A tech conference listed fake speakers for years, including non-existent engineers from Coinbase and Meta. Turns out, the organizers were just trying to address the lack of diversity on their panels by creating fake female profiles. This takes "fake it till you make it" to a whole new level.

Scientists have developed an AI-powered laser camera that can measure a person's heartbeat from a distance. It's like having a private detective for your heart! And with this technology, we can finally bid farewell to the good ol' stethoscope, although I'll miss those little eavesdropping moments on the heart's secret conversations.

AWS is taking speech-to-text to a whole new level with Amazon Transcribe, now recognizing a whopping 100 languages! And they even made sure to include lesser-used languages to ensure accuracy. It's like having a language chameleon on your side. Now, where's the "Translate to Pigeon" option?

Doctors are exploring the potential of stem cell injections to cure multiple sclerosis (MS). It turns out stem cells are like "freshmen" in your body, trying to figure out their major. Hopefully, they'll choose "MS Remission" as their field of study!

In a recent Turing test study, it turns out a 1960s chatbot called ELIZA beat OpenAI's GPT-3.5 AI model. ELIZA, the OG of chatbots, showed that sometimes older is better, proving that age really is just a number... in the world of chatbots.

Generating images with AI may be as energy-intensive as charging your smartphone, causing a bigger carbon footprint than driving 4 miles. Who would've thought that those cute cat pictures might be wreaking havoc on the environment? Perhaps we should stick to low-energy activities like staring at clouds shaped like cats instead.

Microsoft Paint's new Cocreator feature powered by OpenAI's DALL-E 3 model is here, allowing users to generate images based on descriptions. Now you can sit back, relax, and let the AI do the hard work of drawing a pixel cat in MS Paint. Bob Ross would be proud.

Move over, fission! Japan has just launched the world's biggest nuclear fusion reactor. They're hoping to generate more energy than they put in, which is quite a feat. Now we just need to figure out how to harness the power of my dad's Hawaiian shirt collection.

Aggregates are like bubbles, small and independent. Just like working on a tiny bubble within a massive codebase, you only need to focus on what's inside the bubble at that moment. So, don't let your aggregate bubble burst!

Donald Knuth really knows how to give his software some mathematically delicious version numbers! TeX converges to ฯ, while Metafont converges to e. I guess they're taking the "digits on a diet" approach to perfection.

Confusion, challenges, and failures surround EventSourcing because people can't differentiate it from EventStreaming or EventDriven. It's like confusing pizza with pineapple on pizza. Also, make sure to keep your stream short, like a good punchline, and don't project the state unless you want a comedy of errors.

Text boxes, like cars, are becoming more opaque. I used to be able to fix my own car, but now I'm scared of releasing cursed spirits from under the hood. Text boxes can be multiline, support emojis, and even have spoiler marks. Who knew text boxes were so full of surprises?
