Perhaps a good defense, but the target of the article didn't get into an internet argument with anyone, and he's still been targeted. Have to stay off the internet entirely.

Well, the article is pretty long already, and the author says he prefers Orwell's nonfiction work. It's not like he ignored Orwell's youth as a Burmese policeman in the article. E.g.: > In the early essay “A Hanging” (1931

Professional jurors wouldn't be an improvement. They will get cozy with, and biased towards, the people they see and interact with on a daily basis. It completely undermines the concept of being judged by a jury of your peers if there&

#1 is wrong. Datomic Free is not open source, either. The Apache License they mention applies only to the binaries, which is confusing, if not actually misleading.

Assuming that's true, GPT is the one "distributing" in your second example, so that still applies to them (if not you).

I suspect cost/efficiency is a driving factor. Existing layered NN designs seem quite local, with fewer long-range connections than brains have. I'd bet that updating non-local weights increases memory requirements, slows down com
