> And gemma downloads also can be from auto CI pipelines etc. Nothing concrete

Thank you for adding some clarity to this. When I calculated 900 million downloads divided by 8.3 billion people in the world, I came with a number that made it look like about one person in 10 were downloading this model.

This is such an interesting point. Interesting as in terrifying.

Thank you for that.

I one of the reasons I liked the story was the embedded poetry. It adds a mindful stillness that creates a poignancy.

Thank You for this. I am also making some simple things and have been using bash with a CLI as the UI, but asking folks to use a CLI in this day and age is a bit much.

This idea seems like what I have been looking for.

Yes, this is my opinion as well. I did my MCSE certification on win2k and their stuff was good back then, even on that old hardware. You had to beg it to BSOD.

>In an aquifer that’s permanently collapsed, artificial recharge—pumping water forcibly back underground—is the only option, according to Shirzaei. That’s expensive and carries the risk of triggering earthquakes.

I have spent most of my life in the San Joaquin Valley and what I have been wondering about over the past few years is what is the effect removing all that water from the faults. Specifically, does this water removal cause the stresses along the faults to build making the resulting earthquakes larger?

Artifacts that survive this long are usually found in a buried context, which can, under favorable conditions, preserve them for long periods of time.

The artifact can be buried by colluvial(gravity driven), or alluvial(water driven) deposition before they have a chance to decay. For more information you can consult a geomorphologist, which I am not.

LOL, yeah I couldn't figure it out back then.

That is an old reference. I bow to the senior geek.

I don't hate writing in cursive, It's simply that I do it so badly that I use printing for almost everything except my signature. I deeply admire people who write cursive well. It is a beautiful form of communication.

I had a penmanship teacher in high school advise me to use printing because at least she could read it. I suspect that it pained her to give me that advice, but for me it was a gift.

Maybe part of it is the natural genetic variation in humans. I could read it, but it wasn't easy for me. My eyes are old too.

:) Love the early research. It seems to me that your product could be useful, particularly since those gloves are hard to put on.

We are definitely disagreeing. How much more completely can I express that without being disagreeable. I have no further use for this conversation. Go to sleep.
