Just going to point out: russian culture doesnt use nazi in the same way we do; largely they dont view nazis as ontologically bad because of the bigotry or the antisemitism or the genocide of many peoples, but because they were an existential threat to russia or russian ethnicities. a lot of the associations westerners have about nazis are just not widespread in russia. this is why there are a lot of seemingly idiosyncratic phrasings in this kind of stuff.

this is an explicit design feature of federation: free association. this is one of the primary reasons it is in theory better than something centralized. this post is layers of wrong.

see certain optical illusions in a way that other vision models cannot.

eh… but not in a way that is really like what humans see. which is the articles claim, but it makes a clasically cs approach to nuerology: zero effort to prove the quite substantial claim.

Word soup

that is most certainly not word soup. it's also an accurate statement, though uncharitable to the authors claims.

Also, the detail in description of their "quantum" inspiration (an effect not unique to quantum mechanics in fact, at that level of description) reads like they skimmed wikipedia's intro to xyz topic, whether or not the author understands the topics more deeply.

sorry are you saying people should pronounce their own names in ways they don't prefer to be "correct"? Also etc etc language guides are descriptive not prescriptive.

Zulu could have been different, but has "no" (read:minimized) risk of being mistaken for hulu because hulu is not part of the phonetic alphabet. The phonetic alphabet is standardized because it must be, you can find rhymes for any one of these words. No list could be reasonably constructed that wouldn't. Therefore the only reasonable choice is a standardized list that is designed to not self rhyme.

I don't know snough about the crowdstrike stuff in particular to have much of an opinion on it in particular, but I will say that software devs/engineers have long skirted py without any of the accountability present n other engineering fields. If software engineers want to be called engineers, and they should, then this may be an excellnt opportunity to introduce acccountability associations and ethics requirements which prevent or reduce company systemic issues and empower se to enforce good practices.

I'm guessing this article may not be the most thoroughly vetted, no.

Datas is correct if you are referring to multiple distinct populations of data. Which in this case works.

Sibling in existence I know asbestos must be airborne. You aren't refuting anything by repeatedly saying that. Respond to the words I am saying or I can only assume you are copy pasting talking points.
