Surprised it was rejected for infringing trademarks

I read that as “he is being prepared for the coroner”

Forget about the AI. There is so much wrong with this.

1. If it gets it wrong, either false positive or false negative, then there are serious consequences. This means there is no way it can “play it safe” with an answer.
2. I don’t trust that it’s not capturing and storing data. The risk of a “highly personal” data being leaked is completely unwarranted.
3. It works from a photo, therefore it’s unlikely to pick up much more than you can see by eye. You’d be better off just learning what to look for.
4. It won’t detect STIs with no visual symptoms, so provides an entirely false sense of confidence, potentially increasing the risks of those STIs to the general population.
5. Let’s say it works perfectly, and the AI algorithm runs completely locally with no data being transferred to the cloud or being captured/stored. Do you want to have someone you don’t trust about being honest about STIs taking a photo of your genitals?

That’s what I can come up with in 10 seconds. Feel free to add to the list, I’m sure it’s not complete…

It’s because it’s on dark mode

There’s also work showing sheep can maintain the grass under the panels while the solar panels providing shade.

I still think over carparks or rooftops is better, but it shouldn’t detract from using farmland. We need to phase out fossil fuels as fast as possible.

You’re my wife now Dave

Bobby’s mum and dad decided that the only way to pull off a Sunday afternoon quickie with their 10-year-old son in the apartment was to send him out on the balcony and order him to report on all the neighbourhood activities.

The boy began his commentary as his parents put their plan into action.

“There’s a car being towed from the parking lot,” he said. “An ambulance just drove by.” A few moments passed.

“Looks like the Anderson’s have company,” he called out. “Matt`s riding a new bike, and the Coopers are having sex.”

Mom and dad shot up in bed. “How do you know that?” the startled father asked.

“Their kid is standing out on the balcony too,” his son replied.

How does that work out in terms of energy consumption though?

If NVMe is at least 10x faster, but consumes 5x more power, it will use less energy to read or write the same amount of data overall.

Does my car with a leaky sunroof and heater that’s stuck on full count?

What you are looking for is a handy man, you used to find them in the yellow pages, but try your favourite search provider?

My search came up with task rabbit uk as the first sponsored result…

Is it just me that gets triggered by these US companies which exist only to be an IT based middle man? Like mini cabs existed before Uber, but everyone acts like they never knew these things existed?

Agreed about the data farming, but I would recommend reading this if you haven’t already. Not properly implementing the conventions is basically step 1 in that article.

I actively avoid Cadburys after Kraft took it over More Info. Wouldn’t say it’s a full boycott, because I do have a Crunchie every now and again (when Cadburys is the only thing on discount), but it has been more than 10 years now.

Thing is I just bought a box of miniture heroes and I’d say the chocolate has gone seriously downhill since I stopped buying it. Wondering if its just my taste that’s changed or if anyone else agrees?

“We are dropping carplay and android auto because mobile phones distract the driver”

But the dashboard looks like this

When they’ve reached end of life for the car, they are still useful.

EVs require high energy density so they get replaced when they don’t store enough energy for their weight. However for grid storage, weight doesn’t really matter (at least not as much) so a battery with 80% of its original capacity is a good (and cheap) solution.

When the market is mature, it will good for car owners who need to replace their batteries because the old one still has value.

Disagree. PR means no local support. PR means city, particularly London, centred politics. That’s already bad enough - look at HS2 which was supposed to be for the north, but has ended up being an upgrade between London and Birmingham only.

The fairest system is some sort of ranked choice, you can vote for the party you agree with most, without risking ‘wasting’ your vote and still get local representation.

Being the first to introduce the ban by 5 years has driven a lot of zero carbon transport investment to the UK. If it changes to the same as the EU, then why not set up there. Can totally understand why Ford UK is pissed, it wont be around much longer now as Ford focus investment in Germany.

I imagine this is how Apple would justify it - if there are internal screws or shields missing then it’s a sign that it has been repaired previously by a 3rd party. It might work fine, but it’s not to the original Apple specification.

The Apple store don’t want to take responsibility for those repairs so refuse to do further work in case it leaves them with liability.

This is a massive waste and is effectively a subsidy for the fossil fuel industry. There are already existing laws for battery and electronics manufacturers to be responsible for their waste. Why isn’t the fossil fuel industry responsible for paying to clean up its waste (CO2)?

The technology sucks too (no pun intended), even carbon capture at source isn’t that efficient when the concentrations are high. Trying to capture CO2 from air where is around 400 parts per million (0.04%) is a complete waste of time and money.

For those interested, these guys have done the math. Using Exxon’s target for future cost of this technology ($100/tonne which is already 1/10th of todays costs, $1000/tonne), it will cost $3.6 trillion a year to absorb how much CO2 we produce. More if we want CO2 levels to come down.

The only effective way to combat CO2 is to stop digging up fossil fuels.

I mean the idea for WEI is to combat bots and AI so it isn’t really surprising AI is going to be against it.

But seriously, Bard is just consolidating what it finds on the internet (it’s not intelligent), so all this really says is that there are plenty of web articles against AI in its search database.

I remember international flights that had several outside cameras, one looking slightly down and forward was the best by far, although most of the flight it was just clouds and during landing that one turned to face forward so you couldn’t see the runway. Haven’t seen them recently though.
