I think it’s more that nobody knows the policy. It’s all ML changes few people understand or can even communicate. I don’t expect google would explain if they knew how it worked, but they also cannot explain how their technology works.

This is why I have a local recording setup. I’d prefer to have my recordings stored remotely since if they’re locally stored they could also be locally destroyed. But it’s clear that the smart camera cloud recording solutions consider these

This is just lack of auto renew protections. Consumers are wise to this, and they’re not really canceling. I bet if you could turn off auto-renew they wouldn’t cancel. But, to nobody’s surprise, the MBAs don’t like options where the user do

It's too bad HN shut down the parent article. But you asked a good question about what early modern persons thought about early modern vaccine analogues. Prior to the smallpox vaccine in the late 18th century, there was a smallpox inoc

Dawkins is not a stupid man, yet he does not make arguments that the embryo isn't a human life in all his erudite prose. Who will he convince? Our early-modern ancestors, and even those only a few generations ago were more than aware t
