I dunno. You could throw yourself down the stairs. It's an awful choice, but you could still do it...

The point is, a choice with all kinds of negative consequences to it isn't really a choice.

There are other benefits of NAT, besides address range. Putting devices behind a NAT is hugely beneficial for privacy and security.

I think the "anyone" here really means: "why would average Joe use this?"

It's a population chart...

By insisting on perfect, you are preventing incremental change.

Here in Canada, I find the prices pretty neck and neck. Small items tend to be a bit cheaper at the stores, since there is very little overhead for them to carry small items compared to Amazon's picking and delivery logistics. Big items tend to be a bit cheaper on Amazon. For tech specifically, Best Buy price matches items, so it's not that bad... Memory express and CC sometimes have lower prices than Amazon too (see PCPartPicker).

The main reason to use Amazon is you can easily find some really obscure stuff. Then again, you can buy direct from manufacturer, like Vevor, for often cheaper.

How about we ban software in cars in general, beyond basic engine control.

Is a corner with an angle of 180 degrees a corner? If yes, then all shapes have infinite corners and infinite edges.

As a human ISO8601 is great. Ambiguity is far far worse, than having to read out a date aloud in an order any other than the order it is habitually spoken.

Mhm. There's two very good reason unrealized gains aren't taxed: volatility and cash flow. Are you and the government expected to swap cash back and forth everyday to correct for changes in the market? No that's silly. Should people go into debt because they don't have the cash to pay the taxes of a baseball card they happen to own that is suddenly worth millions? Also silly.

For that same reason, using unrealized gains as security is dangerous, just like the subprime loans market was!

Did anyone stop to ask themselves if we even would want to watch AI videos?

Of course not.

I, and I suspect many other people, watch YouTube for the people in the videos and their experiences (or at least the illusion of that). Watching fake videos defeats the whole purpose.

~~You~~AITube sounds like nothing more than a kaleidoscope with extra steps.

That's what happens when you aren't the (sole) paying customer.
