My father used to be a prosecutor in MS, and one of my earliest going-to-work-with-dad memories is watching him sign off on warrants for people writing hot checks. I asked him once if he thought that was a bit heavy-handed and he gave me a very stern lecture about people who write hot checks.
My mother told me I would end up in massive unrecoverable debt if I didn’t keep my check book balanced, and if I kept it up for too long I would be arrested for fraud. She was from MS, so that tracks.
My prev comment was just quoting Johnny Cash. Had I thought about it, I probably would have assumed that “writing hot checks” was in the song because it’s sort of an amateur crime that landed him in the prison where he learned his lessons. Of course it has to be Mississippi for the chain gang reference.
I think what you're likely to find if you start requiring a credit card on file is that you're now a portal for scammers to test credit card numbers. (Yes, this is why we can't have nice things...)
It looks like it gives you DIY plans but there is also an option to get a finished keyboard - this leads to a page with some error messages in it though.
GP doesn’t actually need arguments for it. As change agents AI companies need to argue why they should be allowed to train on others’ code, and clearly in GP’s case they’ve failed to meet the burden of proof.
exactly this. it’s why i’m having trouble getting too worked up about the notion of AI replacing all the jobs (though i think it will end up, for a time, reducing the number of early career jobs available, which has its own social ramifications.)
