The guardrails aren't the only things being stolen for scrap, they're just what the article focuses on. There's a link included to an article about streetlight copper theft which probably costs even more, and another about te

Looks like the same is happening here: > The next step the agency is considering is using fiberglass composite instead of aluminum to construct guard rails “to remove the value to the thieves.”

I'm wondering if it's possible to make a "reasonable" looking frame (that sits entirely outside the plate, not obstructing or obscuring it) for a license plate that breaks up the shape (with the same colors) to reduce de

Fighting this kind of surveillance is definitely protecting civil liberties. And if you don't like the ACLU, the IJ is also fighting: https://ij.org/issues/ijs-project-on-the-4th-amendment/ https:/&#x2F

It seems to be the opposite near me. There's a few well off neighborhoods that I've noticed have cameras all over, but the area near my work where there's new piles of broken glass every morning has nothing (not that I want

Yes, but that's not a novel part of this. We've been able to do that for a while (a long while if you count binocular or time-of-flight vision systems).

I have the option for either, but it's an option I'll never choose. My issue with Copilot wasn't speed, it's quality. The only thing that has to be fast is the text-completion part, which Grok isn't replacing. The c

Yeah, I tried it in Copilot and it's fast, but I'd rather have a 2x smarter model that takes 10x longer. The competition for "fast" is the existing autocomplete model, not the chat models.

I think they're okay, except for Disk Utility. The old icon had an out of date image of an HDD, but why would you associate an Apple logo with disks? It's not like it only works on drives sold by Apple. The wrench part is fine, bu

This approach is how I prefer to use it too. I write, it gives feedback, I revise based on which parts I thought it was right about. If I don't want to read raw LLM output, why would I make anyone else do it?

I was boycotting Kroger for a long time over a different thing they were doing. The self-checkouts (and a lot of the time there isn't another option) had a camera that watched what you put in your bag. If you didn't move what you

There's a smaller grocery store here where the self checkouts actually advertise that you can scan two things before putting them away (and you can!). It really should be standard.

Annoyingly, Reuters' article discussing it doesn't include the actual example, so we can't judge for ourselves what it actually said. They implied it was allowed because it had a "this is false" disclaimer.
