AI cannot extrapolate, per construction. They can interpolate better than anyone, but as soon as you leave its dataset, it has no clue anymore.

You can feed the best AI a trillion photos of cats, if none of them included a black cat, it will be fundamentally unable to tell you that a picture of a black cat contains a cat.

The illusion that it can extrapolate comes from the fact that these models are fed with humongous amounts of data, so even just interpolating is still mostly good enough as you won't go near the edge of the dataset.

Religion? Rust? What are you talking about.

Rust is a programming language. It is groundbreaking in that it offers one feature that no other language has: It can guarantee thread safety.

In thew modern world of multi core everything, even on phones, it it a pretty big deal.

There is no religion involved.

Servo was meant to be groundbreaking. It builds a rendering engine which is multithreaded.
None of the competition have that. And since virtually all clients have many many cores, this holds the promise of being many times faster than anything existing right now.

Mozilla invented Rust specifically for this. They started rewriting Gecko in Rust and alas, pursuing bells ans whistles, they ended up dumping the project.

What a bunch of morons.

Well, you have to get rid of the extra electricity. That's one more problem to handle.

What about a lawyer who won their first case and then immediately changed profession — would that qualify?

Still no. They are required to make their modified version available under the same LGPL license to the people they distribute their product to

If you use it for internal purposes to your company, you are not required to do anything.

Well, that's already the case. You cannot start an identifer with a "number" in many languages (C included). A "number" is an arbitrarily defined subset of all glyphs. Also, one might not use a "whitespace" in an identifier. Guess what a "whitespace" is? An arbitrarily defined subset of all glyphs.

So what you are describing as utter nonsense is exactly what is going on under the scene right now with pretty much all languages.

Wow. The day your bubble burst is going to be hard for you.

Bitcoin doesn't lie on what it is and what it does. AI companies on the other hand ...

It’s almost impressive to hear you complain about “political indoctrination” while your post is a textbook example of it.

Your country (The USA) used to be the leader of science. That is one big reason it was so successful and is now the major power in the world. Seeing you and Trump tear all that down is really frightening. Jesus won't come to save you, you know? It's just a fairy tale just like Santa Claus.

Exactly. This press release is just a convoluted way to advertise how badass their product is.

Whether or not mathematics qualifies as a science is more a matter of philosophy than definition.

When a scientific theory is proposed, you can choose to believe in it or not — but belief doesn’t affect whether the theory accurately describes reality. As independent experiments accumulate consistent results, confidence in the theory increases because the data keeps confirming it.

Newton’s theory of gravitation, for example, turned out to be incomplete when tested at extreme scales. Still, within the limits of everyday experience, it remains perfectly accurate. For centuries, every possible experiment agreed with Newton’s equations, so people accepted them as “true” — and for practical purposes, they still are.

Climate change follows the same logic. It’s supported by a vast body of observations and consistent models grounded in well-established physics. Most scientists accept it because the evidence is overwhelming. Yet some, like Trump, reject it — not because the data is lacking, but because when facts clash with ideology, the mind often builds a comforting alternate reality instead.

The thing with science, is you can stop believing in it, it still works. Trump doesn't believe in climate change. That doesn't prevent the climate from changing.
2+2 is 4. You can ignore me and think it's 7, but if you got 2 apples and someone gives you two more apples you still get 4 apples in the end, not 7.

office365 on the web - while not perfect - works on all OSes and printing is just about generating a PDF, which you can pring no matter the OS you're using.

Now, sharing files is a pain since you can only collaborate from OneDrive (or SharePoint) with office, but still. It kinda works.
