Snapping half the population just resets us to the 1970's. We’d be facing the exact same problems in a few decades.

Ahh good ol Traction Park.
You must not read much of Matt’s stuff. These are perfectly average Matt Novak takes. Some of what he writes is true, but that’s never his goal. I’ve never read a Novak article that was 100% factually accurate (50% seems about the ceiling) and not utterly dripping with bias. He’s basically the liberal Donald Trump in…
Yeah that one bothered me too.
As someone who flies solely for the utility of it and couldn’t even name one model of plane I’ve flown on in the last ten years, I’ve never thought of a plane as beautiful. They’re cigar shaped cattle cars that make my throat and ears hurt.
Your finance guy is a dullard if that’s his reason. You can just protect the cells and lock the workbook. Put a good strong password on that and you have a fully functioning document that no one can see formulas on.
Magnetic tape is still very much alive for long term server backups, but the audio cassette is dead. The Ticonderoga pencil lost one of its primary reasons for existing as a result.
So you’re saying the system is working as designed by a bunch of rich, old, white guys who didn’t want to pay taxes? Shocking!
OTC vitamins too. Hell, you can lose a whole year for your third offense of eating a bitter orange. Busting up a three year old and/or his mother is far more forgivable.
I wish we had Next Gen stats back then so we could see how many yards he actually ran, rather than just how many he gained. It was not uncommon for him to run 40+ yards for a two yard gain.
I totally missed ThinkGeek closing. How could that happen!? I ordered so much..uh..back in..oh, I see. Still sad.
The issue comes in where it’s medically impossible for some small percentage of people to get vaccinated. Herd immunity occurs around 95% vaccinated, which would help the .05% who legit can’t get vaccines to never get exposed to the disease. With vaccination rates dropping, those few are at greater risk.
“This means that machines can teach themselves to solve complex problems independently of human supervision.”
Eventually, the cost of rebuilding will exceed the cost of fixing the problem. A generation of rich white people’s deaths later, things will change. I have great hope for humanity; I just won’t live to see it realized.
We’ve had reactor designs that are simply incapable of undergoing meltdowns for decades. Reactors can be designed with a wide underlying empty cavity that if breached due to failure would drain the reactor and diffuse the material to the point where nuclear fission would stop naturally.
Ironic - reading this because I just finished up a UiPath training module at work but had 5 minutes to kill before heading home.
“Rekognition, falsely matched 28 members of Congress with criminal mugshots.“ Provided it also matched roughly 200 with criminal mugshots correctly, then it’s working well enough.
I thought that was Voyager 6, thought lost in a black hole.
J’onn did Kara Zor-El too for the Supergirl franchise. May as well make it a triad.
