Most likely in reference to a large number of NSFW video games being pulled from Steam and Itch.io after pressure from payment processors

'I recently took a french class, and yet I don't even know half of these german words'

This is 100% the answer, the only solution to the model decay from LLM outputs overwhelming the web is to start collecting data IRL.

This is also why companies like OpenAI are desperately investing in 'AI wearables' that no-one wants. They have to get the unpolluted data from somewhere, and recording real conversations will at least mostly have come from actual humans instead of AI.

Reminds me of

Torpenhow Hill is a hill in Cumbria, England. Its name consists of the Old English ‘Tor’, the Welsh ‘Pen’, and the Danish ‘How’ - all of which translate to modern English as ‘Hill’. Therefore, Torpenhow Hill would translate as hill-hill-hill hill

Not even Millennials see action against your employer as 'betrayal'. Company loyalty is dead, and this professor is out of touch.

The plot has already being discussed at length. I want to talk about quidditch.

Quick recap, in quidditch, scoring goals scores 10 or 20 points, catching the snitch scores 150 points, and ends the game. This effectively means that the only way a team can catch the snitch and lose is if they are over 150 points behind.

As a result of this, logically the seaker should not attempt to catch the snitch if the score is this unfavourable, meaning the game is always decided by the seaker, and nothing anyone else is doing remotely matters. Remember also we see the audience is rarely able to see what the seeker is doing from the stands.

Now you may say "what about the world cup in book 4, Krumm catches the snitch and still loses". This can only be attributed to Krumm got mad at his team, or maybe bored, otherwise he should just wait and see if his team can score a goal or two. If the other team's seaker catches the snitch you lose anyway, so why even try until it's going to win you the game? Maybe he was showing off to Hermione.

We also know for certain that this happens very rarely, as the odds given to the twins by Ludo Bagman are very high, leading to a big payout. Therefore quidditch is entirely decided by something that happens well out of sight of the audience, and would be terrible to watch or play.

As an aside, the rules around catching the snitch leading to a draw are never mentioned, but I assume they have some penalty shootout system

We were told he was fortified in a tunnel network surrounded by bodyguards and hostages as human shields, like some terrorist mastermind.

He is killed running alone from one bombed out house to another, by a soldier that didn't even recognize him.

Not saying he shouldn't have been killed, but it really shows the false pretenses under which this 'war' is being carried out.

The first line of that article is

Without citing a source, Channel 12 reports...

Please try harder. There are people dying because of misinformation.

More than the huge amount of trash floating there? I feel this is missing the forest for the trees

Exactly, have fun trying to get test coverage without dependency injection

Binary Large OBject

Basically any binary file, often objected to in open source repos because of the lack of source and 'openness'. See also the recent xz backdoor.

'Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.'

Study computer science if you like it, it's never been about making good 'coders' or software engineers.

I don't think the number of software engineers will ever drop to zero, but the days of 'learn to code' to get a high paying job guaranteed are definitely over.

'Xitter' is pronounced 'Shitter' and is common a playful joke

Exactly this. I was taught not to point a gun at anything I don't intend to destroy, even if I believe it not to be loaded.

Anything less than that is negligent manslaughter at the least if the gun 'goes off' 'by accident', because you should never be in that situation.

CNN called it 'Temu Versailles' the other day, seems very apt.

If they are only preventing opportunity, the crime will just take place at a different place or time when an officer is not present. The program's mentioned are aimed at reducing the motive for crime, which applies at all places and times.

The goal is not to stop the people in the queue being attacked, its to stop someone boarding a plane with the means to hijack it

AI in the computation sense can refer to any system that appears intelligent. This includes simple logic. It seems to be you that is confusing AI with Machine Learning.

The courts can only interpret the law. The wording of the law refers to 'sex' i.e. Biological sex, not gender, hence the ruling.

Only the media is talking about the 'definition of a woman'. This is not what the ruling is on.

That isn't to say that the equalities act shouldn't be changed to also include gender, I strongly believe it should and hope against hope that the Labour government will, but it is not in the supreme court's power to enact new law.

Lack of understanding of the legal system leads to a lot of misdirected anger, I'm on your side, but be angry at the right people.
