Ellison's Cave 3 years ago

"[...] the two deepest pits in the contiguous United States: Fantastic (586 feet) and Incredible (440 feet).[2] These two pits lie on opposite sides of the cave. Nearby and parallel to Fantastic are Smokey I (500 feet), Smokey II (262 feet)[...]"

That's the most confusing statement either. "A and B are the two deepest, with C nearby (being deeper than B)"

I actually reported them several times to the Australian TGA (our "FDA") as they were illegally promoting unapproved medical devices. The TGA could not find out any Australian entity to go after so they gave up :/

Was fun. Got 2 perfect out of the 5 on my first try :) Score 3098 total

Artists will need to get real jobs again like the rest of us. How disrespectful is this for professional artists?

instead of being well compensated. Hello? What % of pro artists are "well compensated"?

Responsiveness / latency issues on mobile are literally driving me nuts.

Icons and links that move between the time my brains initiate the chain of events to press on something and the time my finger actually hits the target are causing me so much frustration :( That goes beyond loss of productivity and is literally affecting my mental health.

Came here to say this exact same thing.

I still remember - November 2013, I was interviewing for some jobs in Boulder CO, and was invited to dinner by a tech entrepreneur. I showed him how good Swype was. Back then I had a tiny-weenie Xperia (S, or SL or U??). I remember clearly how blown away he was. And I remember clearly how enjoyable it was to actually be able to swype one handed. I did not even ever had a case protector for this phone, and managed to never break it because I would not drop it!

I can't remember which of the phones I had after that with which I was so sad when i realized Swype had disappeared when I could not reinstall it :(I had tried Swift key, the Stock google, and I think another one, but none never came close to Swype learning algorithm :(

"THIS PRODUCT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AS IT CONTAINS SHARP METAL AND OTHER SMALL PARTS." Yet they show a super young child on their page.

"give your favorite 7" records new life". No thanks, I like them as they are.

Only 57 fatalities, but how many injuries? Including severe and debilitating injuries, which can have gigantic economic consequences - not only direct (healthcare + disability care), but also indirect (one of the 2 parents needing to quit the workforce to take care of a disabled child for instance).

Interesting (and very pleasing aesthetically) post.

Very interesting comments thread (as usual here).

I'll hijack this post to promote this event in which I'm involved:

https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/creative-ai-sydney-tickets-3...

We will be discussing this 'issue' and address many of the questions raised with academic researchers and leading industry creatives from Canva (who have been disrupting the graphic design industry for a while already), NVidia AI (who are the n#1 hardware engine behind this revolution), as well as Spotify, Warner music, Google Creative labs and others.

The event is free, online or F2F in Sydney!
