Looks like some single quote escaping issue? I suspect the first link to be "Archduke Ferdinand VII's Bureau of Non-Demographic Surveys" and the apostrophe breaks the link.

This is excellent, congrats! FYI I manually created this page and some link markup looks malformed: https://halupedia.com/list-of-uninhabited-countries

And just like that, you find yourself implementing a compiler (specs to plan) and a virtual machine (plan to actions)!

Actually there are π(N) ~ N / ln(N) primes less than N per the Prime Number Theorem, so π(2 ^ 160) ~ 2 ^ 153.2 - this only drops 7 bits. So that does increase the odds of collision…

I came here to write that :-)

I also work at Google and I agree with the general sentiment that AI completion is not doing engineering per se, simply because writing code is just a small part of engineering. Ho…
