From the article, with hidden text shown: The system alerted a Google AI, which went through its database of advertisers' products to find something that might be useful, even though it was eight times more expensive than the most effective remedy, then texted Spencer’s doctor, who approved its proposed course of action and agreed his cut of the profits.
No room for abuse there, is there?

A top tech exec thinks we need to slow down the internet a bit. That way, no one can catch up

He needs to start throwing shoes in those internet tubes.

The way I read it, what he really means is that we have to get rid of facebook and twitter. I just wonder if he himself realises that that is actually what he really means.

Scam calls are rising from about 3.7 percent of all calls just last year to nearly 30 percent of calls in 2018. By 2019, the number will be closer to 46 percent. But really - you HAVE won a cruise!

This will have a huge effect on my lifestyle.

I've experienced an increase of scam calls, but also a massive decrease in non-scam calls.
|
|
|
|
|
I can handle scammers but spammers
|
|

I'm honestly not sure the last time I had an incoming call that wasn't spam or a wrong number. (Maybe when I bought a car???) Or an out going one that wasn't a work related conference call.
And with ubiquitous caller ID on mobile phones these days, I'm surprised enough people are picking up on unknown callers to make it worthwhile. Some people have positions where they can't let voice mail screen incoming calls for them; but surely those people are a small minority these days.

A new study suggests employees nationwide are most concerned about their salary, underscoring a trend we’ve seen developing for some time. And bears

Perfectly on point. I always tell people who are afraid of spiders to divert that timorous energy in the direction of lions, because spiders won't rip 'em to shreds and eat 'em.
If you're going to be afraid of something, make sure it's worth being afraid of -- because if it ain't, you're a wuss, and the hideously phrased and ungrammatical "salary, job loss" ain't a lion or a bear.

Yes, but I don't encounter lions or bears in my living room.

Maybe, but I rarely let my bosses in to my living room, either.
They usually run straight up the stairs (which is why I'm glad I installed a fire escape for the bedroom).

I dared my bosses to pay me so much that I'm priced out of the market and can't get a job anywhere else. So far they have backed down from that challenge. They think I'm only about the money which couldn't be further from the truth. I'm all about the amount of money.

The world's most popular programming language, according to devops biz Datree.io at least, it not Java, JavaScript, nor Python. Rather, it's YAML, a recursive acronym for "YAML Ain't Markup Language." At this rate, someone might declare ASCII the most popular programming language
Or Unicode if you're one of those people that like ligatures.

It yaml what it yaml, and that's all what it yaml -- but it yamain't programming!
Look! up in the sky! Is it a super-programming language? Is it---
... Bugger! It was just config, flying out of control! Anyone got a Kleenex?

No, it's not the most popular programming language, it's the most popular encryption method. "Passwords are ASCII encrypted."

So the most common computer repair that I have to do will no longer involve soldering, but it will be more like fixing a photocopier paper-jam?

Surely with all the dev ops and stuff the argument would be that there are no bugs since its always continuous development, ya know like they have developers working night shift and day shift on "continuous development" so there would no need to have any bug status dashboard..besides it would expose to much ... like Microsoft when the apple way few years back...
