Then what is it? DuckDuckGo?

I know this may be my poor English, but, ignoring the main point of the article, something I find tangentially troubling about the issue is that Gemini does not mention the possiblity of Dario dead. Like, if I were a lonely person who has lost someone and the only "thing" I can talk to is Gemini, would I have to say Dario was unalived or something?

Or is it just my bad English?

Or to lobby to make sure driving is an inalienable right. Which path are you seeing being realized in the US?

> AI coding has created a strange inversion: writing code is becoming cheap, while understanding what all that code will do together is becoming expensive

I'm pretty sure it has always been that way. Isn't that the reason for the whole field of Software Engineering?

> This is why Hebrew's alphabet near-perfectly phonetically represents the spoken language

Wasn't Hebrew dead for like 2000 years or something until the Israeli state was set up? Not hard to have a faithful alphabet when your spoken language is frozen in time. Hell, even evolving languages, like Spanish, can have somewhat phonetically accurate alphabets. As said in the other comment, English is more of an exception in that regard.

Sorry, I was just joking. Remember, it was 2019, you know, a hundred years ago, when they talked about a "mysterious virus from China. I remember the times of the swine flu, around 2009, then reading the news and thinking "meh, it will probably be something like that". Big mistake.

I love that the first thing I see in the website (at least on mobile) is "Approved for exams", as if there was some other reason one would be forced to buy those pieces of garbage.
