The “Tech” in the company’s name was inspired by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where Herbert Kalmus and Daniel Frost Comstock received their undergraduate degrees in 1904 and were later instructor
Having ‘tech’ in the name doesn’t seem particularly unique to MIT to me but apparently that’s the link if you can still read after trying to parse that title.
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it. For in the day that thou eatest thereof, thou shalt surely die.
Sounds like a lie to me but I don’t know the original Hebrew so maybe it depends on your translation. To be fair it would be on the mild side of morally objectionable stuff God does in the bible.
Also God kinda lied to them or at least deceived them by saying they’ll die if they eat the fruit from memory.
Only a few know the truth, it was a tomato. I know because the way that it is.
Hmm, I don’t get the reference. I guess I’ll just have to add it to the list of mysteries like where KFC originated, the main dish at waffle house and what post hole diggers are used for.
And perfume as well, at least from what I remember from Anno
Very interesting, but how did it get its name?
Such great products. Now we get…image generation, inpainting and a conversational AI. All technically impressive, but those older products were actually functional and solved everyday problems.
Wow that is pretty damning. I hope Google is adding all this stuff in with the replacement of Assistant but it’s Google so I guess they won’t. I replaced Assistant with Gemini a while back but I only use it for super basic stuff like setting timers so I didn’t realise it was this bad.
They did the same shit with Google Now, rolled it into Assistant but it was nowhere near as useful imo. Now we get yet another downgrade switching Assistant with Gemini.
As I like to say, there’s nobody Google hates more than the people that love and use their products.
Lighten up, mate. Get on the level of every actor who showed up in Extras.
Wow, that sounds so easy. I guess anyone can be successful!
For the CCP arbitrary enforcement is less a risk and more a guarantee.
This is a very interesting technological development. I’m pleased that I can keep up with all the latest advances like this in the technology community.

The thing that worries me about nuclear power is that it takes something like 7 years to build, and renewables are on a declining cost curve. If you finish building your reactor 7 years from now and you can’t compete with other forms of power generation, what do you do with that asset? Nobody will buy it, you can’t sell the product. That’s not even accounting for the payback period of it either.
I’m just a layman so I’m sure there are nuances I’m missing and I think we need all options on the table when it comes to moving away from fossil fuels. That said it seems like a very risky thing to be investing in to me.
