I like New Year Resolutions, so here goes:

1. get my French to C1 level
2. Go to the theatre more often
3. Drink lots of good wine
4. Go to champagne and buy lots of champagne
5. Get a six pack (almost impossible)

It’s a stupid answer to a stupid question.

NVIDiA are probably screwed too.

The answer is obvious, it’s completely dependent on policy. The interesting question is if we wish to limit inequality what policies do we need to implement.

Calling it AI may well be insane but it’s what the folks call it. And I think we have to discuss policy because it isn’t going away any time soon.

I know it’s a non-answer, it’s a non-question.

Everything you’ve written here is orthogonal both to the question and my answer.

That wasn’t the question. The question was about equality.

That depends on policy choices. On a very basic level it increases equality of people have access to it. If you ensure everyone has access great. If not, then obviously not

For years I had the pied from the store and it was always shit so 2 years ago I got the great German stand

The 4 steps of Christmas

Yeah my daughters a fan of that last one too

Does she care?

Maybe, dunno. If my kid turns it off I won’t worry, if she keeps it on, I won’t worry so 🤷🏻‍♂️

My mum used to worry all the time and the fact I would phone only once a week made it worse not better.

Why would parents worry more about that with family sharing than otherwise? If they’re going to worry they’re going to worry

But the kids can do that anyway. After 16 there are no more parental controls on phones so kids can switch off if they want. There are some I know who don’t want it but a lot don’t care.

I have family sharing with my teen and she uses it to find me. It never even crosses my mind to track her. Also when she couldn’t find her phone recently I was able to send the signal noise thing.

Sure as would I have probably, but that’s us, and tbh if I’d had family sharing through my teens maybe I wouldn’t have.

Just putting in the Wo Scotland

It’s what Betty would have wanted

I think have the perfect ornament

Any family group on an iPhone means everyone can track everyone else if the party consents. I’m guessing that’s what this is.

Nice, I see we have the same division of labour.

And so it begins, it’s Christmasssssss.

This whole "that person agrees with me on this single issue and therefore they must clearly agree with me on every single issue" is something you'd expect from a school clique, not a group with actual desires to run the country.

Grow up.

Yeah I’m like you

I’m guessing Marie wouldn’t like it no matter her age but she might find it less weird.

Cos you’re young but not that young.

You’re in a sweet spot where you’re old enough to not have grown up with this and young enough not to have grown up kids. That’s why it’s super bizarre.

My nephews (24,28) and nieces (27) are all part of a family group with my sister, all live on their own (one in Australia) and none have an issue with it.
