Being fined by Russia is actually a positive stamp of approval in my book!

Just finished a re-watch of Sunny and this has to be the best recurring joke of the series

It starts so innocently and ends with the foam hands and it's all in like 3 episodes seasons apart from each other!

Read the comment above yours, that's where I learned about it

We live in an interesting world in which HR uses AI to summarize a cover letter or resume that was written using the same AI

It's all down to how good the prompt is (on both sides) to stand out

It's crazy how well he does an American accent. I'm currently watching Veep and was so impressed with how normal southern he sounds. Not a hint of a British accent!

Not sure if sarcasm, but the article is actually super insightful into a few different methods bad actors could use to accomplish the same feat (short of giving them a formula, from what I can read, but I'm not a battery maker)

Are you like building a mobile app or have 100k tests or is it just super slow?

I forget where I read this, but someone posited that the goal has always been "all day" battery. Ever since the first smartphones ,we've had, largely, the same battery life. It lasts most of the day and that's good enough for most people. The secret, though, is that actually the batteries have gotten way bigger and more energy dense, it's just that the processors and mobile radios are also more power intensive.

I suspect if you put a modern battery in a 5 yr old smartphone it would last 2+ days. But you'd have to deal with 3G radios, bad GPS, and slow performance.

One of the most amazing things about this would be to remove signs altogether. Just embed the sensor in the pavement and give the space the signs took up back to people, nature, or literally anything else.

Huge overhead highway gantries and traffic lights would be wonderful to remove, too. City sidewalks are narrow enough as is and they would be way better without 20+ft tall metal poles jutting out of the ground. Hopefully we can put trees in their place, but maybe I'm dreaming.

The word "feed" is very unsettling in the context of an AI toaster...
