They won the prize for an AI they made in the early 2000s.

I didn’t say it was finished. I said people had won a Nobel prize for having done it. It takes decades to win a Nobel prize. My point was that it had been done years and years ago, not recently.

Watson beat Ken Jennings over a decade ago. Protein folding was already done too, the people who did it even won a Nobel prize for it a couple years ago.

LLMs being the most visible part of AI after over 75 years of AI, isn’t because they’re the biggest or latest or greatest or whatever, it’s marketing. Plain and simple marketing.

When cable TV first came out it didn’t have ads because you were paying for the service. When Sirius satellite radio came out it didn’t have ads because you were paying for the service. When Netflix streaming came…

Adding ads to YouTube was always the plan.

I had a book once that had a full color spread for the movie in the middle of the book. Obviously this was a skippable ad, but still, it’s inescapable.

Sure, but my point was more they still currently sell devices with less than 4GB of RAM so it seems reasonable to foresee people still using them in 2 1/2 years.

Last time i checked they still sell a RPi with less than 4GB of ram.

It would depend on if you were looking at it from the rising side or the setting side. It would be turned 90° and then would flip 180° as it went overhead from your perspective.

I can only speak for the Cherokees but as far as I know all of the tribes from the southeast including the Mvskoke (Creek) used cane as a building and crafting material. These tribes also traded these objects and materials worldwide. This is why traditional Cherokee dress from the early 19th century includes a turban and kurta. (See picture of Sequoyah.)

I hate to break it to you but XP-7 only existed the way it did because Microsoft was under an injunction preventing them from bundling services with the OS. They actually intended to have Microsoft accounts (then called .Net Passports) tied to activation in XP.

I often find that due to where I grew up I learned about things, like the Tulsa race massacre for instance, that others didn’t. In this case, the cultural center run by my tribal government regularly has demonstrations on how my tribe used river cane. Including for things like basket weaving, blow guns, flutes, and even sticks for an early version of what would eventually become lacrosse.

Where I grew up, giant river cane specifically is being cultivated and reintroduced for Native purposes and is now not totally uncommon to find near the local rivers and streams. I don’t know how to tell them apart, but it’s entirely possible that that’s what’s near you too depend depending on where you are.

No? I care about accurate representations of Native American environments. My comment was specifically directed at your comment, not the entire thread.

I honestly think there’s no way to know if there’s really more trees now than there was. But I kind of doubt it, unless like you said, we’re specifically counting saplings on farms versus old growth forests.

Two things:

Native peoples very much built buildings.

Lots of where towns are now in the south and in the plains weren’t prairie as is commonly thought, they were lowlands populated with bamboo.

I did, but I grew up in a town of 13,000 people with the school less than half a mile away. Most places in the US are too car centric and the schools too far away for kids to walk.

Are they parked or waiting to pick up kids from school? There is a lot of entitlement in a school pick up line. One driveway in my neighborhood has to have signs saying don’t block the driveway.

It’s the opposite for me. I live in a place that gets fairly humid during different times of the year so cassettes don’t often make it If they were left in a car or a garage or something similar. Whereas most of the CDs that survived my teenage years still work.

There was a similar incident where they found a sailor on one US Navy ship had their own Starlink terminal because they were broadcasting an SSID. At the end of the day, you can’t fix stupid.

Seriously, stop being a troll. I’m done with this conversation. Not one time have I used the word violation.

Believe it or not I pay attention to usernames. I was talking about the link you just posted that mentions the liability assumed by the signers of the BAA.

Maybe read it again? My job requires me to be HIPAA and FERPA certified, I am confident in my interpretation of the situation.
