Nearly all food in the US has barcodes. Produce, meat, etc might not always, but simply search those the same as you'd ask ChatGPt.

I tend to believe that the MAGA movement will stop and end when Trump is out of power. I think people will return to being okay with boring politics and not attention grabbing personalities once he exits the picture. On both sides. That&#x2

I wanted to say maybe the 2nd pilot could double as a flight attendent if they're not needed full time in the cockpit. Still retains redundancy while saving the airline money. The problem with that is most skills need to be practiced.

Where a lot of these tools fail is "first instruction accuracy". Put another way, what percent of requests are fulfilled accurately without needing to clarify your intention to the AI. For voice assistants to really work, they nee

This is a reminder of how prediction markets don't always accurately estimate probability of events happening. The most interesting part of the article IMO was the fact that the 3% probability is artificially high because there is no o

I don’t see why that can’t be replicated in vocational trades. Main challenge there is you don’t have a plumbing/electrical conglomerate like you have in tech to standardize recruiting.

I’ve never understood this (and really would like to). Why on earth does Google redirect to YouTube and then back to Google when logging in… The only reason I can think of is to sync user session cookies across domains?

Using android on a laptop with a keyboard and mousepad was always an awkward experience. It's kind of like trying to use an iPad as your main computing device. Similarly bad experience. Hopefully they work on that.

Another way to think about it, are you able to tolerate the less than perfect aspect of a job while still being pleasant to coworkers. A lot of people can’t, and a lot of companies try to avoid those people.
