A consumer watch dog that meticulously tracks equivalents to combat this would be an interesting project.

This is true. Here’s a cautionary tale to that end. My org’s IT recently introduced, without input, an ai filtering tool to automatically filter junk email. It apparently worked to…

Yes, and it’s trivial to form one! If you look up the documentation necessary you may not believe your eyes.

Given that I just read this comment after getting off a connecting flight that had me waiting on a fully boarded plane in 100 degree Phoenix weather for half an hour, it’s pretty p…

Put that on a T-shirt!

I think people miss this because these companies exist in a space that is new in tech, and that means lots of competition through PR and marketing. When that happens, it’s easy to …

They want it to equal identity verification! When virtually every top tech executive who wants a favor is at the inauguration and you have companies doing 180 degrees on support fo…

Everything is going to plan! Protect the precious bodily fluids.

And C) they don't always have to be at parity with human hands to be good enough because humans are flat out expensive. Humans need health accommodations, have sick days, vacation,…

Those numbers are bullshit. The bottom of a grown woman’s cycle is around 100 pg/ml. I have no idea where they’re getting those numbers but I assure you they’re wrong, and even if …

Gold is pretty soft. You would have to cut it to 10 carat, so there’s be even more to go around!

It's practically karmic how rich this is.

Right. It's deterministic, and determinism should be the goal. It's not metaphysical. Some users know what they want while others do not. The software we create (by any means) shou…

But even then, you have to know to do that. It feels like a bit of a turtles all the way down situation, no?

This is what fascinates me. I have a friend, also a smart guy, who has made it to the point he’s at by being a kind of solutions expert. He’s an IT guy, basically. He’s very techni…

I fully agree with you about communicating, but I’m not persuaded that translates to movement or is required for wisdom, which I think you’re broadly describing. Physical movement …

Yes and no, it seems. Yes in Developer Mode. With that configuration, which confusingly requires you to turn on LAN mode first, you can use your own software to control all feature…
