So if you type cats but the item is called pets get no results. Now the ai can find context based matches in the auto complete list.
Google added context search to Gmail and it's infuriating. I'm looking for an exact phrase that I even put in quotes but Gmail returns a long list of emails that are vaguely related to the search word.
I've tried scrubbing it several times with bar keepers friend soft cleanser and although it improves, it never goes away completely and it always comes back....
An alternative to vinegar is citric acid. You can buy it as a tub of crystals so it's much cheaper because you aren't paying for water. It's great because you can add more teaspoons to water to make it stronger than vinegar. Plus it doesn't smell bad like vinegar.
Imo, the only solution is every device with an antenna must be legally required to put a manual off switch.
Cell service, wifi, Bluetooth, any future service. If it broadcasts it needs a physical off switch.
If I sold my car to a government official and they found out I had hidden a camera, microphone and GPS in the car, I'd get a visit from the FBI. Yet companies do it with impunity. Does the CEO of Subaru have recordings of Bernie Sanders driving in his car?
I'm not that nostalgic. Everything about my new car is better than my older cars. My 2023 minivan has a better 0-60 than my old V-8 Mustang while getting 2x the MPG. The only thing that is bad is the tracking.
"Why" is a valid question until and only until you get to the edge of knowledge. At that point it's "physical laws".
For example, "Why is the sky blue?" is a valid question and has answers.
"Even seemingly impossible questions like, "Why is there magnetism." can be answered by applying special relativity to electric fields. (Feynman answered this question poorly in the Horizon interview which might be where you got the idea that why is a bad question.)
You end up at, "Why are there photons?" which can't be answered. (Or maybe can't be answered yet.)
My interpretation of the question was why so many elements in the periodic table are metal and that does have an answer. It relates to the number of electrons on the outer shell that are mobile because the more electrons in an atom, the "farther" away they are and therefore are mobile. That electron mobility gives the element properties that we call "metal".
Yet they and their descendants would go on to transform Europe and much of Asia genetically, culturally and linguistically. Among the many innovations that these steppe migrants ushered in, scientists believe, are the Indo-European languages that are dominant in Europe today, and which are spoken by nearly half of humanity....
I've always hated recursion. It's always seemed like a cutesy programming trick that's not reliable in all conditions.
You could blow the stack in an edge case that you didn't think of. So it should never be a standard pattern. It's only good if you need to rewrite something for optimization and recursion is appropriate. But in many cases recursion is slower.
"Look at what I can do in 5 lines of code!" is for programming contests, not for anything important.
I mow the lawn myself but I outsourced the design and manufacturing of my mower. Same with string trimmer and leaf blower. I also buy my gasoline instead of making it myself.
He places the blame on "laws" when it is really capitalism. People want a single family home so capitalism provides it the absolutely cheapest way possible: cookie cutter suburbs.
It's no different than Campbell's soup. It's not meant to be the best soup. It's meant to be the soup you can afford to buy.
While I agree with all your statements about the fuel for suburban sprawl, without demand all that money would have gone into high density urban construction. Even white flight would have been a flight to new high density housing if that's what people preferred.
It's the problem that all the best urban planning can't address.
If people didn't want cheap cookie cutter suburbs they would spend more for something else.
Yeah, it's the best they can afford. Like Campbell's soup. If they had more money the homes would be larger and more unique. But that wouldn't change suburban sprawl at all.
Suburban sprawl exists because people do not want to live that close to others. It doesn't matter how nice you make apartments when a large percentage of the population are introverts and will pay as much as they can afford to have space.
The problem isn't politics or laws. The problem is people.
I think it's a delayed development reaction to Amazon Alexa from 4 years ago. Alexa came out, voice assistants were everywhere. Someone wanted to cash in on the hype but consumer product development takes a really long time.
So product is finally finished (mobile Alexa) and they label it AI to hype it as well as make it work without the hard work of parsing wikipedia for good answers.
I did and couldn't find anything about it being a scam.
Merchants after converting could decide how to round their prices. They chose to round up because it was an easy excuse to raise prices. That's not a scam. That's business being business.
