    I had to check the date on this thread cause "granular" was in frequent use at IBM almost 20 years ago (wife worked there and loved to mock that one)...

    That one's funny. My buddy says he's "working from car" all the time.

    Not sure how detailed you want to go, but, it’s teaching non-humans do things in a human-like manner. Things like auto-pilot, adaptive cruise control or lane keep assist in cars, those online ads that you see that are triggered by something you viewed or searched for recently online and the WAZE app are just a few examples.
     
  4. Nothing to do with that, I just know how to manage my time.

    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    I once had a coworker go on about how he was marketing product x. "I'm maximizing my time by utilizing direct to design via guerilla marketing." About the third time he spit out this gibberish I had to call him on it.

    "Do you even know what guerilla marketing is or is it something you read or heard in regards movie and music promotion!?!?"

    Never heard him mutter it again.

    Definitely not sales guy. Everything on that sign is spelled correctly.
    I expect it’s a tech nerd tricked into this by sales guy with offer of boobies or some star trek memorabilia.

    Important and efficient...you must be one of those "triple threats" from a prominent University?

    :D
     
  13. No, just not one of those “I work 100 hours a week” people just to say they work 100 hours a week :) I need to work “triple threat” into a work conversation though, that’s a good one.

    Have you had a chance to explore the performance envelope of the new halo product in a closed course environment?

    It’s what tech companies call every new algorithm or technique. It’s also what they call it when they’re actually using micro task systems using humans but want people to think they have a new fancy algorithm or technique. I just hope that I can buy myself a 12 inch dick and a gaggle of Russian hookers before they’re actually right and the AI kills us all.
