So the threat model is to prevent insurers from gaining knowledge that you buy 5L of sugary soda per week? I agree there is some privacy concern, but I am having a hard time articulating how or why that data might actually impact a person i

What is your threat model? Are you buying incriminating goods at the grocery store? What do you gain by putting yourself through all that? Or what are you preventing / protecting yourself from?

I think it's useful to replace "AI" with "app" any time you encounter it in the wild. AI is a set of computational techniques that is very broad. The problem with considering "the AI" or "an AI"

Too many bonuses and SLA contracts depend on the “status” for it to be a reliably self reported metric. When I was in one of these positions, I negotiated bonuses to allow for some failures specifically to avoid this type of conflict of int

The nuvifone was based on embedded Linux and the UI was implemented in a mix of Qt and possibly Tcl/Tk. I’m not sure how much Android played into things, but there was definitely inspiration from the iPhone. It was the first phone Garm

The things you mention after “For [the(sic)] example” are called features and they are considered as dimensions of the data. Layers are not strictly related to dimensions.

I'm guessing it is a lack of data - when I search for a book I'm currently reading (The Discovery of Slowness), there are no results.

MS Office search doesn't show me where in the menu the item I searched for is located - if I rely on the search, I haven't learned where the thing is in the menu.

I run my own mail server + spam filter, so I'll chime in. I have seen a high uptick in spam making it to my inbox in the last two weeks. I primarily rely on Spamhaus blocklists + a Bayesian filter trained on old spam. The uptick I have

Rewriting COBOL in javascript would make the codebase accessible to a larger pool of potential engineers who are also more likely to be up-to-date on best practices (as opposed to an engineer that has stagnated in COBOL for 30 years.) I&#x2
