The whole AI craze is in fact an American ruse to trick Chinese into wasting money. And it seems to be working!

In the original article there was no heinous crime. Just some businessmen was put in prison for lying to investors which allegedly affected stock market. He in fact was able to deliver trucks and getting paid. They had some issues too it seems but no more than Boeing recently. So this basically reeks of selective enforcement because pretty much everyone lie and it's part of standard marketing practices. I don't like liars myself but I'm absolutely sure that if convictions like this were consistently done then there wouldn't be a single unimprisoned businessmen around.

Drivers is an interesting point. If some laptop vendor stays linux only for long enough then they'll likely develop many builtin devices that don't have windows drivers, unless third party volunteers provide them. I don't see why Huawei itself would do any windows drivers for anything anymore.

On the other hand if expectations never changed then we wouldn't be able to ever replace horses with cars. I'd say it's fine if a charity installs a linux distro to avoid security issues. If one absolutely wants win10 then let them install it. It's more effort but beggars can't be choosers. At least charities wouldn't be distributing software with known vulnerabilities to users.

Wrt intersex cases people always have fertility only from one of sexes, there is no true hermaphroditism in humans. So at least that part is always binary. While genetalia and secondary characteristics can develops in any combination depending on particular mutation.Though it's still so rare that it can't shape social customs.

Biological sex can be determined yes, and there are rare "intersex" cases too. But social gender roles are a different thing. Some people think that they should have other sex's traditional social role, but it doesn't make sense to me honestly. If you want to fight against sex-determined stereotypes(i.e. gender) that don't apply to you then you must fight against the whole notion of gender rather than trying to adopt a different sex's set of stereotypes. So this stereotype of "gender" isn't a fact but rather ideological opinion which people can have a different opinion on.

Most political and religious "opinions" are not in fact truth apt. Either they represent particular person's way at looking at things or an objective to pursue. They can be neither proven nor falsified. But you can scientifically catalogue what opinions different people have.

It's issue of closed source software. All modern codebases target primarily 64-bit and actual 32-bit CPUs are already retro computing hardware. Many projects remove 32-bit codepaths if they had them because they can't justify testing them properly anymore. CUDA is just one of them. While old 32bit games can't just be recompiled because their source is tightly controlled and in some cases even just plain lost.

Did they actually drop APT? I don't think so. They only used some hack involving apt using snap to install chrome but it resulted in lots of criticism.

There's no guarantee that even with those changes there will be enough technicians, especially those are are professional enough to not regularly cause lethal accidents.

I know that democracy existed only in ancient Greece and it was based on heavy inequality between people with vote and slaves/women/etc. So you can be happy that there's no real democracy nowadays. But fight vs encryption is doomed unless you find that P=NP.

Our "current models" are based on solving general relativity equations for whole universe. You shouldn't expect any actual precise description from this model since general relativity doesn't apply on quantum scales and therefore isn't helpful at modelling first moments after big bang.

How do you even find any difference between UHD and FullHD? Are you looking at your monitor/tv using a microscope? Or the monitor/tv is the size of average barn? Post FullHD differences are in practice not nearly as pronounced as those from transition from 320x200x256 and 640x480x16 to 1024x768.

It's not that simple. Grades don't reflect knowledge too. There's lot of subjective parts in grading process. And quite obviously there's lot of pressure to make things more accessible for people with means.

Education wouldn't automatically give knowledge though. If the ultra-rich can afford to excel in colleges without actually learning then we'd just end up with lot of ultra-rich people who are dumber than average person from masses because they were carried through education by money.
