Patents, buddy. Developers know things better than you do. Plus other reasons, but I suspect you'll just handwave them all away because you're very very smart. It's definitely not vastly better than JPEG XL.

There's no possible way you're a programmer.

Google says that patent expired in September of 2025, as it was filed in 2005. Yes, we are getting old.

Personally, I prefer the old rectangular Thinkpad charging connectors.

Says the person still posting on slashdot.

With permanent DST we won't get the stories twice a year.

Used as a tool it's great. Used as a black box machine to generate a load of text on a subject the prompter has no knowledge of... terrible.

E.g. use it to lineedit your assignment and highlight errors. Don't get it to WRITE the assignment in the first place.

Otherwise you're throwing the contents of a garbage can into the oven and pressing a button that says 'pizza' - when you've never seen a pizza before, or tasted one.

They'll need the money to settle all the resulting lawsuits.

There is a photo of a world leader sitting while everyone around the leader is standing.

A caption on the photo claims that everyone was standing in respect to veterans and the leader chose to stay seated. I saw the captioned photo on Tiktok.

A few days later, Tiktok was filled with propagandists all referencing the captioned photo and claiming the leader was bad for not standing to respect veterans.

I don't know if the caption is true or not. But it sure convinced a lot of people. So how do you solve this problem?

Don't have to be a profit^w prophet to see that coming.

Its reply to me:

"Yes, in large part."

But that is mostly caused by NVidia's lackluster driver support in Linux.

Uh, sure.

The fact that this approach is catalytic rather than requiring a binding agent seems positive in terms of longevity and not being directly depleted by repeat exposure; but I'd be curious how durable the material is under real-world conditions(clothing that gets hard wear tends to get hard washes) and also how specific it is. 'Organophosphate' means something moderately specific in the context of chemical warfare; but a lot of fairly prosaic compounds are, technically, 'organophosphates'(like DNA and RNA when held together by phosphodiester bonds); and this would be considerably less helpful in practice if it is busy chewing up the genomes of random soil bacteria; and markedly less helpful in practice if there's a "do not perturb the nanites in your clothing if you want them to not migrate into your cells and start mitigating the harmful effects of your DNA" user notice on the treated article.

IQ measurements keep going up.
Autism diagnoses keep going up.
The price of food keeps going up.
People get a year older every year.

Something fishy is going on.

Are they going to chip you, or control your brain by more direct means?

This doesn't seem like a lie, a NIC is in a pretty good position to knock something off the network if it feels like it and the 'bluefield' devices have enough punch onboard to run some rules regarding whether or not to do that; but it seems like a wild exaggeration of how helpful it actually is.

If you actually have a set of rules that detect your bot being wicked it will presumably save you some CPU time to run them on the NIC rather than having the host CPU watching the traffic; but the hard part is the set of rules that detect your bot being wicked.

This is basically the equivalent of adding a firewall and claiming that you've solved network security. Yeah, the firewall is pretty well placed to block malicious traffic; defining 'malicious traffic' is left as an exercise for the reader.
