"Published in 2021 using a pen name composed of his initials, Brigadier General YS" - Really? Misdirection?

Curious to hear the reasoning behind using the US flag for English, given there's a country called England.

Exactly - robotic human, or human robot.

I experienced this for the first time a couple of weeks ago - the uncanny valley of conversation. Some customer service bots do so little they're nothing more than a serial form, one textbox at a time. But My most recent encounter -

Sometimes I suspect I'm caught in a loop, and just abandon.

I can't say that I agree with you in the slightest.

But their point stands, doesn't it? I don't use these tools, but often see news about how they're trained to give highly curated results. You took their example literally, but I think you know what they're talking abou

I don't understand these instances of using ML to return search results. DDG, returns results; ML returns results, possibly with hallucination. Even without the hallucination what's the point? I find the results I need from a s

I don't know that you're a terrible person, but I'd say you have a characteristic I'll leave others to identify, because what you write sounds like you consider emotional reactions to be prescribed enactments rather than

I came here to see what the 60 somethings have to say - the comments are from 30 somethings. The 30 somethings feeling old are in for a ride.

You didn't write that.

More melodrama.

An absurd exaggeration. Does a hot toddy each night make one a functional alcoholic? Of course not.

You're being melodramatic; suggesting people cycle in a city is dangerous. Drinking is a perfectly normal social practice in which countless responsible adults partake. As far as purpose goes, I see no reason to think we have purpose

If drinking leaves you in a mental fog I would suggest it's not the fact that you're drinking daily but rather the quantity you're drinking. I've been almost teetotal for a few years for no deliberate reason, but before

Except for the Surface Laptop 3; has been 3:2 since 2019, before Dell.

I would say it's naive of them to think they wouldn't be called out.

One of the reasons people are able to roll their eyes at climate change is the politicians who show no evidence of practising what they preach, so the conclusion is that they're lying, which is not out of character.

I like the idea, but the queries seem to be longer than the shell commands, so the only advantage is not having to know the shell commands, and I'm not convinced you want people who don't know the system mucking about on the syste

"a summary of my experience with the language over 6 months " -- I was only able to use it for a week around Christmas before hitting compiler bugs. I like the look of it, but I can't currently use it.

That might be true in a single instance, but when it's across society across multiple countries, with deliberate clearly stated efforts in some cases, then that suggestion falls apart.

I was thinking of young children.

I'm curious to know what people are going to be like when they've grown up in a world of things that are not comprehensible. Eg, I grew up easily understanding how films were made, but I wonder how a child's character will d

I don't see that the suppression of thoughts in these comments is any better than the claims against twitter.

I think "Intelligence" was used in the name at a time when spying was done on foreign countries. If the spying is now done on the domestic general public it seems we should change the name to something more appropriate.

Flee from intruders, with your family? Just pull the trigger and be done.
