I had this feature turned on for a few months with the older iOS' and it worked great... until I got onto a waitlist at a restaurant and then "never" got the text telling my table was ready. There was no notification indication at all which normally is what I would've wanted.

AI filterting would be great for that sort of stuff but then the spammers would immediately jump on that "Your table is ready! respond to me about your inheritance is Uganda!"

A vaccine? That helps people? We must get rid of it! Have you tried taking Vitamin A instead?

Fully autonomous (sp?).

So, it was the only vehicle on the course and only had to travell in a straight line? I mean... what was actually being demonstrated here? That it knew how to shift?

Oh if I had the mod points...

Absolutely.

It's kind of ironic because my dad, a boomer, drank the cheap stuff like pabst blue ribbon and old milwaukee, because he probably just wanted the alcohol content cheap. When I came of age and shared a few cans I hated the stuff, even when going to college parties and drinking beer it was still something like Budweiser which I can drink but don't like either.

It wasn't until I moved states to start my career that I went out with some coworkers and they introduced me to Scottish Ale and Guinness' Stout which are far more tastier to me and I LIKE to drink. Though these days not as much as I try to avoid carbs as much as possible!

My 5 year old PC, which is perfectly capable of running current games and productivity software isn't supported by Windows 11 because it doesn't have TPM (or TPS cover sheets... or some other such nonsense) so it's running on Windows 10 and that's where it's going to stay when I build my new PC.

My new laptop came with Windows 11 and, not wanting, copilot, I went in and forcibly blocked Windows 11 updates.

Now I'm probably going to have to update SOMETIME as software and games drop support for older OS but, like Windows 8, I can afford to wait a few years.

OpenAI appears to have been completely sucked in by greed and just shouldn’t be allowed to stop being a non-profit.

If it’s going to take 4 years to replace the trees lost in a single hurricane season this isn’t going to go well.

Being pedantic here, but the FCC licenses broadcast networks like NBC-Affiliates, ABC-Affiliates, etc. Most of the major networks don't broadcast over the air to local TVs - they broadcast via satellite to their affiliate network stations who then require an FCC license to re-broadcast that signal locally. Some major networks do own local TV stations that have to be licensed, but the "networks" themselves do not.

I've been using a couple of different AIs integrated with various IDEs for about the past year.

They all, to a T, suck for actual solutions. Yes, they scarily generate code that has my style and naming conventions but for anything more than the most basic/common requests you get AI Hallucinations (a major failing in AI generation that they have to actually NAME IT and hold seminars on how to "fix" it... har har, It's not a bug, it's a feature!).

On the flip side, there's 2 areas where it's actually helped me.

1. Rote/grunt code handling. We had a minor API change in one library but it involved me going through about a dozen files and having to change about a 100 lines to pass parameters by a different naming convention that wasn't easily doable by grep/replace. To its credit, the AI in the IDE figured out the pattern after the third change and started offering it as a solution for code completion for the next 20 changes, even appropriately using different naming schemes when the context changed. I was impressed... But then it "forgot" and wouldn't offer the change... then after I hand fixed another dozen lines it suddenly remembered and started offering up the solution again. Regardless, it's gotten better at this grunt stuff over the last few months and it really helps with the coders block when you don't want to write yet another routine for massaging the data objects from one thing in a set to another format to patch up an API call! and the AI will just do it for you.

2. Error analysis of existing code. This seems to be a new feature as I hadn't observed this yet, but the AI found a configuration error in my code's makefile (not really an error per se but something that could've come back to bite me in the butt someday). The IDE I use is supposed to catch this too but didn't.

TL;DR - I was getting worried for my job as a programmer but then found the emperor had no clothes but that the AI can be helpful in some areas.

I actually ran out of breath trying to read that...

Apes together, strong!

Hear F-ing hear!

Those LED projector lights (great if you're driving) will completely blind you coming from some other cars. Either that or people are just flat out running with their brights on.
