Great idea and just a note to anyone doing this (as I just did) - Bloomberg will send a confirmation code to the email which you have to get out of the feed. Took a few minutes, but it worked!
As a Vegas local I'll say the criticism evolved into "I'm never riding in that death trap after I found out how they skirted fire department approvals".
There is as yet no fire department vehicle that can enter the tunnel. And from here [1]
"Evacuation procedure basically consist of driving the car out of the tunnel, via the next station. If evacuation must be made in the opposite direction, the manual says the driver must await instructions from the OCC, as they are not generally permitted to drive in reverse."
Footnote 20: However, maintaining lawful status in a dual intent nonimmigrant category is not sufficient, on its own, to warrant a favorable exercise of discretion
There is one difference between first responders/doctors and the other classes (and the moderators under discussion here)
First responders/doctors/CPS investigators see the worst but they also have days where they make a difference. Save a life or multiple lives. I'm sure it's a huge part of what makes the job bearable, and to some meaningful.
I'm not discounting your point about high rates of suicide either. If anything, when you take away any good days, you're left, as a content moderator, with just seeing the worst of the world day in, day out, with nothing to make it meaningful. I'd suggest that's something we as a society should not tolerate as being an acceptable trade for the ability to share cat photos.
The tape copy protection article is also terrible with nonsense like this "A copy of a Novaload tape made on a HiFi deck produced a normal-speed recording with the correct audio signal but which, when loaded on a C64, produced garbage — because the Kernal's standard tape decoder couldn't interpret the turbo encoding"
Thousands of kids in the playground with access to a tape-to-tape deck (which made Alan Sugar his fortune for Amstrad) would disagree. And the reason given is just plain wrong.
OpenAI have made this claim and maybe it is with API pay-per-use (there's also good evidence eveb that is not if you dive into how much a rack of B200s cost to operate), but I'd be very sceptical that the free, $20 or $200 a month plans are profitable.
Then the questions are if the market will bear the real cost and if so how competitive OpenAI are with Google when Google can do what Microsoft did to Netscape and subsidize inference for far longer than OpenAI can.
Nope. The only "all indications" are that they say so. They may be making a profit on API usage, but even that is very suspect - compare against how much it actually costs to rent a rack of B200s from Microsoft. But for the millions of people using Codex/Claude Code/Copilot, the costs of $20-$30-$200 clearly don't compare to the actual cost of inference.
I thought that too, but the map for the UK is very weird - there is no direct connection between what looks like Birmingham and what looks like Manchester or anywhere in the North West of England. So, no West Coast Main Line? Instead they have the rail line veering off towards the peak district.
I don't know whether they're decades out of date or just plain wrong - the West Coast Main Line was "opened between 1837 and 1881" according to Wikipedia.
I would say normalizing armed law enforcement wearing masks and refusing to provide any ID is utterly bad for the COUNTRY.
Or maybe it's only bad for the people who get assaulted or shot by them and have no way of recourse. Let's hope that's not you, eh?
I got shudders just re-reading it when I came across:
'“It’s too late to vid your wife,” the fasrad said. “There are
three emergency-rockets in the stern; if you want, I’ll fire them
off in the hope of attracting a passing military transport.”'
No one is forcing parents to vaccinate your kids. It's just that in sane societies we say you can't use a public school if you're not vaccinated and otherwise healthy.
A moment's thought will tell you that it's to protect kids that are at risk from infectious diseases (e.g. immunocompromised cancer patients) that cannot be vaccinated.
So most people would agree that it's unfair that a cancer patient cannot attend a public school, through no fault of their own, because a parent wants their healthy kid to attend the school unvaccinated. We balance the rules accordingly.
The point is not that people were wrong but they were wrong because they had knee-jerk, lazy takes that should be disparaged.
I also know that the some of the people making these kind of takes have already pivoted to another knee-jerk, lazy take along the lines of "well, he ripped off rich people".
I'd actually appreciate it if anybody who made the original statements about Democrats not prosecuting SBF would come on and admit they were wrong.
