Nobody young seems to use numpads anymore. Some of my students even bring external keyboards for their laptops (which almost always do not have numpads). So far I have not seen a single external keyboard with numpad among them.

You seem to have overlooked that the ones sold _without_ OS are not included in the Linux numbers. Anybody that bought one of the Linux models wanted Linux to be installed. And hence your "argument" vanishes. You were just regurgitating the parts of the story you actually saw anyways,

You don't. "Street smarts" require some level of insight and ability to learn on the fly. LLMs cannot do either.

Musk is a really, really bad businessperson that got lucky once. He is also not very smart and not well educated. But at this tike he is part of a cabal that tries to subjugate free society and get filthy rich in the process. And they have not (yet) dropped him.

Well, I guess they will just find a way to lie and make up some fantastic success stories. Like "you only know about the terrorist ploys we did not stop" or some equally obvious crap.

Mass surveillance is only useful for establishing authoritarian states. Anybody that still thinks differently does not have a working mind. As soon as these mechanisms exist, they are used for control. It has never been different and it will not be different now.

Terrorism? Nonsense. Since when are terrorists communication in ways that mass-surveillance covers? Organized crime? Same thing.

The only reason left for new nuclear is maintaining nuclear weapons. That is the reason that, for example, the UK is so keen on that one new reactor. Or that France plans only a tiny number of new construction.

The only one not lying about this is Macron though: https://www.lemonde.fr/idees/a...

You are just pushing the usual FUD. In actual reality nuclear is _bad_ for grid stability.

Indeed. And in the name of greed and "let somebody else fix it". There is massive evidence that the people in the nuclear industry cannot be trusted.

The other problem is the excessive cost, the limited fuel, oh, and the constant lying about the cost when you take reactor decommissioning and spend fuels storage and actual risk-costs into account. Like the lie that "Nuclear cannot be insured". It can be. It just makes the real risk-costs obvious. I happen to know that the back-insurers made (secret) offers when asked back when the first commercial reactors were built. But the real risk-costs killed any possibility to pretend nuclear power is cheap, so these were kept under wraps.

Oh, and also the claim about nuclear being "carbon neutral". Not even excessively pro organizations like the World Nuclear Association are pushing that lie. Publishing skewed numbers? Yes. But claiming carbon neutral? No. (https://world-nuclear.org/information-library/energy-and-the-environment/carbon-dioxide-emissions-from-electricity).

You have a point.

No surprise they had to fire that person immediately. They have to maintain their standards that all members of government need to be incompetent and stupid, drug addiction, a history of sexual abuse, etc. a bonus.

No, actually _you_ claimed that LLMs would find "obvious" vulnerabilities. There are no "obvious" vulnerabilities in absence of a specification. And, FYI regarding your initial example, any general expectation to a web-browser, for example that it does not crash, is an informal and incomplete specification. Also note that a web-browser can almost always be made to "crash" at the current level of technology and that is not a vulnerability.

Well, in any case, let's end this, we are getting nowhere.

You seem to have forgotten how this discussion started. It started with a claim that LLMs could find "all vulnerabilities".

And no, I do not have a "very academic" view at all. This is just another one of those bogus "arguments" dumb people use. I just have a view that looks at actual facts.

I am not suggesting being naive. I was just wondering whether I missed something.
