What are the chances that the robot was being controlled by a human and not AI? There have been a lot of "demos" of AI robots that it turns out is a guy in another room controlling it. If I had to bet money, that is what was happening here as well.

This shows the real issue with AI. It isn't in the AI itself, but the people using it. I don't have an issue with them using AI to try and identify the suspect when they are having a hard time doing so. But you can't just take what AI says and assume it is correct and act on it. AI is a tool and needs to be used as such. When it gives you something, it is up to the people to actually check out what it says and follow up on it. People are using AI as if it is the answer but it is just a tool to try and get to the real answer and that is the part that people are ignoring.

I'm not sure what it could be -- every testing/checking tool I can find online passes it (and I learned a lot from that, including removing old cyphers), the banners/HELO etc are largely anonymized, yet by and large Google says "yeah nah" to the first few new emails to a new gmail address.

It'd be fantastic if they had a test page where you could send them an email or click a "start test" button and it'd go through and check everything that *THEY* look for, but it feels like they don't have a vested interest in that -- they want you to just use their service, and I refuse.

Google is like this - their anti spam tools are only available if you *are* sending UCE. The small private domains sending a few hundred to a few thousand emails to gmail addresses annually cannot get access to them.

I have all the things set right: DKIM, DMARC, SPF, IP is in a "good neighbourhood", all the blackhole lists show my IP as clear, yet sending "hey, nice meeting you today, here's my email, looking forward to speaking with you again" type emails to a new gmail address almost always end up in their junk. And there's nobody to contact at Google about it -- it's a completely automated system.

Microsoft has their junk mail reporting whatever and registering with them (not an easy thing to find until you know what it is) solved all my outlook.com issues.

People always point out that almost nobody needs to know all the pointless facts you learn in school in your daily life, but the reality is that school offers a lot of different chances to do all kinds of boring, tedious, pointless, and esoteric things- many of which you'll mirror in your adult lives. Sure, you might not need to know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, but being able to remember all the different types of purchasing orders that your company uses and the specific esoteric tagging system they have in the back end, being able to remember all that esoteric stuff is helpful. But AI really does change things, and I worry about human cognition, as all this stuff is ultimately trained. You get smarter by thinking about things and figuring stuff out, and if AI is doing that for you, you're robbed of that opportunity.

Kids lost two years of learning from the lockdowns. Don't blame laptops for a horrible pandemic that, for some reason, everyone forgets about.

You are putting WAY to much thought into this. Yes, it was not a fancy double blind study, but there are 4 separate files and 4 things they could be assigned to. Anyone with 2 brain cells would listen and assign what they though was the best quality to the original. Then to the one run through the audio cable. Then the banana followed by mud. They fact that at minimum the mud and banana didn't stand out says what you need to know about the quality.

No, it's not. It is only legal for someone with a federal firearms license to manufacture guns, and even then they have to have a serial number. Not sure where to got you information, but it is 100% incorrect.

I have not seen Sassy Justice, but the law does look to apply specifically to "intimate images", which I assume Sassy Justice would not fall under. Also, I assume parody could be used as defense in the case as well.

That is exactly what would happen. This is another Trump idea that sounds good when you say it but anyone who puts any thought into it finds very quickly it is a terrible idea. Everything he says is about getting people to like him. He says something like this so people will say "that will help me, Donald Trump is a good guy and on my side". Meanwhile, if it happens, most of those same people will have their credit cards cancelled or not be able to get a card to begin with. He can then say it is all the banks faults not his. Trump is nothing but optics, once you look past the words and actually at how things works, everything falls apart.

where is this on ipad? they added a phone app but there are no recents there.

ios26 is such a massive step backwards.

No, they don't need to micromanage, just manage. If your manager doesn't know what you do, what are they managing? They should be in contact with the people they manage and communicating with them about their tasks. There are more options than "stand at desk and watch employee all the time" and "let the employees do whatever they want".

I was watching a Twitch stream where Pokimane was addressing her recent visa renewal and some issues travelling back to the US, and she nailed it perfectly. The O1 visa is based upon how much money the US thinks you can make, and they can therefore tax. It's not about artistry or anything like that in the majority of cases, they just want to see you will make money they can collect taxes on. Like most things in the government (especially in this government) it has become entirely transactional.

Deadlines exist, and workplace accommodations exist. It's why the ADA and section 504 exist. And honestly, if a boss isn't able to support his employee on having the time to complete the work, that's the boss's fault for failing to be flexible and understanding how to help their employee succeed. Accommodations exist to help employees be the best they can be, and the disability world is honestly flush with neurodivergent people talking about how they had an asshole boss who never accommodated them, and they went through a living hell, then quitting and finding a job with a boss who actually worked with them, and they're a top performer. I've been through that process a number of times. The realities of the job are absolutely the realities of the job, but more often than not, the issues people with disabilities have in the workplace are the fault of shitty ablest managers who can't or won't think outside the box, not with the constraints of the work.
