He later published a blog post outlining some of these potential uses. According to a report by CNBC, Google Cloud head Thomas Kurian responded that the company’s technology could be used for pieces of the contract that didn’t violate its AI principles. Last November, a question about the JWCC’s compatibility with Google’s AI principles received enough upvotes on an internal Q&A tool called Dory to get read out during a companywide all-hands meeting. Chandravongsri is a member of the group, which has pressured management about the JWCC and Project Nimbus. The announcement of Project Nimbus in 2021, and Google’s bid for the Pentagon’s $9 billion flagship cloud project, the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability, has some workers worried the company will significantly expand its military work.Īlphabet Workers Union, which has more than 1,000 members across Google’s parent company but no collective bargaining rights, went public in January 2021 and has since its early days had a working group devoted to scrutinizing military work at Google.

LEGO STAR WARS THE FORCE AWAKENS SET AMZEON FULL
High points, definitely the Lego Beast, that was a lot of fun to make This, the sort of market stall, I do really like all the little details like straw, and the cups and of course the broom.Īnd you get Rey and BB-8 and I think this is the cheapest full set that comes with both of those mini figures. Out the way everyone else, we're making BB8 now.ĭidn't have to use the brick separator once so I count that as a massive win personally. That's really nice detail, my enthusiasm only slightly tempered by the fact it doesn't really show up in the film.īeen looking forward to this point since we started. Little drawer you can see there, it's got a in it And you can slide that in there. We have completed convenient under-bed storage, I think is what this basically is. Now we're going to move on to what every kid wants to play with. Interesting facts about beast I read online, they're non-sentient, and apparently it's not known whether they defecate.
We've got articulated Legs here, and the head. That's pretty cool, don't see many of them. This is T Dove, he is in on the force legos for about 40 seconds. We're looking at The Encounter on Jakku Lego Star Wars set.Īnd then you get Rey, BB-8, you got Unkar Plutt and you also get this guy.
