Now do PM and VOC levels at petrol stations.

Then PM and VoC levels on roads entirely occupied by combustion vehicles, and entirely occupied by electric vehicles.

Most common adhesives will be less effective under hot (ie sunlight) conditions.

If you don’t need it to come off, 3Ms GPH (General Purpose High-temp) VHB tape. 50% of your car is probably held together by it.

Ditto.

But I manage a team of embedded developers. On a specialised commercially restricted embedded platform.

AI does not know a thing about our tech. The stuff it does know is either a violation of the vendors contractual covenants or made up bullshit. And Our vendor’s documentation is supplemented by a cumulative decades of knowledge.

Yet still “you gotta use AI”.

While true; do curl http://copilot/?query=what+is+the+time; sleep 10; done

Bet the AI can’t see through this.

You should be putting sunscreen on regardless, and reapplying every 3 hours.

Eventually, I will find the keys to my lambo.

I have a 25 year old cereal bowl and spoon. I’ve lived in maybe 15 houses across 4 countries in this time.

They used to have twins, but they were lost to the horrors of flatmates.

I don’t eat cereal any more, and haven’t for maybe 10 years. But I’ve got it. I have no idea why I keep it. But I do.

Not quite the same. But my NAS does files. That’s it.

Everything else is hosted elsewhere.

Yes, I think so.

• the gibberish audio,
• gate number “♾️”
• everything moves with a localised parallax effect
• the wallabies torso and tail is weird
• the gangway has weird ribs half way down it

Teaching critical thinking?

I bet there would be a carve out for anything particularly unsafe, like high voltage equipment or whatever.

Cue: the new Braun toothbrush, now with a 450v battery system for ultimate cleaning power.

Dig it. Dig it. Love cannot attach itself to binding ugliness.

Dig it. Dig it. Execute economic slave.

Ok maybe not the best lyrics for a dating app.

What features do dishwashers have?

Literally every one I’ve used has had racks, two to three spiny water sprayers, a water intake, and a detergent basket.

I’m not disagreeing with the overall sentiment, the “modes” of a dishwasher are dumb as shit. No I don’t want reduced water flow, reduced temperatures, and a worse outcome requiring manual intervention.

But what is there to break? Suck water in, pump it out, spray it at dishes.

maybe there’s the occasional weird model, like Samsungs wall sprayer. But you can’t buy them any more.

This is the sort of thing machine learning algorithms are pretty good at at.

Coupled with however many millions of interactions a day, you would have no problem correlating changes to your algorithm against increases in revenue.

But. It’s often not that impressive. Humans are equally good at noticing patterns.

All it takes is for one person at FB to see their wife or daughter delete a post, ask them “why did you delete that post” and take away from the response of “It made me look fat” to go “there’s a new targeted ad that’ll get me a bonus”.

In a similar vein, 80% of your banks anti-fraud systems isn’t deep learning models that detect fraudulent behaviour. Instead it’s “if the user is based in Russia, add 80 points, and if the account is at a branch in 10km of Heinersdorf Berlin, add another 50…. We’re pretty sure a Russian scammer goes on holiday every 6 months and opens a bunch of accounts there, we just don’t know which ones”.

Becomes the death jingle when you follow through.

This isn’t foolproof.

The same car might be manufactured in multiple factories for multiple markets, to multiple levels of certification.

Your “new car” in one country, could be the previous years European model if the euro regs have changed.

This is the reason I haven’t given it a chance.

Not that I’m unwilling, but with no common hardware, I’m reluctant to go out and buy something.

I can go buy a pinephone for postmarket, but won’t work for sailfish. I can get an Xperia for sailfish, but I’m out of luck for postmarket.

Not to mention, I’m reluctant to drop a chunk of cash on aged hardware, whose successor doesn’t look to be as well supported.

But none of that is going to stop them from detaining you until you give them the pin.

US citizens might have it a little easier. But foreigners are certainly going to regret their choices if anyone ‘close’ to the border has an issue with them.

I had an idea a while ago on how you could lightly regulate social media platforms.

Require them to:

• Group users into cohorts of a size greater than X. ie, individual level targeting isn’t allowed. The higher this number the better.
• make available to users the cohort they are in
• publish openly every single cohort and their size
• make it possible to view feeds as if you were in a specific cohort.

Will this stop them funnelling customers into rabbit holes? No, probably not.

But it would make “targeted indoctrination” harder as they would have to try and indoctrinate multiple people at once. And it would make it more transparent just how many people are being fed propaganda or whatever you want to call it.
