It's been a technical term since forever. I don't really see anything wrong with it, outside of it maybe confusing laypeople.

Undocumented is a better term for the MOS 6502 in my opinion, because these opcodes aren't invalid, they can't be trapped and they don't throw an exception.

The 6502 was reimplemented in fresh silicon several times by different manufacturers, its more "undefined" than "undocumented". Some clones use them as actual new opcodes specific to that manufacturer. Some might do what the MOS chip did. Some might throw the processor into an unrecoverable state.

This is why I'm emphasizing MOS 6502. I'm well-familiar with the most popular alternative, WDC's 65C02, where all of the undocumented opcodes execute as NOP with no changes to internal registers/flags or to memory, but with one or two harmless side effects on timing behavior.

Until a country decides to use its own dns root. Then another. Then another.

People don't have a clear concept of what life is and often don't separate life and sentience. Remember the movie Short Circuit: some military robot gains AGI then the machine and the people around it start claiming it's alive. Or in Star Trek, when Captain Kirk and his crew teleport in the middle of a forest and Spock, consulting his tricorder, promptly declares there is no life on this planet. What the writers of those shows thought life is is an open question, but it seems compatible with the idea of an LLM "coming to life".

Isn't this project ten years dead?

It looks a bit dated.

If she was a dog, we would put it down and it would be a better outcome for the dog. Because she's human she'll suffer for as long as the doctors can keep her alive.

>limited to suspects involved in terrorism, organized crime and other illegal activities punishable by five or more years in prison.

Considering how high the bar is to consider someone a suspect, anyone could become a target.

Those lines weren't meant to help beginners but as a way to order statements in the absence of an editor.

>Imagine discussing the politics of the penal system and someone butts in, "imprisoning people is bad by definition"... Ok man

And that someone would be right and that's why it should be avoided as much as possible. Because people refuse to have this discussion, imprisonment is applied at a far larger scale than necessary.

I'd expect that information to come first from arXiv or Nature. Or even maybe The Daily Mirror. Why would a governments be involved?

The research could be done using military equipment with strings attached. Alternatively, in US the researchers could be under some national security gag order by one of the agencies, no?

There are privacy issues with transmitting your print jobs to your nearby underground shopping mall.

Given how intrusive they usually behave, I'd expect the average consumer printer to phone home, too. The solution in both cases is privacy laws.

I can put my home printer in a restricted vlan and block it from phoning back to HP. No laws needed (until the mfg tries to brick the device on loss of WAN access at least).

Didn't HP already do that with their Instant Ink program?

Or until the manufacturer includes a cheap GPRS module in the hardware.
