What training data was used for this "ethical AI"?


I would agree, but the freezers going into high heat defrost mode seems like an intentional action from someone, whether that be incompetence or malice on the side of DeCA, or malice from a third party. If they got rid of the people commanding the freezers what to do, I feel like they'd just stay on whatever mode they were already on, rather than suddenly command all the freezers to defrost


Defrosting is very often automatic. That can involve mechanical timers, or software timers, or logic/code of any complexity. All of these things can be badly-implemented and/or become broken or stuck.

Maybe the mode they got stuck on was defrost.

  if n>100 then defrost until y=3
If n is found to be greater than 100 and y subsequently never comes 'round to be 3, then defrost starts and runs forever.


Yes


And at some point in hindsight it will be obvious what fractions of problems were

A. This technology is inherently crap, that's our fault

B. A bored teenager broke it. Bored teenagers are a thing, it literally doesn't matter which country they are in, stop building things bored teenagers will blow up, this is also inherently our fault

C. Foreign Adversaries

It suits both mass media audience figures and a narrative of wily enemies rather than incompetence to pin everything on C and it seems eminently possible that a country with as many enemies as the US would attract this sometimes, but the reality is that both A and B are much more likely despite being embarrassing.


There should be a "falsehoods programmers believe about books"

TOML? It's what I've been using for complex configuration in personal projects (more complex than command line switches)


Only works if the path goes from one side to another. If it ends in the center, it will be solvable but only be a single piece. It can also fall into multiple pieces without being solvable if there is a disconnected piece of wall


I'm not sure what hand position you're using, but on the keyboard I'm at right now, I put my left little finger on control, and use my left index finger for the c/v. Do you mean that you're using your thumb for control and index for c/v?

I've slightly modified mine to work better for my needs. 3d printed poop bucket, separate external filament holder, and while I haven't done it myself, there's a company making an automatic bed changer for the a1 mini so you can do multiple prints without supervision
