I've absolutely no idea; I just kept typing, and when I posted, two of them turned up.

When we asked about it and how other clients used it they had to confess that their other users didn't use the UI, but typed their own front-end and only used the back-end
We were basically testing their UI and in the end my client got a discount for contributing to their product
The back-end is just clunky too, it's the front-end that we would save the most time on if it didn't have all these bugs...
It's better now and if you know the application you can make simple forms quite fast... But it's all forms, for AJAX you have to do extra work and it's only more difficult.

The company, which has attracted nearly $30 million in funding from a SoftBank-owned firm and others, is reportedly relying mostly on human engineers, while using hype around AI to attract customers and investment that will last it until it can actually get its automation platform off the ground. Now I know who was submitting all the 'code plz' requests
I'm so very shocked that someone would be dishonest in the AI space.

AIs learn by repeatedly seeing similar behaviour in slightly different input data.
It's no wonder Skynet decided to kill us all.

It's not AI hype. The human engineers they employ don't possess any real intelligence. They're just artifically intelligent.

Is it that their stakeholders could not differentiate between natural intelligence and artificial intelligence?

It needs to use blockchain somehow.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

Essentially, then, it gets added to a finite FiFo queue of bug reports that no-one ever does anything with.

Amazon's Rekognition system wrongly matched one in five Californian politicians with images from a database of 25,000 wanted criminals' mugshots in tests by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Sounds about right
(Without any desire to be political, just glib)

Most politicians belong in criminal databases.

Sorry, I don't understand.
What do they mean by "wrongly"?

They matched hard criminals with a politician database, but at the sight of politicians everybody got sick and the criminals complained they wanted to go back to their solitary cells.

Most of the industry is now sold on the idea that pushing code to production on a Friday is a bad practice. Weekends are overrated?
Or just fear every code deployment? (Hi Chris! )

At my last job there was a policy to do only one release per month because the "implementation manager" would be too busy otherwise (this was an "Agile" environment, mind you)
I'm all for constantly deploying every new feature or bug fix as soon as it's available, even on Fridays.
Because if you can pull that off you're doing something right.
I've done plenty of releases on Fridays.
Although, when customers could go and ask questions, like a complete makeover, I'd wait until Monday, but only because you're fully staffed to answer customer questions for the next few days.

We don't do Friday deployments.
