As a chemist when I read such a title I already know it’s one of those organic chemistry rule of thumb rules. All of them are named and most of them old and from text books. Such rules are useful rules for drawing stick figures of molecules. They are not the same as actual rules of physics for example.

But it’s always cool when someone finds out how to make molecular structures we thought wouldn’t work.

They also do not descriminate against evidence based on reliability.

Here is what I think is happening. Google blocks certain third party tracking cookies by default in chrome. They said theyll make a list to distinguish between what they call good and bad cookies. Also they’ll add built in tracking for Google into chrome.

With chrome being the most used browser by far they can use that to sell white list slots on their list or access to the built in tracking. I assume that’s what they are after.

Per year or per month? I’m afraid to look.

It wasn’t. It is commercial use to train and sell a programm with it and that is regulated differently than private use. The data is still 1 to 1 part of the product. In fact this instance of chatGPT being able to output training data means the data is still there unchanged.

If training AI with text is made legally independent of the license of said text then by the same logic programming code and text can no longer be protected by it at all.

It says it’s not easy. I fact it is so hard, they couldn’t even do it.

I wish there were actual consequences that matter for this type of appalling greedy behavior.

American Froot Loops have such vibrant colors. Wtf.

True but it helps get the concept across so much.

I found since people are used to app stores, I’ve had a much easier time convincing people to try out Linux. My mom even said that she always wished her windows PC had a proper app store.

So the escapist is closing down soon? Alright then.

Ah yes, sounds like a job.

The classic “let’s use the worst option because the alternative isn’t perfect” fallacy.

Well if one TV boss says so it’s gotta be true right?

South Park hit this nail on its head.

Having largely undisclosed and privately owned platforms and algorithms dictate and decide our cultural exchange, spread of news, topics of discourse and other societally important interactions is such a horrible idea. I wish this was more obvious to the public so governments would end this. It divides sociaties, poisons public discourse and skews it with racist biases and towards hatred.

Thanks for answering. That was after me first trying out Linux and before me returning to Linux.

That’s some bullshit but damn does the Linux community hold grudges like they always have.

Thanks for the reply! Amazon stuff? I’m so out of the loop it seems.

Hey I haven’t heard of this.

So this is mint based on Debian directly instead of ubuntu?

“I completely understand why someone doesn’t want to commute an hour and a half every day. Totally get it… Doesn’t mean they have to have a job here either.”

Then why hire people living 90 minutes away?

Sure limit yourself to workers living close by. But don’t give me any of that labor shortage bullshit then.
