Op de terugblikkende persconferentie blikte een zichtbaar meelevende Giovanni van Bronckhorst terug op de wedstrijd van Feyenoord, maar natuurlijk vooral op het incident in de twaalfde minuut. De trainer bood zijn excuses aan namens de club. "Het kan echt niet dat er mensen gewond raken."

De eredivisiewedstrijd tussen Cambuur en Feyenoord is zondagmiddag na twaalf minuten stilgelegd. In het vak met Feyenoordsupporters werd veel vuurwerk afgestoken. Vijf Cambuursupporters in een vak ernaast liepen brandwonden, gehoorschade en oogletsel op. Na een halfuur werd de wedstrijd hervat. "Het is waanzinnig dat supporters geraakt worden." Supportersvereniging De Feyenoorder heeft geen goed woord over voor de actie.

De werkzaamheden aan de Algerabrug zijn halverwege. De beweegbare klep is uit de brug gehesen en volgende week wordt het nieuwe rijdek teruggeplaatst. Hoe ervaren de reizigers de omleidingen tot nu toe? “Het valt nog mee, maar we houden ons hart vast voor komende weken.”

Kimi Antonelli ended an eventful Dutch Grand Prix in second place, bringing a close to a weekend in which the Mercedes driver admitted to lacking confidence in the car.

George Russell has shared his thoughts after he opted to let Kimi Antonelli pass on the final laps of the Dutch Grand Prix.

• Briton says team too slow to pit Charles Leclerc

• ‘It’s something that we need to discuss offline’

Lewis Hamilton has told his Ferrari team that they must up their game if he is to remain in the Formula One world championship fight after the British driver was angry with strategy calls at the Dutch Grand Prix, comparing them unfavourably with the decisive way his former team ­Mercedes had acted.

The race was won by McLaren’s Lando Norris from Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli and George Russell. Hamilton was fourth but believed he might have had a shot of a podium had Ferrari moved Charles Leclerc aside sooner when Hamilton, on a different tyre strategy, was quicker than his teammate.

Underbelly, Cowgate, Edinburgh
Ashley Blair and Drew Reilly send up gen Z anomie with hardcore ditties about awkward dinners, megachurches and centaur boyfriends

‘How to feel whole in an empty world?” There are many possible answers to that question, and Megasquirt’s late-night comedy rave workshops a good few of them. But there’s probably no better way than putting on a banging show and performing it to an adoring audience of your peers – and that’s what Brooklyn imports Ashley Blair and Drew Reilly do in Fully Loaded, turning the Underbelly at some ungodly hour into a pulsating queer(ish) celebration-cum-sendup of gen Z anomie. “Everything is empty / Life is a hole / You gotta fill it up,” they sing, looking like refugees from Warhol’s Factory but delivering comedy that couldn’t be more now.

The show starts as if we’re being seconded to a generational revolution, but it’s soon clear that this pair, both Second City alumni, are threats to nothing but your funny bone. Their premise is that life is void of meaning. We flash back to meet them as alienated schoolkids and one terrific sketch, a silly symphony of clinking cutlery and ASMR tuts and sighs, imagines two parents at dinner, struggling to repress their mutual loathing. If this is our hosts’ generational inheritance, why not look for a better way of being? Like a romance with an inverted Centaur Boyfriend, the title of one daft ditty, or like forming a megachurch to start replenishing the spiritual chasm.

"There is still no sign of economy-wide job destruction," says economist Erik Brynjolfsson. Working with researchers at the Stanford Digital Economy Lab, Brynjolfsson has determined an AI "job apocalypse" is unlikely, reports the Washington Post, "even though it will likely impact entry-level jobs."

And Brynjolfsson "predicts that demand for experienced workers such as senior coders will still be high even if AI takes on more routine knowledge and coding work in the future."

Earlier this month, Brynjolfsson and his colleagues at the Stanford Digital Economy Lab updated their widely publicized report, "Canaries in the Coal Mine? Six Facts about the Recent Employment Effects of Artificial Intelligence," to reflect that they do not see widespread, economy-wide job displacement associated with AI...

