And even if they do revise it to including slicing software, good luck enforcing that in open source slivers not based in the USA...

The best of the best are always trying to be, well, better. Food is only one of the aspects that they think about- they also want you to feel welcome and respected. As the article mentions, some chefs have kept notebooks of guest preferences in the past. If they can use someone's Instagram account to get a sense of who they are before they come in, they can make sure that the waitstaff are treating them in a manner they would like. For example, if someone seems like they are introverted, then maybe they back off on the social interactions with them. If they seem to be someone more extroverted, then they get more attention.
Chefs want anyone that comes in to feel like they are special. This is just a new innovation in that direction, and it's not something that you're going to find happening at Chili's anytime soon.

Around here, the mountains make FM coverage spotty. AM never fails.
AM receivers are cheap and reliable. I think they should continue to me mandated in cars as a last-ditch mass communications method. If there were some licenses available around here I'd grab one and build a station. Alas....

Comment Dark Matter disproven. (Score 1) 44
Dark Matter fails to explain the orbital dynamics of Proxima Centauri. Our closest celestial neighbors are very observable. Quantized Inertia defeats Dark Matter again and again. Sometimes you will see articles referencing MOND as defeating Dark Matter, and MOND is a step in the right direction but it has too many unexplained constants and weak theoretical underpinnings and doesn't stack up against QI in predictive versus observed. https://academic.oup.com/mnrasl/article/532/1/L67/7682393
