I don't have any direct proof that recipe sites are doing this. I only look at just how many "stories" there are, and how many recipes. There just looks like too much writing. And it too is also very formulaic. And it's

My understanding of why there's a life story copy at the top of recipes is that a recipe is not copyrightable, but a story is. And, an AI can generate a story one time relatively easy. https://lizerbramlaw.com/2015/

I see that you only attacked the data source, NIST. You didn't attack/discuss normalization of said data, which was 1/2 of what I said.

And that I think is that what we're discussing is the crossroads of science, metrology, philosophy, logic, and mathematics. What is a kilogram? Is the idea the same as the base object? Should it have a physical representation at all? W

Science and scientism tend to go hand in hand. Science has saved us from the plagues of gross superstition. Did many of those have kernels of truth? Well, sure. But how do we analyze them as to why? More superstition doesn't cut it. On

But what about the points you didn't cover? They're correct, right? /s But yeah, I considered doing debate as I thought it was about logic and truthfulness. After watching a spectacle like this locally, I noped out of it.

That would allow the thought the upper executives aren't infallible. An upper exec can never show vulnerability, especially to something like a business plan. And that has ripple effects if they deal with vulture capitalists as well.

For example, say someone is in the BDSM scene, and hands their lover access to a buttplug that they are wearing. The plug is tied to the phone via BT and an app. The lover can stimulate when they wish. There's intent and consent here.

Reprap. From Adrian Boyer's start, we all can have the means of production on our desk. I can start with some plastic spool, and have finished structural pieces to do what I wish. It's the first major step to a replicator.

I'd also argue that a hash (SHA, MD5, etc) is also reversible IFF the bit length does not exceed the bitlength of the hash. It's how many a password db is cracked. A hash may have infinite unhashed representations, but if the maxl

Other areas that could be used would be like Tor and IPFS. Tor is anti-censorship but can be a SPOF. IPFS provides full identity of machine to the network (internal and external IPs), but is highly redundant and resistant to single attacks.

You might want to reevaluate that. The words you're using to describe open offices and cubicles is definitely more of an extrovert trend. Very few are 100% one or the other, but the words (isolating, social, enjoyable) show extrovert.
