What, if.... the director actually wanted it to be the way it is? I don't want to watch Schindler's list that looks like Mary Poppins.

Might also add that a typical adult's brain has had (by definition) at least 18 years of exposure to the surroundings through 9 senses, and all the cause & effect experimentation throughout their lives. That's some hefty neural network training right there.

This is wrong. Originally all banknotes were actually "IOUs" stating that the bank will give you x amount of some precious metal in exchange for this note. And the amount of released banknotes was directly proportional to the amount of gold stored in the bank's vaults. Of course, this connection was broken during the WW1, when extra banknotes were released to pay war expenses.

I wonder why people even READ his own little playground "Truth Social". News organizations should just skip it, let the man rumble on his own. Let's just stick to the official governmental channels, like The White House X channel, which is a credible.... oh sh*t, never mind.

Not sure if you were joking, but just in case, if you have managed to be on the interner without hearing about Home Assistant in recent years, that's quite an achievement. Seriously, it is an amazing platform to build home automation on. Fully local, if that is the way you want it. Thousands of ready-made integrations to various devices, and more released every day. And a very active community: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.home-assistant.io%2F

gold can't be heated more than three times their boiling point, 1,948 degrees Fahrenheit (1,064 degrees Celsius)

First of all, that is Gold's melting point (not boiling point). Second, what does "three times the temperature" even mean in this case - measured in Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin, it gives different results...? And third - nature does not have such exact limits, so I understand that "three times" must be a rounded figure here.

I hope you realize that what you quoted from the article is mostly rubbish regarding the technology improvements 6G is bringing? For example latency, 5G has that already well below 10ms (in some applications closer to 1ms to the tower), and now 6G promises several orders of magnitude better?

Furthermore most of internet latency (tens of milliseconds) comes from the fact that the server you are connecting to is NOT in that cell tower, but far, far away, and in any case, that traffic is going over the fiber backbone, so 6G is not improving that either.

Stupid, or... Putin's puppets? I found the theory about Krasnov more and more plausible as we get more and more thse kinds of "destruction of the empire" actions.

I do not OWN a wallet. Plastic is in the slots of the phone cover. No place for bills or coins... It's been years since I have paid in cash here in Finland.

No need to invent new terms. In english language, the word Artificial has many meanings - and this is why "AI" is such a controversial term.

It seems that the Artificial in "Artificial intelligence" is commonly understood to mean "man made", but I would argue it originally meant either of these other interpretations: Artificial in "Artificial Smile" means fake. And artificial in "artificial gun sound" means something imitating a gun sound.

Exactly my point, it has been used for a long time. No need to mention it, unless you want to do marketing and ride the AI wave/hype.

Wonderful news, if this really leads to a cure. But I couldn't help myself thinking that this would have been a much better and convincing story if only they had left out the "with AI" part. These days, anything with an AI angle reads more like marketing text instead of scientific/medical news.

I would argue that even though Linux originated as a single person's passion project, it quickly became a joint effort, with ever growing contributor base.

Similar argument can be said on the SCIENCE behind neural networks. I read a good book on the history of the subject - since about 2010, as the interest started growing in neural networks, the leading minds insisted that their employers let them publish their findings (i.e. science). This is the reason that others have been able to build on that expertise, in a not dissimilar way from the Linux project.

For example, the idea of transformer architecture, which is behind all current LLMs, originated from Google - and was published as open science for others to build on: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Farxiv.org%2Fabs%2F1810.048... . Later on, as more and more vendors have turned closed source, these Deepseeks kind of re-enable this long lasting trend in neural network research.

No, he is not, why would you think that? He is talking about Linux kernel, how it blossomed as open source project - using it as an example of a successful open source project.

You have it backwards. Tariffs are paid by the importer and very probably that cost is carried over to the consumer.
And EU exports many items that are quite crucial to US economy, i.e. there are no easy substitutes - thus, this hurts US economy.

Most exported goods from EU to US? Top of the list:
1. Medicinal and pharmaceutical products
2. Medicaments
3. Motor cars (BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi, Ferrari, Porche, Lamborghini, etc...)
4. Aircraft and associated equipment (e.g. Boeing 777/787 and F35 use Rolls-Royce engines)
And the list goes on. Good luck redesigning the F35 !
