I believe they were responding to your "confirmation bias, how?" question, rather than the narrative around thermometers. So from that lens, the confirmation bias is choosing to show temperature (objectively measured with assumed-reliable instruments / thermometers), but arguably choosing to hide other kinds/categories of data.
Fwiw, I am not backing them up, since I do not know what other data they might be referring to (and I am not very knowledgeable in topics within climate science).
Fwiw--it's not digitally removed, it is just behind her sleeve. In the video she starts in the same pose and you can't see the text, but you can once she moves her arm.
Bit of an aside, but I just checked them out and TIL that Immich (which I use as my primary photos solution) is also a FUTO product (the website says "powered by FUTO").
Video description, from the Velcro brand YouTube channel:
Our Velcro Brand Companies legal team decided to clear a few things up about using the VELCRO® trademark correctly – because they’re lawyers and that’s what they do. When you use “velcro” as a noun or a verb (e.g., velcro shoes), you diminish the importance of our brand and our lawyers lose their insert fastening sound. So please, do not say “velcro shoes” (or “velcro wallet” or “velcro gloves”) - we repeat “velcro” is not a noun or a verb. VELCRO® is our brand. #dontsayvelcro
Unsure how you are intending to use it for 1:1s and meetings--I don't believe this has a camera, so it can't be your primary device you are taking the call on. Of course, as a note-taking device during a meeting, this would shine! :)
Tangential, but if your table doesn't break in the next few days then you won't be able to report back, since editing and replying to comments get disabled after some days. I don't know what the exact time frame is like though.
This reminds me of an internet phenomenon I learnt about recently: the Backrooms [1]. The concept instantly reminded me of some psychedelic horrors from the 80s in terms of emotional response. I think this game might trigger a similar response.
If you're in the US, then I can recommend privacy.com
My current bank (Wise) also offers virtual debit cards. I am in the UK now and Wise works well. I still use both since I still have my American bank account though.
I agree, and this is one of the things that are problematic with academia. Not that scientific rigor / work / dissemination shouldn't be rewarded--it should. But so should work like OP's.
My read of it is that's exactly what they were saying. The software replaced "ass" with "*", which made it even worse because now it read like the software was correcting the n-word (and in turn suggesting the person was using the n word).
Ironic, to some degree. I agree with the overall sentiment,but:
> There's no benefit gained, whatsoever, from moving content to the title bar.
But also:

>>The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, 'I don't see the use of this; let us clear it away.' To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: 'If you don't see the use of it, I certainly won't let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.'
There are always pros and cons to every design decision. As technology develops, we create new tools to interact with an ever-expanding content base. By moving things to the title bar, you gain back some real estate that you can dedicate to this ever expanding set of other tools and content.
There are other design paradigms that can be used for this, but it's a fairly simple (and naive) implementation / solution to this problem to move some of the stuff to the title bar which (visually) appears to be wasted space. But visual space != interactive space, so
>infer that the model which has seen all of the data will be better than the model which has seen only some of the data.
It really depends upon the data. A smaller set of data that mostly consists of "truth" might be better than a larger dataset that also has many "lies".
Perhaps what you mean is that the model might be more representative, rather than _better_.
1. I don't know what kind of world you live in to think that USD 3500 is "less than one week of a developer salary for most companies." I think you really just mean FAANG (or whatever the current acronym is) or potentially SV / offices in cities with very high COL.
2. The problem is scaling. To support billions of search queries you would have to invest in a lot more than a single GPU. You also wouldn't only need a single van, but once you take scaling into account even at $3500 the GPUs will be much more expensive.
That said, costs will come down eventually. The question in my mind is whether OpenAI (who already has the hardware resources and backed by Microsoft funding to boot) will be able to dominate the market to the extent that Google can't make a comeback by the time they're able to scale.
