Surely.
The great example is phones - I'd love to see a data driven study on network quality/cost to users for cell phones in Africa. They largely skipped the whole "stringing wires all over the fucking place" step and jumped straight to cell phones. How has that worked for them compared to mature hardwire telephone systems in developed countries? Pros? Cons? Long term benefits/costs?

Holy shit new product idea, you've heard of chocolate milk...

Make sure the cap on the bottle is red. You literally will not be able to keep it in stock.

Too bad about [hect]ares.

They also said they were complying with the GPL, so their trustworthiness is at zero right now. Maybe when they learn not to lie and steal, they can be taken seriously again.

How are those job opening figures corrected for phenomena like positions corporations have no intent of filling whatsoever? It's estimated that up to half of posted jobs are fake.

1. is not a significant problem. There are only a couple of species which survive entirely on mosquitoes, they are not common, and there are many kinds of mosquito. 2. is even less of a problem, there's nothing else just waiting in the wings to upstage mosquitoes as they don't compete with anything else.

His comment is reasonable, but I don't understand what it has to do with demoralization.

Boomers were the "me" generation, but the kids who followed them are definitely greedier.

It doesn't say they got arrested, but apparently the person in question didn't turn off the Bluetooth device when asked to. Ignoring or disobeying the instructions of flight attendants is a federal offense.

There were movies but they weren't very good.

From the 1700s, Magic lanterns had moving parts, and there were magic lantern shows.

The Phenakistoscope was a kind of simple movie, and was projected on a stage by the mid 1800s.

The Zoopraxiscope was used with a projector from 1880 in public lectures. It is of interest because it used actual photographs.

The Kinetoscope was a little later, by 1892.

If your company relies on "oral tradition" to maintain documentation, then your company may not survive with or without AI.

"Oral tradition" is the engineering process of knowledge being lost. That is to say it's not engineering.

Maybe he should have made a backup earlier.

Apple's got many faults, but their hardware has a very premium feel. I presume this is where Dell's additional hundred bucks went, because Apple's used to doing that and Dell isn't. They think they are, but they aren't normally as good at it. But they're going to deliver this PC with Windows, and there might be Linux issues — there's no way to know until it's in reviewers' hands exactly what hardware is actually used around the parts we know about. And unless you specifically need Windows, it's very hard to imagine getting excited about spending more money to run that.

I have to admit that I find the lack of a headphone jack offensive, but I wouldn't even consider buying a Dell that's trying to be a Macintosh over an actual Macintosh, and I say that as someone with very little respect for Apple. I don't hate Dell, but I've never been impressed by them either. I would describe them as "less terrible than HP".

The fact that it's a garbage off-brand speaker makes it more likely that it's possible, because people with valuable brands are the ones who are most likely to want to prevent you from changing it, and also the most likely to actually design their own product internals or have them designed to spec. The cheap brands are most likely to grab a complete PCB off the "shelf", or even more likely than that, just have their crappy brand put on someone else's complete product.

But, and it's a big one, they won't be offering the user the tools to do it with. They'd have to figure out who actually made it and/or what chip is on it in order to identify the tool, then they'd have to track it down, then they'd have to maybe short something on the PCB because it's not necessarily as easy as holding down a button, they'd have to do it on a windows PC or at least by attaching a USB hub to a windows VM so that when the device inevitably changes IDs during the reflashing procedure it remains connected, or with some kind of reflashing tool which is cheap but which they definitely don't own.
