The inference part of these products is comparability cheap. The training has been the expensive part generally which is what drives the cost.

Microsoft missed the mobile boat by a long shot.

Windows is ever shrinking as people don't buy computers like they used to since phones can do what they need.

This means that for Microsoft growing Windows user base is a non starter. They are well into the extract portion of the product lifecycle. The os now only exists to support the products that still make money are extract what can be extracted from a shrinking user base.

I mean the marketing guys are doing their job which is to convince you that you are getting a video feed for your to do cool things with. The actual reason is free camera wearing automatons are cheaper than ones you have to pay for.

Yeah, if you break your back to get it sorted they just assume they allocated enough resources and will do it again.

It's super hard to let things fail sometimes but in some organizations it's the only actual signal they can respond to.

Every child care center and baby sitter near me eventually had one or two of these.

I'm not sure I ever encountered one with the actual figures though. You were lucky if the canon ball was still with it.

It hurts to read "The original song dates back to the 20th century" in the Wikipedia article.

I guarantee you they have not made that connection at all.

I just meant the " promise to do everything by the book and don't rock the boat while you slow walk everything in your desired direction"

I think it's from a time when people(both men and women, but mostly women) married for social and economic reasons. Those reasons kept people in relationships who had long since checked out.

Now it resonates with fewer people because women can leave bad relationships more easily.

That's also why I assume the manisphere is a thing because there are a lot of sour people who are upset they are not owed a person just for existing.

Eh the US had cancer long before Obama. Nixon, Reagan, Gingrich, W (or Chaney if you like) were all slow walking things to where the US is now.

It's a hard life but I'm working through it with my therapist.
