"you can detect pixel color for nudity there are several apis available already"

    You mean you can detect something that may be human skin by checking if a pixel falls within a certain color range. You still need human eyes to know what part is being detected, or if it's even detecting human skin and not something else.

1) A penis has a thin high contrast shadow crossing it - Picture may be taken (AI gets thrown off by the shadow, making the penis a "not a penis")

2) Somebody is being assaulted - Nudity detected, ACCESS DENIED (even though everybody is fully clothed, and it's a robbery in progress, some random object in the background gets misidentified as a penis because it's taller than it is wide, and it just happens to look vaguely phallic)

  Society is being done a great disservice by throwing around the term 'AI' like an angry rabid monkey throws it's poo. At this stage, a gnat is far more capable of real thought than 'AI'.

"Because in a previous age he would have been buying the "X-ray specs" from the back of comic books!"

(The "lenses" consist of two layers of cardboard with a small hole about a quarter-inch (6 millimeters) in diameter punched through both layers. The user views objects through the holes. A feather is embedded between the layers of each lens. The vanes of the feathers are so close together that light is diffracted, causing the user to receive two slightly offset images. For instance, if viewing a pencil, one would see two offset images of the pencil. Where the images overlap, a darker image is obtained, giving the illusion that one is seeing the graphite embedded within the body of the pencil. Newer versions utilize manufactured diffraction lenses instead of feathers.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... - for those who weren't dumb enough to fall for this classic scam, but still couldn't help but wonder what someone saw while wearing them.

Not exactly x-ray vision going on in that video. It just means that the outer garment is somewhat translucent to IR light. I've seen a similar effect happen with garments in visible spectrum/white light depending on intensity, angle, and how tightly woven the fabric is.

  Basically, a whole lot of nothing.

The ironic thing is, a good lions share of the Holy Books of the "Big 3" Abrahamic religions are NSFW. Words like "whore" and even "pissith" is present in the Bible. Among other things there is graphic violence, and some very nasty sexual stuff *cough*rape*cough*.

  But it's OK for kids to read it, because it's the "Good Book" %{

"Furthermore, the “Biometric App Authentication” function, which is a security measure for social engineering, etc., can be activated with “face authentication” for each application, providing a smoother user experience while enhancing security. Also, "TONE e20" is a log that uses the blockchain-related technology that the FreeBit Group has been working on under the Trusted Internet Initiative and address"[and to the hypotenuse of the right triangle to the lateral array.....]

  If this was really a thing, and somebody was chanting this in a boardroom, people
s brains will be going something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

And kids will just find clever ways to fool the 'AI' to be able to snap the dirty photos. Even Japanese school kids have a lot of idle time on their hands, and the desire to be cool because they beat authority.

Even if Petnet never had this outage, some piece of shit sick fuck might think it's funny to disable the feeder so Foo-Foo does not get her meals. If it's anything like I(di)oT cameras, these pet feeders are discoverable on line, and the security a joke. Maybe a little harder to hack than an I(di)oT camera, but i'm sure the software has more security holes than Swiss cheese.

  OTOH, if somebody is going to leave Foo-Foo in the house for a whole fucking WEEK, with nobody to check on her, then than that person is criminally negligent. Too bad it's not the owner getting his or her meals locked up! >:(

"I find this corporate speak like slang. People switch it up because they're fucking bored. Management is boring AF. So...jazzing up stupid sentences with clever(ish) words seems like a way to liven up your day."

  No, it's just high school behavior brought to the workplace. To look 'cool'. Only this time around, your career advancement, or maybe just your career is at stake.

  It's the strutting, lekking behavior found in other animal species.

Sadly, it's gotten to the point where every place has no compassion, and people are (forced to be) thinking like machines. Sometimes I feel like I am in Star Trek:TNG but when something unexpected happens, they freeze up like a deer in headlights. And of course the empty "I'm sorry," "I understand," with the inevitable "BUT" right after. Sometimes I wonder if this is by design, to prepare a seamless transition between humans and computers/AI doing most jobs.

  Don't think we will live in a Jetsons world either. Think some weird cross between Mad Max and Metropolis.

Whoever the loser will be, is the one who will be sharing a cell with Bubba.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit if there are people who go to airports just to get felt up by a big, burly TSA agent %)

"The most important thing we learned is that it was completely the wrong way to do space exploration."

  So what was the right way? What technology did we have in the late 1960s that was far superior to the rockets and capsules used in the Apollo project?

  I just love all of the armchair experts who go "no-no-no! You need to do it like THIS!" and fuck all of the people who actually got the job DONE. If this kind of thinking dominated all, we would be still sitting in caves going ooga-booga and wiping our asses with our fingers, because we would have to wait and wait for the Right Way(TM) of advancing human intellectualism and technology.

Petnets' CEO is flying to a nice tropical island with shitloads of cash, while dogs and cats starve in front of the bricked, non functional pet feeders.

This should be modded up. If open source developers want to overthrow M$ on the desktop, they need to do better than this. Yes, I have seen this kind of shit with both open source and closed source* software, but the Open Source community needs to be 'selling themselves well' (in a sense) to the general public to gain their trust. Weird .bat files and closing without any error message erodes that trust.

*Oh yeah, the commercial example I was talking about was a Dos game compilation CD which had Paperboy, among others that was released by a professional company. I can't remember the name of it as it was decades ago, but in spite of my computer matching the requirements perfectly, the installer would through out weird error messages complaining about a missing utility (I think it was xcopy IIRC). But no matter my most valiant attempts at getting the fucking thing to install, including copying all of the installation files off of the CD and putting xcopy.exe in the same directory as the install executable, the damn thing just refused to run, now mocking me with it's "cannot find xcopy.exe" error messages. There were no config files, or anything 'human readable' to correct this problem, and the games were packed with some proprietary compression scheme (pkunzip, unrar, lharc, the dos version of gzip- I tried 'em all). I threw away the CD in disgust (it was a hand me down).
