"Unconstitutional" arguments only go so far. I am not America (I'm a proud Australian) so I can easily see the incredibly obvious and ridiculous destruction "freedom" in your country entails. Anonymity services can

Hahaha. I've never seen this standards page before. I work in Australia's building industry so I find this page particularly enjoyable. Thank you for sharing the page and your sharp wit with me.

Not sure about "grapefruit-sized" when compared to the hand holding the object in the picture. Assuming it's the one they are writing about. I'd say it's closer to the size of a lime. Unless that person has a uniq

Assuming teachers were in class teaching when this occurred. What do teachers use their phones for during class that they would have noticed this? Genuinely intrigued as you never caught a teacher on their mobile phone in class when I was i

Oddly there is no mention of being safer to flying animals like bats for example, which have their sonar wigged out by the turbines. I assume the kite would be friendlier to our flying friends but I guess this is not a concern in every cou

It is mind boggling how a high level Apple employee would not use Apple's own parental control abilities to safe guard their child's online activity. They aren't even supposed to be using the IG platform at twelve years old.

I very much doubt it. There's a lot more functionality to Auctioneer then what was mentioned. Also, there are other popular auction add-ons, I think they would have just said it if they created Auctioneer.

I agree with your disagreements. I am really bad with any coding, I have tried to learn Python and CSS several times now and can't remember a single thing. At the age of 12 I was easily able to learn HTML to build functional websites.

"Large language models lack deep insights or a theory of mind" Funnily enough, this statement also applies to people that are scared of AI. Maybe a bit off topic but does anyone else have that friend who sends them fear mongering

Oh definitely, but still, they will find out very quickly if that submission was worked on by several people day one when you ask them to do x task and they can't do it. It's a silly suggestion and borderline conspiracy theory for

Logically, look at the scenes, the colours, textures and the theme... They all match. Also, it's not a cash prize. The prize is a tour of an animation studio. Tell me what incentive would there be to falsify this kind of submission?
