Like “Weekend at Sam Altman’s”?

I was thinking of Matt Gaetz but yes there are many similar Republicans. And yes, I was setting up the rule of threes.

When Martin Scorsese said “Marvel Movies Aren’t Cinema.” He’s right. Yes, it’s a motion picture, and it’s entertainment. But superhero movies are a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, but in the end signifying nothing. They have plastic, unrelateable characters that are there solely to be cheered and booed with some pseudoscientific mysterious nonsense that stands in for the gods and devils of mythology. If CG wasn’t used to produce mind-numbing effects, the movies would look ridiculous and absurd. At least some older movies (like Superman I and II in the '70s) had Superman learn about the limits of his power and his ability to be a hero.

The same problem is with Star Trek. The TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY were about the characters and ideas. If the story is too tied up in the treknobabble or speculative technology, it becomes boring. It’s about working together and growing from experience. Once it became about battles, speculative technology, petty squabbles and soap opera dynamics between characters, it became boring and unexceptional, just another expensive mediocre spectacle.

I think with all the footage of Trump, and his shallow personality, an AI will be trained to impersonate him and we’ll never be rid of him. I’m sure techbros are working on their animatronic Trump right now.

Ah, the “there is no such thing as altruism” argument. But perhaps reward and benefit transcends a single individual:

Quantum states are incredibly fragile and can be disturbed with even the slightest interaction with the environment (called decoherence). These devices are cooled and isolated to the most extreme degrees possible and still at present decoherence severely limits the computations that can be performed.

CAPTCHAs are solved by consensus. Whatever the CAPTCHA thinks a bicycle is depends on what people before it selected. Sometimes it doesn’t know and just uses your answer to set up future CAPTCHAs. So you should be thinking: what would other people (or bots) select for the CAPTCHA.

You would think that with all those kids watching, Xi would lean into the whole Winnie the Pooh resemblance.

How is it a breach if data was shared intentionally? This is a violation of confidentiality.

Hydrogen is an electron and proton. I am guessing that most protons have been fully ionized many times since the beginning of the universe, thus not being complete intact atoms. Checkmate scientists!

I wonder what kind of simulators they use to test their code.

Tesla is making it harder and harder to dare buy an electric vehicle.
