And who are you to say if the machine's output (ie, mindset) is to be trusted?
Machines are much less prone to bias than humans, that's for sure.
We just don't give a shit.
Not that many people care about the environment.
Unfortunately I agree with you. Very few people in the US even care about Israel/Palestine.
I don't know how the sentiment is in Europe, though.
Parent is talking about far-infrared (ie, thermal) sensors. Many car models have high-resolution thermal sensors.
Blacklist: Broader, usually applied to products and companies. China blacklisted Facebook. The US blacklisted Huawei.
Unfortunately it's not possible.
Nearly everyone on HN would rather invest in a total stock market index fund, simply because it gives better returns. How much different? Approximately 1% more.
So there you have it. People will sell out for 1% of their portfolio. Myself included.
Only in your own thoughts and dreams (for now). You're not allowed to outrage on Weibo or WeChat. Is this correct?
> And Costa Rica?
> And most individual countries in Europe?
All of these countries, for practical purposes, do not exist.
They do not have influence on the world stage. They may as well be China, considering how easy these countries will bend to Chinese money.
So either you develop the surveillance tech, or you must look the other way when China develops it. If you disagree, your economy will be ruined.
When I visited the Stanford campus recently, it seemed like many students had the opposite of debt: massive savings indicated by personal electric scooters, Mercedes/Tesla/BMW/Audi in the student parking lots, combined with several FANG internships, it's fairly common for a CS undergrad to have $100K+ in savings when they graduate.
Whether it's family money or not, debt doesn't seem to be the big of a problem for these top students.
Rich or poor, asshole or not asshole: No one is entitled to live anywhere.
There is only a market price. That's all.
If you want rent control, I'm saying you should go elsewhere.
If you are against rent control, my comment did not imply what you should or shouldn't do.
Why do we need a better solution than "tough shit"?
Not everyone is entitled to live where they want. If you want that, try Europe.
Correct.
On top of that, many people on HN, aware of the privacy implications, continue to have a Google Home / Alexa in their homes. Myself included.
Sadly, I (and many people) simply don't care about privacy. The probability/expected negatives of surveillance abuse is far less than the benefit of being able to turn my lights on and off with my voice.
The US will for sure become like China in 10-20 years, with regards to surveillance.
Pixel 3 user here. I pay $30/month on average.
What on Earth are you torrenting on your phone? I've never used more than 5 GB data in a month. Just wait till you're back on wifi before watching YouTube...
