This code was made available (if less than lawfully, nobody who matters complained) over ten years ago; I believe the conclusion of that story is here.

For example, if I asked you, "what is 98 + 87?" you would probably intuitively subtract 2 from 87 to get 85, then add 100 to get 185.

Now that's a weird, counterintuitive, roundabout trick if I ever saw one. When I saw that question, I simply added the two numbers together in my head and see no reason to do things the hard way as you expect.

Here's another real world example: most adults know that if 100 soldiers try out for the Green Berets, only three will pass, but if you ask them what percentage passes, they'll draw a blank.

Republicans continue their war on science

No, they're just using alcohol to extract it, just as it gets extracted while wine or whiskey are being barrel aged.

The Golden Age of any civilization is always in the past. The ancient Greeks already realized that.

Yes, that is because Jews can count money really well.

Talent is real. It takes a special kind of mind to be good at math, engineering, science, programming, etc.
For years a myth has been promoted that the key to riches is a STEM degree, and that anybody can do it.
Some believed that the only thing that mattered was the degree, not the talent or hard work required to get it. So they slouched through college, putting in minimum effort, socializing, binge drinking and cheating on exams, with predictable results.
Talented people set their own standards, so to them, the concept of lowered standards is meaningless.
Meanwhile, in China, millions of very talented people are working hard.

Precisely. LLM systems are, ultimately, auto complete on steroids. That they can present a reasonable simulacrum of intelligence, does not change the fact that there is nothing else intelligence involved. No reasoning, no knowledge. Just probability based word assemblies.

that is why we are not sufficiently impressed for this douche. We see the limitations, and the harms that come from ignoring the limitations, and end up underwhelmed. They are promising something they are not actually delivering.

Yup, got to ask Schumer for the stats - he must be sitting on it.

There are 131 oil refineries in the US - a little more than few

Sure. I would expect that each country would want to protect themselves from other countries.

What about the artificial vanilla flavor?

Chemically it's identical to what you get from vanilla beans, and it's not synthesized in a lab. The only differences are that it's extracted from wood, and the other chemicals that give natural vanilla its rich flavor aren't there.

Karo is not HFCS , but yeah, lot of kitchens have hydrogenated oils (a.k.a "shortening", also "margarine"), artificial colors ("food coloring"), and flavors (vanillin probably is most common). HFCS would be unusual in a home kitchen, but "invert sugar" is less so and pretty much the same thing. Sucrose itself is already highly processed, it doesn't exactly come out of the beet as a white granular substance.

The UPF thing is woo, by people who should know better. At least the bro science people know they're bro science people. Or it's just a scam.

>"This is about whether a hostile third party can affect a vehicle remotely because of manufacturer incompetence."

Oh, well, both are important :)

I have often wondered if it is reasonable to just find the antenna(s) and put a keyswitch across it/them, so you have absolute control over when/if they can be accessed remotely at all.
