Although if apple didn't have Siri, then they would likely allow other voice assistants on the platform, and you'd have 'dictation by alexa' instead.
Here is a news report with video footage of one such incident (the part where the victim is decapitated is clipped from the report): https://youtu.be/3IwhsYfnNvs I am personally aware of quite a few speedboat related…
False negatives are more worrying. On a small speedboat, a common cause of death is that the captain falls overboard while the boat is doing a sharp turn at speed. The boat then does a 360 circle and within 10 seconds…
You should also design all your code to be rollbackable... But for the very rare case that a rollback won't solve the problem (eg. An outage is caused by changes outside your organisation's control), you also need to be…
Obviously you do everything possible to stop an outage like this happening... But when it inevitably does, you should be prepared for a full system simultaneous restart. Ie. So that no 'bad' signals or data from the old…
Twitter indexing was basically real-time - you could see a tweet within a few minutes of it being made Mastodon seems to take many days to appear, if at all. I suspect Google just scrapes the webui occasionally and…
I never really saw how making the counters random helped fight bots. Anyone who wants to know if their bot armies upvotes are counted can just choose 2000 articles, upvote a random half, then see if the half they…
They didn't give permission for the internet service to launch there. But they did give overflight permission.
Remember that Loon, the USA Google balloon project, sent similar balloons around the world, including over China. They didn't shoot our balloons down.
Ask someone local. What's available and rules vary really widely city to city. What makes sense financially also depends on your building construction, climate and fuel prices, which also depends a lot on location.
I just filtered for the word yeti. I don't want a yeti hopper...
All of those things look pretty 'fixable' in the game of cat and mouse ...
I really want to see ssd manufacturers offer a decent warranty... This drive costs $100, and will last 10 years or until 100TB has been written to it, as long as you keep it within the specified…
It's a shame this is US only. Typically companies that do that will later release in ~10 more countries, or maybe even 50 more, and then give up. If you live in Mozambique, the chances of ever being able to buy this are…
Sketch of a design to solve this: Company can upload some prompts to OpenAI, and be given 'prompt tokens'. Then companies client side app can run a query with '<prompt_token>[user data]<other_prompt_token>'. They may…
It's the chicken and egg problem... If you started a new card provider today, you'd need to get consumers onboard, banks onboard, merchants onboard, and every card machine in the world replaced to accept your new card…
PayPal does the same... For non-us citizens, USD's either incur a conversation fee to another currency, or an international withdrawal fee. There is no way to get money out without paying one or other fee.
The patch causes a different root filesystem to be used. Specifically, if the kernel command line specifies a root filesystem that must be used, then that one will always be mounted, even if other devices are available.
> could have involved the use of your phone number to send and receive phone calls Surely from their logs they know if these calls/texts happened? If, during that period no calls/sms's occurred, then there has been no…
I think no company should be allowed limited liability/bankruptcy protection. If a company can't pay its debts, the shareholders should be required to pay.
ChatGPT seems to do better on all these prompts...
All of these things are kinda a necessary consequence of the way the app works. It's a social network... You should consider everything you do on it to be public...
This is a neat shower thought... But I don't think it's worth writing an article until you have some results.
I'm fairly confident that something like this wouldn't have been discovered in the USA. 14,000 deaths by asthma like causes spread over 10 years in a population of 300 million is going to disappear into the noise. There…
There are undoubtedly more things like this waiting to be discovered. Killing large numbers of people 'statistically' is easy when nobody can identify a direct cause for any individual death. See: air pollutants. I…
