Haha, busted. Did you share?

Most diabetics are already cyborgs - they use a continuous glucose monitor like a dexcom which is linked to an automated insulin injection pump.

I did not say it’s impossible. I said they’d need to overcome our current understanding of Beer’s Law. And since the article mentioned it is using “optical absorption spectroscopy” this is a relevant assumption. Smart watches only have a basic set of LEDSs, a few photo detectors and possibly some ability to detect changes in electrical impedance….well that’s just not enough to overcome the calibration issue. A lot of people a lot smarter than I am have been working on this question for a long time, so, much like the issue with continuous noninvasive blood pressure, our current tools are not adequate. If they have solved it, great. I look forward to knowing more.

Could have saved a few hundred jobs as well getting rid of him.

the current method for the vast majority is to use a sensor like a dexcomm unit that provide continuous updates, typically for 10 days in a row...

​

most people utilize blood tests as a means of ensuring their unit is correct, not for monitoring anymore luckily.

> Either of us could leave at any time.

But not cleanly. The problem with this is in the domestic violence or stalking situation is that it becomes known to the other person that the AirTag has stopped sharing. (It doesn't matter if it happens through notification or the AirTag disappears from the other person's screen.)

Until the person stops sharing their AirTag the location is shared with the other person and so is something of a route to some point where the AirTag sharing is then turned off.

One way around this is to allow a scramble AirTag location, whereby the person can press a button and the AirTag location is reported as somewhere random and different.

>The only real alternative is to not have the technology exist at all. That’s not going to happen.

I just watched a company attempt to create a fictional $1 million contractural fine for misuse of their product. They may not be able to make this one work out.

> The issue, for diabetics anyway, is they need continuous monitoring

Given the current method of monitoring is to stab yourself and test the blood, it clearly doesn't need to be continuous. Obviously, the more often you take readings, the better, but if there are battery issues, then Apple will find a balance that works.

That said... Lots of people use the Apple Watch for sleep tracking which means that, yeah, they have to charge their watch when they're in the shower and the like. It's a deal, sure, but it's not a big deal.

Dog has a smug ass look on its mug… probably been stalking you longer than you realized

Still being watched from the tube. 0011000100. Good luck.

Chinese spyware straight into your vehicle

Thanks for the Simpsons reference here’s an award

I. Drink. Your. Milkshake.

Get a real GPS. Depending on AirTags in parks and open spaces is risky.

The Apple 🍎®️ solution - buy multiple watches

I think you mean the monopoly model not the capitalism model...capitalism would have a competitive market and low margins..monopoly high margins and little competition or market choices.

You mean TL;DR: Science is a liar sometimes.

Does anyone know if the speed of information transfer between entangled particles is limited to the speed of light?

Or is it that there’s a wormhole of sorts that connects the two? I.e. instantaneous

Easy answer, it’s all bullshit, and they pay millions to the cheapest whores in the country, congressmen, to keep it a gray area

I think the potential is more there to make smartwatches a real thing. It's a decent sized market now but still maybe only like 5% the size of the smartphone market.

Do you want the poors to live long lives or something? The longer they live the more chances of revolution, actually, we shalt increase insurance premiums 10% and decrease teacher salaries 5%, just so they don’t get any crazy ideas

I believe that was disabled for “safety”.

The issue, for diabetics anyway, is they need continuous monitoring (more or less), to whoever jumps in that space needs to figure out the battery problem. having your watch need to sit on a charger for 30 - 45 minutes a day will make it much less useful
