It's a Windows Subsystem that is responsible For (Running) Linux. Yes, everyone thinks it should have been called Linux Subsystem for Windows.

I mean the specific issue about the binary blobs. Something that might set off alarm bells for you or a security-focused group may not do so for some dude working on a passion project in his free time.

Maybe they weren't working on it.

Software to create bootable usb drives. It's handy, you just copy ISOs into the drive and pick which one to boot into instead of overwriting the drive with a single ISO.

I thought at first the point was that murders had gone down because they were suddenly technically legal. The inverted scale thing is worse

The GPT architecture is well understood, the part that is hard to explain is the way information is encoded in the trained model's parameters. It's not magic, it's just a highly opaque encoding.

If "AI art is kinda bad" is part of the argument against AI art, it will only be used against us when AI art isn't that bad anymore.

If the host were to pick a door randomly, there would be 6 equally likely possibilities.

First, you pick either Goat 1, Goat 2, or Car. In the first case (1/3 chance), the host picks either Goat 2 or Car. In the second (1/3 chance), the host picks either Goat 1 or Car. In the last (1/3 chance), the host picks either Goat 1 or Goat 2.

Out of these 6 possibilities, two of them result in the host revealing a car, which would end the game early. Eliminating those two possibilities, so the host always reveals a goat, leaves 4 possibilities. This is the "new information" that is used by the host.

In the first case (1/3 chance), switching gives you the car. In the second case (1/3 chance), switching gives you the car. In the last case (1/3 chance), switching gives you a goat.

It's a different situation, as a dev I'd happily bet my life on this assumption.

Dropping support for that stuff means breaking 95% of the websites people currently use. It's a non-starter, it cannot ever happen, even if you think it would be for the best.

You pretty much just grab it and do whatever you want from there

Math builds up so much context that it's hard to avoid the use of shorthand and reused names for things. Every math book and paper will start with definitions. So it's not really on you for not recognizing it here
