If I wanted to give benefit of the doubt, maybe they mean that 2/3 of vacancies are caused by being held empty for speculation. Even that doesn’t make snes to me, though. It’s not like you are unable to sell properties that have tenants.
Where are you getting the statistic of 2/3 of housing being kept empty for speculation? A quick look outside tells me that is utter bullshit.
I’d argue that this highly depends on what state you live in. Idaho is one of the most backward, conservative, intolerant states in the country.
[https://www.odditycentral.com/news/door-head-ants-use-their-large-flat-heads-as-doors-to-shut-down-their-nests.html](Here is a short article on them.) According to the article, they stand their ground, even while their head is under attack. Pretty neat ants!
Please tell me this is a satire account. Please?
The Japanese part of this is evidenced by the fact that some traffic lights are blue rather than green. As far as I know, they are standardizing everything to green now to avoid any confusion, but some older lights are still blue because the words were the same for blue and green.
I have been on the internet since 1993 and have always been disappointed that a subscription/donation model didn’t beat out an ad-driven model. I wonder if this is going to push us towards a subscription/donation model as things move behind paywalls tplo protect against bots.
I don’t really want to pay subscription fees, but I am definitely tired of ads and being the product. I’d rather be sold a good product.
“One quarter at a time” is being generous I think. They think microsecond to microsecond a lot of the time because that’s how you carve corners off of the market.
Why does everything that comes from this administration have to be the worst possible decision for any given situation? They’re so dumb, you’d think they’d stumble into a good thing every once in a while.
Fuck these malicious assholes!
As someone else who works in ML but as a user for research purposes, I agree that there is no technical distinction but we’re talking about public communications here. You and I both know that AI and ML are the same thing. Most people do not. If I talked with my mom about AI she would assume I mean generative AI. She wouldn’t understand the nuance in your comment.
In fact, even as a researcher who uses both simple ML techniques and generative AI, I tend to make the assumption that when someone mentions AI they mean generative AI.
Common language changes based on the common understanding of society. The fact that the technical terms mean something different from the common understanding in society means that we need to be even more careful with the terms that we use, especially with something as polarizing as generative AI.
I wouldn’t call that “doing a good job”. If they were doing a good job, they would disambiguate Machine Learning from Generative AI. I don’t know that they’re doing this intentionally, but i would definitely appreciate that distinction being made.
Anecdotally, after using an electric tooth brush, using a “normal” toothbrush leaves my teeth feeling fuzzy not matter how well I brush.
Also, it used to be that my teeth would feel super clean and smooth after the dentist. I barely notice the difference anymore because my electric toothbrush does such a good job.
Okay, that was a pretty cool read! I had no idea these things existed. Thanks, I didn’t expect to learn anything cool in a thread on Pete Hegzeth’s poor hygiene.
I kind fo agree and kind of don’t. I agree in that parents should take accountability for their children. That said, social media has been shown to be addictive and kids are frequently ahead of their parents technologically. One thing that could help is an education campaign that teaches parents how to effectively monitor their kid’s online activity. Parents need some help figuring out what tools to use and how to use them I think.
They do have light and medium roasts, too. I’m not saying their coffee is great, but it’s not all burnt either.
What do you think a subscription is? Or do you really think people are going to go back to buying physical papers?
Air and water move, especially when heated.
I haven’t really looked at Facebook in a long time but also haven’t deleted my account because I do use Facebook marketplace sometimes.
I just logged in and looked. I actually saw no AI generated content except the few examples that were posted by people I know. I’m sure other’s experiences are different, but the algorithm isn’t feeding me slop for some reason.
Age and term limits for congress, please!
I think this is just an example of trying to stretch “we don’t know shit” into an article of sifficient length.
