I mean, smart fridge COULD be scanning its contents and adjusting the cooling intensity based on that. My dumb fridge always freezes vegetables because even when set to lowest setting the cooling is too much.
But corpos would rathed stuff ads everywhere instead of making actually usefull upgrades.
The rate is higher because we can "catch" more cases with better diagnosis.
Imagine machine that is throwing 100 balls per second.
Another machine that can catch 10 balls per second. You catch 10 balls.
Now newer machine can catch 20, and newer can catch 50.
Does that mean the number of thrown balls is higher? No. It just means we have machines better at caching them. The same goes for any illness, autism, schizophrenia, cancer, depression...
Some ilnesses we are better at curing, does that mean the the illness is getting weaker?
Although, being gravely negative comes with its own additional issues like worrying about possible negative future that in 99% of cases does not happen. We have one overly negative person in the family and it is wearing them down, all is bad, other people do [put anything that you'd think is absolutely fine] better/differently so we must be doing it wrong and it will fall/catch on fire/explode. Being positively realistic is IMHO the best path.
But what do I know, maybe that is just the positive side of me talking and some train really derails and hits me in my office in 4th floor.
I wouldn't say I am autistic, but reading social cues is sometimes really hard. I was pretty social in my 12-22 years. Now it's like "So I wasn't supposed to say that? How should I know?" Talking with clients on the phone is a pain because most of the time they dribble unnecessary stuff, unrelated to the issue we're supposed to take care of. I don't care how your day went an what not. I want you to tell me what you want from me so I can hangup the phone and get to work. Is that bad?
My screen almost cracked from the compacted stupidity in thus picture. I am so glad I don't live in USA. Not saying we have it that much better where I live, we have elections around the corner and our village idjits are loud, but atleast we do't have THIS.
Hell yeah, untill you run to cry home bacause someone said some vague word that by cosmic accident just happen to trigger your emotional barrier and you end up crying the rest of the night.
Only thing I have ised this for was making funny edit to have fun with my family and removig unwanted elements from photos (people on beach or trash in alleys), but I can imagine people will use this to fake their online lives even more.
