Fun fact: most bananas sold commercially are clones and thus genetically identical. This intended mutation actually *adds* to the gene pool...

Sentences do not end with a comma: to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.

Article 5 The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognised by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area. Any such armed attack and all measures taken as a result thereof shall immediately be reported to the Security Council. Such measures shall be terminated when the Security Council has taken the measures necessary to restore and maintain international peace and security .

Yes

The vast majority of people have neither the theoretical background, nor the necessary attention span for understanding how an AI model works. You can catch up on the theory if you have the attention span. My parents, for example, never got around to even using computers. My uncle, however, did. He did not become a programer, but he could use a computer somewhat comfortably, although he did fall victim to fraudsters once.
So, keep reading, look up wikipedia and youtube for learning, and keep your pins private. You'll be fine.

Playing outside is for free. Excluding maybe shoes, a ball or similar equipment and the occasional band-aid.

You're missing the point. It's not about electronics per se, but DRM. Audio quality is irrelevant. So, unless that electronic turntable is monitoring what it is playing and cross-references that to a database of your licensed music, or needs a stupid app to work (I hope I'm not giving them ideas...), then your argument is moot.

GP's statement smelled a bit off, so I did the googling and found this: https://spectator.sme.sk/busin... The citet article is paywalled. Dunno if it's legit or not, but it still smells bad: Of all things thinkable, why would you waste the energy?!

You mean, you went on to the second paragraph and found it better?

No, but if you were shown that one of the *other* doors has a goat behind it, would you decide to stick to your original door choice, or choose the 3rd door instead?

Back in my day, we solved this using CVS and LaTeX. You can use Git now.

på?! First the ± symbol and now this?! Did Slashdot fix its Unicode support?! Did I miss the article, or did Slashdot fail to report its own news for nerds and stuff that matters?!

I will not pretend I understand the paper, but this is a big deal! I find it annoyingly funny that the very mathematical definition of the continuity hypothesis (on which fluid dynamics is based), that the density equals the limit of DeltaMass/DeltaVolume for DeltaVolume going to zero, will break up if you actually apply it in reality: for volumes down at the atomic level the mass is not equally distributed anymore unless you use probabilities. This is very helpful in explaining some fluid dynamic principles, like Bernoulli's principle. Deng et al. got our back!

Does it also work when you have a bleeding nose and a broken jaw? Asking for a friend.

+1 Funny, because it's funny.
+1 Insightful, because you should *really* not forget your error bars.
+1000 Interesting, because you used the actual ± symbol. I had to look up how to do it.
