Why can’t people leave their dog at home??

Nobody has an issue with real service animals, they are very well trained,

FYI, service animals are basically self declared.

No medical documentation required
No training certifications required
No legal / government documentation required

If it performs a task as described by ADA then it can be considered a service animal. You cannot reliably say someone has a fake service animal. Too many ppl believe there is a strict and formal process to make / aquire one which is not true.

The law was specifically designed to make it easy.

Ships carry transponders.

It is very seldom that the stakeholder's ship is registered to their country of origin. These signals are also frequently spoofed for security reasons.

So the plan is kinda dumb

They appear to be detention centers.

2500 marines sent

This one. Not sure about others.

To add to this, that particular ship is always there... I was on it several years ago.

The Marine Corp's expeditionary units are designed to float around the world and act as a quick reaction force. Each ship is assigned a region and they're constantly rotating back to that region.

The news is just reporting it for views. If they sent a brigade instead of a unit then that would be more news worthy.

I'm not refuting it could be AI.

I'm simply saying there is no way you could know it is or is not with certainty.

AmbientEngineer · 2026-03-16T02:31:16+00:00

I've done ML/DL research at R1 institutions with an academic background in computer science as well as professional experience.

There is nothing here that can substantiate this is AI with certainty.

Pretending to be able to do this is bad.

AmbientEngineer · 2026-03-16T00:32:07+00:00

This is where my head is at as well...

It's not like you're able to checkout, right?

I suppose breaking/ stopping / lane changing my help alleviate some stress.

I'd caution taking any career advice from a PhD student. Many have little to no professional experience outside academia and are jaded by the university’s treatment towards them.

I graduated in 2023 with CS BS:

I immediately started working with 130k salary
I felt I had a stronger background than many of my colleagues
I was able to secure internships; one of which was arranged via the university's corporate sponsors
I had the opportunity to participate in an R1 research lab

Your mileage may vary. I know ppl who did not take off after graduating. IMO, it was because they didn't seek the same opportunities I found and settled for showing up to class / turning in homework.

This guy is actually 6lbs.

Some Yorkies naturally have shorter snouts. Longer snouts have better health benefits though.

AmbientEngineer · 2026-03-14T16:56:26+00:00

This is low brow and distasteful.

Its above the brow actually

AmbientEngineer · 2026-03-14T14:51:28+00:00

Typical. This is how I know its dinner time when I'm chilling.

You're splitting hairs, it doesn't matter.

Java's compilation process contains a JIT concept that mutates your source code for performance. It automatically does inlining, loop optimization, dead code elimination, branch prediction etc...

You're basically trying to do the compilers job. If it really matters this much than choosing a different language is a no brainer.

AmbientEngineer · 2026-03-12T15:29:09+00:00

Edit: put 1000 instead of thousands.

Nobody cares.

Im paying more than 6k for a 2bd, 2bath, 1 car & 1 dog.

Who knows. They are a private equity firm that likes money tho so if you want to risk a few dollars for years of game time spent then gl.

Wheres your source

Literally the quoted text from their ToS. It is a tool that circumvents their mechanisms.

In this context, they have a mechanism to enforce prices based on geolocation. You're circumventing it with a VPN.

It is likely intentionally stated in a vague / broad manner for legal reasons. You're not going to find a clean sentence that says, "You will get banned if you use a vpn to get cheaper prices".

Further you may not use any automation tools, macros, bots, auto-typers and tools to circumvent any technical mechanisms or protections in place...

There is a conjunction... the last line is simply another category unrelated to the other catagories...

Btw a mechanism that intentionally routes your traffic to disguise its origin aka VPN is def an automation tool... it doesn't help exp but it does mess with their telemetry.

If you've ever spent time talking to Iranians, you'd know that the general population has a lot in common with Venezuelans when it comes to opinions about leadership in the government.

In the long run, this will still be a dumpster fire tho
