You don't have to "revive" the device in order to use it . The problem was: out-of-sync device clock prevented software updates which in turn prevented cloud syncing. You don't nee…

OCR has definitely not "been solved long time ago", what are you talking about? In your opinion, what is SOTA here?

If the seahorse emoji is introduced, we will have to train new foundation models. The costs connected to the introduction of the seahorse emoji will be in the billions.

They flare to quickly burn off excess gases as a safety mechanism rather than anything else. Venting gas into the air would be much worse.

Well, the guitar has a finite number of strings and each string is partition into a finite number of frets. It's definitely not more than, say, 30^6 ~ 729 million. That said, commo…

Yes, but it seems strange to claim that i^i isn't anything . That just completely ignores what's interesting, namely that i(π/2 + 2πk) is real for all k ∈ Z .

Is your argument that complex powers isn't anything ?
