Honestly your reaction and response are completely understandable from where I stand.

I don’t disagree with your argument, but I am curious. Where does your difficulty with the video primarily reside at?

  • The ability to delay the explosion to guarantee success (intelligent/controllable)?
  • The low-yield explosion, somewhere between hand-grenade and 40mm, which may be more likely to maim than kill on impact?
  • The low cost and ease of operation which threatens uncovered infantry?

I can’t imagine the trauma of surviving an attack from one of these. The fear that something might fly in at any moment to chase you around to kill you would be more terrifying than being shot at. Maybe you could defend against it with a shotgun, but if the lower cost meant an adversary can send multiple at each soldier, then it becomes a game of numbers where the soldier is likely to be overwhelmed. Not a future I’d want to witness.

So somehow our representatives are fine with auto-enrollment of citizens for the draft, but a number of them oppose auto-enrollment for voting?

I’m worried about the security of this. However looking past that and simply observing it as an implementation of AI, this is an idea that I think is actually a beneficial use. Protecting the elderly against fraud/scams is a major issue which gets increasingly complex as scammers improve their methods. Using AI to detect scams in calls could be helpful in protecting the elderly.

But before rolling it out, I would want to see proof of its efficiency through careful studies. Hell, incentivize Google to share the model with the government and other businesses so it can be improved upon. Fund it as a grant/program so smaller teams/companies can contribute and innovate.

I think it would’ve been funny if the title was “StackOverflow contributors are revolting” and the comment was “a little more than usual.”

But hey, gotta get whatever amount of humor in while you can.

Infinite rare fish

They’d no longer be considered “rare” then, right? Or can only I eat/keep them?

Night light

Could be good or bad. Is this a night light in just one specific room? Is it a flashlight I always have on me to use as needed? Is it a glowing orb that floats around me that I can’t control?

lol, I was alluding more towards the shaming that used to go on towards husbands who wanted sex more often than their wives and the many publications/therapists who made it seem like men were asking for too much

“Well Sister Sheryl, are you and your husband still sleeping in different beds as you tell him to ‘bridle his passions’?”

Yup. And the only way to get them to stop is to embarrass them.

“So, when are you planning on having kids?”

“I dunno, maybe when I’m no longer infertile.”
