browser based applications can still gain access to this data, using very similar workflows. E.g. a weather app rendered on a browser is still going to request your location, and can fingerprint that browser to build a user profile. I'm not sure your solution is a solution at all.
That's not the way I want to live. I want to enjoy technology and enjoy privacy, and since those aren't mutually exclusive, it's reasonable to expect both.
It might not be paint with internet, it might be something like a packet over your network asking a computer to open an input/file, and the computer responds by opening that malicious input with paint
We are kind of spoiled today. It's easy to forget how insane it is that you can write a program in Go or Rust and build a binary for all major operating systems with a single command. It's so nice
I'm open to a special tax on A.I. companies that hedges against a bailout. Safety nets are important, and I think we should normalize a socialist outlook on economic losses so long as we can also socialize the gains.
yeah, one-shot (medium-large) builds just don't seem to give me good results yet. I use them now for small examples though, e.g. for visualizing a process. Most recently I used it to visualize neural networks, and how convolution works. That might not be something most people need, but it really helped me.
Hah, found someone else also using it for visualizations of algos! I've used it to show me how quad-trees[0] work and I'm impressed with the results. One-shotted too so I agree one-shots are best for this kind of very specific scenario.
a friend showed me their budget recently, and about 45 hours of their wages go to rent each month (for a single room in a house with roommates). That seems very high to me, and their rent is considered "low" in their area (a small suburb)
Assuming they work full time, that is pretty average. The old "30%" rule is that you should spend no more than 30% of your pre-tax wages on rent. Your friend is spending just over a quarter post-taxes.
Something about this still seems to be imbalanced.. and 45/160 is 28%, just below this threshold you've referenced. My intuition says something is wrong here.
Either I missed or was added in an edit the bit about having roommates. That's definitely absurd. I was paying that amount for an entire house in a nice suburb maybe 8 or 9 years ago. Even with only one roommate paying the same amount, they are together paying way more than my mortgage for a house in the country with 5 acres of land and waterfront along one entire side.
I imagine they're in a high cost of living area, where tons of other people want to live. If that's the case, it probably shouldn't be any surprise that in a supply restricted market, the prices are also very high.
yeah, I honestly just feel bad for him. I have it easier, but he's going to school, working, holding down a leadership position in an engineering club. He's living his best life, so I can't feel too bad, but he deserves a break from the cost of living.
*edit: they're not in a _high_ cost living area, but it's not cheap either.
