I thought we were finally agreeing fully! My understanding of the question is “what is the difference between a third (of a pizza, say) and a half?”

1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6
1/2 = 1/3 + 1/6
a half is one sixth more than a third.

btw, I fixed my Kagi screenshot since I’d missed a word from the question (reading comprehension’s clearly not my strong point today)

Ah, you’re right - I misunderstood jbrain’s point to just be about the “relative to the original” understanding. Guess I’m no smarter than Google’s AI.

Yes, and the Google AI response is correct (and quite clear) in what it says. edit: Thanks Batman. I mean that Google’s understanding of the question is logical (although still the maths is wrong as you say (now I’ve re-read you)) and its answer explained the angle it was answering from.

However, I think the reasonable assumption for the intention behind the question is relative to a whole. I had third of a pizza, and now I have an extra sixth of a pizza. It’s subtle, but that’s the kind of thing AI falls down on.

Google’s AI seems dumber than the rest, for example here’s Kagi answering the same (using Claude):

edit: typoed question originally

Perhaps Google’s tried to make it run too cheaply - Kagi’s one doesn’t run unless you ask for it, and as a paid product it’ll have different priorities.

Vulnerable: VHD PTZ camera firmware < 6.3.40 used in PTZOptics, Multicam Systems SAS, and SMTAV Corporation devices based on Hisilicon Hi3516A V600 SoC V60, V61, and V63

It looks like they’re using AI correctly: to identify patterns in huge amounts of data.

I think they’d struggle to mention their own name more often in that article.

sweet stop

I think you mean sweet spot. Now I’m wondering if it’s a typo or an eggcorn.

My (ISO) keyboards do, under the Esc key. I guess you’re in North America (or Australia) and have an ANSI layout.

Why are you quoting a US site for a case in China?

Conversely, if the pricing is due to an error, the company can petition the court to annul the purchase contract, allowing it to refund customers without the necessity of delivering the goods.

Surely, this will apply.

There’s kroki as well, which includes Mermaid, Excalidraw, GraphViz, PlantUML, etc.

Well yeah, you need to do the computation somewhere and it’s not doing it on the server so…

Ukraine have destroyed three bridges in Kursk, which will affect Russia’s ability to get supplies to their invading forces, but they’re also over rivers where it’s fairly trivial to set up temporary bridges (unless they are destroyed by drones).

Patrick Delaney’s salute:

I know News Corp are evil, but this pic looks more mocking than heartfelt.

News was reporting yesterday that there was an arrest warrant out for Volodymyr Z in Poland but that he just popped over the border back to Ukraine.

[Truss complained that the British press wasn’t] “particularly deferential to politicians”

Why should they be? Their job should be to inform the public, not suck up to those in power.

Oh I see - yes, if the seats around the women are automatically reserved then that exploit doesn’t work.

I was thinking first would be the fake booking to find where the women were sitting, then switch browsers/clear cookies/whatever and book with the real details.

The airline’s booking process is fairly standard except for the seat map which highlights seats occupied by women with the color pink. This information is not visible to male passengers, according to the airline, CNBC reported.

What’s to stop a man from claiming to be female to see the map of where women are sitting, and then booking an adjacent seat themselves?

Oh, that’s LAN - I thought you’d put ian and I was trying to get the joke. Stupid sans-serif fonts.

Where are you getting that from? The article you’re commenting on say otherwise:

France’s state railways company SNCF called the overnight disruption a “massive attack aimed at paralyzing the high-speed line network.”

They were focused on the TGV high speed train network which covers the whole of France, and which is particularly busy at this time of year.

Eurostar’s Brussels-Lille-London trains are not affected.
