It doesn't matter if he really has an iPhone or not. It's just that what he wanted in order for Microsoft not to have responsibility is basically to lock down Windows as if it was iOS.

Can't believe you get downvoted for saying that. No worries though as the haters will all be proven wrong eventually.

You should all see the story about the invention blue LEDs. No one believed that it could work except some japanese guy (Shuji Nakamura) who kept working on it despite his company telling him to stop. No one believed it could ever be solved despite being so close. He solved it and the rewards were astronomical.

This could very well be another case of being so close to a breakthrough. Two years since GPT-3 came out is nothing. If you were paying any sort of attention you would see there are promising papers coming out almost every week. It's clear there is a lot we don't know about training neural nets effectively. Our own brains are the proof of that.

XMPP servers and clients have different standards. Some supports audio/video calls

You're overthinking it. Select a few of the popular ones and be done with it

It also has the additional property of being able to easily transfer that asserted value anywhere in the world, free of censorship.

Governments guarantee that their currency is worth something in various ways. Bitcoin is backed by the energy usage it costs to mine

Make sure you understand volume block size before you start using it. It has a big impact on compression, performance and even disk utilization. In certain configurations you may be surprised to find out as much as 25% of your disk space (in addition to parity) is effectively gone and it is untrivial to change the block size after the fact.

Great, so now we have even more fragmentation. Good job BlueSky!
