I’m not saying nobody would buy the PC version. I’m saying the kind of person who spends over 10x what it would have cost to buy a Switch 2 and the game, to have AI port it to PC, doesn’t sound like the kind of person who would have bought the PC version if it existed.
If they ported it to PC people like this would just pirate it. There’s no winning.
In the parts of the interview they showed on last night’s Daily Show, the interviewer actually brought up some of Trump’s family’s business dealings and said, if Biden’s family did it you’d call it corrupt, how is this different? Apparently all Trump had was “I didn’t know about it.”
It’s not about conservation. It’s just, why have the water running when you brush your teeth? I wet the toothbrush, brush my teeth, then rise the toothbrush. What do you need water for while you’re brushing?
The war in Iran is getting a lot of the blame for Republican losses, and this is a chance for the losers to get some revenge on the way out.
The new people who were elected mostly don’t even start until January! There’s still time for the people on their way out to fuck things up.
That seems to show a shift of one point, and it’s based on exit polls, which will probably have a bigger margin of error than that. The bottom text even says “subject to final weighting”.
Being Canadian was important enough for the government to throw money their way:
The Canadian government is taking an equity stake in Cohere, joining a funding round led by Germany’s Schwarz Group targeting $7 billion for the Toronto-based AI lab, Cohere said on Thursday.
[Prime Minister Mark Carney] said Ottawa would invest up to $1.6 billion in Cohere. Other investors included Nvidia and BCE’s Bell Canada subsidiary, he said.
Cohere doesn’t seem super ambitious, for an AI company:
Cohere will invest at least $1.7 billion in new computing infrastructure in Canada by 2030, he added.
The new data centre that’s supposed to be built in Nova Scotia for Anthropic is supposed to cost $8 billion.
Nixon went on to say that Democrats were wary of throwing in behind a Black woman in the South following Kamala Harris’ 2024 loss
A Black Republican was elected over a white Democrat in Florida’s gubernatorial election. They may be more interested in partisanship than racism down there.
That’s not what they did. “Artificial Superintelligence” is something the AI executives have been talking about. “Super Intelligence” is Trump’s term for Artificial Intelligence because somehow an LLM appearing to be intelligent makes it not “artificial” in his mind.
They wrote “uninformed”, not uniformed.
Qobuz has a family plan, and it’s cheaper than Spotify’s, at least in Canada.
More context:
“Incumbents crowd out the innovators in many sectors and markets,” Jackson said. “It wasn’t the Post Office [the U.K.’s public mail service] that invented email. The music industry held back streaming and digital music for 10 to 20 years. What you need is routes to market for new technologies, and I think that can be a challenge in Europe because so many of the big industries essentially have a stranglehold on policy.
“Economists have said that nearly all productivity growth comes from new companies. If we want more growth, we need to allow creative destruction so new companies can deliver the productivity we need.”
I think the target of the “creative destruction” here is the companies holding back growth in electrification.
Tuta is currently looking into using AI in development
The current Tuta apps are built more than 99% without AI, but we are currently testing whether it makes sense to use AI tools to help developers speed up repetitive processes and increase efficiency overall. The goal of Tuta is to bring privacy to everyone and for that the Tuta apps must become much more feature-rich and competitive with Big Tech equivalents (eg Gmail)
I’m not American, and 1ml = 1cm3 so it would be 333cm3.
Most people probably know how big a pop can is, and understand that even baby elephants are pretty heavy. It gets the point across better than “A meteor with a volume of approximately one third of a litre and a mass of approximately 350 kilograms”.
Trump added a number of Canadian products to the 50% tariff list to offset the tariff relief provided in his order, including carpets, paints, waste, shampoos, cocoa powder, wooden coffins, ice cream sticks, air-conditioning machines, chest freezers, archery equipment and canoes.
The headline doesn’t tell the whole story: Trump removed tariffs from same Canadian products, and added tariffs to others. This is strictly to help Collins, not provide any improvement in the US’s relationship with Canada.
Here, the DOJ argues that the presence of a presumed spoiler candidate on the ballot, Daniel J. Sullivan, will taint the race by confusing voters who intended to vote for the incumbent Republican senator, Daniel S. Sullivan. It demands that the judge block any certification until an investigation can “determine whether votes cast for Daniel J. Sullivan were meant to be cast for Senator Sullivan.”
They do have a bit of point; Republican voters are certainly not the most informed. But don’t the ballots list a candidate’s party beside their name?
If the Republicans get stomped in the midterms they’ll get productive on fucking things up in the time they have left before the changeover.
I don’t think the person who spent thousands of dollars to have AI port a game was concerned about convenience.
