Nobody likes a sucker, especially the kind that fall for fruit tarts like you. I knew there was trouble. I could smell it on the hot evening breeze. Fortunately for me, trouble is my favorite thing… Because I’m Joe Milkshake. I kicked down the door with one swift, decisive motion.

If your whole thesis is derailed by one rat not behaving as you thought I’d argue your thesis is probably pretty shitty to begin with.

This makes Section 31 sound like Oceans 11. Which would be fine if this were the first mention of Section 31 and what they are about. This is nothing like the Section 31 from DS9, maybe there is some kind of explanation for that, we’ll see.

- Comment on 4 or more hours of daily screen time linked to more anxiety and depression in teens, data shows 2 weeks ago:
That’s a big point that also usually isn’t really distinguished in all these studies, especially the ones about children and screen time.
I feel there are differences between just watching cartoons and playing some involving game.
Also, just walking by a TV that’s on is also screen time, or not? Is the TV running in the background at home screen time when you only look at it 5 minutes here and there?
I’d be happy if those studies would clearly state, 4 hours social media per day ia bad. Or 4 hours watching TV with at least 30 minutes long sessions is bad. Stuff like that.

- Comment on Norwegian government to set 15-year age limit for using social media 3 weeks ago:
The enforcing part is where this is likely to get shitty. Once they establish this as a law they maybe will try and sue companies that don’t provide an age check on their websites. Now if that is possible I am not sure, seeing as many of those are having HQs in Ireland or Netherlands due to tax reasons.
But if that is successful it would mean they actually have to check everyone’s age by some means, which means collecting IDs. Which definitely is bad news for users, we all know that data won’t be securely stored or deleted.
Not sure how else this could go down.

Not an expert so I might be wrong, but as far as I understand it, those specialised tools you describe are not even AI. It is all machine learning. Maybe to the end user it doesn’t matter, but people have this idea of an intelligent machine when its more like brute force information feeding into a model system.

It was a bit different than you say but not too far off: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum
In a nutshell, among several more countries Russia and Ukraine signed this agreement, Ukraine and other countries pledged to get rid of sovjet nukes, in return Russia and other countries pledged to not excerpt force against the countries that signed, except for self defense. And well, we know now how that went.

Manjaro for example. I also thought Garuda would be focused on stability but according to this article potentially no. So maybe just Manjaro, I do remember reading about something else like it though…
- Comment on Arch Linux and Valve Collaboration 1 month ago:
That’s… a weird take. There are variants of Arch that focus on stability, if that’s what you are after.
