Yeah, I guess the debate is which is the lesser evil. I didn’t make the original comment but I think this is what they were getting at.

If you aren’t allowed to freely use data for training without a license, then the fear is that only large companies will own enough works or be able to afford licenses to train models.

Since it’s processed on device they don’t (necessarily) need to transmit and store your conversations in some central location. I guess theoretically this could be done in a secure way.

Glaciers are there year round.

Whether or not something has tariffs depends on the type of good and where it is from. Overall it’s a complicated system. But we’ve had free trade in North America for a while now which is why there haven’t been tariffs between Canada and the US.

I don’t think you are allowed to sell patent infringing products, even if you didn’t make them. The manufacturers may not be in the US so going after them could be more complex. I believe patents restrict rights to make, use, or sell.

No Candy Crush? Non-starter.

In the case of Toronto presumably water is a municipal responsibility… Reserves are a federal responsibility though so you’d think they would be responsible here. The government has actually been putting in a ton of money on this issue and as the article says the number of boil water advisories is down by like 2/3 since the Liberals came to power. So also kinda weird argument by the justice department here.

Imagine hiring a taxi without having your lawyer review the terms and conditions, lol

What is intelligence though? Maybe I’m getting through life just by being pretty good at predicting what to say or do next…

I think Sysco is up about 10% per year on average since 1990 so it’s not so bad…

In Vancouver 18.5 cents per litre goes to transit.

They are actually locked out, not on strike.

Hand coverings should be banned.

I don’t think there was really much of a housing collapse in Canada…

Variable rate let’s me take on the rate risk and pay (on average) less interest. Fixed interest means the bank prices in the rate risk and you pay for that in a higher rate.

Forced to move into traffic (perhaps unexpectedly) and get run over.

But you have to select if it was human or not, right? So if you can’t tell, then you’d expect 50%. That’s different than “I can tell, and I know this is a human” but you are wrong… Now that we know the bots are so good, I’m not sure how people will decide how to answer these tests. They’re going to encounter something that seems human-like and then essentially try to guess based on minor clues… So there will be inherent randomness. If something was a really crappy bot then it wouldn’t ever fool anyone and the result would be 0%.

How much could a tweet cost? $10?
