One statue of liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World, Liberty Island, NYC) is approximately 4 times the size of one statue of liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World replica, Île aux Cygnes, Paris).
I am sympathetic to your analogy. I think it works well enough.
But it falls a bit short in that encyclopedias, lossy or not, shouldn't affirmatively contain false information. The way I would picture a lossy encyclopedia is that it can misdirect by omission, but it would not change A to ¬A.
I am not sure I would rely on observations of gyms and beaches for whether people are healthier for fear of selection bias. Going to the beach and seeing mostly fit bathers is like going to the hospital and seeing mostly sick people and thinking that can be generalized to society.
Why would you ask old people if young people are healthier than they were? Surely, Spain compiles medical statistics.
Anyway, Spain appears to have the same weight issues as everywhere else:
Because the device records detailed usage information with timestamps such as device locks/unlocks, the screen lighting up and going dark, apps going in and out of focus, and in many cases details of exactly what you were doing in the app.
I followed the Murdaugh murder case a while back and that level of evidence was critical
The father killed his family and had a pretty good shot at sowing reasonable doubt until they pulled his sons phone telemetry and it showed the son unlocking his phone and checking socials at a time that conflicted with the dads story.
Phones truly are a surveillance dream. You couldn’t ask for a more invasive tracking device, and people love it. You couldn’t pry a phone away from most people these days
This is seriously the thing I like the most about my 2017 and 2023 macbooks. The trackpad feels so good. Every other manufacturer that I have tried, and no it is not all of them but a lot, they all make my fingers feel bad after using them. I don't know if they are rougher or textured somehow? The only one that does make my finger pads feel sore is the macbook.
It's also the accuracy. I'm able to do light photo editing work right from the trackpad, even basic sketches and airbrushing. Have never been able to do anything remotely close with other laptops
Would definitely vote for that guy if I could. On the other hand, buying "no" has a 6 cent return by end of year which is roughly 10 months away. Thats near 8% annualized if you hold to maturity: (1+(6/94))^(12/10)-1, better than a T-bill right now.
I do wonder what would happen if some cardinal already named John or Gregory or some other indisputably papal name got elected. Would he keep his name?
When I put in timers -- for some reason my timer frequently/randomly just sets to 79 hours and a random assortment of minutes and seconds. I have no clue why. I always have to double check otherwise I might be waiting awhile.
It feels like it was a residual timer or something but I have never set anything like that - it is quite strange.
I don't know if this is an actual problem you have, but since Siri appears to be composed of independent voice-to-text and text-to-action systems, you can say "start a one three minute timer".
The problem is AI current best use case is creative work, art, music, programming, but skilled creative professionals is a/the core userbase for Apple products.
Apple is stuck and it’s AI will never be good enough until those creatives embrace it. Right now it’s disdain when mentioned.
An oft-cited quote goes something like this: "we wanted robots/AI to automate boring, routine, meaningless jobs to let people be free to pursue arts, music, creativity. It's a sad state of affairs that AI is taking over arts/music/creativity stranding people with boring, routine, meaningless jobs"
AutoCAD came to the Mac when Intel was shitting the bed (with aggressive OEM contracts for first party system integrators that prevented AMD adoption across HP/Dell/Lenovo-lines) and Windows 11 was being forced on users.
WINTEL played the monopoly game too hard and is starting to lose ground.
This is what I do. I cannot call it Twitter anymore because that makes me sad (I miss you Twitter 2008-2016). I cannot call it X because that is dumb. So Xitter it is.
Easy peasy.
