They refused to send a model and asked him not to review until the new software was out. So they knew. He bought one anyway.

Don’t encourage the behaviour. As the saying goes… Give a man a fish and you’ve fed him for a day… Teach a man to fish and you’ve fed him for life.
This a huge step back for transparency with Meta (shocker). Access to this data is important for a variety of reasons, and using the recent EU laws as an excuse is deplorable (again, shocker from Meta).
It’s clear the data companies were left alone for too long to rule the schoolyard. It’s going to take some time to treat them and others what decorum looks like without throwing an absolute hissy fit.
Here’s hoping the EU, which seems to be the only teacher on the playground willing to discipline anyone, will set them straight.
😂 As a Canuck, we use both. But the computer term is definitely Kernel. Unless we’re marching out on a battlefield…

Would you rather watch content in your native language, or subtitled? If you read translated content, it’s fine. But it’s not the same as hearing something performed for you. Might be hard to grasp if your language is largely auditory and written, rather than visual and emotive.
Just because sign language is a visual language, does not mean reading is an equivalent. There is a ton of nuance and feelitghst goes into communicating through sign language that is not possible through text alone.
Beyond the communication piece, there is respect of an individual who natively speaks a language, and the importance of keeping the language alive.
Someone give this writer a raise for not using AI to describe a new algorithm.
It’s articles like this that make me glad there are numerous horses in the race.
Autonomous driving is an incredibly complex problem. We have people like Musk who thought they could throw money at the problem and have it solved in a few years, with disastrous results.
We’ve lost Uber, and Cruise is flagging. Both had been touted as examples to follow. Both have had some serious safety problems from moving too quickly and lacking caution.
Behind all of this is Waymo. Plodding along, gathering vast amounts of data and experience and iterating slowly.
I think they, out of all these players, understand the stakes at hand, and the potential profit on the other end. But you have to get it right. It has to be nearly perfect, because people need to trust it, and our emotions are fickle.
The idea of the product is really great. The cost is prohibitive for all but major corporate customers.
Add in Google’s track record of killing products… just like this… and why would you invest?
Jamboard needs to be a tablet companion app first, and the hardware can follow. If they’re going to keep coming up with these halo products, then they need to support them for the long term. They also need to be willing to bite the bullet and give these away to lock people into Workspace because it’s unique and no one else does it.
Now it’s another reason to not buy in.
If you read through the stories that define them, it makes a lot more sense. Blood and sacrifice are intertwined with life and righteousness. God is holy and set apart, and can’t be in the presence of less – so their lives and habits are built around remaining in relationship to their God.
So the careful handling of death, food, and blood makes perfect sense from that worldview, whether you personally agree with it or not.
A wee bit aggressive there.
Read the rest of the thread. “I can’t boycott what I don’t use” is everywhere. A boycott is more than money, it’s getting the message out there, which was the intent of my post.
Whether you go to Starbucks or not is kind of irrelevant. The broader population needs to know how Starbucks is anti-worker. They are happy to take more money from the consumer, and push the “partner” narrative, but it falls apart when the partners want to be treated with dignity.
That’s a story everyone needs to hear before they spend $5+ on a drink.
What I like about this posturing is that the big tech dogs have given up trying to fight the EU. They know that the law makers are serious about enforcing their rules, and the market/fines are too large to ignore.
They’ve moved fully over trying to circumvent the law, or get exemptions. Historically, the EU has not been kind to that either.
I really enjoyed Equilibrium (2002). Is it derivative of 1984 and Fahrenheit 451? Absolutely. But so was V for Vendetta.
It’s a B level film that still packs a punch today, particularly in a dystopian era of politics. The message of learning to connect continues to be relevant in a hyper connected, but shallow relational landscape.
Might be a play on the word “see” here.
Wars are distant things to North America. A product that is viewed only through glass or a screen. There has never been conventional war on modern north American soil, so it is something people go to, but not a devastation that really affects day to day life.
I’d liken the attitude more to Hollywood movies: an export of American (US) culture.
So the understanding that this is people’s literal homes. That life is finite, and war is atrocious is disconnected. I can watch Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, Black Hawk Down, etc. to get a taste of war, but when I’m done with it, I want it to resolve and be over.
That’s not possible for Ukrainians. Their country is still occupied. The devastation on their land will continue for decades.
Even if they crash through the lines next week, and sweep aside Russian defences like dust there are decades of rebuilding and de-mining ahead.
The cultural West must be willing to be in that journey every step of the way, or we risk another radicalized generation in the future that heard the promises, but lived the broken actions.
All in my opinion, of course, from the safety of my home.
It’s an interesting product of a western world that hasnt really seen war in 70 years. It’s always been far away.
We seek instant gratification, when in reality these are people’s lives. It should move slowly, especially against heavily mined positions. I’m wondering if we’ll see much progress until the F-16s enter the field to gain air support for the ground troops.
Google One gives you an itemized look at what is using your storage space. All of the Google Apps are represented, device backups, and individual apps that are using Drive for storage too. I’d presume it would point you in the right direction, without needing to manually download everything and sift through.
