Still can’t make his tiny mushroom look bigger

Sure, but “being dumb” isn’t an exclusive club for people with low intelligence. There plenty of very smart people that are also dumb. Hell, most AIs could be classified as smart but dumb.

Wouldn’t the knock-on effects of a reduced attention span pretty much look like ‘dumber’?

We really ought to be calling those ‘illegal military operations’

I’ve been hearing that the “changed handle” thing isn’t valid, because when an account handle is changed you can still see the original on the user’s profile (and that wasn’t the case for the littlestjeff account). With all the misinformation flying around, I have no idea about the accuracy of this though.

I’m gonna guess 17:25:20

It’s not an “if” detector, it’s a “how much” detector. It looks like it’s using the LED chamber to light the film in a consistent way, and then the phone camera measures the color change to quantify how much radiation it was exposed to.

Aren’t we?

That’s what you’d call a negligent discharge, not accidental. The first time I saw the video of the thug taking Alex’s gun, I immediately noticed and said, “Why the hell is his finger on the trigger?”

There is a concept taught to anyone handling firearms professionally: you DO NOT put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to fire.

One aspect to consider is exactly what data these devices are exfiltrating from your network. You usually can’t see the contents of the telemetry sent, but given that a LOT of smart devices have cameras and/or microphones, do you really trust that your IoT devices are not sending back audio and or video recordings of the inside of your house?

That’s an interesting point, and leads to a reasonable argument that if an AI is trained on a given open source codebase, developers should have free access to use that AI to improve said codebase. I wonder whether future license models might include such clauses.

• crap
• dookie
• deuce
• the term ‘steaming pile’ is almost always used to evoke shit, even if not directly referring to shit
• grogan

I don’t know if poopreport still exists, but if you’re really interested in creative words for shit, that site is/was an absolute gold mine.

“It’s called colorized hyperspectral X-ray imaging with multi-metal targets, or CHXI MMT for short,” said project lead Edward Jimenez, an optical engineer

This guy isn’t allowed to name things anymore.

That’s assuming that an oncoming car wouldn’t swerve at all if a cyclist entered their path. Dangerous or unpredictable behavior by anyone on a road puts everyone in the area at risk.

There’s always the Jewel Cooler:

I mean, it is 100% discrimination against people who are too old to do the job, yes.

They build this picture from many other sources besides ad clicks, so the point is to obscure that. Problem is, if you’re only obscuring your ad click behavior, it should be relatively easy to filter out of the model.

I hadn’t clicked the link yet, but Concrete Donkey told me what it was immediately

15 square meters isn’t the same as 15m×15m, it’d be a little smaller than 4m×4m. Still a big hole.

I was under the impression that the chemicals involved in recycling paper products, combined with the fact that virgin paper is almost entirely sourced from managed, quick-growing tree farms, make paper recycling also undesirable?
