No they don't. The two Huawei models mentioned are completely different form factors, that are much more open-ear and further from squishy silicone than any Airpods. This is exactly the assumption that the carefully worded juice hopes

If self-hosting is the only solution you can think of to maintain model stability, it's no wonder you missed the point. We already do all those things you mentioned, even with cloud providers. Model versioning exists for exactly this p

That's a narrow take. Non-deterministic doesn't mean random; workflows can be reasonably validated and consistent to some known degree. I work for an education department that serves a chatbot for students, and model changes go th

A couple of years in Tokyo gave me great trust in certain weather apps for eerily precise minute-by-minute rainfall predictions. After a few years back in Sydney, my trust in them has dropped back down to the usual uncertain baseline, and m

I wasn't aware of this game until AFTER I saw the movie. Made a lot more sense after that. Watching a guy solve the same puzzle over and over felt like an odd narrative choice. A labyrinthine Shinjuku would still be way cooler. Shibuya

If you just want to clone a typical garage door remote, you're way better off buying a generic $5 fob. Almost all the 433MHz garage fobs I've seen are designed to easily clone each other. And if cloning doesn't work, it'

Since you cannot imagine how they'd perform, isn't this the perfect opportunity to test your assumption?

What do you mean by proportion? They are different data sources, and their usage is determined by system design. eg A driving decision system needs to know object distances AND traffic light colours. It doesn't particularly need to kno

> To the extent that "ban cars" even exists as a real political archetype rather than a meme, this is just patently not true. At least one of the two co-hosts of The War on Cars (again, a title which is intentionally tongue-in-

Sure they may become mercenaries. Maybe "Hyundai factory worker" is akin to "remote oil rig worker". Or they could just be regular people with regular, stable jobs because they haven't chased a life of risk.

But China banning foreign apps also plays into their stranglehold on their domestic media and economy, so it's not a purely adversarial move against the US. Or to put it another way, should the US also ban/censor Chinese art and c

So basically a stream deck. Those things are pretty tempting, I must admit. When similar functions are shrunk down and integrated into regular keyboards, my wallet will be in trouble. Although this reminds me, my old Logitech G15 from 2008

So, paying for a night shift will increase the cost to customers, but higher salaries negotiated by on-call employees won't? Or did you leave out the part where those employees discover how little negotiating power they really have

But, but, if the employer doesn't steal wages from employees, where will they get the money to pay them higher salaries?

I recently had a slack message on my Friday evening from my delayed-timezone manager starting his Friday. There was no expectation to answer out of hours, but it was some small detail I could answer in a few seconds. And this was from a ne

I had one of these and quite liked it. Then one day I plugged my phone in before bed as a million times before and the cable display popped and started emitting smoke.

I've been getting this a lot. Especially with Rust, where it will use functions that don't exist. It's maddening

Doesn't Android allow sandboxed MDMs to be added to the phone? I've seen this when using Island, which basically creates a fake work profile on the phone which is completely separated from your personal profile. For dual apps like

I've used this to get to a browser that almost does full screen videos in a borrowed Tesla, from the YouTube app. Then navigated to some dodgy adware infested streaming site and it was working okay until changing to another video, when

iOS happily kills backswipes with inconsistent alternatives. eg View details in Photos, and swiping back doesn't work. But there are also no back buttons or visual cues. But there are 3 ways to get out of that screen AFAIK, which some

Even native iOS apps have some terribly inconsistent back behaviour, particularly when handling overriding swipe functions. Eg Photos seems to change Back on almost every view. Swiping back navigates around albums and locations and such. Un

And in Australia they dominate the list of highest paid professions, so I immediately wonder how many other wealthy countries were skipped before settling on Cuba as a comparison.

Cancer survival rates are gameable anyway. They depend highly on early screening. As a statistic I mean. You can have pretty solid 5 year stats without treatment, if it takes 10 years to kill people. OTOH, without screening, finding it 8 y

There was a solid stretch of not knowing if things might get much worse, if the vaccines might fail etc. Some borders have only opened very recently. It's not like all those people who wanted to travel and go out were actually making p

As far as making their point goes, sexuality is a pretty convenient placeholder for issues of identity. As for reaching personal balance independently, it's a much shorter path to self acceptance moving from environments that stifle yo
