Is this a real recall, or a sham one where they say they're doing it but don't actually make any effort to contact their victims because doing so would cost money to issue replacements?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

They are recalling them so they can harvest all the data they collected with the devices.

Computer scientists have created an AI program capable of predicting the outcome of human rights trials. Then they came for the judges, and I did not speak out...
|
|
|
|
|
I can't see why they call it AI - as I see it is a data analysing software, fine-tuned for the specific area...

'It is too early to unequivocally attribute these purported signals to the activities of extraterrestrial civilizations,' a group of scientists looking for aliens have warned – but the signals are encouraging Or it could just be the microwave on the fritz again

It seems the new generation of scientist have to learn a single phrase: 'I don't know'...
Skipper: We'll fix it.

On the upside, they managed to use two dozen words to say "I don't know". So if their science career doesn't work out, they'll have a bright future working in corporate PR.

Well, Dan, if this is what the aliens are telling you, I think you should just go with the flow; they are probably more interested in elephants than people, and I can see why.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

We've just decrypted this strange message from the stars.
We don't have it all yet, but transcript so far says:
"Are you paying too much on your car insurance?"

meh. It'll just be some physical anomaly that isn't present in our own solar system, so no-one knows how it works.

According to a new industry report from IDC out this morning, smartwatch shipments experienced “significant” declines in the third quarter, as total shipments were down 51.6 percent from the same time last year. From "zero" to negative?

Because people realised that you have to replace them to the latest models every year and suddenly it's much more cost effective long term to buy a Rolex?

So was it the journo who wrote that piece or their editor who took the conclusion "Sales dipped predictably due to Android Wear delay and the imminent and well-leaked Apple Watch 2.0 launch" and turned it into "Sales are tanking".
Sigh.

It's techcrunch I'm sure the editor had make it quite clear to his writers that he wants nothing but clickbait.

New research shows that the part of the brain that is activated during dishonesty responds less and less as we “get used” to cheating — and that could make us lie even more. Honestly?

So that's how politicians do it...
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Microsoft is working on a quantum computer that uses what are called “non-abelian anyons,” a quasiparticle that physicists aren’t sure even exist. So it runs Windows 10?
|

|
The best feature of the quasiparticle computer is that you can throw it through two windows simultaneously.

The coder you need may likely be on the other side of the world, according to recent research. Right here, of course
