  • This is definitely AI but similar ovens used to be built and, I'm sure, still are.

    However, there are still plenty of issues.

    Open flame plus a flammable painting. And the painting is right over the oven where it will get covered in grease. And that's a gas range with no hood.

    There's a reason ovens usually open from the top these days. It's safer and allows you to peak without opening the entire oven or leaning at an odd angle. Locking handles are also no longer used because little kids can climb in and accidentally get stuck.

    The multiple drawers sounds like a good idea but it just means that you can't cook large dishes. Usually you'd only see styles like this in restaurant kitchens because they will know how large of an oven they need and can benefit from having multiple sizes for different dishes.

  • You get people to "pledge" donations. It's partly about raising awareness for the charity and partly because a lot of people are more likely to donate to these types of drives versus donating just because.

  • Adam Smith, the father of capitalism, was pretty clear that a free market still needs protection.

    A man must always live by his work, and his wages must at least be sufficient to maintain him. They must even upon most occasions be somewhat more; otherwise it would be impossible for him to bring up a family, and the race of such workmen could not last beyond the first generation...

    Every species of animals naturally multiplies in proportion to the means of their subsistence, and no species can ever multiply beyond it. But in civilised society it is only among the inferior ranks of people that the scantiness of subsistence can set limits to the further multiplication of the human species; and it can do so in no other way than by destroying a great part of the children which their fruitful marriages produce.

    The liberal reward of labour, by enabling them to provide better for their children, and consequently to bring up a greater number, naturally tends to widen and extend those limits. It deserves to be remarked, too, that it necessarily does this as nearly as possible in the proportion which the demand for labour requires. If this demand is continually increasing, the reward of labour must necessarily encourage in such a manner the marriage and multiplication of labourers, as may enable them to supply that continually increasing demand by a continually increasing population.

  • Iirc the issue was that the researchers left the manufacturer's logo on the scans.

    All of the negative scans were done by the researchers on the same equipment while the positive scans were pulled from various sources. So the AI only learned to identify which scans had the logo.

  • People who pour grease down the drain have definitely never unclogged a drain before.

    Usually something like half fibers (hair, tampons, "flushable" wipes, etc), half grease and fats.

    If it's a solid at room temp, it probably shouldn't go down the drain.

  • Except they have a much higher rate of lost or miscounted ballots.

    But the two methods can be used together to create an improved system: electronic ballots with a printed 'receipt'. My state uses this method. Before submitting your ballot, it displays the paper receipt and asks you to confirm your choices. If it's incorrect or you want to change it, you can reject the ballot and it is immediately voided in front of you. If it's fine, you press a button and it submits both the digital and paper copies of your ballot.

    Election monitors can then validate the calculated results against the paper receipts.

  • Even Adam Smith was pretty clear what happens when capitalism is unregulated:

    We rarely hear, it has been said, of the combinations of masters, though frequently of those of workmen. But whoever imagines, upon this account, that masters rarely combine, is as ignorant of the world as of the subject. Masters are always and everywhere in a sort of tacit, but constant and uniform combination, not to raise the wages of labour above their actual rate. To violate this combination is everywhere a most unpopular action, and a sort of reproach to a master among his neighbours and equals. We seldom, indeed, hear of this combination, because it is the usual, and one may say, the natural state of things, which nobody ever hears of...

    The liberal reward of labour, therefore, as it is the necessary effect, so it is the natural symptom of increasing national wealth. The scanty maintenance of the labouring poor, on the other hand, is the natural symptom that things are at a stand, and their starving condition that they are going fast backwards.

  • Its range is also only 180 miles. The smaller battery definitely helps keep the cost down.

    This car might not be for me but I definitely see its value and hope they're successful.

  • Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

    Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.
