The initial quote is very odd. Someone complaining you can't do newspaper layouts in Gemini. Newspaper layouts are determined by the needs of the medium, that being fixed content printed on paper of specific proportions. Gemini isn&#x2

No, you should buy the car that charges you $10k for self-driving and doesn't give you self-driving.

That’s basically what this experiment was. Show the origin only. The current page is obvious from the page itself.

Modern web doesn’t need cookie auth so let’s hope they move away from it. Cookies in general are an idea past expiration date.

Synchronization is important between parts of a composite system, this is why we have evolved to synchronically sleep, we even yawn together.

The problem with your stance is that URLs don’t matter. The only thing that matters is the origin. Sad their data didn’t confirm the obvious.

Imagine if we discover most of the brain's functionality isn't in the brain or any other identifiable part of the body. Rather the brain just connects to something else, that's outside the known timespace.

Apple's job doesn't end when you open the box. Unless you want a rootkit installed when you charge your phone with a public charger, it needs to be locked down. These restrictions are made for security and stability. If the averag

How many smartphone users want to use interrupts, tinker with firmware settings, hack the port, and so on? Exactly.

> why would we expect a specific sensation to always activate the same set of neurons over time? For at least two reasons. First, the perception of smell is extremely stable in humans. You can immediately recall a smell you smelled like

ANN are already producing phenomena that match our perception. The key difference is ANN is trained, then training stops, and it's used. And the brain has to always learn while in use.

That interface is based upon learning. It simply means the learning has to be ongoing.

Yes, of course, the UI most often has THE_THING_WE_ARE_TALKING_ABOUT. Sci-fi UI in the 60s was a TV screen showing THE_THING_WE_ARE_TALKING_ABOUT surrounded by hundreds of randomly blinking lamps with switches (all of them with no labels).

Honestly seems like a pretty stock "Hollywood Sci-Fi UI on Transparent Glass". It's fine, don't get me wrong, but if you focus on any of the shots and start thinking "what does this mean" the illusion falls apa

Wait so "because [Apple] have a monopoly" (which isn't correct, but let's put that aside) they can push an app and then act surprised about Apple enforcing the ToS they agreed to? Yeah that's not good enough.

How can you honestly tell a person who just shared their opinion "you don't exist"? I also would never enter my credit card in an app, UNLESS it's a huge, well-trusted brand (which this influencer app isn't). Many p

The only thing I don't understand is why these people push apps on the AppStore and then whine about the rules they've agreed to. Apple's 30% is infamous. It's not something obscure about iTunes use in nuclear weapons of
