Comment Maybe if the training ones actually looked real (Score 1) 151

The types of training emails I got at my last job were embarrassingly obvious, the sort of obvious that wouldn't get past the most rudimentary spam filter. If they want these to work (big if) maybe use some real, in the wild, recent successful ones as a template rather than just mimic the easy to explain examples in their dumbed down training videos.

Exactly. Code isnâ(TM)t a problem to be solved unless youâ(TM)re paying coders. Someone still needs to express what needs to be done coherently enough to do something useful, and codeâ(TM)s just a tool to get a computer to do that. Take the code away and youâ(TM)re still left with the need for someone to describe the task in enough detail to get something useful out of our new AI overlords, and that someone isnâ(TM)t going to be the ones who think theyâ(TM)re paying too much for coders.

Ancient Krakens Making Self-Portraits? 135

Posted by timothy from the not-sexting-but-octing dept.
First time accepted submitter Sanoj writes "Strange patterns of ichthyosaur bones have been found on an ancient deep-water seabed. One paleontologist has put forward the theory that these could have been the work of giant cephalopods who were eating the swimming dinosaurs and then arranging the vertebrae to resemble their own tentacles. Sound far-fetched? Apparently, the modern octopus also does this."

Police Publish 'An Introduction To PEDO BEAR' 324

Posted by samzenpus from the please-stop-getting-older dept.
According to this article, the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's Department knows that Pedobear is an Internet joke, but that hasn't stopped them from trying to warn the public about him. Their most recent tool in the fight against internet memes is this public safety information bulletin entitled: "An Introduction to PEDO BEAR." I look forward to the bulletin warning parents about the dangers of children playing in Chocolate Rain.

Microsoft Clears MechWarrior4 Free Launch 131

Posted by Soulskill from the done-and-done dept.
Vamman writes "If you've been following the drama surrounding the free release of MechWarrior4, then you're probably aware that the initial announcement, made last summer, was a bit premature. Now, nearly a year since that announcement was made, MekTek Studios has announced that Microsoft Legal has given clearance for the free release of Mechwarrior4. This move by Microsoft Games couldn't come at a better time for the community, as the owners of MechWarrior are attempting a reboot of the franchise."

Endangered Species Condoms 61

Posted by samzenpus from the make-it-growl dept.
The Center for Biological Diversity wants to help put a polar bear in your pants with their endangered species condom campaign. They hope that giving away 100,000 free Endangered Species Condoms across the country will highlight how unsustainable human population growth is driving species to extinction, and instill the sexual prowess of the coquí guajón rock frog, nature's most passionate lover, in the condom users. From the article: "To help people understand the impact of overpopulation on other species, and to give them a chance to take action in their own lives, the Center is distributing free packets of Endangered Species Condoms depicting six separate species: the polar bear, snail darter, spotted owl, American burying beetle, jaguar, and coquí guajón rock frog."
