Looks like somebody beat us to it.

They'd be better typists. And while at it, put arms on top of heads and eyes on the back. You'd be the best basket-baller out there. And give them 3 wankers to compensative for all the jokes classmates will make about them.

Big co's spend a lot of lobbying and bribe money to rid competition. It's more cost effective than doing a better job.

> Ford made the Ford Ranger EV 1998 to 2002

It seemed designed as mostly a company fleet vehicle, not a consumer vehicle. If there is a lot of wait time between deliveries, then you don't need big/efficient batteries. For example, for repairs, the average onsite repair may take two hours. The EV doesn't have to use batteries during that two hours.

Many believe it's a reinforcement mechanism between flowering plants and insects. Once both plants and insects got into the symbiosis pattern, it flowered (pun half intended) as both sides gained a big advantage: one was able to disperse its DNA further, and the other got an easy meal.

Why nature didn't invent it earlier is hard to say. Maybe because most insects have crappy eyesight. One then happened to have good-enough eyesight that they could spot flowers at a distance, and evolution improved both bug eyes and flowers after that.

Indeed! AI can certainly replace lousy human service because it's hard to suck more than the existing batch. Many service desks are just outsourced India call centers who service hundreds of companies, pretending to be dedicated, and know very little about each co's products; they just follow scripts. They are already de-facto bots.

AI is not near ready to replace competent experienced human service desks, but those are too rare anyhow, unfortunately.

They are new at it. You don't get great overnight.

You probably wouldn't unless you're already using Macs for whatever reason. Most of the people who have Apple "servers" are just buying a ton of cheap Mac Minis and putting them on the same network. For a lot of workloads it's apparently not all that bad and Apple's SoCs are already in the server-class in terms of power draw. It's just a matter of not getting the same raw core count, but you can buy a lot of cheap Mac Minis to string together if you're buying a $10,000 Xeon or Epyc processor.

This is probably only something that people running Macs but want a render-farm or something equivalent would consider. It might be niche, but it's mostly Apple reusing the same silicon it's putting in their $20,000 Macs aimed at those same professionals. Why not make a server product at that point. I kind of want to see some special grade, precision-milled aluminum server getting shoved into a rack where it will languish in the darkness for the next decade.

No, absolutely not. I refuse to convict anyone on a crime that an AI may have hallucinated them into. This should under no circumstances be used in a criminal trial. It's not the truth or even necessarily anything close to it.

Any good thing will be abused to the largest extent possible. There's very little that can ultimately stop a dedicated asshole. Their time is usually worth less than yours, but even if it weren't, they'd still out invest you. This won't fix every problem, but it will fix one of them.

Taser company selling body cam transcribers? That's an easy task, most output will resemble "Oooww oouch stop zapping me! Aaaooow!..."

Reminds me of when I worked for an environmental cleanup company that was eventually bought out by a chemical company. The company was thus paid to clean up its own messes, via Fed Superfund money.

> sadness in the fact that they're launching it to an equatorial site, so we don't get to see the fascinating hydrocarbon seas

Why is that? Is it to simplify communications? The lakes would certainly be more interesting.

researchers have discovered the more memorable an image, the more likely a person is to think they have been looking at it for longer than they actually have.

Goatse is the secret to immortality!

Happens to me when I take off my undies.