Brynjolfsson: What has moved on the upside is productivity. Nonfarm business productivity growth is running over 2 percent, the best sustained stretch since the late-1990s boom... The gains show up years after the investment, and they're starting to show up... By 2030, we will have enormously more capable AI, meaningfully faster productivity growth and an unemployment rate that looks unremarkable — somewhere in its historical range. That surprises people, but it's what the mechanism implies... [T]he technology is becoming much more powerful, and it's going to be even more powerful.

Secondly, there are huge implications for business and the economy, including some increases in living standards, but also, potentially, job disruption. And then, thirdly, we must act now to address this gap. We can't just sit back and wait for the tsunami to hit us. And one of the things we can do is put in place institutions, policies and research to make the technology more complementary — using AI to complement people so it creates more jobs. A common misconception among business managers is AI, in order to be effective, has to reduce jobs. That's just not true. You can use AI to increase employment and productivity at the same time. It's kind of a win-win...
Right now, tax policy is very skewed toward favoring capital versus labor — and, as a consequence, a lot of entrepreneurs and managers, they're basically being guided by the federal government to replace workers with machines. And I don't think that's necessarily what we'd like to have happen. From an economist's perspective, what you want to be doing is not mimicking and replacing things. You want to be extending and complementing — have humans do new things they never could have done before.

He acknowledges "real, persistent and widening" effects on entry-level jobs, with a labor market "closing the on-ramp for people starting their careers... If companies don't hire people at the base of the pyramid, then they're not going to have those people later when they need them."

One he points out that one company is instead using AI to speed up its training of young employees.

U zit op dit moment natuurlijk allemaal met de ene hand in de Cheetos en de andere in de broek te genieten van United Autofellatio bij Zomergasten - veel plezier! Toch nog even terug naar eerder vandaag: het was snel afgelopen met Maximiliaan Egbert Alfons Verstappen (geen idee, nog uitzoeken) op Zandvoort. Maar dat kachelen in zo'n bak doen we 'm (waarschijnlijk) ook niet na. We hebben weleens gekart op een hobbelig plakkaat in Bulgarije (iedereen de hielen laten zien) en voorafgaand aan komende kerstborrel gaan we een keertje rammen bij Coronel, al is het maar omdat de broers ons wel / niet / wel volgen op Twitter. Het was van Max vooral een heel mooie crash, waar we er nog een paar van kennen. Een paar tikkies, een paar gruwelijke, een paar afgrijselijke en een paar hatelijke, zoals die keer dat de vreselijke Lewis Hamilton zijn tegenstander met gestrekt been probeerde te vermoorden, en de lelijke Britten hun sproetige handen jubelend de lucht in staken om al dat leed te vieren. Misschien hebt u tijdens rijles ook wel een keer het gas verwisseld met de rem, of misschien bent u wel een keer onder de vangrail door gevlogen, of misschien werd u het slachtoffer van een wegpiraat, of misschien doet u wel helemaal niet aan crashen en is dit topic niet voor u. Hoe dan ook: crashen in het StamCafé, rechts heeft voorrang, paar highlights na de break. En mocht u dan tóch iets anders willen: nu op NPO2, ook een auto-ongeluk!

Parked Waymos actively record 360-degree video and audio even without passengers aboard. Waymo discloses no fixed data retention schedule, storing footage for a vague "reasonable" timeframe.

Armed with 29 external cameras, LiDAR, radar, and microphones, each robotaxi stays powered up between rides so it can respond to emergencies and reposition when needed. What Waymo won't say: how long that footage is stored, whether a residential street gets treated differently than a public plaza, and what "reasonably appropriate amount of time" actually means in practice. That phrase is doing enormous work for a very small amount of transparency. [...]

Where Ring doorbells marked the first wave of consumer-grade street surveillance, autonomous fleets are the next layer -- and they connect. Waymo holds a research agreement with Nexar, the dash-cam network embedded in hundreds of thousands of Uber and Lyft vehicles. Flock Safety, the license plate reader company, previously explored accessing that same Nexar footage for its law-enforcement clients. That deal collapsed. The architecture still exists. Think of it less like a coordinated surveillance state and more like a surveillance potluck -- everyone brought a dish, nobody planned the menu, and you weren't invited.

Previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously.

Na een aardverschuiving stortte zondagochtend vroeg een grote vuilnisbelt in Conakry in, de hoofdstad van Guinee. Omliggende huizen werden bedolven onder het afval. De vuilstort zou vanaf deze maand na jaren politieke discussie ontmanteld worden.
