Meantime, there's also this. It'll probably not get a lot of coverage with everything else going on.

This is a blast from the past. Not a good one.

And while very little imported oil or gas are used in electricity generation in the UK, it's not time to gloat about "this wouldn't happen if you had an EV". Lots of lower income people depend on their older ICE cars still.

Course I can. I did.

They're not the same. I'm not equating them. But they're really very comparable and similar in effect.

Whether the internet or tv or radio or newspapers or - even before that - the infamous pamphlets....yeah.

Change the word "internet" to "television" or "radio" or "newspapers" and it was ever thus.

Even Boris Johnson's technique of throwing a dead cat on the table was part of a long tradition.

If it's anything to do with housing, you can be pretty sure that the government is lying.

If anyone wanted an argument against Irish involvement in NATO, Rutte just gave one.

Children are not held to the same standards as dogs. Whether that's good or bad seems to be a matter of serious debate.

That's lazy even in terms of AI. Would have been easy to fix the gratuitous problems.

It's competing for the 2007 prize.

Same approach as housing.

Summarizing his position, it's basically "Even if we could do something, we wouldn't."

No relation.

Other than that, I though that the USA did start this war. Did I get that wrong?

Most useful AI post of the day!

It's one of the issues in arguing against global warming. A lot of the people creating the emissions live in cold places and they're not scared by "a little warmer".

And not much interested in the people who live in places where they ARE scared by "a little warmer".

Yet not spelled that way by the people living there, that I've seen much....which is why I asked.

Do you similarly write "Wooster" and "Lester" and "Byooley"? Or "Rance" and "Ohsair"?

Spelling Irish names phonetically could be quite an adventure too. Tyge. Eefa.

Interesting.

I must have a read later. Quick question from the top of page 1 though....why "Dunleary"? I haven't seen that anywhere except in historical stuff.

Multiple recent times where neither customer support nor their own AIs seem to have any idea how their own product works. Not much worse than back-and-forth with a company telling them "That's not what your product does. That option does not exist" and having them insist "Oh yes it does". Pantomime

I was at a couple of AI events recently. But how about a 2 hour sit-down interview with Dario Amodei from Anthropic. Took place a couple of weeks ago. Key phrase...“We are near the end of the exponential”. youtu.be/n1E9IZfvGMA?...

I hope that's a comparatively short term policy with comparatively little actual consequence.

Wars and bombing tends unavoidably to have actual consequence, and long term consequence. And often, even generally, not good consequence.

Perhaps we could adapt a phrase from not too long ago and conclude "There are total madmen on both sides". More than two sides in this one, I suppose.

That's quite possible.

Not a happy result.

"Yeah....those guys have a point".
That's not good for the USA. It's not good for Ireland either.
Meantime, fingers crossed for the people actually under the various falling bombs. Dubai, Doha, Tel Aviv, Tehran.

Here in Ireland most people have have a deep personal connection to and affection for the USA. Me too. So it is not good to have to say that - no matter how diabolical the Iranian regime is - a lot of people around the world will look at what the Chinese Government is saying and think

Just one example of why some of the current US vehicles don't belong on European roads, or at least not within the confines of urban areas. You might not see it immediately.

Another great achievement by a series of Irish governments. They've worked long and hard on this. Credit where credit is due!
