You mean caning treatment. The word you used means stuffing in a small metal container.

More likely it's the bots that trained google with the wrong answers. I wouldn't be surprised if Recaptcha is more likely to find a bot correct than a human.

Fair, but in the business world of people who buy that type of software, being the official authors of WordPress does give them cachet. The Automatic.CSS name was absolutely picked to piggyback off it.

Not just possibly, but absolutely valid. This is exactly the kind of thing trademarks exist to prevent. They aren't claiming the word "automatic", they're claiming that naming a framework that's meant to work with their product (WordPress) a name that differs from their own by only 1 letter, particularly such a non-obvious difference (many people won't notice the existence of an extra 't') is meant to cause confusion an think it's an official part of their offerings. Because it is. If the other company doesn't change the name they will be destroyed in court. And frankly they'll deserve it. Whoever chose that name was either a total idiot with no concept of the law, or a scammer who meant to prey on Autmattic's good name.

Turnstile hasn't turned on me yet but Recaptcha is utter garbage. It get the "pick the boxes with these things" one regularly. And when I pick the things it tells me I picked wrong. And again. And again. Google's quality control is... non-existent.

The idea is that it's always on your face and hands free, and due to the location of the display you don't need to look down- it overlays your normal field of vision with additional information (that's the entire point of AR). But yes, other than overlaying your actual field of vision there's nothing it could do that a phone couldn't.

I'm more curious how the display works. I had Google Goggles. The display was nearly impossible to see and gave me a headache going crosseyed trying. If the hardware can overlay well, and be easy to see, someone will write the software for it eventually. If it can't, then no amount of software will work.

Really the glasses itself should be dumb. Put all the smarts in a smartphone app with a plugin architecture. Have it voice controlled where you say a keyword then parse your next sentence for a command. Send the video to the phone for processing via BT, and let the app do whatever it needs to do, and individual plugins send overlays up. That's enough to get a lot of useful stuff out of it.

If you tap in the word, that's a bug, you probably typoed the last letter. If you Swype it in, that's intended behavior- you're undoing your last action either way (1 Swype vs 1 tap). Swype behaved the same way,

Apparently punctuation in texts means anger to teenagers.

Every time I see a goofy new feature from Mozilla, I'm reminded how Firefox started as Netscape without the bloat. That was a great product. I wonder what happened to it.

The original Tron was fantastic... if you were an '80s computer geek. If your experience with computers starts in the '90s or later, it's hard to relate.

Tron Legacy went all metaphysical. Metaphysics is where science fiction goes to die, and die it did. Tron Ares is a fitting sequel to Tron Legacy, which is to say: hot garbage with nifty special effects.

Not sure what Intel contributes that they could change to closed source without harming themselves. Closed source doesn't make it into the Linux kernel and with very few exceptions doesn't make it into the Linux distros. I can think of few Intel product lines where that wouldn't be destructive to their market share.

Wow, you can click the link to my web page and make a veiled threat to dox me. I guess my estimate of your intelligence was... right on target.

The diagnoses were merged because the evidence had begun to suggest that they were different severities of the same ailment. If the evidence has begun to suggest that we're dealing with fundamentally different ailments then the diagnoses should be split accordingly. If not then you're shuffling names for the sake of politics and it's not a good day in science when that happens.

I've always wondered how well Slashdot's moderation system actually works. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to find out.
