There is a lot of infrastructure around the MRI in order to support liquid helium storage, cycling, and inter-device pathways. It isn't just what you see in the room. It might still be a large machine, but a bunch of bottlenecks disapp

What are you talking about... Tesla is one of only a handful of OEMs that can even issue OTA updates. Their cars from 2013 can still get modern features OTA. Please explain how you classify that as a train wreck compared to software cobbl

Do you feel like taste is a weak sense, or is your sense ~what you think others are experiencing. Since smell is an important factor of taste, do you find food exciting?

Get an electric or induction stove top. Obviously still possible to leave it on, but you'll get visual cues.

Exactly. Made several similar ones and had a 'lock' screen that was blank until you input the right key combination, or exited otherwise. Programming it meant I knew the content well enough to never need it.

Internet Explorer is still very much alive for millions of people. Releasing the source would mean unlocking way more exploits on those people, with no plan to patch.

I've had my touchpad randomly stop working. Sometimes a restart fixed it, sometimes it required a deep dive into driver land. Something so basic that should just work. I am not aware of any trackpad failures on Mac.

More "quality" data equals more better. The argument here is the LLM generated text is now going to enter the corpus, muddying the waters and reducing the quality.

NACS can be plugged in one handed by a child. CCS1 needs perfect alignment which can be a struggle for a large man using 2 hands in optimal conditions. NACS cables are lighter and thinner, which really matters when it is cold and the cables

They were forced to make EA as part of Dieselgate. If most vehicles is the U.S. are on NACS, they will be forced to switch by market forces alone.

The government is actually requiring CCS1 (currently) to get that funding. This may change as more dominoes fall as others adopt NACS. Considering that nearly all U.S. manufacturers are now switching off of CCS1, this requirement makes no s

Lots of things don't work until they do, and then iteration can be rapid. In addition, solutions for the same problem tend to have drastically different limitations and bottlenecks. Any new breakthrough can move the boundaries forward

This is fair, to a point. A sixteen year old should be allowed to train or practice some skills on a construction site, but shouldn't be there for a full 10 hour shift. The reason young adults are restricted from certain work activitie

I feel for you, but in this case it sounds reasonable, at least as a first step. OTC medicines tend to be less potent than their prescribed counterparts. This is to protect people who don't know what they need from themselves (and many

If Microsoft asked you to make a donation for a product, you'd probably also scoff at the idea. It is a term that carries lots of connotations, and people are far less likely to do than simply buy a product.

Solutions will be quickly iterated once we have feet on the Moon. Hopefully within a few years of that, there will be cheap and reliable solutions. Being able to test with real humans will go so much faster than sandbox tests on Earth.
