They ran out of free information on the internet. They can't steal it just like that anymore because the providers are now aware of the value they could provide and could sue the now trillion dollars companies for stealing the data.

They didn't bother when it was a non-profit sponsored by Elon Musk.

I don't understand why can't they donate the books somewhere. Even if they don't want to share the scans, why not give up the books?

So are UK and France.

Letting russians take the Crimea without any consequences in 2014 is what led the world to all of this. I dare to say, ALL of it, not just the war in Ukraine.

Letting them do even more horrible lawlessness will only lead to worse outcomes.

What is a bad idea? Defend yourself against an unprovoked military aggression?

Ukraine is the biggest country on European continent. It has the most capable military in Europe right now. And it's backed by Europe economically. Saying that Russia can't defeat them is not the insult you think it is. If Russia mobilized 1M people and went full on war in a month, they'd easily take over the Baltics, took half of Poland and bombed the F out of Germany and France. They'd lose eventually if Europe woke up from its delusions, but they definitely can take over most of Eastern Europe.

As a Ukrainian, I can tell you that it's not as bad as you imagine, and it's much worse than you think. The war is very grim and gruesome but you guys will adapt to it quickly after the initial shock. Articles like this are just trying to minimize that shock (it won't help).

They never mean it, it's a threatening tactics. Their children live in western countries and their money is there. They wouldn't allow nuking western countries just like that. ESPECIALLY if they know they attacked first. Even their own doctrine doesn't allow using nukes for anything except the direct external threat to their statehood.

Dude, you have no idea about the modern warfare. The only country Russia is actually afraid of is the USA. And nobody except probably the USA or maybe Turkey is even remotely ready for modern war. Russia is having "military operation" right now. If they start the "war".

Second of all, the "much smaller neighbour" is any European country to them. Ukraine is the biggest country on European continent if we include the occupied territory. And it's actually has the most capable armed forces military-wise. Russia took over 116k sq km of Ukraine. All three Baltic states are 175k sq km combined and they literally can't defend themselves in case USA decides to withdraw.

And last but not the least, Russia's war is irrational. It makes no sense from any rational viewpoint. So relying on common sense in this case is wrong. You need to understand russian ideology and Putin's specifically.

If it's 90 degrees Celcius, I don't think you could sit there for an hour. If it's 90 american degrees, what kind of sauna is that?

You could also have invented a wheel because it's so obvious.

There won't ever be an "all out war" of nuclear states with each other. Only via proxies.

There are no facts and reality when the questions are "Closing the borders may be necessary to preserve a country's cultural identity" and "Those who have money should be able to send it abroad without asking the government's permission", etc.

It's a matter of opinion and has nothing to do with "facts".

The bias creeps in when they pick what sources go into the dataset. The second biggest factor is RLHF because that's the point of it. All LLM providers aim to make models "safe" and safety in our modern discourse means not expressing ideas that contradict the "left ideology".

Yeah, and who picks the sources?

Most of the data on the internet is UGC, and most of the time it's VERY right-leaning. It was one of the reasons OpenAI was "afraid" to release GPT-2: because it produced results that people in Silicon Valley didn't like.

I remember when Microsoft released the first proto-LLM and users always steered to being a nazi.

this should be the top comment

> effect is that you are "serf of whomever pays your insurance"

That's why in normal countries public healthcare is a thing and it competes with the private healthcare sector, forcing it to offer relatively affordable premium services.

Or if you have to say anything about government's policies. Like covid lockdowns, for example.

Nothing a war couldn't solve

Women aren't forced to have the babies either.

Is being forced to die for motherland vs have an option not to = "mostly" consistent? You're delusional.

> You loose the war, your country gets occupied and your population suffers

My population suffers either way and losing a war to a dictatorship while being a dictatorship doesnt change much.

Ukraine doesn't have allies. If it did, they'd be at war with Russia too.

> Most people decided millennia ago that man and woman have different duties in war times

Guess what, their decisions weren't limited by war times. Men and women had different duties in family, in communities, in positions of power, etc. And they had different rights then too, btw.

> Why is it, that you have to bring up all these unrelated topics like patriarchy, privileges and nazism?

Dude, you have no idea what you're talking about.

This division of duties IS called a patriarchal system, where men lead and women follow. YOU are trying to defend it, not me.

> People tend to have an attachment to the place where they live or have been born or with the people they live with.

Is that the reason they fled the country and want to move elsewhere and are now forced to go back? Interesting logic.

> That is a privilege, no?

Yes, that is a privilege men don't have. That's inequality by definition.

> As i said, women have different responsibilities in wartime.

I don't see women being forced out back to Ukraine to their responsibilities, though. Do you?

> Or do you suggest to conscript women and send them to the front instead?

I suggest consistency. If they claim to aim for equality, that's the logical step. And not "instead" but along with men. If they think women should have different responsibilities, then please be consistent and force them to commit to their responsibilities (what are they though?).

I really don't care, cause I'm not there.

I just like it when governments try to be consistent with their policies. Equal rights? That's great, but then why men all of a sudden have more duties? If they do, they should have more privileges then. That's consistent and honest.

My suggestion is not to exclude men from the temporary protection scheme. They're as much of humans as women are and they too want to live their lives peacefully rather than fight for God knows what and being forced to die in the meat grinder like cattle. At least give that to people who managed to escape the Ukrainian concentration camp.

Or, if you decide that men have duties that women don't, let's get back to the patriarchy and give the men the privileges they fight for (or have to fight for in case of a war).

Refusing shelter to people who flee the war based on their sex (gender?) and nationality is no trolling. It's both sexist and nazist - two things the EU elites are so desperately trying to root out from their societies.

Gender equality according to Europe.

How would they know if they're trading goods produced in the settlements or in Israel?

It would help if the US didn't ignore the actual protests in Iran and haven't let the Iranian regime slaughter the protesters in hundreds or even thousands.

By your definition, there are no great military powers in the world right now.

> And where does your inside info from the Kremlin and Putin's head is coming from?

It's coming from the fact that troops approaching Kyiv were supplied with 3 day rations and full dress uniforms, ready to hold a parade in Kyiv. It's also coming from US intelligence (https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2022/russia...). And on top of that, russian propaganda literally repeated times and times again that this war will last for 3-4 days.

> Putin was raised in the KGB, I think he knows a bit how to get intel

Are you saying he planned for 5 years of war and russian economy being destroyed and also planned for over a million casualties for his army?

> underestimating the will of the ukrainians to hold their ground in the beginning of the war

There you go, you just said it yourself. That's the "insight".

Learning from the failures and being able to turn lessons into hardware/weapons modifications has *always* been a deciding factor in any conflict.

What's changed is this ability is now easily accessible.
