I don’t think that was the point I was making at all.

This seems exactly like a case where computer algorithms would function worse than humans. It is not surprising (to me) that those exist.

For instance, put a sign that flashes “Skydivers will land 100m in front of you in about 5s, break now” and human beings will have 100% success rate in avoiding it, and computers will not. (Or any other situation that relies on written communication that is not usually used on the road).

There’s plenty of situations where human ability will perform better than computer models (and vice versa).

You can infer that it is meant to represent a human, and thus likely to move across a crossing, but there’s no reason to expect a computer to read it as a human right?

The most obvious characteristic is distinctly not human (Legs don’t work that way), so it looks like some weird windmill, or one of those hot air moving men.

The ones I just know of are also people friends say are both great at their stuff and good to work with, so I have high hopes they’ll make some awesome stuff.

There’s stuff we outsource (easy to describe tasks), but the stuff that needs tight iteration loops is so much easier when you can just get up, walk a few meters, and talk about it.

In Ireland you don’t do anything in the usual case, unless you think it’s wrong, everything is taxed at source by the employers/banks.

Both cases different if you’re a company ofc.

Price comparison sites is not a new thing?

I’d much rather have a smaller house but with a yard I can grow stuff in, or be outside in, than a 3000 Sqft house on a 8000sqft plot.

Overall I support the regulations, but I really wish the penalties had more documented structure than “We will fine you anywhere from 0 to an 8 digit number (in our case) depending on what we think is right”.

Try to understand what is even personal data from this:

It is all about risk, ambiguity and individual circumstances. I dont think that is bad, but there is no clear record of what it even is we are meant to protect.

The orchestration of a data extract from even a midsized corporation is a significant endeavour.

Someone in the company knowing what data we have on an entity is a significant step away from the entire company being able to access that, because, you know, we take data privacy seriously, so we don’t make it easy to access all data on a single entity.

If your approach to privacy is putting all the eggs in a basket, allowing easy extraction of everything from that basket, and hoping the basket can be kept secure I’d argue your model is weird to begin with.

The Swedish qwctf scene at least was very clearly divided in 20ms people who went to or worked at, a university, and 150ms people who played from home.

There were some 50-60ms ISDN people too but I can only remember a few.

Sounds like a different way to express that.

There’s plenty of better sounding fully wireless headphones in that price range - Jabra elite 65t are meant to be good, I have the beoplay e8 and they are quite nice, Sennheiser momentum are in that same price class etc etc.

Loyalty is not a black and white thing.

I can list close to 15 years of small experiences that make me feel like my current employer truly cares. I’ve had very few negative experiences, and when I have had them I’ve said “hey that’s not cool”, and the company has fixed it as much as it could be fixed. The fact that I may be fired at some point does not invalidate that.

To me, loyalty between a company and an individual is not about the contract of work, it is about the environment that exists while you are working. Both I and the company have the option at any time to terminate the employment, that’s just part of the deal. That does not mean long term loyalty and expectations can’t exist.
