Really a non sequitur. you could have one course “healthy use of new technology” and ban it for the rest of the school day for distraction-free learning.

thanks for the explanation. I misunderstood the statement. makes more sense that it makes fingerprinting harder.

what does that even mean? what aspect is more generic that could be used for fingerprinting?

Thanks for clarifying.

For the record, I think this mechanism is indeed far reaching, simply because the current criterion of “age” is arbitrary in the proposed mechanism.

Not sure if the “just education” part is realistic, though. The whole point is that children cannot make responsible decisions like adults can. We accept that for driving, sex, drugs and weapons.

Not sure that’s necessarily true. I don’t see why it couldn’t work like this:

1. request personal token from authority. it works similar to a certificate chain, your token is derived from a central certificate
2. you store your token locally
3. you visit an age-restricted website. you send your token (or a challenge encrypted with that token) back to the website
4. the website verifies your token with the certificate from the authority, (like how literal Certificate Authorities work) . the CA doesn’t know when or why your token was used.

(fwiw I am sure governments will try their best to make this process less private)

wdym? in general? on the internet?

bc that’s a hard disagree from my side as a blanket statement

of course, but the OP said independent

I highly doubt that. how would that even work? a third-party to the publisher would have to check every statement before the issue goes to print. I can’t imagine this happening for anything that is not research papers or official reports.

but I happy to learn something new.

in what world would independent fact checking down to the level of individual quotes be feasible for an online magazine? you can’t be serious.

Believe it or not, this is the first time for me being suspected a troll, but I start to see the appeal when people are getting so worked up while being so far off the mark.

Sorry to disappoint that I am still on the loose. Then again prison is probably better than doing one more D-FMEA.

I was sure this would happen, I was quite facetitious. OP’s blanket statement just rubbed me the wrong way.

That’s why unit and integration tests shouldn’t be written by Copilot.

Firewalled VM with no personal or professional data on it. So no.

Because i want to work on meaningful things that benefit people directly.

Because i want to unterstand the capabilities and limitations of openclaw-like agents. LLMs aren’t going away, better be proactive and learn what the hype is about.

I program medical devices for a living and I have openclaw and nanobot running at home. AMA.

What makes you say this?

Well crafted counter argument

The thing with being cocky is, if you are wrong it makes you look like an even bigger asshole

The program uses a form of attention network, a deep learning technique that focuses on having the AI identify parts of a larger problem, then piece it together to obtain the overall solution.

You can save your breath, I am with you that corporations try to fuck us over at every turn. If you try to not see a villain in someone disagreeing with you, you could’ve seen that from the beginning.

There is also no need to put words in my mouth what my argument was, because it is really simple. The statement “I paid for it therefore I own it” is as false as “if I don’t own it after buying, then there is no such thing as piracy”. The question is whether or not games are a service.

I am probably as pissed off about the hyper-capitalistic encroachment as you are. you should try to not let your emotions impact your reasoning though.
