That graph is hilarious. Enormous error bars, totally arbitrary quantization of complexity, and it's title? "Task time for a human that an AI model completes with a 50 percent success rate". 50 percent success is useless, lmao.
On a more sober note, I'm very disappointed that IEEE is publishing this kind of trash.
Are there any electric tractors/combines on the market, let alone used ones? I mean industrial sized, not small yard work equipment.
EDIT: OK, yes, there are some small electrified tractors available now. Fendt has a line available to customers, John Deere has a prototype, etc... But they are the smallest size of industrial tractors, meant for work like greenhouses, feeding livestock, municipal work, etc...
Electrifying farm equipment has huge engineering hurdles. They need a massive amount of power, which would mean very large and incredibly expensive battery packs. Those batteries would take either a long time to charge, or high current charging stations.
During seeding or harvest the machines often run for 16+ hours a day, and are literally out in the middle of a field. Where is the super-fast charging station going to go? They can't easily travel all the machinery back to home base every night, and there's no way it makes economical sense for a farm operation to get chargers installed at every field.
These are not necessarily insurmountable problems. There are a number of similarities to trucking, for example, and that's an industry that's starting to see electrification now. But the logistical problems are much harder than trucking. The biggest reason that John Deere etc... aren't making electric tractors right now is that no one would buy one, because no one has any infrastructure in place for it.
Exactly, it's just regular old enshittification.
While I'm sure the obvious systemic issues contribute to not looking for alternatives, that does sound like largely an issue inherent to optical pulse oximeters. Engineers aren't miracle workers, they can't change physics to their liking.
I'm sure pulse oximeters now are more accurate than they were 20 years ago. The fact we're still using them is because no alternatives have been found which are as easy to use, reliable, and non-invasive as pulse oximeters, even with the known downsides.
... is $1.40 high in Ontario? That's barely higher than Alberta and Sask. It was ~ $1.60+ before January.
And you don't need to take anyone's second hand word for it. If you do a little looking, Israeli officials have said as much, in so many words, numerous times.
It's intentional, systematic genocide. There's no two ways about it.
Repository: a collection of computer code for a software program (or app if you insist).
Fork: a copy of a repository so you can edit it without affecting the original.
Pull request: a request to the owner of a repo to bring in some changes you made in a fork.
I think I even got the word count down.
What, you expect people to read?! Smh
Canadian here. A minority gov is one which has less than X seats (where X is 50% in Canada and I believe Australia too), and usually that requires a coalition. "Forming government" in a parliamentary system like these basically means "has a good chance of passing meaningful legislation." Since the leading party can't do so alone, they form an agreement with another party (or multiple) to help them reach that criteria.
It is entirely possible for the party with the most seats to also not form government, if they're far enough below 50% and can secure no agreement with another party to push them across the line. In these situations, another general election would soon follow.
Underrated comment, this should be at the top.
This. This would actually help. I like schadenfreude as much as the next guy, but if all you do is point and laugh then you're only serving to further isolate these people and leave them vulnerable to the next line of propaganda.
