I’m no fan of google, but I don’t see how it could be expected to act as the insurer for people who have fallen victim to social-engineering gift card scams.

It would be a pretty crazy precedent if the judge ruled differently.

I hope this frees up time to invest more time in a passion project for himself. I want nothing but contentment for that guy.

Working from the definition of sociopathy, I think you could substitute “AI” in a few spots and end up with a nearly equally-accurate definition of AI:

A sociopath is someone with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), a mental health condition that involves a lack of regard for others' feelings and rights. People with ASPD may: Lack empathy and remorse Manipulate others for personal gain Behave impulsively or aggressively Break rules or laws Feel little guilt for harming others Seem charming at first Have difficulty understanding others' feelings

Sooooo…the next update to AI is sociopathy:

Because AIs don’t share common human values like fairness or justice — they’re just focused on the goal they’re given — they might go about achieving their goal in a way humans would find horrifying.

I feel like the Mystery Machine became a requirement after Venkman exploded too many real estate developers.

This isn’t a big deal.

If you’re developing in Xcode, you did not buy an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years.

If you are just using your Mac for Facebook and email, I don’t think you know what RAM is.

If you know what RAM is, and you bought an 8GB Mac in the last 10-years, then you are likely self-aware of your limited demands and/or made an informed compromise.

Nas T-Funk was the OG of Funeral Beat Boxing.

This new guy can only walk-in thanks to people having already opened the doors and windows on account of Nas T-Funk.

I don’t disagree that 8GB is generally less than I would accept for normal usage, but the way this article is written you can tell the author really doesn’t have any reasonable grasp of memory management.
