my comfortable little subset of C++

I also have one. I call it "C"

Yes. It's not wrong 100% of the time, otherwise you could make a fortune by asking it for investment advice and then doing the opposite.

What happened is like the current robot craze: they made the technology resemble humans, which drives attention and money. Specialized "robots" can indeed perform tedious tasks (CNC, pick-and-place machines) or work safely with heavier objects (construction equipment). Similarly, we can use AI to identify data forgery or fold proteins. If we try to make either human-like, they will appear to do a wide variety of tasks (which drives sales & investment) but not be great at any of them. You wouldn't buy a humanoid robot just to reuse your existing shovel if excavators are cheaper. (Yes, I don't think a humanoid robot with digging capabilities will ever be cheaper than a standard excavator).

I thought the regulators count their energy consumption in the weird, ambiguous unit of "gasoline gallon equivalent" = 33.4 to 33.7 kWh.

Umm... I don't? I pay for electricity in kWh. This is about electric cars.

That's a really weird way to measure one's fitness. Still, exhaling takes less than 3 seconds! /s

Cameras are not too great. Ground-station-based radio positioning systems, some of which can be used to enhance GPS precision to centimeters, already exist. (The ground stations, in a mesh tens of kilometers apart, get their position to that precision by averaging GPS over several days.) I'm pretty sure there is already a system on non-GPS frequencies too.

Good but does anyone outside the US even use equivalent gasoline volume to measure electrical energy? Ergo, how much is that in kWh/100 km?

2 inches of what? If it's hair, I'm disappointed but still amused at this way to advertise a regular hairdresser service

I know that you cannot rely on peeing/pooping harder for weight loss but how is "in" a unit of weight?

Well, only some plastics can be recycled, and not very well at that. Plastic manufacturers have known this for 50+ years and never told us.

GIMP's mission statement is 1. be hateful to use

It hurts to say but you're right. I was like "can't you remap the right mouse button to another tool? Everything in the context menu is in the Menu bar regardless" and they responded with "nope, design philosophy"

Sure, it's only garbage people who litter. But don't forget that it was lobby of the plastic industry who overemphasized the waste and recycling system as a solution to pollution, as opposed to reducing consumption.

Amicable with benefits

While you're at it, solve the "all perfect numbers end with a 6 or 8" conjecture.

Building one with the old proven design takes about 15 years.

Source? I'd say the median is closer to 8, 15 years is more like the worst 5-15% percentile.

Does not even strip the tracking parameter (not that it matters)

Another calendar bug?

Our train network is held to high standards, or so I thought. Very disturbing.
