I didn't stop looking and followed link to the version announcement, then went to the front page of nats.io from the top left of that page. And I also still have absolutely no fucking idea what any of this is.

Lots of people here simply thinking it's a question of whether this is something you'd buy, as if the EU regulators are going to countenance this for so much as a femtosecond. They will not , and the implied quid-pro-quo of &quot

GDPR regs in fact already require exactly this, and all "consent" acquired without one has no legal basis. One or two national regulators have belatedly started to pursue it.

Idiot question: if I have access to sentence-by-sentence professionally-translated text of foreign-language-to-English in gigantic quantities, and I fed the originals as prompts and the translations as completions... ... would I be likely

It is EU law that will prevent the Commission from actually getting anywhere near implementing a project this stupid and insanely-illegal. Over in the UK, the EU can't stop the new Kakistocracy from actually doing it. I know where I&#

Being honest it's not a massive amount of loss if your entire supply is coming from the grid. But if you're generating and storing energy at home, then it's much more significant because you add the transformer's loss

(Sorry, replying to myself but by way of example I recently discovered that "old"-style UK plugs -- BS546 ones -- are still rated for DC domestic supply. So in at least one or two corners of the world this whole notion is already

Yes, it causes issues today. But tomorrow, I'm expecting that the transformer will be outside the device (as now with wall warts and most laptops) rather than inside (as with your TV). And that minority who are handy enough with tool

Look at this sideways for a second and you'll see that you just described precisely and exactly the structure and supposed-mission of every performing rights society in the world. And yet they just don't seem to have any interes

I wonder if there might be some reason for that sudden 15-year low in oil consumption in 2020. It's a mystery, for sure.

No. Singular nouns require singular verbs, in both countries.

No, they would not. Don't mistake erroneous colloquial speech for what's "correct" in written English. This is wrong, and so is the original example.

As someone who has worked as a sub (copy-editor) in the UK for many years in the past I cannot begin to describe exactly how completely incorrect this is.

I would imagine that Apple (which put money into Acorn and ARM JVs over thirty years ago and I think was the first third-party company to do so, by a very wide margin) has a much older license than anybody else.
