Do you have articles on Gates' work causing harm on the food sector? I'd love to learn more.

He had some valid reasoning behind preventing an open source covid vaccine. Whether it was the right call is up for debate.

The most prominent reason that stuck in my mind was to ensure the vaccines were of high quality and made using proper equipment. This is reasonable as a bad one could've drastically reduced trust among the general population.

I work in an AI company. 99% of our tech relies on tried and true standard computer vision solutions instead of machine-learning based. It's just that unreliable when production use requires pixel precision.

We might throw a gradient descent here or there, but not for any learning ops.

She's an optional boss. You don't need to beat her to finish the game.

Samsungs have this built in natively. Press record. Press pause to pause. Press record for more. Press stop to finish.

If you want the exact UX, then I dunno.

It's probably US-bought goods they're using to fire. Return customers are good for business.

They broke up a couple of months back. Something must have happened.

The more things are added in the continuity, Obi-wan becomes a weirder character.

Episode 5's retcon of Anakin Skywalker turns him into a liar. 6's retcon of Leia makes him into an even greater liar. Maybe he had his reasons to lie that hard, but yeesh.

Then we get to the prequels. He is warned that the senate is led by a sith lord. Pretty much ignores it. Our dude also trains space Hitler despite initial protests on picking up "another pathetic lifeform".

Episode 3: He is given the chance to kill him, can't do it. Yet in episode 5 and 6 Obi is egging Luke on to kill his own father.

With the Obi-wan series we are given even more meat to this with him once more backing out from killing a defenseless Anakin/Vader.

With all that said, Obi remains my favorite. There is some dissonance in the story, but I like to think that we are viewing the history of Star Wars through several accounts, which lends to different perspectives.
