It can depend on your particular part of the tech-sphere. I barely saw anything about either of those, because I wasn't all that interested in AI things, and didn't really follow the kind of people who would talk about it. At most, it was a quick flash in the pan before it was overshadowed by other news.

China is already trying quite hard with its Great Firewall. We don't need to make their job easier for them.

Crack enough eggs, and you won't have any left for the omelette.

Wrong battery. You're thinking the high-voltage EV battery, but in this case, it was the 12V lead-acid accessory battery that died. Normally, that would be charged from the high voltage battery, if the car was running.

In this case, it might just have been bad luck with a worn-out battery.

The toddler was strapped into the seat at the time, so chances are that they would not be able to find and open the door that way anyhow.

I don't think that's how you're meant to use a WHERE.

It even has questionably-helpful mysterious blinky lights at the bottom right which may or may not do anything useful.

I think they'd be more likely to say homosexuality is illogical and repress it. Could make an interesting plot point.

The converse is that making a specific distinction based on sexuality like that is also illogical in what is supposedly the enlightened 24th century Federation.

They're not the ancients of the 21st century, who would be so concerned with such primitive things.

The internet archive plans to appeal the ruling, so the fight is hardly over at this juncture.

Would be interesting to see where it goes.

It's arguably worse, since it seems to be more pervasive than crypto and NFTs were at their peak.

Crypto never really hit the mainstream, and even NFTs were still fringe. Whereas AI and AI accelerators are packed into basically every new phone and (Intel) processor.

You wouldn't start off an e-mail with "My Dear X", or "Dearest X", since that would be too personal for a professional email, so "To X" being more impersonal seems like it would make the letter more professional-sounding, compared to "Dear X".

I'm reminded of the lecturer who was accused of being an AI when they sent an email.

Getting the triple-whammy of being accused of using an AI when you didn't, drawing a blank during an oral interview/explanation, and then being penalised like you'd used one anyway, would be hellish.

It'd be an awful security risk if they did. You can't trust that the USB stick contains the resume to begin with.

What caused the shift from calling things like rheostats and condensers to resistors and capacitors, or the move from cycles to Hertz?

It seemed to just pop up out of nowhere, seeing as the previous terms seemed fine, and are in use for some things today (like rheostat brakes, or condenser microphones).
