From @sif@cathode.church (fediverse):
7" Apple Watch just dropped.
lol, like phys.org (somewhere between journalism and breathless huckterism) has never got crucial facts or inferred conclusions wrong.
College press releases, science journalism, and medical journalism THRIVE on hyperbole and overexaggerated / misunderstood conclusions like this.

Yup. Davis' or Betteridge's Law: "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no."
Agreed; I was going to say the same about _worth_. Markets may price their stock there. But I am not seeing a path or rev / profit model thatâ(TM)s making that make sense.

Iâ(TM)m aware of long-lived companies who got advised to: sell off then lease back their real estate, reduce cash on hand myriad ways, changing buying habits (so inventory value on the books plunges), etc. Literally, theyâ(TM)ve been coached to eliminate every bit of those decades of reserves.
When a bad thing happens, the company dies.

I can and do agree with you 100% on the rest, but this made me LoL. Enterprise code being documented is a unicorn.
Frankly, Iâ(TM)ve thought about seeing what caliber of docs come out of handing some AI a codebase. Even if itâ(TM)s half-wrong, itâ(TM)d beat the nuthinâ(TM) I usually get.
Yeah itâ(TM)s not arm, itâ(TM)s all the secondary hardware (a) being proprietary by (b) a company that zealously hoards IP.
Nah, every GenX nerd can attest, T2 was the liquid-metal shape-shifting robot Skynet sent back from the future to kill Sarah & John Connor.
if only we had a word for adaptation like this, like Evolving.
It may be a trite saying, but it's as true in education as it is in a gym. If you don't exercise your brain, it's not going to improve.
There's a reason weightlifters don't use a forklift or crane to pick up the barbells and do a dozen reps. The problem is not that the weights are in need of lifting. And that's the same problem with homework. The teacher doesn't need a stack of 5 page reports; what they need is for their students to practice using their brains.
Unfortunately the education system is designed to evaluate output instead of process. It's easier to grade a paper or a test, not evaluate a demonstration of knowledge. It's always been ripe for cheating, but now the cheat tools are everywhere and made legitimate by techbros demanding AI productivity. So either teaching will change, or we'll head straight for idiocracy and nobody will be left with the skills to wonder why it all went to hell.
Sportsball (all flavors) are fast moving high churn cut throat businesses. Unions abound among them. Their owners still end up being billionaires.
Movies bla bla bla cut throat, yet SAG and Directors and gaffers and grips and key and etc often are guilded or unionized. Right now, I hear a lot about how the system has shifted until careers are challenging... but they'd be worse without their unions and the unions are their only hope in renormalizing to a living-wage thing.
Your point is invalid.
Science is to computer science as hydrodynamics is to plumbing.
