'I'm a bad programmer" then later lists extra curriculars that dwarfs my skills

I don't think the issue is him; it's the economy. Companies are probably not really looking to increase their workforce but still conducting interviews just in case they find a "Rockstar"

It is a social issue. People being incapable of taking care of themselves is inevitable. All civilizations had these issues. Families, churches and general generosity of neighbors have always been used to mitigate this.

Now with the wealth gap increasing and the individualistic philosophy in our society with not noticing and tending to these early on. We only notice once the person is a full blown junkie. Many needed help for a a short moment in life and could of become autonomous after, many are both permanently incapable of autonomy. Either way society have to deal with them. We have enough resources! For the price of just one of those opulent pick up we could probably shelter one person for 2-5 years.

I moved to the city so I don't have to drive every day. The only way for me to not daydream while driving was to drive fast enough for it to be dangerous.

One of my friend, often a my passenger, admitted he felt safer when I was driving fast and when I was a low speed he would "copilot" for me.

Would you rather have them only use it outside of school work where no one will point out that it can be wrong? Teachers could also ask questions on the studied subject in class to teach student that by copy pasting the output they are not learning much.

ChatGPT exist, kid will use it. Should adults guide them?

So the homework is encouraging kids to explore a real life tool and the teacher can look at the result and corrects any issue with the result thus guiding the students towards a appropriate usage.

It's a good thing.

It's pay walled but how would China enforce that ruling? Ban all of Intel's transactions with Chinese entity? Fines?

He was reacting to alerts, complying to them by simply touching the steering wheel. He did that 150 times during that 45 minute trip ( not all the trip was on auto pilot).

So if the guy died the car would of disengaged auto pilot (I'm not sure how this works).

You can check the video in the article. It's quite informative .

Edit

I saw another video and it takes ~60 seconds after taking off your hand from the steering wheel for the car to safely come to a full stop.

Here in Montreal we have a very popular car sharing company that allows many of us to not own cars.

It's biggest issue at the moment is that the company can't buy cars as quickly as demand increases. This type of cars would be a great addition to their park since a lot of the trips their customer do are short inner city trips.

They article mention it's more about discouraging teens from starting smoking than making current smokers quit.

It kind of make sense since you start smoking by receiving a single cigarette not by buying a pack. I know at my high school a lot of smokers started smoking by buying individual smoke from the smoke pusher

I miss working in PHP. Sadly there's less use cases for it today (at least relatively to my personal situation)
