The Big Catch

A local priest had just woken up, and was pretty taken in at just how beautiful of a Sunday morning it was. He felt it was a great time to go fishing. So, he called the church and told them he was sick and wouldn't be able to come in. He then packed up his fishing gear and headed for the lake.

Meanwhile, up above, God saw what he had done. Needless to say, he wasn't very happy, and didn't think the priest should get away with this. He called over one of the angels to watch his retaliation.

Within seconds of casting his line, the priest got a bite. After struggling for a few minutes, he managed to reel it in. It was the biggest fish he had ever seen, let alone caught.

The angel was rather confused.

"Wait, I thought you were going to punish him. How can this possibly be bad?"

"Oh, it is," replied God, "Who is he going to tell?"

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.

      This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
