A six paragraph summary that doesn't once mention what the company makes or sells. I'm guessing that's because it's actually nothing; the next in a long line of vaporware IPOs.

We will not provide information to law enforcement unless we are required by a valid court order or subpoena for genetic information.
Quoted from the MyHeritage policy linked in the parent. Emphasis mine. As long as LEOs had a warrant, everything above board. No matter what any company policy says, all data of any kind must be released if there is a valid court order to do so. That's literally the purpose of court orders. If it exists, it can be subpoenaed.
It looks to me like they're just using raw electrical potential derived from a sensor stuck into a mushroom to feed into the robot drive controller. Any other input signal, RNG source or antenna picking up random crap would have done the same thing.
Doctors recommend picking up your prescriptions at a local pharmacy whenever possible during hot summer months
There's a 98% chance that the meds at the local pharmacy spent a good portion of their journey stacked in boxes on the same FedEx/UPS/DHL/USPS trucks that do the home deliveries. It's not like they magically appear at the pharmacy 4 blocks from my house.
At least in my experience the more energy-efficient the appliance, the more likely it is to break and the least likely the ability to do a field repair in an emergency situation. Some specific examples I've run into are vendor-locked ECM motors in air conditioners. Even minor lightning storms blow out the control boards, and you can only replace them with manufacturer parts (that are now never available due to "supply chain issues" a.k.a "price-fixing"). We ran like 8 weeks using window air conditioner units waiting for a replacement part to be shipped; which I'm sure completely wiped out the entire lifetime energy savings of the expensive AC unit. Had another building with a high efficiency condensing boiler which the manufacturer just decided to stop supporting after like 7 years. It got so the only way to keep it running was to buy parts on eBay, at least up until a used circuit board was $700 and we said fuck it and threw the whole thing away in a complete system replacement. Anyway, the point is that any equipment intended for use in an emergency situation needs to be hardened, have no vendor lock-in, and be field repairable with commonly available materials. Somehow I doubt any of this equipment will meet even one of those criteria.
Literally every aircraft of every manufacturer ever built has an extensive list of inspect, eddy test, dye pen, replace, retorque, calibrate, rebuild, lubricate items on the mandatory maintenance lists. Some of these are airworthiness directives, some manufacturer service bulletins, some airline SOPs, some maintenance manual checklists, some just in the experience of seasoned mechanics. Just because a few of them have made the news on Boeing aircraft doesn't mean the list is any smaller or less impactful on any other plane, nor has it ever been.
The plugged door on the Max 9 is optional depending on how many seats the airline decides to put in. The aircraft is certified for a range of different seating configurations, and in the most dense variations an additional exit door is necessary given the number of passengers. In the seating config Alaska uses, the extra exit door is not required, so it is plugged.
Everyone who scrolls through travelocity.com to find a flight that is $0.01 cheaper.
...and in addition to economics, sometimes certain types of perceived safety. For example: ammonia, propane and butane are excellent, cheap and widely available refrigerants. They aren't allowed in residential or most commercial units because there is a theoretical risk of explosion if the gas leaks into the building.
This technology can create a cooling or heating effect just like a heat pump using current technology. It cycles the electrocaloric material on and off, and between cycles can use a nontoxic coolant fluid such as plain old water or glycol solution to transfer heat away from the ceramic material to an outdoor unit where the heat is discharged to the environment. It's essentially quite similar to an air conditioner, but replaces the compressor and refrigerant gas with a fancy ceramic material and a water pump. The hydrocarbon refrigerants like Freon or Puron are eliminated from the process.
This is a ridiculous summary of the article. It certainly is meant to conjure fears of an overbearing surveillance state. However, if you RTFA you'll see that the video footage the robot provided to LAPD was footage of two men trying to actually steal the robot itself while it was rolling down the sidewalk. It was not some unrelated crime the robot happened to capture.
No, you've really got the facts wrong and backwards. Existing radio altimeters were tested and certified by the FAA at a time when there was a large unused guard band between the frequencies that radio altimeters used and other radio communications. The FCC went ahead and repurposed radio bands for 5G that were adjacent to those used by radio altimeters without doing any ACTUAL testing of existing radio altimeters in use in aircraft. They did SIMULATED testing, and claimed everything would be fine. The FAA disagreed. They said that simulated testing did not meet aviation testing standards and that there is theoretical possibility of 5G sites near airports causing interference with radio altimeters which are an essential tool that commercial airliners use on final approach when landing in very bad weather like heavy fog.
The airlines are pissed about the whole fiasco, because they are using equipment that was already approved for use in the US. They rightfully believe that the expense of testing and upgrading radio altimeters should be paid by either the FCC or the cell band owners who are the ones invading radio spectrum that has been used by aviation for decades.
Parents can't say no, get mad at media company instead.
YouTube is not even close to the new cable. A YT subscription is $11/mo for unlimited viewing and zero advertisements. The cheapest cable plan in my area when I canceled years ago was $65/mo and every program on every channel still had tons of ads. YT is a significantly better value than cable ever was.
I know it's cool to hate big companies and everything, but the license of this spectrum belongs to a real low power public interest broadcaster. It's licensed to a local catholic organization for religious programming.