That reads like someone with minor mental illness. Rambling. Evangelion. Rambling.
I clicked their resume and there's no evidence they contributed a single line of code to the project. Yet they demand the person who wrote most of it step down? Yeah.
Write your own project and manage it how you want. Don't threaten others. Do your own thing.
does not entitle you to do whatever you want and tell people to "make their own thing" if they don't like it.
He not only wrote it but made it open source so if anyone doesn't like what he's doing they can take all of his work and make their own project.
The author of NixOS couldn't have been more generous. If anyone doesn't like it, they can take all his work that he did for free and make it their own project.
Which doesn't matter because he's already given everything to the community. If they want to take it in another direction, he's already given it to them.
??? You don't need a specific room. Quest doesn't need any beacons or wires.
I don't like Facebook, never had a Facebook account and refused to buy their VR until they removed the Facebook account requirement 2 years ago.
But the hardware is excellent for the price. Facebook is selling the hardware at a loss and making it up in software sales. So you are hurting Facebook by buying their hardware and using it with Steam.
I read that and the summary is, "Here are current physical models that don't explain everything. Therefore, because science doesn't have an answer it could be magic."
We know consciousness is attached to the brain because physical changes in the brain cause changes in consciousness. Physical damage can cause complete personality changes. We also have a complete spectrum of observed consciousness from the flatworm with 300 neurons, to the chimpanzee with 28 billion. Chimps have emotions, self reflection and everything but full language. We can step backwards from chimps to simpler animals and it's a continuous spectrum of consciousness. There isn't a hard divide, it's only less. Humans aren't magical.
Because flatworm neurons can be exactly modeled without adding anything extra.
It's like if you said, "And we know a falling ball isn't caused by radiation because?" If you can model a ball dropping in a vacuum without adding any extra variables to your equations, why claim something extra? It doesn't mean radiation couldn't affect a falling ball. But adding radiation isn't needed to explain a falling ball.
The neurons in a flatworm can be modeled without adding quantum effects. So why bother adding in other effects?
And a minor correction, "non local" means faster than light. Quantum effects do not allow faster than light information transfer. Consciousness by definition is information. So even if quantum processes affected neurons macroscopically, there still couldn't be non local consciousness.
"that electrical stimuli passed between neighboring electrodes can also affect non-neighboring electrodes. Known as non-locality, this discovery is a crucial milestone"
That's not quantum non locality. The journalist didn't know how to interpret the actual data.
"Quantum nonlocality does not allow for faster-than-light communication,[6] "
Quantum non locality is like taking two playing cards, sealing them in envelopes, mailing one to your friend across the country and then asking him to open it. You will know faster than light which card is in your envelope. But that doesn't allow information transfer.
Google has suggestions like bleach and a toothbrush. I like to unscrew them. You need a rubber jar opener at minimum and sometimes pliers. Use a tiny bit of silicone food safe plumbers grease on the threads so next time it's easy.
The Philippines lodged its “strongest protest” against Beijing on Monday and summoned a senior Chinese diplomat over a water cannon assault by the Chinese coast guard that injured Filipino navy crew members and heavily damaged their boat in the disputed South China Sea, officials said....
I was unfamiliar with the geography so I looked it up on a map. It's crazy that China is making claims to the water. It's over 700 miles from China but only 120 miles from the Philippines.
It would be like Canada making territorial claims to the water around Bermuda.
The issue with Tesla has never been that the windows are hard to break. The issue is that the rear doors are electronic with manual override hidden in a camouflaged panel at the bottom of the door pocket. A door pocket that was added to hold things. Those things will block access to the emergency door open.
I don't understand how anyone uses a paid API for a personal project. I looked hard into MS, Google and Amazon a few years ago for a project and couldn't find anywhere where you could hard block services to never ever go above the free tier.
Considering that I'll build a project and forget about it for years, putting in my credit card into a cloud service was a guaranteed gigantic bill sometime in the future when things went wrong. (Over your life, something is guaranteed to go wrong.)
