Asus has a ton of security vulnerabilities over the years and for that reason I wouldn’t trust them

I think perhaps there is a correlation with population density as well. Wuhan is fairly dense, and the wet market that is subject to speculation is located in the most densely populated district of wuhan.

Is it possible that the animals at the wet market itself was the source? Sure. But it seems sort of coincidental to me it is also the most dense area of the city; could’ve already been spreading and this location just happened to be where a major outbreak occurred from density factors alone.

"it operates under a different paradigm"

And what paradigm is that which you decided to leave out ?

Easy there buddy, not everything needs to be a polymarket bet :-)

Thank you for this due diligence, I was just reading through the technical report and couldn’t find any references to the software stack or hardware mentioning Huawei either and came back here wondering about this comment that I had read earlier.

What a find! It's on page 106 but I didn't immediately do a control-f to find it or look at the table of contents. My gosh, all the stuff I flipped through before that... some things haven't changed (e.g. Digikey and National Instruments ads).

I’m pretty sure Linux doesn’t have a prostate, even with all the changes in the leading edge distros, and you’re commenting in the wrong post.

Exactly, it sounds like they didn't know who the girl was from photos alone; "Lucy" was just a name they gave the victim.

Great. Do you have any details on how you produced this? The "reproducible code" isn't really reproducible. The "hierarchical topic model" that you mentioned - which model was used?

Pretty sure those use to be $1999 ... but not entirely sure

I hear you. Title is an exact quote from him. A couple of other accurate direct quotes from him in there. Overall a very neutral take on him.

I'd imagine it's possible bots that have taken root on this site lately - approximately the last year possibly year and a half - seemingly to suppress what could be considered, by sentiment analysis, "negative" news of anything or anyone conservative.

Or those who feel more emboldened to downvote than in previous times on this site; possibly to its growth reaching new demographics. However it feels fairly automated though given how quickly it occurs and the frequency, and how it seemed also to coincide with this last election cycle.

Any chance of the source code behind this being open sourced?
