Yeah, this is why I added a hardware key to my db. The hardware key is required not just for reading the db, but writing to it as well.

Another tip: use something like an OnlyKey that has its own locking and self-destruct mechanisms so this method isn’t foiled by simply acquiring the key.

IIRC, the interior of the main performance space is also covered in video wall, so add that to the pile.

But, yeah… I doubt this power is for playback. My guess would be render farm.

When I drove rideshare, I loved the quiet passengers. I honestly had to talk so damn much to everyone else, it felt like a break.

Is it common? That depends on your context. Since your particular context includes an internet connection, literacy, and living in a situation with the means to reserve space for a child that isn’t home full-time, I feel pretty confident in my estimation that it’s probably not common.

The AI doesnt understand the former, only the latter.

Do you possibly mean “The AI evangelists” or something similar?

Like, I could totally understand it in the “software will also include the biases of those who wrote it” kind of way (a la Amazon’s failed attempt at automating job candidate search). If the only incentive you’re given as a programmer is “make it make money”, then yeah, your AI is going to bias towards that end.

Just couldn’t tell on first reading
