No, the paper says it shares a receptor with sour, not that it tastes like sour.

Just as "orange" and "purple" have receptors in common but are not perceived as the same.

The USSR and the US both backed down in Afghanistan, gaining nothing.

The US also backed down in Vietnam, gaining nothing.

Ukraine is Russia's Vietnam. They will leave Ukraine when they realize they will never gain anything by staying.

We already have a hostile response, so the golden bridge is no longer useful.

There are two separate issues here. First, can you copyright art that is completely AI-generated? The answer is no. So openAI cannot claim a copyright for its output, no matter how it was trained.

The other issue is if openAI violated a copyright. It's true that if you write a book in the style of another author, then you aren't violating copyright. And the same is true of openAI.

But that's not really what the openAI lawsuit alleges. The issue is not what it produces today, but how it was originally trained. The authors point out that in the process of training openAI, the developers illegally download their works. You can't illegally download copyrighted material, period. It doesn't matter what you do with it afterwards. And AI developers don't get a free pass.

Illegally downloading copyrighted books for pleasure reading is illegal. Illegally downloading copyrighted books for training an AI is equally illegal.

Pigs are in no danger of extinction.

And wanting to preserve natural ecosystems does not imply wanting to improve the treatment of livestock. Incidentally, the end of meat consumption would most likely lead to the extinction of multiple species of livestock.

No, it does not get you out of child support. Just as taking your spouse's last name does not get you out of debt.

I don't hope that aid is held up. It's going to Floridians in need, many of whom already hate DeSantis. And anyway it would set a terrible precedent for a President to try to punish people living in states where the governor is a political opponent.

On the other hand, I do hope that DeSantis is politically humiliated by the federal aid.

No.

A field is a value assigned at every point in space. It is not "made of waves". But if the field is perturbed by an acceleration, then the perturbation is propagated as a wave.

Simple analogy: every point in the sea has a "depth". That's like a field. If a motorboat creates a wake, the "depth" changes temporarily. You see that change as a wave.

See how easy it can be to get urinals and silence?

If turnaround time is still a problem, get your prostate checked. Help is available, even for old geezers.

Progressives saw through climate change legislation and student loan reform in the last two years.

The latter was shot down by the SCOTUS, which serves as a reminder that progressive policies can easily be undone.
