With 30% ownership it could have been at the forefront of generative AI, which OpenAI released to the world in 2022.

Do they think openai invented the concept of generative ai, because that’s what their statement implies?

The other day it labelled the internet archive as biased towards centre-left. The internet archive - it’s like saying a stack of blank printer paper is biased. Beyond useless.

IBM argued that its patent, initially used to launch Prodigy, remains “fundamental to the efficient communication of Internet content.” Known as patent '849, that patent introduced “novel methods for presenting applications and advertisements in an interactive service that would take advantage of the computing power of each user’s personal computer (PC) and thereby reduce demand on host servers, such as those used by Prodigy,” which made it “more efficient than conventional systems.”

According to IBM’s complaint, “By harnessing the processing and storage capabilities of the user’s PC, applications could then be composed on the fly from objects stored locally on the PC, reducing reliance on Prodigy’s server and network resources.”

The jury found that Zynga infringed that patent, as well as a '719 patent designed to “improve the performance” of Internet apps by “reducing network communication delays.” That patent describes technology that improves an app’s performance by “reducing the number of required interactions between client and server,” IBM’s complaint said, and also makes it easier to develop and update apps.

All I can say is yikes.

Shame he didn’t have a scandal on that stage. They would have stopped taking about it within the day.

When Algeria is too woke for you, you should really reconsider things.

You’d figure that would take about 5 seconds for the world to win, but weirdly, it was kinda close.

At least it’s symmetrical so it won’t rock, unlike every other phone out there now, including the one I’m typing on.

Aur and pacman are 90% of why I use arch.

Also fyi to OP: never install software system-wide without your package manager. No sudo make install, no curl .. | sudo bash or whatever the readme calls for. Not because it’s unsafe, but because eventually you’re likely to end up with a broken system, and then you’ll blame your distro for it, or just Linux in general.

My desktop install is about a decade old now, and never broke because I only ever use the package manager.

Of course in your home folder anything goes.

You say that as if solving grid storage wasn’t one of the most important problems humanity faces right now.

You realise that if that were to be “fixed”, you wouldn’t end up paying the low price, Brazil would end up paying the high price? One they can’t afford because they make as much in a month as you do in a week, or worse.
