One would think their own Pokémon Go would count as prior art, released in 2016.

They're a little bit early, but this part has to be a joke: "Wang suggests guns, which have a long history of age-verification features not quite working."

This could be ameliorated if websites didn't insist on pushing tons of ads and other junk, which bots just ignore anyway.

For illustration, a blog post: The 49MB Web Page (Hacker News discussion)

It's functional, but written in Tcl/Tk, so the JavaScript addicts can't theme it.

No such chips are hardened, but the funny thing about AI and radiation interference is that LLMs are just random noise anyway, so a little bit more noise won't hurt it noticeably.

This seems to be a violation of the CC-BY-SA license granted to Wikipedia by its editors, since the AI companies do not give proper attribution in the output of their models. (Given the vast volume of sources each model has ingested, it would be impractical to do so.)

The good thing about old QWERTY phones was that they didn't have a touchscreen. Physical buttons for Answer and Hang Up, among others. Fix that, then we can talk.

I was going to say that since the site is ad-financed, it would eventually get enshittified, but I didn't think it would be this fast.

Would this kill all centralized social media platforms? Could we replace them with properly decentralized alternatives?

WikiMedia has been doing some research into alternatives to Slack and found that Matrix is the best.

Zulip and Mattermost may look cool, but they have annoying monetization structures for orgs over a dozen people.

The thing that would be World First is not molten salt fuel in general, but the specific type of chloride-uranium salt that would be used for the not-yet-built "Molten Chloride Reactor Experiment".

Linux has a number of rules for licences in the kernel source tree. "Public domain" code is not mentioned. It seems implied that every contribution has some well-defined license.

At first I thought "no they won't", because why would you bother with the Moon if NASA's not going to pay for it?

Then, I thought that NASA has already paid for much of it, via the segmented nature of the HLS contracts, and even if Starship HLS doesn't line up with Artemis 3, you might as well run the mission if you've got the hardware. Ops and fuel costs relatively little.

Then imagine the PR boost to the first private company that lands people on the Moon and return them safely to the Earth. :D

Assuming those exploits target the software and not the hardware, then installing OpenWRT would fix them.
