What features do dishwashers have?

Literally every one I’ve used has had racks, two to three spiny water sprayers, a water intake, and a detergent basket.

I’m not disagreeing with the overall sentiment, the “modes” of a dishwasher are dumb as shit. No I don’t want reduced water flow, reduced temperatures, and a worse outcome requiring manual intervention.

But what is there to break? Suck water in, pump it out, spray it at dishes.

maybe there’s the occasional weird model, like Samsungs wall sprayer. But you can’t buy them any more.

This is cool.

After watching Alex Steeles videos on anodizing Ti, I had an idea of using stencil style masks to make art.

A pen plotter seems much smarter.

This is the sort of thing machine learning algorithms are pretty good at at.

Coupled with however many millions of interactions a day, you would have no problem correlating changes to your algorithm against increases in revenue.

But. It’s often not that impressive. Humans are equally good at noticing patterns.

All it takes is for one person at FB to see their wife or daughter delete a post, ask them “why did you delete that post” and take away from the response of “It made me look fat” to go “there’s a new targeted ad that’ll get me a bonus”.

In a similar vein, 80% of your banks anti-fraud systems isn’t deep learning models that detect fraudulent behaviour. Instead it’s “if the user is based in Russia, add 80 points, and if the account is at a branch in 10km of Heinersdorf Berlin, add another 50…. We’re pretty sure a Russian scammer goes on holiday every 6 months and opens a bunch of accounts there, we just don’t know which ones”.

Piracy numbers are used as a metric to benchmark a shows popularity.

Plus, if you use any p2p platform to get it, you’re distributing the work too.

Why a second? Your first couldn’t have been any more than 5 years old.

In the UK, if a the registered owner is unable to name the driver, or unable to provide a satisfactory reason why they can’t, it’s a £1000 (~NZ$2000) fine.

I’m pretty sure some people might use company owned vehicles to get out of demerits, but it’s expensive.

More PE teachers.

We’ll have an entire industry of PE teachers, rostered nationally to ensure PE is taught, and genitala are inspected.

$5 says this is $30 mil doesn’t cover data collection, because they already have the data.

It’s $30mil to expose the data they already have, in a manner suitable for lower level agency workers.

Becomes the death jingle when you follow through.

EVs are getting their own lines of tyres (supposedly) designed to handle the weight, torque and address range concerns.

I’ve got the ability to manipulate time and space.

It’s called a bus, and patience.
