This is exactly why I force my kids to always create accounts as 30-years old (by specifying a birth data in the 90s), to avoid as much State interference as possible. Did you know…

I am not sure why you go on the subject of English speaking world etc. Anyway, the models you tested with that query, which I am not sure why we think is a good benchmark, are loca…

Your usage of Siri today (probably on an old version of iOS) frankly has nothing to do with the article we are discussing. Sorry to say this but it is going to take time. Comparing…

Hello, the self deport is for illegal aliens. There is no concern for who is in the USA with a valid visa to do science. In fact, the longest scientists and highly qualified people…

Unlike the author, back in the day I would have preferred a 486DX50 to the DX2-66. 50MHz bus interface (including to the graphics card) instead of 33MHz

What are you talking about, why do you think that autistics are treated better in Europe, Africa, Asia? Also, people do not "hate" them, people in general hate everybody, don't pla…

Excuse me but what would be the use of zeroing a register before overwriting it?

Hello, isn’t part of what you were trying to achieve already taken care of if you use ‘volatile’ or a memory barrier? When writing Linux drivers these patterns are common. In some …
