That's Google Registry.

There isn't one.

> Due to these SSL requirements, domain forwarding isnt supported. That's just a limitation on some registrar. Domain forwarding absolutely does work on .app; you simply need to configure an SSL certificate on the web server servin

It's materially significant information being made public. Of course it'll be released first in a press release.

Google Registry is unaffected so far.

It's not a bonus, you're paying for that extra year. The way domain transfers work is, they're not free; you pay for a year of renewal as part of them.

The product isn't being sold, just the domain names. And you can't exactly just delete millions of domain names, it'd be an ICANN contract violation (as well as just being a horrible idea and causing endless amounts of harm

They've given months of notice! The transfer process is gonna take awhile and you don't have to scramble to do anything this weekend.

This is just the -re vs -er difference in English spelling between British English and American English, dating back to Webster's reforms in the late 1700s. https://www.learnenglish.de/spelling/spellingrevser.html

This seems like it would be a violation of the registry's/ICANN's contract. Do you have more info on this?

Use just a little bit more cynicism and the actual reasoning becomes clear. Car dealership owners are one of the most reliable Republican constituencies. They make outrageous amounts of money through government-mandated rent-seeking and do

They can't. The registration expiration date is managed at the registry (and they've already paid the registry for all of those years).

In the US we don't really use the word tonne. We might say metric ton though. Use that a bunch in the same context and it just gets shortened to ton. Admittedly megagram is a better word, as it's not overloaded.

Absolutely a false blanket statement, especially if someone is trying to make a tabula rasa AI that can invent its own language. Far from being punished for it, this would be the AI's reward function!

by CydeWeys 3y ago
Whatever semantic game you want to play here isn't relevant; the point is it's something humans can do that AIs cannot.
466.
by CydeWeys 3y ago
Keep playing it back through history and you'll find the first language invented by people. There is no equivalent accomplishment for AI.

Hudson Yards in NYC is nicer, but still nothing I've seen in the US tops the best urban malls I've seen in Asia. They're truly on another level.

Humanity invented language though. LLMs did not; they're merely parroting our language back to us.
469.
by CydeWeys 3y ago
The LLMs that are doing this are trained on trillions of examples of human language. This is not remotely a counterexample. Now if an LLM can invent a new full language from scratch, without any training data of existing languages (like how

by CydeWeys 3y ago
You're missing the point though, which is that that LLM was already trained on trillions of examples of human languages. Once it already knows many languages, inventing one more isn't hard. (Though I don't think it's act

Why are you talking about suburban malls in LA? That's not what this discussion is about.
472.
by CydeWeys 3y ago
It's entirely possible that making AlphaGo teach itself with no training examples is much, much easier than doing so for an LLM. Not all problems in AI have the same hardness!

by CydeWeys 3y ago
You've got a huge chicken and egg problem here that you haven't resolved.
474.
by CydeWeys 3y ago
Humans invented English, and every other human language. Not one single human, and not in a single lifetime, but yes, we did it. LLMs are not doing this.

> The fact that you can replicate coherent text from probabilistic analysis and modeling of a very large corpus does not mean that humans acquire and generate language the same way. Also, the LLMs are cheating! They learned from us. It

Many urban malls have no parking whatsoever. You get there by transit or walking. I think you're mistaking "mall" for "strip mall".

by CydeWeys 3y ago
Malls in dense cities are great, actually. Asia is packed full of them and the malls are packed full of people.

> We spent a significant amount of time on Google's registry software and discovered an endpoint that we believe are not supposed to be accessed without authentication Can you send me info on this to mcilwain@google.com ? Thanks.

Because there are Federal highways in the impacted zone.

There are buses running the transverses. I think this map only does subway. Check Google Maps transit directions and you'll see.
