The motivation may be as financial as it is scientific.
The motivation is financial ONLY.
Noone in their right mind would do this without a serious plan to deal with space debris, but they sorely need investors to keep investing, so any marketing BS is fair game to them.
Evey time I see one of those, I block the entire channel, after a while youtube stopped filling my feed with that crap.
They still appear sometimes, but much less than before, and I still go on systematically blocking every channel that has them.
I’m against pet feeders in general.
Cats regulate themselves much better than us, they don’t need us “measuring” food, just check they have dry food available 24/7 and manually give wet food. If you can’t dedicate a few minutes every day to check for their needs, you may need to reconsider keeping them.
Unless they have health issues, in that case a pet feeder could be handy, but it’s hard to believe they are “millions”.
Dogs don’t need to eat as often as cats, if you “need” to feed them remotely, it means you’re leaving them alone for very long hours, that’s not good for a dog.
You can safely leave a cat alone all day if you’re out working, not a dog.
Furthermore, feeding your pet yourself contributes to bonding, using a machine for that may be convenient for you but it’s definitely not for the good of the pets.
Test environments are for rookies, work directly on Prod like a real champ!!
For me personally, AI slops are destroying everything.
I don’t want to be in places where every time I read or see something I have to wonder if I’m interacting with another human or a robot, it’s awful.
And it has become also more difficult to find interesting content when at every turn you find AI crap overtaking everything else, it’s tiring.
Same, but I’m not sure what Discord is doing will help much, because it only affects server that are classified as “age restricted” (mature content), if they’re not, no verification will be required, for now at least.
