Who needs tech-debt when you have new and improved slop-debt?

42·1 天前Even humans who are driving normally and sober can be held responsible if the law decides that they were at fault. Fatal accidents are investigated by people whose job is specifically to investigate vehicle accidents.
That’s a good question, but it’s important to keep in mind that a lot of public judgement here is based off a single headline, not a thorough investigation. The world is messy, and even the best technology will get into accidents due to any number of causes, including children dashing into the road.
In the case where the technology in the car was found to be at fault, I agree that there needs to be a responsible party, but it’s not exactly straightforward. Punishing the driver seems counterintuitive, but may be useful in getting owners to be diligent in selecting safer vehicles. And punishing the company is complicated - if the punishment is just a fine, it will simply be rolled up into their expected expenses. If it’s too damaging, it will chill development of automated driving entirely. I’m not really sure what the best solution is.

44·1 天前How many children get hit and killed by human drivers every year? Why are you only worried now?
Same with games, same with movies, same with music etc, etc. People only look in the least original spaces and then whine about unoriginal content. Self defeating.
What prime material for someone to write an allegorical book about.

16·3 天前This was inevitable as soon as the image/video generation tech became self-hostable. It’s still abhorrent, but not surprising from a government so shamelessly self-serving as his. We’re fast entering an age where little-to-nothing will be trustworthy. Scary shit.

Television@piefed.social•‘Wednesday’ season two beats ‘Stranger Things’ in Netflix viewing numbers
111·5 天前https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_box_show
The “Mystery Box” is a technique (if it can really be considered such) I believe coined by JJ Abrams where, instead of having a clear plan for a story and working from that, they instead pepper in mysterious and intriguing tidbits with little-to-no explanation, and a lure that it will all be explained “eventually”, stringing the audience along indefinitely. JJ has done this for every single property he’s helmed, and never once has he provided a satisfactory resolution.
Stranger Things could be said to have had this in season 1, with lots of spooky, intriguing unknowns, but I think the creators at least had a decent idea of where they were headed by season 2. Unfortunately, being the finale, season 5 suffered from the breadcrumb practice of the prior seasons and had to shove all the unresolved lore in at once, which has put off a good number of viewers.

It’s like the text predictor on your phone. If you just keep hitting the next suggested word, you’ll usually end up in a loop at some point. Same thing here, though admittedly much more advanced.
