The pro version comes with "Professional-grade creative suite", but they don't tell you what you're actually getting. It's just opaque corporate-speak one-liners "Make real progress toward your goals".

Except on figure 1 they're all at 0, making it look like the authors didn't know how to use the models or deliberately made them do nothing.

I think it just looks that way because they used a linear x axis for comedic effect.

Google is still looking for investors?

Of course, Alphabet exists to give returns to their shareholders.

Middle Aged Man Language - too many braces.

That was released as a joke. Twenty years later and no longer released as a joke, Apple is showing they are still in touch with the sensibilities of the modern Apple customer.

It's difficult not to be somewhat impressed by Apples ability to build a luxury brand with such loyal customers.

My technical brain say "who would want that" but my business brain says "maybe I should buy more AAPL"

Reality has progressed, you can't distinguish it from satire any more.

"up to 1 TB capacity... starting launch price is $15.99"

I have adblock, how did this SanDisk commercial make it through?

Note that the $15.99 is for the 64 GB version. The 1 TB version sells for above $100.

It follows the classic format of "Most expensive configuration [price ommited], Lowest price bracket [configuration ommited]"

Considering 1TB sandisk ssds (which have notoriously had high failure rates) were around 100 for 1TB for a while is pretty impressive they got it into that form factor. I wouldn't trust them for anything important though.

Goes well with their affiliate links. And it's actually discounted to $14.99 at sandisk https://shop.sandisk.com/products/usb-flash-drives/sandisk-e...

Correctness with respect to the benchmark. A slow reference renderer could produce the target image, and renderers need to achieve either exact or close reproduction to the reference. Otherwise, you could just make substantial approximations and claim a performance victory.

There has to be a better way to view this than the tangled web of overlapping lines, like that at lower left of the "services" rectangle on the right, even with the selection highlighting. Perhaps there is not, and it is fertile ground for developing a new visualization.

Click any node, and everything not related to that node fades.

The tangled mess kind of picture is still sometimes useful: you can roughly see bunches grouped, and notice things that are all over the place.

I can't view the site on my mobile without accepting cookies.

Specifically Google Analytics cookies, but I found you can uncheck the box.

It's still pretty confusing: Uunchecking the box doesn't seem to do much (is it actually unchecked when you click it? There's still a checkmark); you still have to click Accept to see the text; what are you accepting?

In any case, pre-checked boxes are not valid consent under GDPR (“Planet49”).

No cookie notice at all for me using Firefox on Android with the "I Still Don't Care About Cookies" extension.

Your customers don't have any handwritten text?
