Ford had to hire back former engineers to fix mistakes made by its automated systems

Lol. Probably got bonuses then celebrated for identifying the issue and fixing it.

America’s data-centre backlash puts the AI boom at risk. Opposition is spreading across the country
What are all of these data centers for? Do they really need hundreds of data centers? Are they going to build a bunch of data centers and half sit unused or underutilized?

It literally is. You can't vote blue if you have stronge conservative values. I had a coworker (unsolicited) tell me that essentially he would support anything he considered conservative (non-woke) even if it meant burning everything down and starting over. Not sure why he felt a conversation about baseball at a company dinner I was paying for as a company event needed to be redirected to political beliefs. But there we all were sitting there all being very uncomfortable.

Toyota And Nissan Admit Their American-Made Vehicles Aren't Up To Japanese Standards
Then why doesn't Toyota and Nissan do something about it? It's their product, regardless of where it's made.
Also why are they shipping vehicles with software created for North America then acting like it's Americans faults that features don't work or only come in English, French and Spanish.
Sounds like they're making bad decisions and trying to blame it on cultural differences

Yes, but I guess your family can argue that you had the right of way when a giant truck turns you into a hood ornament because you were watching Facebook shorts instead of looking both ways before crossing a street

"Very modular" sounds like a bad thing to me, if the essential part's and pieces that make it "go" don't meet the minimum expectations of a gas powered vehicle in the same price range (plus 20%) then it's DOA. If the platform is weak then adding stuff is only going to make it worse.
Sort of like buying a 2010 Ford Ranger 4cyl 2wd then putting side steps, spot lights, aftermarket heated seats, aftermarket stereo, lift spacers, and fat tires. But at the end of the day, you're still driving a piece of crap.
If the base parts aren't great then why bother.

How come people are stupid nowadays? Especially on social media
People where/are just as stupid. Now they have no shame and lots of platforms to feed their stupidity.
Before you climb on a high horse, we are all stupid in our own way, it's the ignorance of the stupidity that is the problem. Not knowing that you are stupid is the greatest super power ever

Thanks. It's ok, they're kind of proving my point.

Computer model could enable bridges and buildings that use less material
Reply in thread
I've never heard a good engineer ever say "let's use an unnecessary amount of material", usually engineers say "this is what you need to achieve the goal and this is why....". Then management adds contingency while trying to also cut cost, then the project manager orders material too early to drive revenue and it expires or get lost, then the crew always has waste, the list goes on.
Efficient engineering is rarely the problem, but if there's a tool that reliably makes my job easier and faster then sure, bring it on

How much money have you lost while gambling in one day?
About $50, which is all I was willing to spend that night after my gambling parents dragged me to a casino. Then as I was leaving my father gave me $200 to stay and keep gambling. I stuck around long enough to satisfy him, walked out with $200, so profit $150.

Valve won’t subsidise its pricey Steam Machine as there’s no guarantee the open system will be used for Steam
Ok, but $1,100 for the base Steam Machine. Sure it's a decent PC but what am I saving or gaining by buying it? Where's the value?
I can build an equivalent or better small PC or buy an equivalent laptop for about the same price. Why would I buy a Steam Machine?
If it was priced under $800, done, take my money.

Are you gonna be buying a Steam machine?
I really want a powerful miniPC to replace my Rokus and also play 80% of my library. But $1100 for the 512gb without a controller is a hard pill to swallow. I can get an equivalent laptop for about the same price or less, and it's still portable.
I reserved a 512gb and a 2tb, but I may hold out for the Frame. I fell like Valve should rethink the strategy, because there are a lot of console gamers that would break into the market if the price is right, $1,100 is too high. Especially since it still won't be able to play games with anti-cheat, so most of the competitive games aren't even an option.

MAGA arguments
Probably because he never would and everyone would be in disbelief that someone would make such an outlandish announcement.
It would be more believable if he sent ICE in to arrest the baby to deport it after ICE set the fire.

Please mind the gap
Shoe strings would most likely break before any real harm was done, probably just make you fall on your face. Flip flops and sandals are a real danger, you can lose a toe or a chunk of your foot.

TIL during the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Usain Bolt ate almost nothing but chicken McNuggets. He went on to win 3 gold medals and set 3 world records.
This makes it sound like he won because he ate McDonald's nuggets. Fixed it.

The best answer to "when did Star Trek get woke?"
Reply in thread
Don't have time? 90s Trek had 20+ episode seasons and a season every year, current Trek is 6 or 8 episodes every two years. While the production quality has gotten better, the writing has somehow gotten worse.
