This whole process seems very dumb and not thought through.

If someone is not responsive in the back of a vehicle when the ride ends. the vehicle should just BE DRIVEN TO THE NEAREST EMS LOCATION, either the fire department or hospital. Calling the city EMS and wasting their time is nonsensical when the person IS IN A VEHICLE THAT DRIVES ITSELF ALREADY.

Then, if they get to the EMS and it turns out the person is just asleep, then charge them a few hundred dollars and reimburse the city.

I am deep in the AI space

And I can tell you, the number of companies that have deployed AI to production well, to any kind of degree, are very slim.

The problem isn't the technology. Its that most companies are staffed and run by incompetants, and are unable to change at the pace needed to get benefit from AI

The disruption caused by AI is going to be felt as existing Fortune 1000 companies all start being disrupted by other companies with half of the operating expenses.

N/T

Ironically, with the current state of affairs and AI slop everywhere.. I am finding more and more than the curated feed of personal connections I get on Facebook is much more aligned with what I want to be doing on social media. I am spending more time there again.

The way the tech works is the camera in the glasses itself is looking for the extra light coming from the LED, which is of a very specific frequency. If the light is not picked up by the camera within the first second of video, then the glasses are disabled. In this way, you can't disable the light, or cover it with tape, or drill it, or anything else - because if the camera can not see it, then the glasses shut off

When you post idiot comments like that when it is clear you never even watched the ad in the post, you look like a tool

You didn't even watch the ad, and that is self evident.

99% of the ad is just panning around between Google tools and making jokes.

You are ranting and raving about nothing.

It started as a very easy to use wiki, for internal knowledge at a company. It still is good for that use case.

But they tried to bolt on everything else under the sun to it, and it now tries to compete with Trello, Asana, Monday, JIRA, and everything else... and now apparently GMail as well.

The more a company tries to do in Notion ("because we already have it"), the more messy and unusable of a mess it becomes.

All of the software on all of these devices comes from random anonymous people from all over the world.

All of the software on everyone's phone and PC and server is based on open source coming from all over the world.

The rule is there for economic protectionism.

That is the reality.

I have zero interest in getting looped into Meta's sub-standard AI and relying on it for stuff when the rest of my ecosystem is all wired into Gemini and Claude.

When will a glasses maker launch with OPEN SUPPORT for what AI assistant you want to use with it? Why does it need to be tied to a specific vendor?

AVERAGE temperature matters.

The gulf stream is a moderator. It keeps Britian and eastern Europe warmer in the winter than it deserves to be, but in the summer, has little effect.

What we are seeing now is a heat dome over the summer. IE, the AVERAGE ANNUAL temperature of Europe is going up, not the daily temperature.

If and when the gulf stream shuts down what will happen is Britian and western Europe will freeze in the winter.. in fact it may start to become covered in ice. Go look at any globe and look at where Britian exists compared to Russia and Canada, it is further north than Labrador. For all rights, it should be fozen in ice all winter. The reason it is mild, is because of the gulf stream.

While I don't disagree, it is beyond their control. At the time they released this, the maximum lifetime for a TLS certificate is 398 days.

It is an ongoing problem with no quick solution that is going to get worse, as the standard is changing the maximum time to be only 47 days. This means that not only will your software have to be able to refresh its trusted cert once a month, it will have to be able to phone home at least once a month in order to do that... a device disconnected for two months in a row will need manual intervention.

I guarantee this is the big difference between what Bernie's bill says versus what the administration is proposing. In one case, you have a bill saying that the people receive ownership without having to incur the risk of an investment. The other proposal is very likely that the government it has to invest at the same valuation that all these VCs did.
