I can feed my biological markers into a set transformer with the time of day, what I'm doing, what I ate, if I'm on-call, and it'll predict my next glucose, heart rate, blood pressure, melatonin, etc state quite well. It'

The timing makes it the most likely, not only them but potentially more. Comparatively quick, instant results. "Here's Astra! BTW our internal model is 10x better at math!" It'd be interesting to see academics having giv

Afghanistan: Every NATO member went because of article 5. The Taliban explicitly refused to comply when requested to hand over Bin Laden. This is as clear cut casus belli as it gets. And then Australia, South Korea, Malaysia, Azerbaijan and

For a while Google Workspace didn't enforce the 5TB per user limit and eventually I had 50TB of suspiciously named backups (for real, you should see my DVD collection). Nothing came out of it except for the enforcement and the pain of

I've lived for 10 years in France and virtually all spam I receive is from French leaks (I know due to dedicated addresses), which have kept happening since I left. Bourse des Vols, Free, even Doctolib and my hospital (!), and now this

Neat. One of my favourite sites, which also shows daylight, is WeatherSpark[0], obviously focused on weather and it allows you to compare locations based on yearly rainfall, cloud cover, muggy conditions, all sorts of stuff. Always check it

I don't think anyone over 30 around me likes that. At that point it's very close to door dashing but less convenient.

It reminds me of multitabling at online poker. More tables translates into more revenue even if the ROI per table is lower as you don't dedicate as much attention, until it collapses from not being unable to do the right decisions on t

To add on that, the propaganda spinned it as: 1. Not a war 2. A defensive/protective operation. The reason being the article 353 of Russian Criminal Code, under which planning or waging a war of aggression carries a prison sentence. h

I have the opposite impression. For me the quality is the cake; polish is just the icing. Putting out a 5-min of effort output with an AI as your image, is all icing and no cake: it has all the right proportions, layout, etc, but something

Same, but for dates. There's <input type="date">; it's literally a solved problem ffs. Forcing to scroll through years, months and days in your remarkably creative date selection widget is extremely user hostile.

Passive radar is fine for gigantic airliners with all regard for efficiency, none for radar cross section, and that fly above most obstacles. For drones you might be trying to scratch signal not only from below noise floor, but at the edges
