[04:10] schestowitz__[TR]With multicore systems now common, the project has shifted toward scalability and reliability. The project's website claims that the system can handle up to at least a million user processes or threads. It's possible to run an entire kernel in user mode on DragonFly BSD.
[04:10] schestowitz__[TR]The system also uses its own filesystem, HAMMER. It can recover from crashes without running fsck on reboot and supports up to an exabyte in storage.
[05:20] -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-citizenlab.ca | Submission to the Government of Canada on the Renewal of the Responsible Business Conduct Strategy - The Citizen Lab [05:20] schestowitz__[TR]We commend the Toronto Police Services Board (TPSB) for engaging in this public consultation and welcome this opportunity to submit comments on the TPSBs Use of Artificial Intelligence Technologies Policy (AI Policy). In this submission, we urge the TPSB to centre precaution, substantive equality, human rights, privacy protections, transparency, and accountability in its policy on the use of AI technology by the [05:20] schestowitz__[TR] Toronto Police Services (TPS). Further, we implore the Board to continue to seek out the guidance and expertise of AI and technology scholars and advocates; equality and human rights experts; affected communities and their members, including historically marginalized communities; and other relevant stakeholders when developing and implementing policies related to the adoption and use of AI by the TPS today, and into the future. Finally, we [05:20] schestowitz__[TR] recommend that the TPSB place an immediate moratorium on law enforcement use of algorithmic policing technologies that do not meet minimum prerequisite conditions of reliability, necessity, and proportionality.1 We appreciate and recognize that our comments will be shared publicly.

The answer to this argument is so mind-bogglingly obvious that, in the absence of understanding, it starkly illuminates just how successful capitalism has been in corrupting a broad human understanding of empathy. So, I will spell the answer out: why do we have [05:42] schestowitz__[TR] a system which will, for any reason, deny someone access to food? How unbelievably cruel is a system which will let someone starve because they cannot be productive within the terms of capitalism?
