Not to mention the very wide push to "Use AI NOW, for EVERYTHING!" in marketing ans many companies, with hardly any though given to safety or where does all the data end up.
And possibly trilions in running costs, not mentioning all the shady training data sources.
As with using the Orion drive for launch and landing on Erth is possible, test nuclear winter is certainly possible. But as with the former, you won't be very popular among the survivors (if any).
Well, when there were no cars using gasoline, there were no gas stations, what a surprise! Sure, there might sometime be a chicken-and-egg problem initially, but saying a new but proven technology is totally unusable…
Finally! While I wish SpaceX (and Blue Origin) well, affordable access to space (thanks to reusable rockets) is far too important to depend on a single (or 2) companies. Also really hope it makes…
Well, that was the catch in the book - you accidentally end up with a plebeian girl getting a smart book meant to educate aristocratic children which includes a connection to a human tutor. The girl grows up into a…
Are the custom chip designs giving them substantial benefits to balance out the overhead, no to mention many companies potentially duplicating the same effort ? I would expect electric vehicle companies to compete on…
Also, Anubis is cute!
Yeah, hard to get a children army going without cheap personalized AI tutors. ;-)
I can imagine basically 3 classes of this: Players can FTL, but big stuff (planets, stations) orbit realistically. FTL only via gates or jump points, other flight only via realistic newtonian physics. No FTL/no intra…
I still think it would be doable if done right. There are so many interesting elements of modern science and hard SF that could be included to introduce interesting game mechanics: - adding various types of radiators…
Well, even in Naval battles the environment is not this static - weather playing a major role in many naval campaigns, from hiding your ship in a rain squall to braving freezing waters during the polar night with the…
You can make more realistic simulations based on the data. Also I am sure this is used for data science.
Street complete does load width - it can be quite useful for example for the fire fighters. They can try to plot some routes based on OSM data, then check if the narrow places are actually there and reach out to the…
Back in 2019 OSM helped us by showing a walking path back from the Shiroyama Park hill in Kagoshima, Japan. It has a beautiful view of the city of Kagoshima and the towering Sakurajima volcano across the bay. Google…
Well, they can just make the printer support multiple cartridges - problem solved.
Maybe fix the system so there are not just two parties & bad parties fail to be voted in?
That's exactly the thing space asteroid hunting telescopes solve - you can put them insuch a heliocentric orbit that they can watch for those asteroids coming from the direction of the sun.
This does happen quite often actually - the logical progression from telegraph to digital Internet networks was interrupted by the invention and deployment of the analog telephone network. IMHO even analog television…
Imperial Guard will welcome them with an open embrace once they reach conscription age! ;-)
Not to mention it would be much cheaper and quicker to launch if it could have any form of robotic or human servicing/tuning available. Designing it to not fail at the start & then work without any help for decades must…
There are hundreds of Dove Satellites with telescopes in the Flock constellations from Planet Lab: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet_Labs Most of them launched on the Falcon 9. They just point down to the Earth by…
Setting a limit on a number of satellites seems rather arbitrary and not very effective to actually achieve a specific result.

Seems like the problem is that Apple is so big it's putting the market under an unhealthy pressure. Kinda reminds my of big supermarket chains pressuring farmers to sell their stock with low to no margin by being the…
