Reply to comment by earthwormjim91 in Apple is convinced my dog is stalking me. A vital AirTag safety feature is incorrectly notifying me every day. by MayoFetish
I sometimes get the notifications from my fiancés AirPod pros, we think it’s kinda funny since it usually happens on date nights when we’ve been together all day. She’s also part of my family plan

Reply to comment by NeurodivergentPie in Apple reportedly made a big breakthrough on a secret non-invasive blood glucose monitor project that originally was part of a 'fake' startup by dakiki
The latest tech in continuous glucose monitors are microneedles that you can barely feel. This is likely what Apple has, and theyre able to advertise it as “noninvasive”

Obviously. But that article seemed good enough for a layman's grasp to me

Either that or our solar system will get blown up when there's a feedback loop they can't control.

Yeah and it's shit. Go to news.google.com.au and all you get is the Murdoch press and right wing aligned shit. Used to get a good range of smaller outlets.
They should stop hosting media outlets that support this view, showing a snippet and byline shouldn't be a copyright issue and be deemed fair use.
If media outlets don't want to have their content appear in search results they should update their robots.txt

I haven’t had it on a plane, bus or train come to think of it. Only ever in the car - Google seems to be able to easily tell if I am in a bus / train or car so perhaps apple can too and only raises the alert if you’re in a car - which makes sense.

Not disagreeing since I know nothing about this topic, but there is a link in the article goes to this article which contains a bit more info
> Apple is taking a different approach, using a chip technology known as silicon photonics and a measurement process called optical absorption spectroscopy. The system uses lasers to emit specific wavelengths of light into an area below the skin where there is interstitial fluid — substances that leak out of capillaries — that can be absorbed by glucose. The light is then reflected back to the sensor in a way that indicates the concentration of glucose. An algorithm then determines a person’s blood glucose level.
...
> The company believes the technology is viable but needs to be shrunk down to a more practical size.... Engineers are working to develop a prototype device about the size of an iPhone that can be strapped to a person’s bicep. That would be a significant reduction from an early version of the system that sat atop a table.

How does that work when people get on a bus or a plane? Does everyone get everyone else's alerts because they're all traveling together stalking each other now?

Except it's humans. So the next step will be accidentally creating a bridge between dimensions that could possibly destroy both realities and can only be fixed with a universe jumping McKay

Obviously, the Microsoft clan is biased.
But, they are also the biggest competitor.
So their opinion matters.

This sounds like one day it will be crazy and totally useful for an entire set of things we can barely imagine, but until then- it’s just the basic science of making it happen at all

The population of a small nation of white collar executives make their millions from aggressively monetizing children through mobile apps. It’s legitimate business apparently.

They did not. If it had energy in it to be pulled it was not "nothing" in the way anyone defines it. I'm long past sick of these stupid clickbait "quantum" articles.

Android was created in 2003. Google bought it up in 2005. It was initially supposed to be an OS for digital cameras, oddly enough

Reply to comment by Thorusss in Flooded with AI-created content, a sci-fi magazine suspends submissions by AmHoomon
I think their concern is less about being AI made and more of the fact they don't want their business to be treated like someone's automatic money-making machine as if they were a graphic card abused by a crypto miner, most AI enthusiasts are pretty much the same as a crypto miner.
We all know how that went for people that wanted a graphic card for real jobs or play games but couldn't because someone hoarded them all to mine crypto and ended up being thrown away all wasted and useless after the market crashed and the hoarder probably committed unalive after losing all their money.
The problem just moved to somewhere else.
