I mean, a lot of TV has murders in it. There is a huge market for showing realistic murder.

But I get the feeling your saying that there isn’t a huge market for showing real people dying realistically without their permission. But that’s more a technicality. The question is, is the content or the production of the content illegal. If it’s not a real person, who is the victim of the crime.

It’s weird cause technically adaptive traffic patterns are trained using tools like reinforcement learning, which is technically AI, however it’s the broad term AI and not GenAI.

I mean that’s the same thing with AI generated content. It’s all trained on a wide range of real people, how do you know what’s generated isn’t depicting an underage person, which is why laws like this are really dangerous.

That’s the same as saying we shouldn’t be able to make videos with murder in them because there is no way to tell if they’re real or not.

Plex and plexamp is the best music hosting setup I’ve found too. Users can have their own playlist and there is some smart playlist generation.

They also had (maybe still have) tidal integration.

However, you’ll still be relying on other services (probs spotify/etc.) to find new things.

It would also be the most effective way to stem illegal immigration. If illegal immigrants couldn’t find jobs there would be a lot less reason to come here.

Not to mention it’s going right to the source. If you find one illegal employer, it would be equivelant to finding 10-100s of illegal immigrants.

This is the issue with current public discourse though. AI has become shorthand for the current GenAI hypecycle, meaning for many AI has become a subset of ML.

LLMs are deep learning models that were developed off of multi-head attention/transformer layers. They are absolutely Machine Learning as they use a blend of supervised and unsupervised training (plus some reinforcement learning with some recent developments like DeepSeek).

Can’t wait to find out it was just a guy in a suit.

Working in the field I think there is two things AI will make an impact on:

• Going after low skill white collar work (basically further automation of semi-skilled labor)
• Being an excuse to undercut high-skill white collar labor wages.

However, I suspect we’ll get a lot of the issues we saw with “outsourcing” where the end result is businesses pursuing cheaper outputs without concern for quality.

Yeah, if anything “Falcon and the Winter Soldier” just cemented this movie as mediocre at best. Every other character in that show was more interesting than Flacon. And obviously it’s not his fault, the writing just isn’t building falcon as the next Captain America.

It already exists, but the sands of time Metroidvania “Lost Crowns” was surprisingly good.

Thanks, OP seemed more curious about the technical aspects than just the absurdity of the comment (since pretty much every business uses SQL) so hoped a more technical explanation might be appreciated.

Sure, basically any time you have a many-to-many relationship you’ll have to repeat keys multiple times. Think students taking courses. You’d have a students table and a courses table, but the relationship is many students take many courses. So you’d want a third table for lookups where each row is [student_id, course_id].

This stackoverflow post has a similar example with authors and books - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13970628/how-do-i-model-a-many-to-many-relation-in-sql-server#13970688

If SSNs are used as a primary key (a unique identifier for a row of data) then they’d have to be duplicated to be able to merge data together.

However, even if they aren’t using ssn as an identifier as it’s sensitive information. It’s not uncommon to repeat data either for speed/performance sake, simplicity in table design, it’s in a lookup table, or you have disconnected tables.

Having a value repeated doesn’t tell you anything about fraud risk, efficency, or really anything. Using it as the primary piece of evidence for a claim isn’t a strong arguement.

Thats fair, it’s a bit nerve racking (especially right now with everything going on). If you’ve got a good interest rate on the account then you’re at least not loosing too much value, but the main reason to invest is that money looses value over time (due to things like inflation).

Not a fiduciary or anything like that, but double check your at least getting at least 3% on your savings accounts, otherwise you’re basically throwing money away.

So what do you invest in then? It feels really hard to find any opportunities outside of the stock market.

People dying at the start of a zombie apocalypse is standard fair at this point. Finding someone in a post apocalyptic world based only on their name years later in a world where everyone is just barely surviving was a bit ridiculous.

It felt a bit like the inverse of Game of Thrones (where it felt like anyone could die), the second part decided this person must die.

I just couldn’t get into part 2 and dropped it after the Joel scene. It just felt so over the top in trying to be depressing and I didn’t feel like slogging through a game that would twist the narrative just for the shock value.

Part one had moments of “everything that can go wrong will go wrong”, but part 2 felt like it jumped the shark (which felt more validated after reading the synopsis online).

I think the core takeaway is your shouldn’t outsource core capabilities. If the code is that critical to your bottomline, pay for quality (which usually means no contractors - local or not).

If you outsource to other developers or AI it means most likely they will care less and/or someone else can just as easily come along and do it too.
