I think the better solution is if the company is so important that it needs to be bailed out, then should just get nationalized when it fails.
Our money goes towards bailing them out, but the public owns it after that. The shareholders that ran it into the ground shouldn't get to keep it.
I thought James Bond is special though? The family still gets to approve the script, so the issue is that Amazon wants to milk it with a crap story, and the family says no this isn't good enough.
Probably liability issues. Some customer doesn't see it, steps on it, and face plants into the floor then they get sued.
From an insurance perspective these drugs are one of the largest reasons for premium increases in the last couple of years. The high cost combined with the number of Americans that medically qualify to get these covered (usually requirements are just high BMI or other diabetes risks) has increased insurance costs considerably.
So if they are trying to lower insurance premiums (or keep them in check at least) this is a good way to do it.
From a Medicare perspective losing weight is one of the best preventative things you can do for long term health, so getting these covered by Medicare could easily translate to long term savings.
"Tech companies don't care that students use calculators to cheat"
AI is just a tool like a calculator. No company cares about their employees beyond getting work out of them. If a potential employee shows that they can use the tools at their disposal to get the job done then why would they care?
I think they worded that backwards and are referring to the adage (or maybe that is what the banks go off of?) that your loan shouldn't be for more than 3x your income. So if you make 80k per year you can generally afford a $240k house.
Going above that 3x means too much of your income goes to paying for the house and you don't have enough for other living expenses+maintaining the house.
The biggest question is going to be will the AI be able to run locally or will they use it as an excuse to turn the game into a subscription.
I can see it now... "The game needs to make calls to OpenAI that we have to pay for to generate dialog so we need to charge by the month for the game"
They will finally have an excuse to turn single player games into subscriptions as well.
Using AI in games isn't about AI coding. Using AI to code games is likely already in almost every studio.
When they say AI in games that means AI artwork, voice lines, environments, etc.
i.e. imagine NPCs that change their voice lines based on recent events like recently completed missions, or your player looks/equipment/etc. With AI you don't have to pre-record a near infinite amount of voice lines they can be generated on the fly.
It's not like they want to punish you for paying off your car.
The reality is that a high percentage of the population loads up on more debt after paying off current debts, so the algorithm reflects that. Usually those points come back after a couple of months.
Actually I believe host networking would be the one case where this isn't an issue. Docker isn't adding iptables rules to do NAT masquerading because there is no IP forwarding being done.
When you tell docker to expose a port you can tell it to bind to loopback and this isn't an issue.
I always see this argument but I really don't want anything plugged into anything as important as the USB-C port while the phone is in my pocket.
3.5 plugs are rather short outside of the phone (at least for headphones with 90deg plugs) to minimize leverage that you put on the port. Being able to rotate also means less stress on the port as well.
The USB-C adapters are pretty short, but lack the rotation. I have replaced USB-C ports in dozens of Nintendo Switches and other devices, it is pretty clear they aren't designed to take much stress.
Long story short if anything happens I would much rather have the 3.5mm pin stuck in a headphone jack than breaking the USB-C port and making it so my phone is a brick.
Yeah looks like you are right. Appears that they just got control of it in Feb.
