Eg when they tested good chess players on random board positions they were just as good as people that did not play chess.

Repair bill at Apple was 90% of the cost of a new pair.

Truly the worst built product I’ve bought from Apple.

Never again.

I didn’t understand the history at the time - but it stopped me going to hospital, I ended up being able to do a controlled hold (no discomfort) of around 1:30 min and a max hold of just shy of 5 mins.

So for me it had a big impact.

I stopped in my 20s and now I am no where near able to get those numbers.

The number of times I clicked “show less” and it has zero effect on the number of shorts.

When dictating in a search box, dictated text may be sent to the search provider in order to process the search. (https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/iphone/iph2c0651d2/ios)

quote - google ai mode:

"DuckDB offers robust capabilities for querying data stored partially on S3, particularly when dealing with Parquet files. This is achieved through several optimization techniques:

Predicate Pushdown: When you apply a WHERE clause to filter data, DuckDB can "push down" this filter directly into the Parquet file scan. If the Parquet file contains zonemaps (metadata about value ranges within columns), DuckDB can use this information to skip reading entire sections of the file that do not contain relevant data, significantly reducing the amount of data transferred from S3.

Projection Pushdown: When you select only specific columns in your SELECT statement, DuckDB automatically reads only those required columns from the Parquet file. This means you avoid downloading and processing unnecessary data, leading to faster queries and reduced S3 transfer costs.

HTTP Range Reads: DuckDB leverages HTTP range headers when interacting with S3 (or other object storage supporting range reads). This allows it to fetch only the necessary parts of the Parquet file, such as metadata or specific column chunks, rather than downloading the entire file."

Looks interesting.

Used by enterprises for compliance, reporting and answering questions like, who owns this ai model, whats the monitoring plans, where is it running, what approvals does it have, what policies are applicable (geographic etc).
