then you were fit to fly. Nobody was rowdy, back then, no matter how much alcohol had been consumed. And so, nobody feared the frequently-drunken frequent-flyer. Well, any good stories to tell about Kai Tak? And, I do NOT mean stories about the approach, or turning on final, or lining up with the runway. Those stories have already been told, and re-told. I have a story to tell, but you first, please. Sometimes, I just get so sick of our modern world in which any type of interesting behavior is banned. Or, they put you in cuffs and cart you off to the lock-up, for doing almost nothing at all. Fortunately, I am now too old to have fun like that. And, as well, I choose to no longer fly to Hong Kong… Now that the communists have reclaimed the colony. Regards, Gamma Note: Those were the days. The very-good old days. Note2: They have taken all the fun out of flying, these days. No longer any point in flying, obviously. Note3: I seem to clearly recall that China Airlines (Taiwan) would give us, in business class, flying out of Hong Kong, unlimited champagne, quality wine, and cheese. But you had to drink and eat fast. The flight was just too short in duration. Yes, it was entirely possible to drink two bottles of champagne, and eat quite a bit of expensive European cheese, on that short flight. When trying this, though, it was a must to, no matter how drunk, always be polite. No Way!...do they offer this same service…now! How I miss those great days of ….. FREEDOM…..!!!! That, my friends…was true freedom, freedom which we have not now, these days of prudery and citizen-arrest. Freedom: Poor old Richie Havens knew Nothing about Freedom, IMHO…and neither did the hippies…He was not free, free to fly the way Man was intended to fly.

Why are they so white in color, though? Good price, I think. Must be due to low labor cost. 500 grams for Bt.190 is cheaper than canned tuna. Will try!

Fortunately, we were just-barely spared the dumbest presidency in history... The presidency of Harris. Would you prefer her over Trump? Yes? No? You dare not say. You dare not say what you know to be true.

Yes. They are the worst offenders. Just like Bob: As this writer states correctly, Bob should be kicked out of the country.... https://www.vivathematadors.com/2014/3/19/5526368/bob-seger-is-the-worst Some songs are good. Others are embarrassing.

I have not received a dime from the gov, so far. I do not expect to...ever. So, if you do as i do, then... No worries...ever.
