"Battle-tested" == "Will definitely blow up schoolchildren if given the chance."

It can be multiple reasons. And don't forget that malicious actors love hiding behind Hanlon's.

my coworkers would know almost immediately if i did that.

The same would happen if you were replaced by any random human.

Is there any actual proof of this? Everything suggests it's a sincerely held belief and there's been no whistleblowers claiming otherwise. "Since before they could add 1+1" works against your argument because the models had no commercial value, no guarantee they would ever have commercial value, and plotting regulatory capture was about as serious an idea as regulatory capture of antimatter engines.

Code can exist without vulnerabilities. Verifiable proof exists. It is hard, but it is possible.

That said, sure, it had a fraction of the features back then, and only a fraction of the world population was connected to the internet.

And the world was better for it. Connectivity and internet are not inherent goods. They can be used for good purposes but it is hard to argue that has been the mean.

Valve had to be dragged kicking and screaming by Australia just to provide the basic fundamental right of refunds.

Large corporations are not your friend. They are the enemy; they vary only in type and depth of diabolicalness.

The natural next question... where is Paljor?

Reddit doesn't even require an email address to make an account. You can just leave the email field blank.

The what?

Was something I said unclear?

The purpose was to clarify that the obstacles to constructing modern nuclear weapons is not accurately characterized as "99%" fuel-related. Even if a group were to obtain a stockpile of ready HEU and plutonium-239, there is knowledge they simply will not have because they did not spend a trillion USD testing different bomb configurations last century. The difference in yield is two orders of magnitude.

True for fission bombs. Less true for fusion bombs. The principal makeup and manufacturing of fusion device parts like tampers are still unknown to the public. Having a supply of HEU does not tell you how to assemble a functional triple stage device or how to utilize tritium, an isotope that measurably decreases in purity by the day.

But the extension works, not "collapses down badly."

running 5-year-old versions of stuff with tons of known security flaws

No one in this thread proposed that, or anything that could be reasonably assumed to have meant that.

There's an accelerating population crisis. Who would have motive to push birth rates lower than they even are, and how would they "push them"?

Countless medications have <16% efficacy rate.

Have you never worked in customer service?

It is often both.

How is any of that making humanity better? How is any of that making the world a better place for us and our children to live in?

Google has enough metadata to graph and deduce which are scams.

Who said anything about reddit?

Yes, they do. Advertising works. "Free with ads" isn't really free because on average you'll end up spending more money than you would otherwise. You're also paying more than if it was a subscription because the producer has to create both the product and also advertise it.

Different materials and dyes have different dialectical properties. These examples are probably confabulation but I'm sure it's possible in principle.

Gun ownership is a protected constitutional right and cocaine is a popular drug. May but be connected.

Don't you need to reveal the facts in criminal court? Right to see the evidence against you and all that.

Daydreaming and singing to yourself is not entertaining.

This is such a case study of a HN comment.

You're right, sweeping laws should be passed that widely restrict when and where cameras are legal and how they can be used.

Or just use an open source email client.

I would expect their own apps to be open source, are they not?

The human optic nerve is actually closer to 5-10 megabits per second per eye. The brain does much with very little.

So, yes?
