The council with Russia in it (usurping the Ussr slot) doing this and China which supports Russia ? While the US president says its all irrelevant and Russia is a great partner ?

That leaves France and the UK. Not exactly a majority for action even IF they could do something relevant about it

The methods of the PISA study are quite controversial. It doesnt even properly control for immigration and background and the fact how its presented to pupils.

In Germany in the schools I know of, its stressed a lot how it does NOT affect anything at all, so its not actually a test on ability, but also on ability to motivate oneself to perform well in a meaningless test.

They even often make extra money for each movie. Eg some movies on Amazon are offered only dubbed for "free", if you want to listen to the original soundtrack you have to buy it.

Good luck with that. No problem with investing some money , but it has to be commercially viable first and recent Western projects all over the globe have not instilled any confidence in that.

In Germany it would also be about the video.

I cant just take a photo of a person or even car on the street and just share it online unless its clear the car or person is not the central point of the photo standing alone.

Only few exceptions on that

you should really listen to one of his full town-hall videos and reflect if anything he said could not have have been said by any of the Clintons or McCain. Then compare the few differences to what you might think of Elon Musk.

Which is why some automatic intelligence is so valuable

Interesting. But trying the demo with 27G model and simple 8+5 did not work.

Guessing there is some work to do still

``` calculate({"expression":"g"}) → error: only numbers, + - * / and parentheses are allowed error: No user query found in messages. What is 8+5? Use the calculator get_time({}) → Mon Jul 20 2026 10:36:28 GMT+0200 (Central European Summer Time) error: No user query found in messages. hi Hello! 2 tokens · 6.2 tok/s · prefill 4563 ms · confidence 87% which tools do you know about ? I'myepic know about the following are two tools I am aware of course, I currently i know about I know about me know I am aware of course I know I know I am aware of the following

calculate({"expression":" I know I am aware of know I am aware of I am aware I know I know know "}) → error: only numbers, + - * / and parentheses are allowed error: No user query found in messages.```

I would assume a human would require multiple hours for the same output though

Very interesting approach. I am having trouble with page breaks (documentation says they work, but demo pages dont) etc. For the invoicing example this would require table breaks/overflows into subsequent pages in a real application and I am currently evaluating going with model->PDF or model->DOCX

Do you have any approach in this regard that works ?

For a lot of architectures its also irrelevant. I use sync code and I use async code in my architecture. But more like independent subsystems. They are sync internally and only few places have connections to outside systems or IO. Those can be async.

I do understand though that it can be annoying for library authors, especially those that need to interact with the FS/Network etc.

You mean like you just store the Promise in a var and await after you are done with the rest (JS like) ?

An active bug from 12/12/2018 that Google and the Chromium team just dont want to fix for 'reasons'.

First time I stumbled over this bug myself I thought that will be fixed soon. When Microsoft started using Chromium I thought "for sure now they will".

Turns out there is something nefarious going on. There is no other explanation.
