>All of Google is AI. But you don’t see them bandying it around like a kid with new light up shoes. Google Calendar has that stupid icon on a feature for auto-selecting where you'll attend a meeting based on your office schedule. Th

Can't say I'm opposed to police acting with more agency when confronting the Breviks and Tarrants of the world. But a bureaucratic procedure enacted by the state isn't going to deter an individual operating on passion or reli

I'm a white NZer and feel no guilt whatsoever. I'm not responsible for the actions of my great great grandparents, and I don't think they were here in the 1840s regardless. Doesn't mean I deny what happened or think it w

Operating such a device in Japan puts you in a legal gray area, and depending on your behaviour could result in unwanted police attention. They will respond to reports of such devices being used near spaces frequented by women or children.

It's a pointless endeavour when there are those who'll believe religiously in bunk regardless. I spent a considerable amount of time during the pandemic refuting a "data scientist" on Twitter whose forte was misquoting B

How's this going to work in areas where there are few users? Do matches which might've been kind of marginal to begin with get put behind an even bigger paywall?

Microsoft doesn't have a great reputation among the Japanese public as an employer. My understanding is it's to do with a round of layoffs they conducted in the early 2000s which caused a huge stink. The story goes that this was t

What do you mean by lack of focus on family? Having lived here for the better part of a decade I've seen the opposite and tend to view it as one of the defining characteristics of Japanese culture. Things are changing policy-wise to ma

It literally says in the article that the mother was a promoter of consequentialism which excuses any act, no matter how dastardly, so long as you believe the end justifies the means. If she lacked a moral compass it's of no surpris

Try searching for a quote from an obscure show you watched when you were young. Not long ago Google would return pages of results. These days it's likely to return none.

As evidenced here the impact of account terminations can have a profound impact on a persons life. Email providers like Google should be treated as utilities and regulated as such, they should be legally obligated to communicate with their
