Why would you want to?
People always come up with these ridiculous cases where I need to tow my 5 ton motor home 3000 miles to grandmas house for Christmas.
If you prefer, just keep sending money to the petro-states and corrupt corporations and keep funding wars to keep the whole thing running.

Nobody is going win this war.
We all lose.
Physical death and destruction in the Middle East. Economic destruction in the rest of the world.
The Middle East will take years to recover (if ever).
The rest of the world will be permanently scarred.
It's truly a World War (III).

And even after all these years there are still plenty of idiots who don't understand what the word "average" means. I always see them slowing down for a camera then speeding right back up again afterwards. How do people this dumb get a license?

I've read that the spacecraft is now travelling at 24,500 mph. Given the moon is ~250K miles away even my bad maths can figure out thats approx 10 hours travel time so why are they quoting a 4 day trip to get there?

Oh yes im pissed off that proton and cedega are in the news but im not and there dead ans burried. Looking at some of the changes made to direct3d it seems steam os requires that apps dont count activex instization and it wouldnt suprise me if it forced software nulling of buffers because thease some things that make strict directx 3d slow and by passing them gives substantial performance increases unfortunally someone put me in a cardboard coffin before i was able to roll this out when i wrote dirextx9 for vanilla wine many moons ago. So, im going to revisit direct3d with levels of strictness vs performance with some of the features being able to be rolled out across the entire activex architecrure in wine. I also wrote a text literal pdf importer and some other funky stuff along the way so you should soon be able to edit pdfs with a text editor instead of current vecror implementations the lengths someone has gone to to prevent the release of this are outstanding so hopefully its as disruptive as direcrx9 for vanilla wine was back all those years ago. If you find my corpse somewhere you know why.

"lossy compression"

Yes, just like human memory.

If I read a bunch of books from a series and extrapolate based on them to form something similar, it's not plagiarism.

If I read your book, then write a book using a similar voice, style, and plot, and do it in a different language - it's not plagiarism if I offer citation. Likewise, if I do so with a verbatim copy in another language. It's an independent effort.

Ultimately, it boils down to what you can get away with. Considering how trivial it is now to re-implement things, I'd say the chance of license enforcement is close to zero for anything open source except in extremely rare situations where there's a lot of money involved.

Please crash and burn harder AI industry bubble. I'm not buying RAM again until it's less than $6/GB. We are currently at 2009 prices for RAM:

I'm really regretting not just maxing out my homelab with RAM when it was all reasonable.

The UK has reliable rainfall data from the 1860's (165 years), and less reliable records going back further. But compared with 1,200 years, you have the right magnitude.

Facebook is tightly tied to the government, launched the day after DARPA shut down LifeLog and was originally funded by Peter Thiel. It's always been intended as a global surveillance system. OpenAI also has ties to the US government and any of the same Peter Thiel backed entities.

OpenAI benefits from a global control grid. You know what China has with surveillance and companies providing individual person credit scores? The US and EU governments want that, but automated and on steroids. These people are evil and OpenAI/Anthropic are devouring the world's data, eating through RAM and storage and ultimately push for technocratic subjugation of people to fit into their perfect regime.

For some reason it still seems to surprise a lot of people - even some scientists - that global warming is not a steady linear process but rather it goes in fits and starts and sometimes maybe slightly backwards in temp in some places for a short while. A sudden jump in heat one year - and hence record snow melt - should not come as a shock to anyone especially academics in the field.

I suggest you go watch some crash videos on youtube where that actually happens and maybe you can educate yourself as to what really happens as opposed to what you imagine does. Cars are far less crash protected at the rear plus in all the videos I've seen of these broken down self drives, all the other traffic is going around them very slowly so it would be no problem for people to get out and walk to the shoulder.

If you can substantially distinguish how tokenized abstraction is any different than natural learning, I'd buy it. But as it's not, I don't think that's a meaningful argument.
