I guess Florida ran out of Carl Hiaasen YA protagonists to keep that shit at bay.

Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I'm gonna be pretty upset.

I already don't trust AI, there's no way I'd want it to be the arbiter of potentially critical job-related information in a workplace. For probably less money than licensing and running an AI, a company could just hire a stenographer to sit in meetings all day, take notes, and send those notes to concerned parties. Better yet, why not get certain people to send info directly via email, instead of scheduling a bunch a pointless meetings. How's that for innovation

Did nobody else's CS department require a bunch of linear algebra courses? A vector is an element of vector space.

I'm glad they're doing this now, but it really should've been done 5 years ago. Ideally, it should've been done even before that.

The whole point of the FAA is to make the industry operate in such a way that failures like these are ruled out preemptively. The nature of aviation doesn't really allow for things to fail in a safe way.

Time to pull out that electoral reform idea you've had in your back pocket for the last 8 years.

Seriously, if there was ever a time for something like that, it's now. The CPC seems poised to take a landslide victory in the next election. We might be able to avoid that looming disaster by making a vote against Trudeau not equate to a vote for polievre.

If you go to P and check enough doors, you might be able to find one that proves you've been on NP this whole time.

You wasted 3 hours of your life so far lol

But yeah. I find the most mysterious and time-consuming of problems are usually caused by a very minor detail that is so obvious it gets overlooked immediately.

And even if you know that's probably the case, sometimes your brain will just discard information that isn't consistent with its assumed reality, and it tells you the piece of code you just read is fine when it's obviously not.

Troubleshooting/debugging is fun.

So they found almost as many guns as a typical American household and like, a calendar written in Arabic? Yeah, they should definitely keep looking. I'm sure the weapons of mass destruction are in there somewhere. /s

You don’t have to vote, don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.

Why does it sound like he's got a mountain of fake ballots sitting in a warehouse that he's gonna drop from a blimp or some shit.

Lmao when you're trying to turn your company into a bloodsucking vampire but you forgot that long ago, you told your lawyer to chain the coffin in case this very thing happened.
