Why Does Elon Musk Still Have a Security Clearance? The U.S. government seems to think he’s too big to fail. in c/[email protected]

Lol. So did MacAfee. He said he had tried "all the drugs" and they gave him a clearance.

I don't think there are any hard and fast requirements. The idea is to analyze your overall risk, not whether or not you're a naughty person for having done drugs.

I mean... He makes rockets for them. Wouldn't he have to have some clearance of some kind?

Tannenbaum is fucking asshole. Isn't he the idiot that told Torvalds "you certainly would have failed my class if you submitted your OS as a final project?"

The guy deserves no respect.

It is not that simple. These are cat and mouse games. Whack a mole. Whatever you'd like to say.

Just why. This was like the third time it reminded me that I shouldn't have the phone I have.

I really don't understand the public desire to make these AIs like this.

"Curly" apostrophe (lemmy.world)
 

I was wondering if anyone here knew how to create a "curly" apostrophe in LaTeX without having to type out the unicode character for it. I know that the csquotes package is an option, but this only appears to allow making curly single and double quote pairs. I don't want quotes. I want a curly, single apostrophe.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sick pepper plant (lemmy.world)
 

Do any of you fine people know what might be going on here? Leaves are falling like crazy and the frankly looks sick. The plant did have aphids for a bit but that is taken care of now. The problem began before I noticed the aphids and has continued now that they are gone. I fear the poor thing may be dying.

Sorry if the image orientation is off. I couldn't seem to get lemmy to recognize which side was up...
