It's not 'Artificial Intelligence'. We don't have 'Artificial Intelligence'. Everyone lambasted IBM (quite rightly) when they called Watson 'Artificial Intelligence' because it's not a thing humanity has achieved. Not even close. We have really good language models. I am getting pretty tired explaining to people 'No we need a different kind of model for that'. I'd make a T-shirt except I don't wear T-shirts. #AI #NotAI

The Land Before Google

The Dot com boom. Gold rush! Microsoft is king of the Desktop but AWOL on the web. Downloads are sooo slow. In NZ 28k was typical if you had it at all (today it's 50000k). People still buy print but mainly for the CD. Search was terrible, their home pages were ad-ridden chaotic mess. Some people used Copernic Agent to do multiple searches on Yahoo, Excite, Lycos, Altavista, Compuserve (link if you miss the old internet https://www.compuserve.com/), /1

Interesting enough article for science and history buffs alike.

What is crazy is the terf in the comments complaining that it is about 'politics'.

Well duh of course it is for most apps. k8s is not for you. I'm sorry if you have done this to yourself but it is your own fault. You should have known this from the back of the napkin you did.

The ones that do are multi-billion dollar companies, operating at massive scale with very hard problems that you do not have. And very deep pockets.

You can still use some of it. When it makes sense. It's a tech miracle.

Just when you think MAGA scum could not get anymore vile you find out that Kirsti Noem South Dakota shot a puppy because she could not train it. She brags about this in an 'autobiography' which tells you all you need to know about her. My Seal Team Six would be hella busy is all I am saying were SCOTUS to give me the green light.

Abasov v Vidit 1
Alireza v** **Gukesh 1

Lagno v Salimova 1
Goryachkina v** **Tan, Zhongyi 1
Muzychuk 1/2 v Humpy 1/2
1 Lei, Tingjie v Vaishali

Forgot to do my R11 predictions. Alireza will beat Abasov. Fabi will lose again. Nepo will get another half. Hikaru will stun Pragg.

I hope Anna gets a half but am not optimistic. Tan will win. Humpy will win and I am hoping unrealistically again that Vaishali will get a point.

OMFG is now mixing up details across different threads, causing confusing responses. This is bad within your current thread. Worse across all your threads. BUT REALLY BAD WHEN YOU DELETE ALL YOUR THREADS AND IT STILL REFERENCES THE DELETED DATA

Shocker. Let's see if I can do any better. Round 9 predictions

1/2 Vidit Gujrathi vs Hikaru Nakamura 1/2
1 Gukesh D vs R Praggnanandhaa
1/2 Alireza Firouzja vs Ian Nepomniachtchi 1/2
1/2 Nijat Abasov vs Fabiano Caruana 1/2

1 Koneru Humpy vs Kateryna Lagno
1/2 R Vaishali vs Tan Zhongyi 1/2
1 Lei Tingjie vs Nurgyul Salimova
1 Anna Muzychuk vs Aleksandra Goryachkina

In light of Fabis poor form and Nijat getting the half from Nepo, just tweaked it a bit.

An extraordinarily perverse filing in NY district by Dotard in which he rebukes the Judiciary and claims the value of Maga-Lago to be in the tens of billions, despite which no company will underwrite the relatively piffling judgement of some $500m made upon him, his having been found guilty of lying about the value of his assets depending on whether he was talking to a bank or the IRS, and contrary to all sense, /1
