2·5 months agoYeah, that’s probably a better phrasing.
People weren’t using them ambiguously, drive manufactures picked a non-standard unit to lie with on their boxes, and then tricked courts into going along with their shit because it was the old case of money vs truth.
2·5 months agoIt’s the usb-c of standards!
top/bottom, clearly.
2·6 months agoI love everything about that. Even a small tech demo with like one kind of item and a single quest would be really cool.
3·8 months agoThank you, I had no idea the first phone emoji characters were a third party add-on. That explains how they got there, since Apple is pretty notorious for not including people shaped things in their art.
The original emojis were white before the yellow and darker tones were added in 2015. Look up Katrina Parrott for the backstory. In short, before yellow was the default, White was the only option, and that’s kinda racist, and was only 9 years ago.
Yellow was simply a neutral addition to emojis that matched well with the existing yellow smiley face (which that French asshole keeps charging people for).
Thanks for questioning your assumptions. Further reading if you’re interested:

Yes, but this is American Cartels. We can have them, too, and ours are better! 😡
Used to be, “the tragedy of the commons” didn’t quite so literally mean an attack on the common resources.
That’s not very reassuring, we’re still only one computer bug away from that situation.
Presumably she wasn’t identified as a violent criminal because the facial recognition system didn’t associate her duplicate with that particular crime. The system would be capable of associating any set of crimes with a face. It’s not like you get a whole new face for each different possible crime. So, we’re still one computer bug away from seeing that outcome.
It’s an extremely compelling product story full of market segmentation advertisers dream of!
H100 isn’t $40, it’s $40,000. You’re making the Bloomberg Mistake: it costs $4,000,000,000 - four billion.
I can’t wait to see what clownshoes nonsense way he absolutely fucks this one up, but that’ll take a lot of liquidity he probably doesn’t have access to unless he gets the $45bn Tesla payout.
How in the fuck did you find that, and where is the rest of the text on the page?
That, finally, explains the pink sauce lady!
Back in my day, we called that “hard-mode plagiarism.” They can’t punish you if they can’t find a specific plagiarized source!
Which one?!
They were so close on the acronym: “Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers” should be “Detecting Ominous Location Trackers” (DOLT). (“Obnoxious” also works but unfairly downplays the stalking/domestic-violence angle.)
I wish I had a decent explanation. But instead, I have Windows 11’s shiny new Taskbar configuration menu that politely warns me that showing seconds on the clock takes more power. Right under the “Show Copilot” button.
These fucks are fucked.
Is it really a solution, though, or is it just GIGO?
For example, GPT-4 is about as biased as the medical literature it was trained on, not less biased than its training input, and thereby more inaccurate than humans:

That’s infuriating, I was going to recommend that. It gets cancelled because it doesn’t make money, but it saves so much money by preventing people from using a higher acuity of care than they need.
