so they really and truly get a transformative benefit from these projects
Except that they don't. Data centers create a tiny number of jobs and not for the people who usually are looking for a job in rural communities, they don't draw in visitor, tourists or other kinds of customers for local business, they don't create any product that the community would benefit from - what benefit is he talking about, much less "transformative" ?
I have. With additional complexities, namely moving airplanes. You are clearly a clueless idiot full of yourself. Not everything that people like you find "very hard" actually is very hard. It just takes somebody with an actual clue (you do not qualify) to do it.
If you see that as a mistake, you are a moron and ignoring reality.
Reality is this: Many of the latest "LLM discovered" security bugs would have been found with entirely non-AI conventional tools. These tools were not used. And, incidentally, non-LLM "AI" does basically play no role in software security.
they "understand that Ms. Crump did not ask to become part of this investigation," and that they recognize the "frustration of having a vehicle towed and subsequently damaged."
So many words for "lol, yeah that's a them problem, we don't give a shit".
That this is even a matter for insurance is pathetic. The police caused this to happen, it needs to pay the bill, in full, including any costs the innocent person had for the time they kept the vehicle illegally.
Once cases like this drain the police budgets, they'll have an incentive to actually do a good job instead of fucking around and offloading the cost of their stupidity on ordinary people.
No, this is *exactly* the kind of thing I want AI to do. Clean my house. Straighten my house. Put things away. Fold clothes. Free up those hours so I can do something more fun, more interesting, or more productive.
Yes. But folding clothes is not high on that list. Of the entire wash cycle, that's literally the easiest part. Now if it could put together all the socks into matching pair and store them away, we might be talking.
People are going to want to buy this and keep using it for literal decades, because they'll see it as an appliance, not an electronic toy.
Other companies have moved us away from that model. It used to be that you buy a washing machine and you're done for most of your life. Ok, maybe you'll need a second one one day but that's about it. Not anymore. I'm on my third fridge since moving into this house a decade ago. They barely offer repairs anymore and it's often cheaper to buy new. It's ridiculous, really.
If it would iron, fold and put away, I might think about it. Folding is not the time-consuming part there.
to shooing a cat away when it jumps onto a table
Lol, yeah. 99% of cats will ignore that.
In comparison, in yesterday's front page, Toyota sold in 9 months less than what BYD sold in one month.
Including Lexus, Toyota sold 309,766 battery electric vehicles (BEVs) globally through the first nine months of 2026
That is how far BYD and Tesla are leaving everyone else in the dust. Germany and Japan are in deep trouble.
Yes to both questions about people, but both are engineers. I do not think technical illiteracy is getting larger. It was always very large, with brief periods where more people had basic knowledge about some specific tech as the alternative was simply no or no meaningful access to that technology.
It is bot historically and currently true that most people are incompetent and suck at risk management.
Of course that's never really been the case, but now that any bozo with $200 in their pocket can just pay an AI to find every possible security hole and report back, it's REALLY not the case.
By far not "every possible", but enough to massively increase the pool of attackers with a newly discovered vulnerability. And since most software is missing redundant security (because most software does not qualify as a product of professional engineering) this is far too easy. All engineering disciplines had to eventually accept that the thing that protects you is redundancy, because mistakes cannot be brough down enough. IT is not there at all, but it will not have a choice now.
There is. You read the standard, you implement the standard. And then you do an once-over over all time zones each year to check which standard they are following and if and when they are switching. Probably less than one competent engineer. But apparently, either MS does not have competent engineers or does not want to spend money on this. And hence they have a ton of egg on their faces. Again.
So? My comment was specifically about LLMs.
This looks more like pie-in-the-sky announcement to capture attention, than any serious attempt at innovation. Looks like Apple management has no vision and no idea where to take the company, and this is just throwing shit at the wall and see what sticks.
If Apple had a vision of an "Apple Home", they would have revived the Airport line as the first step in customer's home. Then, rather than the unrealistic laundry folding robot, they would release a set of more usable, finely tuned, home appliances, like coffee machines, lighting and aircon switches, curtain motors, roomba-like floor cleaning bots, etc, and then have the Airport as their nexus with the Home app on iPhone as control interface. Add an IR light in the Airport to control the TV. That could be something.
Boycott Scumbags.
And that is how you do it if you have a clue. Not even expensive, just requires understanding.
MAC user's dynamic debugging list evaluator? Never heard of that.
