Am I old now?
  • Germany is a backwards nightmare coming from the UK. No self checkout with contactless payment. Instead you queue behind 5 people in Reve, each one counting out coins to pay exactly for whatever they've bought.

  • Google layoffs: Sundar Pichai-led company fires entire Python team for ‘cheaper labour’
  • Regardless of the actual software processing details, in the wider population of Android consumers I'm pretty sure it's Samsung that has the reputation for photography.

    Samsung's advertising focus is on advertising things that people understand and think they want, not AI assistants and cleaner versions of Android. Most of the reviews of the Pixel 8 criticise no telephoto lens while Samsung tends to have an excess being shown off.

    Like everything Google does, I'm not sure it is any good at understanding people as humans rather than people as aggregate statistical models and that shows in its consumer devices.

  • Tell me what it means
  • Not the person you asked, but it was very popular in the UK. You could get news, sport, programme times, recipes, reviews, games, holidays and all sorts. With no on demand TV it was often more interesting than what was currently being broadcast. It was also the basis for displaying subtitles over TV.

  • Schools in America apparently have their own army recruiter
  • That's really interesting. I'd never considered where Germany would find experienced commanders to support their role in NATO and be the front line with the Soviets. It's obvious in retrospect I suppose.

    It's very similar to people like Werner Von Braun that went to the US, were key to the space race, but also key to advancing the technology that went into military missiles etc.
