GrapheneOS is not GPL, sadly.

The US has many places named after Napoleon. Or Columbus. That is history. Do you want to cover up every name associated with every bad thing that ever happened? OK, I respect your opinion, but I disagree.

Whoa! I'm not the person why are angry at. I loathe Trump.
"Yes, and also... " is not whataboutism. I'm not making some stupid equivalence by saying Biden had fault also. It was far the lessor offense. But let's not be blind.

This is a good thing, and I hope the archive will also include signs removed by previous administrations in their attempts to "rewrite history".
This political rewriting is not confined to one political pole, and sadly is not a new thing.

for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Nazi? You are confusing SpaceX with NASA and the Apollo program 60 years ago. They are no longer hiring.

(Can always rely on morons to self-identify by posting AC.)

Makes me glad I gave up on TV. (OTOH, it makes me worry about the next time I need to replace a monitor.)

It's a combination of training data and rewards. Chatbots are trained to never admit that they don't know, and to always be willing to be convinced that the person talking to them is correct. This makes them more popular, and enchances engagement, but at the cost of accuracy.

I think that if they're actually generating feature length films, they'll probably be decent...well, not much worse than what they've been doing. Films are expensive not just to shoot, but also to make, so I expect there'll be lots of steps where "editorial judgement" is applied.

OTOH, I'm not a movie goer. I don't know the current quality. And Ed Wood is a level it's pretty hard to go below.

No. The scam callers speak English. Perhaps not well, but it's English that they are speaking.

To repeat a point I made earlier, information is not knowledge. Knowledge may be either true or false (i.e. it's a signed quantity). Information is most densely contained in (at least apparently) random noise.

IIUC, the chinese ideograph system is common between all those languages, and therefore would count as one common language...until the computers started audio processing. (FWIW, it's my understanding that many of the Chinese ideographs even have approximately the same meaning in one of the Japanese writing systems.)

A point, but (and this is admittedly a quibble) I wouldn't call languages a "vast body of human knowledge". The data encoded within that language might qualify, but not the language itself. Unfortunately, without understanding the language there's no way of reasonably estimating the size of the contained "human knowledge" that isn't contained in sources already covered.

FWIW, I think treating "the internet" as a body of human knowledge is foolish. Parts of it are, but much of it is negative-knowledge (i.e. learning it makes you stupider). The internet *is* a body of human information...but some information is garbage.

Now I admit that, say, Tamil may contain encoded large amounts of history and large amounts of myth. Whether they are clearly enough separated to be called knowledge isn't something I can tell. (Actually, Tamil should contain much of the history of the development of math...but it's not clear to me that this would be readily distinguishable from the related myths even by a careful historian, much less by a current LLM.)

Loans always have such vile terms that I do my best to avoid them. I've been pretty successful, but sometimes there is no real choice. But whenever I bought a car it was cash down, no interest.

As far as I am concerned, the importance of this law is that the person writing the contract has to make the terms clear to the person accepting it. "fine print" has always been a despicable legal tradition.

This isn't something they can't read. This is something that requires a trivial conversion. But you got the message correctly.

It's been reported that the conversion is trivial. So this is purely symbolic + nuisance.
