Especially in cases involving tech, it is important to have full access to evidence. So an independent analysis can be performed and additional investigation can be requested.

Another is that it makes the victims complicit in taking another persons life. A victim that may realize this too late.

Very few people can understand machine code. Some can read small snippets, no one I know has written an application in machine code. There are compilers so they don't have to.

The problem is that a shared code base. Languages for verifiable code are not mainstream yet and probably too difficult for humans to learn. What software developers should do is define specifications and let AI create a verifiable imlementation.

Or improve the login procedure. It is really bad for company moralle if the organization is not able to recognize and act when it notices such a waste of resources.

If this cannot lead to gun control legislation, what can?

Micro usb was also part of EU regulation..

Slackware was 27 or 28 floppies as I remember it. But that was including x Windows and emacs.

They are all KHTML forks

It is a bit like self driving vehicles, there is really no self driving cars unless you take out the steering wheel. The only way to reduce white collar jobs is to reduce the number of computers, if you do not do that, then there will be a white collar worker feeding input and interpreting output of the AIs.

The goggles are too expensive. They should have opened it to Google cardboard.

AI is now a commodity, and a cheap one, where the real value is how you use and apply it. That field haven't really begun yet, all we have seen is a fun chat show case and some fancy autocompletion. What we need is finding out how it can improve business and peoples lives. I very much hope for an AI robot butler at home.

True that Apple hasn't made anything interesting for a while. It is a consequence of aging in upper leadership with no ambition and a safe market position. I hope that the entry of AI can remove the reliance in big screens, abondency of apps and excessive hours of device use. Perhaps subscription driven instead of ad driven. Rectangular devices with round corners are the beige boxes of the 2020ies.

They should not have closed it down. An open system would have a broader attraction and more customers.

All these personal names for assistants, I am not convinced. In Star Trek NG they nailed it. They just call the computer for computer. You may argue that the computer is an actual device you have in front of you, but that is increasingly just a terminal for the services and AI behind. So I suggest in the spirit of the Google Assistant's original hot-word "OK Google" that we should address the assistant "OK Computer". No reference to Radiohead at all :)
