All Trek is like this, but Voyager was a particularly blatant offender. Their writing quality was generally not great, and there were quite a few cases where they would run the same premise multiple times in a season, which just highlighted the implausibility of the crew having to make the same mistakes twice in a row.
He was a child. If a kid is handed a gun and kills somebody playing with it, they will feel guilty the rest of their lives. However, the actual moral responsibility lies with the adult who gave them the gun and failed to supervise them correctly.
Because South Korea genuinely wants reunification, and if a future government believes that a stalemate is not achieving that they may explore other approaches. The US has been supporting South Korean defense, but has also been working to maintain the status quo in cases where SK has wanted to take a more aggressive stance.
The real danger is that a SK government in the future will decide to risk it and invade the north. The follow on effects in China and Japan could be highly destabilizing, even assuming South Korea's industrial capacity survives unscathed. But I suppose the world has moved beyond "stability" as an end goal, and rolling the dice for the fate of billions is just another Friday night.
I think they are planning to go even further than that. There wont be a an internet made up of discrete websites full of facts, or web search as we understand it today. They want to make their AI the first and last stop for any question a person might have, and have the AI act as agent to perform any tasks that require interactions with the broader web.
It is, and it probably means they'll continue their foreign influence operations, even at the expense of money they needed for military operations. Expect a fresh wave of right wing authoritarian politicians to pop up all over the world. It also increases the odds they will do something stupid and dangerous to shake things up.
No, its the whole point. One was a public facing motto that everybody knew, the other is a corporate ethics statement that nobody knows about or believes.
So I can actually think of a few reasons: Preprocessing vast amounts of super high resolution satellite imagery to save bandwidth, and jurisdictional black site processing data some countries would want to steal or arrest you for having or processing, particularly if you were hiding it from internal audit. You would be paying an extreme premium over ground based for ever FLOP, so, the customer base of practical customers is limited to a handful of very well funded intelligence agencies or scientific projects in very niche use cases.
You can drop a mouse down a mineshaft and it can survive the landing, but a skyscraper has cross winds, which could easily get it moving laterally too fast to survive. A hamster is considerably larger than a mouse though, and just because a mouse could survive doesnt mean a hamster would.
The only way to get him out of the CEO chair is for him to retire or die. He never gave up voting control during the IPO and controls more than 50% of the vote.
Interesting. If this takes off the decoy potential is, I think, one of the more interesting parts. High altitude interceptions aren't cheap, and a an old fender tied to a $50 balloon would be almost indistinguishable from one hauling a missile. Either shoot everything down or let them drift past and risk that one might suddenly deploy a weapon after its drifted out of range.
More boots on the ground with a crumbling logistics footprint is not a winning offensive move. It can sort of work on a defensive footing, but without transportation, food, medical, fire support, etc its just a slowly shambling mass casualty event trying to take ground.

Really, it was Dukat that killed those people. Who puts an infant in a position like that?
The real problem is that we need a new acronym. TAFOHCC: Trump always fucks over his co-conspirators. Its just not as catchy.
No, what evil needs is meat the fill out thousands of uniforms, which is harder to find when potential conscripts run away.

Ah the irony of AI. Too unreliable to play an NPC in a video game, but reliable enough to pick bombing targets in real life.

Nobody reads corporate ethics statements.

Ok, but a cash register isnt a paywall. A paywall is a specific thing with an actual definition.

Yea but thats not what a paywall actually is.
