<p>Not really, WhatsApp is used in Europe, Middle East and India. Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, South Korea are on Line. China Weibo I think. Even in the West the market is fragmented with Signal, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Discord, etc.</p>

<p>> the model used and the approach is extremely simplistic<p>Seems like a constant in doomsday "science": making a model that bear ressemblance to reality as much as SimCity does, run it to get the expected conclusion, then extrapolate and conclude with newsworthy title that X or Y is true in reality.</p>

<p>My theory is that in a really stressful situation the mind hyperfocuses and "processes more frames per second" to react quicker. Just like with movies this mean that replayed at normal speed the movie serms very slow, hence the long timespan memory.</p>

<p>> I don't know France<p>Then don't try to put discredit to the saying of an insider. GP is 100% right. I've been back after about ~5 years living abroad and the country is in an astonishing decline on <i>every</i> plan (educational, moral, economical, political, diplomatic, security, judicial, medical, etc. the list goes one). And most of it is stemming from the policies enforced in the last decades.</p>

<p>There're a bunch of corrupted inviduals with no counter power to keep them in check. No decisions are made for the benefit of the French people since a long time, every law passed is either to augment their power, rise taxes (already world top 1 or 2 depending on the year) or to the benefit their friends owning private companies. Of course technology freedom will suffer from this as well.</p>

<p>So quite similar to the US where oligarchs (oups, billionaires) are invited at the White House and companies provide algorithmic censorship favoring a particular political camp (obvious with Twitter before its recent purchase, YouTube actions against public free discourse on covid, Google removing pages related to a certain laptop, etc.)</p>

<p>> In the face of current hype around LLMs and 'fear of AI', calling a Random Forest Classifier 'AI' is a bit... far<p>Just because the state of art evolved doesn't mean we have to erase history of the field. This is a ML algorithm so calling it AI is perfectly in line.<p>The fear you mention is built on the lack of understanding of what ML is. Showing that some AI has "dumb" yet useful implementations can help show the limits of this category of technology.</p>

<p>Wtf is this? As a White Christian (living as both a racial and religious minority in my country of residence btw) this is extremely offensive. I have the right to assemble with other people on the identity feature I want, especially on the internet. I bet wouldn't dare to say the same kind of things about Judaism because you know exactly how racist and discriminatory it is.</p>

<p>So many fields are masquerading as science and the word is also hijacked by politicians to justify the worse abuses of power that it would be great if real science forks itself from that and come back to its roots.</p>

<p>I tried writing a sentence (我想去買東西) with iOS pinyin keyboard traditional and while I had some luck with the first two letters, it breaks on "wxq" to work again with "wxqm" and then break again. So it's definitely not as good as you market it.<p>However it could be explained by the fact predictive typing on iOS is quite poor. Often a wrong letter in a word need to be corrected and the next predicted word (and it's conjugation; I'm speaking of French and English input) is often wrong. It may not be noticeable for someone who never used another keyboard, but as a former Windows Phone user the difference is very easy to see. The WP prediction was mind blowing and I could indeed write long sentences in French just by typing a few letter and using one of the prediction candidates.</p>

<p>Please keep fighting. The automatic association here on memory safe language with Rust annoys me as well, just as the one about mixing languages on a VM and WebAssembly. Both features are available since decades on C# and the CLR, and Java and the JVM to name a few.</p>
