Absolutely. They look cool but the curved screen is pretty pointless in terms of functionality

It's the year 2025. Almost everything you use today is a smart-device. You need to charge your phone, laptop, watch, glasses, wallet, keychains and your shoes before your leave to work everyday.

What's gonna happen in the next 25 years?

The desire for practicality will triumph, OR we'll live to see the omnipresence of power sources.

Probably both. USB hubs in airport terminals is only the beginning.

That being said, most "smart" devices right now are way ahead of their time, and will either be combined or simplified. In 10-20 years, AR devices will replace smartphones and smartwatches. You'll have a brick in your pocket, probably, to do all the heavy computational lifting and graphics processing, but people will start adopting AR tech regardless en masse within a decade or two.

Smart wallets/keychains/stuff like that won't see much saturation if they need a regular charge. I can see trackers being implemented, and small features being snuck into devices, but I don't think anything that has a risk of running out of power will be trustworthy enough to keep someone's wallet/keys safe. All that being said, if wireless charging tech becomes universal, or at least gets big, I can see people just dumping the contents of their pockets onto a large wireless charging mat before they go to bed each night.

What the fuck would we put in shoes? I can see Nike stuffing Fitbit tech into a couple sneakers a few years from now, but if that catches on, it certainly won't survive long with a USB-C port on the side.

Anyone have one of these? It seems to have mostly good reviews and is the cheapest 27 inch IPS 1440p monitor I can find.

If you have one, would you recommend getting one?

Do you think $248 is a reasonable price for one? The Acer G257HU is about $30 more atm, but it seems like it gets down to the $250 range pretty often. It's only 25 inches though and has slightly worse reviews.

You use 10 cereal boxes per month.

Post offers Unlimited Cereal, for the low price of 3$ per day.

General Mills offers a flat rate of 5$ per box.
Gives you a free dishwasher to replace your current one, which after the first year costs only 2$ per dish washed.

Kellogg's offers a subscription for 8 cereal boxes a month at 35$
Every box past 8 costs 12$
To break your contract with Kellogg's costs a 250$ fee. You must mail back the bowls you are renting.

Kellogg's wants to weaken the power Food and Drug Administration in return for greater availability of their cereal.

>>55496377
Kellogg's wants to merger with Mills for greater service; it's fine because they don't compete anyways.
>>
>>55496377
Unlimited Cereal is testing out a cap on the amount of cereal you can buy. If you exceed 2 boxes a month you'll need to pay an additional 10 dollars per box to help prevent scarcity. It's only fair.

You mean, the exterior design which is entirely the manufacturer's decision "makes" it impossible.

Can an algorithm be racist?

Is it okay if your neural network gives blacks lower credit ratings?

Last time i checked, computer didn't really care about your skin color, but i don't know maybe some of those >>pol fags are working at intel.

>>55496312

Yes, of course. Algorithms, like laws, can be written with either explicit or implicit racial bias, or both, or neither. Explicit racism is a pretty straightforward question, but implicit can be a bit more difficult.

For instance, one would expect black people in the United States *as a group* to have lower credit scores *on average* from a neutral rating algorithm, since they also tend *as a group* to have lower incomes and fewer assets; the algorithm is only implicitly biased if a given black person tends to get a lower score than a white person with similar financial data. The algorithm need not have any indication of knowing what "white" and "black" even are as races for this to be the case; it is sufficient for it to learn to associate low credit scores with other markers of racial or socioeconomic background (many of which are illegal to consider for credit purposes under the laws governing, e.g., equal opportunity housing), such as street address, ethnic consumption patterns like frequenting ethnicity-specific grocery stores or restaurants (think Ranch 99 or Roscoe's), or naming conventions like giving a "Tyrone Kwame" a worse score than the same application from "Jeffrey Smith". A neural algorithm would also likely conclude, by similar means, that otherwise identical applicants should get lower credit ratings if they visit 4chan or do not prefer Apple products.

In fact, it is precisely because of the fact that neural algorithms cannot differentiate such correlates of socioeconomic status from true indicators of per se creditworthiness that they are prone to this type of behavior, and need to be monitored for developing biases of this type when used in situations like finance, where anti-discrimination laws may apply to its findings. Like humans, who learn similarly, they are prone to overgeneralization and stereotyping, but unlike humans, they are unable to grasp metacognitively on their own when they are doing so.

Given its jumped an entire performance tier under DX11 (and in some Dx12 games, two performance tiers) I doubt it qualifies as a meme.
