Absolutely. With code (and I suppose it's of other logical truths) it's easier because you can ask it to write a test for the code, though the test may be invalid so you have to check that. With arbitrary facts, I usually ask "is that true?" To have it check itself. Sometimes it just gets into a loop of lies, but other times it actually does tell the truth.
asking them factual questions is a bad idea
This is a crucial point that everybody should make sure their non-techie friends understand. AI is not good at facts. AI is primarily a bullshitter. They are really only useful where facts don't matter, like planning events, finding ways to spend time, creating art, etc..
It varies. Sometimes several times a day, sometimes none for a week or two. I'd say about half of those conversations are about software design.
you can’t convince me everyone is recycling their used electronics.
Amazon bricks your expensive new-ish device and now you have to pay to have it recycled? Hell no people aren't recycling them, and that too should be illegal. Amazon should be legally required to take responsibility for recycling those devices, and how the device is recycled should be part of the device design process.
Fuck SUVs in particular.
What you describe is common. If you see a drone, you call your police and tell them you feel threatened or harassed. They will deal with it.
FYI all drones are required to broadcast a remote id that is registered to the drone device which is registered to a drone pilot. Your phone can receive that remote id signal, which you can give to law enforcement so they can find the pilot. Not having remote id on a drone is a felony, because once again, drones operate in federally controlled airspace.
Of course! That's what family values are all about! Praise the lord and pass the ammunition!
Harassing people violates local law, and reports of harassment and such are the only way local law enforcement can respond to drone issues since local law enforcement does not have the jurisdiction to enforce the federal statutes where the FAA regulates drones.
Drone law is crazy. There are lots of unintuitive things about it. It needs an overhaul.
FAA controls airspace from the blades of grass up. Airplanes are legally allowed to fly over private property, and drones are legally allowed to fly over private property. This is the current legal standing in America. I'm not saying it's right, but that's what it is.

The president can issue executive orders pursuant to a grant of discretion from Congress, or under the inherent powers that office holds to deal with certain matters which have the force of law.
Funny how they got 11 commandments (https://boingboing.net/2024/06/22/louisianas-new-ten-commandments-law-actually-contains-eleven-commandments.html/amp), and 11 fingers in this pic. And also the actor who played Nigel also played the six fingered man. I think I may be onto something... 🤔
Some things cannot be replaced. Spez destroyed something wonderful. There's no going back.
It's even simpler than that: they leased the office space and have to continue to pay that lease or else pay an early termination fee. This is basically the sunk cost fallacy. But you are right that sometimes additionally they get tax breaks for certain office space, for instance the San Francisco mid-market tax break (AKA the Twitter tax break)
You'd think they'd want somebody who acted like a Christian. Surely the Bible says something about using sinful means to an end...
Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—"Let us do evil that good may result"? Their condemnation is just! https://biblehub.com/romans/3-8.htm
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. https://biblehub.com/romans/3-8.htm
Better a little with righteousness than much gain with injustice. https://biblehub.com/proverbs/16-8.htm
When something is free, you are fuel in the machine that is the product.
Oh dear that's shocking. Someone fetch me a valium.
