favicon.ico, retrieved by default by Internet Explorer and now most major browsers (short for Favorites Icon) and before tabs was used to put an icon on favorites shortcuts and desktop web shortcuts. Go ahead and use Internet Explorer to retrieve http://domain.com/ and shortly thereafter, check your web server logs to see a request to http://domain.com/favicon.ico - this behavior seems to be default in most browsers now. It also serves as the sole identifier on tabs on browsers with too many tabs open to show title text, which is the point of the story post.
Since the early days, support has been added to HTML to set its location/format manually with <link rel="shortcut icon" href="">.
Apple decided to completely forego the existing HTML, and then defines <link rel="apple-touch-icon"> to define the image that appears when you make a web page a shortcut on your phone/tablet home screen.
They only fed it perfect images, you have to assume. It doesn't "think" in terms of shapes directly - it's a lot to do with correlation of a vast data set.
If they had fed in hundreds of old, worn, defaced signs during the training phase, this probably wouldn't happen.
Bad data in, bad data out. This is what you get when you train your neural network with only "perfect" examples. It has no context for any variation whatsoever.
They said secured and updated. These are feature update releases, not just security updates. But these new features are required to be installed in order to continue to be eligible for security updates. Maybe someone in the EU will finally see this as bundling as severe as IE was and put up a fight.
Wouldn't that use some embedded form of Windows with a slower release cycle? At the very least, it could use Enterprise Windows on an LTSB - what hospital doesn't have an Enterprise setup?
they said that was enough for normal internet use because very little data goes up and most comes down.
And this right here is the difference between Title I and Title II classification. It's all about interconnection, not receiving information. Disproportionate up/down speeds are trying to force usage patterns to match what they want to sell.
Think about it this way: wild horses in wilderness areas do not need Internet access. So if you CHOOSE to live in the middle of nowhere (or BFE if you like), then don't expect or demand urban-level services. In fact, ifyou live in the middle of BFE, why don't you try building your own so we don't have to listen to your whining and crying all over the Internets. Now if you HAVE to live in the middle of nowhere, then it SUX 2 B U and STFU.
It cost more to run copper wireline back in the day. Running fiber in the same places is not sufficiently more complex to be considered impossible or unreasonable.
That's the secret. Get at least 1 year behind on all your favorite shows. It's what I've been doing for at least the past few years. For one, you get the experience of all the episodes being available at once. Even the free OTA shows - just record the entire season before you start to watch.
Imagine how long one of these will last with a battery! The problem is not with the capacity of batteries - the problem is with how many things a modern phone is asked to be.
The fact is, the original poster was probably referring to a zoomable telephoto lens anyway. Hate to say it, but a lot of vernacular uses the modifier instead of the main word - and linguistically speaking, it's still correct. Much how you use the term "radio" when what you really mean is a radio receiver. Or calling your mobile phone a "cell," when that's really just the name for the geographic divisions of the network. Or calling your mobile phone a "phone" when you really mean telephone (phone just means sound).
If the person didn't specifically agree for the photos to be published, there is a legal concept of a "model release" with respect to photos and commercial use. Commercial use may not be happening on the part of the uploader, but it certainly is with respect to the site and its advertising revenue.
I do the same, more or less, with Netflix (streaming, they don't have enough discs to try this with anymore). Falling a year or two behind was the best thing that ever happened to my TV viewing habits. In some cases, picking up shows that I missed 10 years ago but are available to watch all at once.
I mostly watch OTA shows, recorded onto my HTPC and don't start watching until the whole season airs (or the show is cancelled).
That does NOT mean you can infer that a woman with a mechanical engineering degree is LESS capable than a man with the same degree.
And I doubt he's claiming that either. But the fact is, there are fewer women with STEM degrees. Meaning the pool of really good talent is smaller by that definition. True, Google has access to the best of these. Elsewhere, you're going to have to admit that there are more well-qualified male candidates still seeking a job than women. The best and brightest women are going to have little problem finding a job.
Can't read that paper for free, but did you notice how all they claim is a correlation? Not a cause, just a correlation.
Well, sure. Scientifically speaking, you can't have a proper control group without some seriously questionable ethics. It will always be correlation unless you're mucking around injecting testosterone into fetuses. But there is a lot of evidence pointing to testosterone changing the structure of the brain during development. And it's not 100% strictly divided on male/female lines, which is why it's hard to see such a larger statistical male/female divide with these skills.

Because construction. Temporary restrictions. Car wrecks to route around. And on top of all that, really bad documentation of existing signs.

If they were competent police, this is definitely harassment and intent would be easy enough to prove.
Unless the AV companies are creating the malware, your comparison breaks down really quick.

The bitrate is fine. A delivery source with a small cap is not. And neither are the unreasonable prices of mobile broadband.
That's not even broadband by today's standards.

How is this tech?
Much of the discussion about tech is about the benefits it enables or the unintended consequences. This is the latter.
The fact is, the original poster was probably referring to a zoomable telephoto lens anyway. Hate to say it, but a lot of vernacular uses the modifier instead of the main word - and linguistically speaking, it's still correct.

I agree. The uploader is completely without liability, I think (IANAL), but the site probably should be.
If the person didn't specifically agree for the photos to be published, there is a legal concept of a "model release" with respect to photos and commercial use. Commercial use may not be happening on the part of the uploader, but it certainly is with respect to the site and its advertising revenue.
There is a difference between domain-specific terminology and common vernacular. Their use was the latter.
