Apple is very heavily marketing the iPhone 11 Pro as water resistant, but the fine print says, "Liquid damage not covered under warranty."

How many lines of code are in Google's WebRTC implementation (https://t.co/JZRtXX5Mcz)? As of the end of 2018, it consists of 1.21M lines of code (up from 1.08M in 2017); for a comparison, this is 3x as much code as the Space Shuttle software.

Don't let "but I'm not an expert" stop you from publishing and presenting. Sharing and sparking excitement is as - if not more - important than pure facts. Experts can share biases along with their facts and that stifles innovation. Help diversify. We need your voice.

Why can I openly access all of Google's AI research papers but not all of the academic ones from publicly funded universities?
