Isn't an exploding rocket in space a bad thing - ie debris everywhere? I know space is big but aren't there now a few thousand more pieces of space junk to track. I suppose they're worried about a starship landing on someone's home - but still seems a tad premature.
Youtube should be paying us for watching ads
Take a 1M view clip on youtube, say 4 ads, $0.15/view; Revenue 600k, Creator: 3k
That's a money fire hydrant only a monopoly can have. Advertisers are desperate to reach consumers, and right now they have to go through Youtube. What Youtube is actually selling is our attention without paying us our cut.
That's why we end up with this false dilemma between being force fed ads, or paying a hefty subscription. Tbh google don't want you to buy a subscription, they make more off the ads. No wonder we're all pissed.
The vintage Google thing about this is right in the middle of anti-trust hearings they start this fight with ad blockers/consumers - are we really that dumb?
I file this one under memories are short, and dust masks are a pain in the arse. Sure labour laws are wanting for your Appalachian thin seam coal miner, but the union strong Australian industry had had a similar revelation, albeit with reportable cases in the tens, not thousands).
Dust masks are totally effective. The main problem is convincing miners to wear them, all shift, in the heat, and the humidity. The only effective motivator I've seen for the industry are miners getting sick.
In my fifteen years of underground coal I've seen it go from crews where none wore dust masks, to everyone wears them, and it's not like black lung or silicosis are new to mining. And what's interesting is most wear them purely out of self concern, the minority due to workplace health and safety rules.
Agree about the bounding box, best seen when editing, rest of the time just a distraction.
I've been chasing a onenote alternative for some time, this looks promising. I have to add, I loved the old Onenote heirachy, notebooks down the left (rotated labels), sections across the top, pages down the right.
And more screen shots always help for those too lazy to trial. And add some default notebook/section/note naming, so people can just click and start adding notes.
Great work
Forget the paint, how does the radar miss this??
Yeh, bet sensationalist.
Study actually refers to "wine is increasingly served in 250 mL servings" and "usually a 175 mL measure".
I think a better control group would have been a group who had to bash their thumb with a hammer or something....
Looks like a re-run of Knight Rider...
Don't be evil? Kind of hard to build robots to help kill people and spruik this motto at the same time. I don't buy the money pit argument, rarely been Google's sole yardstick.
Kicker is in the US, government funded research is primarily through defense spending. If you're going to turn your nose up at that, you're on a long expensive path to monetisation in this space.
whispering is next on the ban list...
AI experiment? Bet the world pictionary champ is starting to sweat :P
amen - but is there any hope for the rest of the world?
I'd love to throw out my santa sack of international sim cards. Maybe I should stop whingeing and just buy some telco shares. Can't beat 'em-
Cut prices on their ageing cash cow, or start flogging that faltering horse?
Smart money's on the latter. Kinda painful to re-watch the Apple II moment while android ambles off into the sunset with all the users....

Clearly the logical solution is to torture Tim Cook. The answers in there somewhere....
