That's the Science process. People make mistakes, and their results can't be reproduced. New papers are written to point out the errors. A study finds out why the results could not be repeated, and new knowledge has been gained.

Instead of improving the process of error correction, your idea seems to be to not do Science at all, because if no peer-reviewed papers are produced, there are no peer-reviewed papers which can't be reproduced, right?

He still can't prove his claims. No need to debunk him. And just because he was able to point out errors in some of the papers that tried to correct him, he wasn't proven right in any way. Errare humanum est, and you can be wrong in so many ways that most of them contradict each other. This does not make any of them more right than the others.

Of all I accused him, this is the only thing you noticed? And your argument boils down to "I can't be a racist. Some of my servants are black."

You have a very naive way of looking at the world. First, Russia does not place its intercontinental rockets around Moscow. They are mainly around the Kola peninsula close to the Finish border, in the Ural mountains, on the peninsula Kamtchatka close to the Alaskian Shore and on the Kurilian Islands North of Japan. Second, the Stable Genius did not have any Strategic ideas. He just looked at a map, and in his imperial reflex, he saw places in North America, which werenât U.S. territory, which greatly bothered him. As annexing Mexico would mean 100 Million Mexicans suddenly becoming U.S. citizens, he dropped the idea of demanding Mexico, but Canada and Greenland? Oh yes!

Then we are lucky, that they actually donâ(TM)t, with the exception being the Democratic Republic Congo. Or as the late Hans Rosling put it: You canât do politics for the 2000s with the Information from 1970.

An argument repeated at nauseam without ever being true, given the current president of the Ukraine is a Russian speaking jew.

The Hellenic Greeks (Alexander the Great and the Diadochs), the Romans and the Persians were famous for a) building really large empires and b) actually caring for the civilizations they conquered. After the Romans for instance conquered the last of the Greek Diadoch kingdoms, Greek became the language of choice for the Roman elite. Alexander the Great took over the Persian bureaucracy and even coopted the Persian court ceremonial for himself. Ptolemaios, despite being of Macedonian origin, became pharao of Egypt and started the longest lasting Egyptian dynasty of all, which existed for nearly 300 years. Persians took the cuneiform from the Assyrian and Babylonian cultures they conquered, and Babylon was the largest and most prosperous city of Ancient Persia.

So you are not exactly right with your assesment.

You do it the same way as you do all your research. Compare them. Compare sources. Compare with previous knowledge. Do your due diligence. AI is just another source, and you work with it as with every other source. There is no point in throwing up your hands and cry: "But it's AI!".

It still does, because now, you are vetting the search results if they could have been generated by AI, which is a cognitive process, and helps with remembering and deeper understanding of your research.

And it worked. There were two reasons why Munich switched back to MS: Changing political majorities in the city council, and Microsoft Germany being headquartered in Munich.

It's not about boycotting U.S. based contributions to software. It's about getting your data out of U.S. escrow. As long as Microsoft puts everything in a cloud controlled by an U.S. based entity, Lyon doesn't control any data it puts into Microsoft software. Lyon is a town in France, and not in the U.S.. So Lyon prefers its data to be completely within the French legal system.

Code put in Linux is not controlled by any U.S. based entity. When in doubt, you can always fork. Hence Lyon does not have the same level of concern about using Linux.

The train is invented. It's called Multi-Gigabt-Optics. A 100 GBit/sec QSFP+ is just a $6000 price tag away. But a 10 GBit/sec SFP+ is available for $15 or less.

What you wanted to say is you don't lay the track before you know what the payload will be. Back in the time, when DSL was barely reaching 2 MBit/sec, many people were wondering who would ever need those speeds. Then Netflix came along. You might not see a need for 10 GBit/sec in every room right now, but believe me: the applications will come. And maybe you aren't the one jumping on the new application band wagon, but enough people will.

This is the standard argument against every speed increase I've seen so far. When the first railway lines were laid, there was already the argument that no one will ever need to travel at twice the speed of a horse drawn carriage.

He is a anti-vaxxer and conspiracy nutjob. That has nothing to do with 1960ies Democrats (or Dixiecrats). But yes, a Democrat candidate like Strom Thurmond was running on a platform which is far more aligned to today's Republican party.

I don't know about you, but here around, I can get a 2 sqm solar panel at my local hardware store for $99. Where I live, I can expect about 120 W per sqm, hence the 2 sqm panel will give me 250 W during daylight. If I calculate with 6 hrs of sunshine each year, and 360 days per year, I am getting 540 kWh per year. My panel will have paid for itself after one year already at 20 ct/kWh.

I might need a $300converter though, but I could increase my panel area to 10 sqm for a total price of $1300, which will generate about 5400 kWh per year. After about 1.5 years, my solar system has paid for itself.

Additionally, we have so called balcony power stations, which you can mount yourself, and which are rated at 800 W peak output. They are priced at about $300-$400. You can plug them into any wall outlet, and on the same circuit, they will power whatever electricity demanding device you have. You have to inform your local utility about their existence, and they will come and inspect them, but then your are fine to use them.

Solar in the U.S. has a deep regulatorial problem: lots of hurdles to conquer for the lay person. Check Why SOLAR Panels Cost 3X MORE in USA vs Europe for reference.
