I wonder if Eric Berger or Stephen Clark could do an interview with an underwriter from one of the major launch insurance providers like AXA XL or Beazley on what goes into pricing a policy and the coverage exclusions and limitations. I think many of the Ars readers would find this interesting.

I didn't think it was possible for me to dislike a human being more than Ajit Pai, but Mr. Carr is on track to do so...

Donated! Thanks for sharing the link

Eric thanks as always for another fantastic article. Like others this is why I subscribe to Ars!

I just don't understand why Google would allow it's "product" to get worse. If Assistant can reliably do a task, why doesn't Gemini leverage the Assistant code to accurately perform the task. As others have said doing a task wrong is worse than not doing it at all.

This is why I not only love Arstechnica, but also the comments section. I learn some of the most interesting things from my fellow Arsians.

As a fellow Nevadan, genuinely thanks @moongoddess , I have a few more questions. I have a bird feeder in my back yard, I wear gardening gloves when I refill it on a weekly basis and wash my hands thoroughly after doing so. Is this enough, or is there additional reason to not have a feeder up...

I believe pseudoephedrine has always been available, it was just moved behind the pharmacy counter. I've never had a problem getting some.

Please everyone, go and vote, remind your friends and family to register and vote. We have ample evidence of what a disaster a second Trump term would be for this country.

I'll admit, I (previously) thought Boars Head was one of the better brands out there. It makes me wonder, if this was the condition of their factory, what the heck does it look like at the other mystery meat purveyors? :eek:

Living in Las Vegas I had the opportunity to ride in the "Tesla's in Tunnels" a few times and it is as stupid as it sounds. I don't see any way for this system to scale. Passenger loading and unloading takes forever (compared to true mass transit), and and god forbid you have a group larger...

Given its current abilities, I think Google is smoking crack if they think people will pay $240 annually

For some reason I think AT&T and Verizon may be crying wolf to try to get the T-Mobile / SpaceX product offering delayed since it'll be some time before they can truly offer something competing. Much like how the Airlines cried wolf about the 5G deployment interfering with their crusty...

I too have an E46 BMW and got both airbags replaced. I believe I got the drivers side done in 2016 and (due to parts availability) got the passengers done in 2017. Both times were quite painless. Drop the car off in the morning, pick it up that afternoon.

NPR did a very interesting podcast on the bankruptcy debt buyers who have been purchasing individual's FTX unsecured debt for pennies on the dollar, and how these individuals and organizations may get a huge pay day from this outcome...

Anker has a Powerwall competitor: https://www.anker.com/anker-solix/x1-energy-storage-system-hes?

I'm wondering how CrowdStrike as a company fares from this issue? Stock is currently down 10%

Agreed, my take (working in the InfoSec industry) is that these sorts of ransom payments needs to made illegal at the national level. We have to cut off the funding of these groups. Currently each successful attack only makes them stronger and emboldens them to ask for even more money next...

From this article and the bear worm one, I think I may be avoiding steak for a while. I understand while Dept of Agr hasn't found H5N1 in beef, I like my steaks less than medium, and I know this department seems to operate with big beef's best interests in mind (instead of consumers best...

Do you remember their original Netflix competitor? Streampix... Surely it wasn't chosen purely to just sound similar ::face palm:: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/about-xfinity-streampix
