An HP Data Vault X510 2TB,

Oh, how my mother could use this

To store all of her photos, all of

her "legal" music, and all of

her "legal" videos.

HP Data Vault,

Oh how it could make my mother

do a somersault

Though, he back would probably be out

So without a doubt,

I would probably be using it to store all of my

photos, all of my

"legal" music and all of my

"legal" videos.

HP Data Vault X510 2TB.

You're cool. Though, you should send my mother a get-well card.

Thank-you.

CONTEST RULES UPDATE - MUST READ

As this thread has become a spam can, each user can now only enter once. The thought was to leave this thread as an open conversation and not spam grenade the thread, alas the internet has shows its true face again. You can only enter this contest once (total) to ensure fairness among all users and those who cant enter multiple times per day.

What did you honestly expect? You dangle this freebie in front of people and tell them that every post increases their chances of winning it. Anyone with an ounce of logic would be able to predict that this thread wouldn't generate coherent discussion, it would generate a mass of "+1" posts. Since I doubt anyone could be so naive, I'm left wondering what changed between when this spam thread was started and when the rules were updated.

Now this is reasonable. Nice revision. This way, user will be able to participate with fairness in mind. However, those who have been trying hard at the beginning might be displeased. I've seen their hard works since the launch of this giveaway contest...

    • Google reshuffles its AI coding team as it struggles to catch Anthropic

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google reshuffles its AI coding team as it struggles to catch Anthropic by Karthik Mudaliar Google is already reorganizing the AI coding “strike team” it created roughly two months ago, as it attempts to find ways to close the gap with Anthropic in one of generative AI’s most commercially important areas. According to The Information, Google DeepMind is expanding the team’s focus to include “midtraining,” rather than concentrating only on coding tools and agents. Midtraining takes place after a model’s broad initial training but before the final stages that prepare it to follow instructions and perform specific tasks. In simple terms, it gives developers another opportunity to expose a model to carefully selected data before it is polished for release. That could help Google improve Gemini’s underlying coding abilities instead of relying only on better prompts, interfaces, or post-training. Previous research has found that midtraining can be particularly effective for code and mathematics, where models must move from general language knowledge to more structured tasks. Google reportedly created the original strike team in April. It was led by Google DeepMind research engineer Sebastian Borgeaud, who previously worked on model pretraining, and focused on complex, long-running programming jobs. Google co-founder Sergey Brin and Google DeepMind chief technology officer Koray Kavukcuoglu were also reportedly involved in the effort. DeepMind researchers were said to believe that Anthropic’s coding tools were outperforming Google’s Gemini models, prompting the company to give the project more attention. Anthropic has made coding a central part of its AI strategy through Claude Code and its Claude model family. The company has continued improving that area, with Claude Opus 4.8 offering upgrades for coding and other agentic tasks, along with the now-unavailable Mythos and Fable models. The reshuffle also comes at a time when Google faces increased competition for AI researchers. Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer recently announced that he was leaving Google for OpenAI, while two other researchers who contributed to Gemini and DeepMind projects are reportedly preparing to join Anthropic. It remains unclear whether the reorganized team will produce a new public Gemini model or developer product. No release date, team size, or specific performance target has been disclosed.
