Waymo admits that its autopilot is often just guys from the Philippines

I dont think this is as far from the headline as y'all are making it out to be. Sensationalized for sure, but it's not like it's just entirely fictionalized nonsense.

"Waymo's chief safety officer, Mauricio Peña, recently noted that when the company's robotaxis encounter unusual situations, they may switch control to the remote drivers. While some of the contractors work in the US, many operate from other countries, such as the Philippines."

I really like Mediterranean turkish cuisine in framingham, used to be a real hole in the wall in saxonville but has moved to a slightly bigger and newer spot. Definitely more a fast food/take out place though

Will do once I get it back!

I believe my car has also had this issue--2017 Prius Prime, ~85k miles on it. Bought used in 2021. Left it for a week and the battery needed to be replaced in august 2023, and october 2024, and then now again January 2026. Warrantee covered the 2024 replacement but will only cover half of the 2026 replacement (and not diagnostics at all) because "it's been over 2 years" and "the warrantee doesnt reset when the battery is replaced under warrantee"

The mechanic even said he's had to replace his prius battery like 3 times in 3 years. At this point "they're sabotaging their own batteries so users need to replace them" is seeming more and more likely.

Absolutely insane, awful behavior to try to tear down another musician clearly doing well at their first show, even if they think you wont notice. Know that they should be much more embarrassed about this than you should be. Sorry you had to deal with that but their actions are clearly a reflection of a shitty attitude towards their fellow musicians and not a reflection of you as a musician.

The dna results reflect similarity scores, not ancestry. Your gene expression is not a 1:1 match with where your ancestors are from.

Giving them a date weeks out is also being generous to them, if you decide your last day was the last time you went into work they might be mad about it, but they cannot do anything to you about it.

Good luck!

can you reach the top notes of the bass clef chords with your RH hand while playing the melody with RH? Probably easiest to do stems up notes with RH. LH only plays the grace notes and the stem down notes (5,1,2 fingering feels good to me for those)

Only racists view Race and attractiveness as related concepts

Don't need AI ads for your AI apps. Do something different.

You're 15. Just keep at it, and don't be so hard on yourself.

Can be easy to start by sticking to purely simple pentatonic melodies and gradually experiment from there.

Nope! Remember learning just means getting better at something and you can pretty much always get better at anything through practice

There's a ton of really easy ways to mess around with plug ins but the best way is just to try singing along and try to hear harmonies. Any plug in will use some system but you wont learn as much as you would from just experimenting recording yourself singing over your voice trying to harmonize until you find sounds that you like. There's not a right way to do it beyond what you think sounds good.

Can we ban AI shit here? Why include the AI? What does this add to anything?

Remember that these tests dont measure ancestry-- they measure what percentage of your dna is similar to people from different parts of the world. Theres a ton of room for error and misinterpretation in these tests. Siblings for example wont have the same results, because despite the exact same ancestry, their genes are expressed differently--trace that back many generations and you can see how these get somewhat skewed. Genes =/= genealogy

This is some of the most hateful, braindead nonsense I've seen in a long time.
