Because even with weighted probabilities, they're still probabilities . If you have "the cat sat on the", and the next possible tokens are "mat" with a probability of 90%, "floor" with a probability of 9%

Because if you don't want Google analysing what you do on the internet, of course you're going to trust a Google-supplied add-on to manage that in your interests, and not in Google's. Wat?

Linux (the kernel) doesn't claim (AFAIK) to use UTF-8. It takes NUL-terminated strings in any charset you choose (or none) and either compares them with other NUL-terminated strings, or spits them back out again later. Interpreting a s
