"Pronouns". I can see elementary schools programs saying "in 3rd grade the student should be able to analyze and understand nouns, verbs, prepositions and particles-that-can-be-used-in-place-of-nouns".

Just kidding, he's cancelling the education department, so no problem.

He doesn't need to process millions, he just needs to have a cursory look at X of them, where X is the number of people he decided upfront to fire that day, with motivations like "the email had a typo" or simply "the government doesn't need unlucky employees".

“Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right”: Meta emails unsealed

“Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right”: Meta emails unsealed

Last month, Meta admitted to torrenting a controversial large dataset known as LibGen, which includes tens of millions of pirated books. But details around the torrenting were murky until yesterday, when Meta's unredacted emails were made public for the first time. The new evidence showed that Meta torrented "at least 81.7 terabytes of data across multiple shadow libraries through the site Anna’s Archive, including at least 35.7 terabytes of data from Z-Library and LibGen," the authors' court filing said. And "Meta also previously torrented 80.6 terabytes of data from LibGen."

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models.

In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

They probably forced it open. It was not the only box they broke that night (3 different fiber boxes, all of them Fibercop).

Do I know someone at Deliveroo?

I’ve found an issue with the algo which picks the closest restaurant in a chain which is resulting in waste of time / fuel and customer service has been an absolute brick wall for 2 months.

I have a workaround but want someone to look into it.
