Where the USG sues the money and not you. And expects the money to defend itself?
My Google Home speaker (early version) is getting long in the tooth and has become flaky.
This is why I avoid Beyond Meat (and Impossible) products: too close for comfort.
Vegetables and grains have a great taste in themselves; they don't need to imitate meat to be tasty!

shows you the switches on a 787. They are protected and hard to futz around with by mistake.
I didn't grow up with grandparents, so I have a natural affinity for grandmas. Some of my most cherished moments have been interacting with old ladies in places like Cinque Terre, Portofino, Brussels, Tokyo, NYC etc. I like to walk around the neighborhoods, off the beaten track, and if I get a chance to interact with an old lady, even better.
Coming from SF, a couple of thoughts came to mind: first: wow these bikes have been sitting here for a long time. And second: this must be a _really_ safe place, because in SF, a bike parked outside won't last a day or two.
Funny thing is: the area didn't look rundown or anything. It was clean and well maintained. Except for the bikes in vines.
Personally, I don't understand why Iran had to meddle in Palestine. When Palestine's own neighbors don't give a rat's ass for the suffering of the Palestinians, who are these mullahs sitting 1000 mi away to get involved?
After the first Gulf War itself, Iranian rulers should have seen the light and stayed tf out of the US's way (and Israel might just be the 51st state, practically speaking). Just work on improving your economy, educating your kids, building up your infrastructure and turn Iran into one of the world's top economies.
But noooo...... those idiots had to get involved in Palestine: supporting Hamas, Hezbollah, etc.... WHY? Just why?!?
IIRC when Microsoft invested in OpenAI, it was supposed to use Azure only.
She was easily over 90, if not over 95.
People like her could really benefit from a personal Waymo. Just sell a car with FSD built in, at the level of a Waymo, and bam! That would make so many senior citizens' lives easier!
Edit: read the article. No mention of Yann. What kind of journalists are these people, to not get viewpoints from different angles? They might as well just reproduce press releases and be done with it.
Every evening, after a day of hiking, I would walk into a casino, sit down at the gambling machine, insert a $20 bill, and hit "drink service". A few minutes later a free beer emerged, and I promptly hit "cash out", collected my $20 and walked away (after a stop at the free popcorn machine too).
I think I may have come away with more than 80% of their clientele.
I was in South-Eastern California just visiting desolate areas. One place I stayed at had absolutely nothing: the nearest place to get food or gas was Bishop, CA, a 50-minute drive. Coming from a big city the desolation is appealing at first, but gets tiring pretty soon.

If someone were to claim: no computer will ever be able to beat humans in code design, would you agree with that? If the answer is "no", then there's your proof.
