It seems weird to target those consoles. They are wildly different.

Flathead is a description of the head profile, like panhead. Slotted is the screwdriver type that is just a single slot.

TLDR: The statistics only work if the host has to reveal a goat and offer to let you switch.

In the show the question is based on, the host didn't always open an incorrect door after a guess. He didn't always allow them to switch. He also offered money instead of opening a door at all in some cases. He could use these tools to get the outcome he wanted most of the time.

Generative AI doesn't get any training in use. The explosion in public AI offerings falls into three categories:

  1. Saves the company labor by replacing support staff
  2. Used to entice users by offering features competitors lack (or as catch-up after competitors have added it for this reason)
  3. Because AI is the current hot thing that gets investors excited

To make a good model you need two things:

  1. Clean data that is tagged in a way that allows you to grade model performance
  2. Lots of it

User data might meet need 2, but it fails at need 1. Running random data through neural networks to make it more exploitable (more accurate interest extraction, etc) makes sense, but training on that data doesn't.

This is clearly demonstrated by Google's search AI, which learned lots of useful info from Reddit but also learned absurd lies with the same weight. Not just overtuned-for-confidence lies, straight up glue-the-cheese-on lies.

The article seems to have misunderstood the stats that he provided.

He was showing crashes of a single component of Nvidia drivers while running Warframe. Any crashes within Warframe proper aren't included.

It still demonstrates that a CPU flaw is causing stability issues in areas that are rock-solid for everyone else.

That's exactly what it is. Firefox's advanced tracking protection blocks connections to social media sites from other sites so that social media can't see your behavior on the rest of the Internet.

Twitter started moving some things to a different domain and FF saw it as a third-party, blocking connections from it to the old Twitter domains.

Yet another reason the rebrand is dumb.

The regulatory agency is pretty large, but it's headed by a 5-member commission.

Have you ever heard big cats? They sound like little cats but... deeper. I feel like dinosaurs would sound like birds with similar deepening, depending on the size of the dino.

They are facing a genuine supply issue. A different company made a sudden move because they wanted to maximize profits.

Tyson, one of the main chicken processors, killed their no-antibiotics program at the end of 2023. They moved from claiming meat came from chickens that had had no antibiotics used (NAE) to claiming no human-relevant antibiotics had been used (NAIHM).

The rest of the market can't meet the demand for NAE, at least not in the short term.

Yeah, I've taken a breath in a high-CO2 environment a few times. The whole body freaks out instantly. Not fun.

That's the joke. Jackman is too tall and handsome? Have AU Wolverine be even taller and more handsome.

They come freshly certified. The operator is then responsible for regular checks at a variety of intensities as the aircraft ages.

The incident aircraft was delivered three months ago.
