When you’re 90% through a ASOIAF ebook and it finishes b/c the rest is a list of family names

Public key in a pubic place?

There weren’t any zeros in the training data I got - the text seems to suggest that “0” is allowed but “zero” isn’t.

I think Shapez levels become procedural after a certain number of predetermined ones?

Same everywhere - it’s in the GSM standard

easy to remember, as 9/11 was a couple of days ago.

Wendover’s description of how complex the company structures are and why inheritance is so complicated: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oL0umpPPe-8

Another more successful operation in Rwanda and Ghana is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipline_(drone_delivery_company) delivering 1.8kg over 300km and dropped by parachute.

It was a staple of Asimov’s books that while trying to predict decisions of the robot brain, nobody in that world ever understood how they fundamentally worked.

He said that while the first few generations were programmed by humans, everything since that was programmed by the previous generation of programs.

This leads us to Asimov’s world in which nobody is even remotely capable of creating programs that violate the assumptions built into the first iteration of these systems - are we at that point now?

Was there actually anything stopping them before, other than some traffic cops with a grenade launcher, and some excavator operators frantically digging up the motorway?

Uhm, that phone was a Nokia 1110 - it could only store 100 SMS messages, didn’t really have space for these ‘memes’ you mention?

Not just that, but you might get less radiation swimming in the pool where spent nuclear fuel rods are stored than outdoors.
