Anon84on Experience: We found a baby on the subway – now he's our 26-year-old son

I can’t confirm or deny the Guardian story, but I do personally know someone who found a small baby in a bus in Kenya and preceded to adopt and raise her.

Anon84on Lost in translation: The linguistic challenges facing N. Korean defectors (2025)

As a wise man once said, the difference between a dialect and a language is that a language has an army and an navy

Similarly, I’ve been told that “te quiero mucho” can mean very different things depending on where you are

Anon84on Lost in translation: The linguistic challenges facing N. Korean defectors (2025)

British English is quickly becoming Americanized… (at least according to my results a few years back https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.00781v1)

Anon84on Lost in translation: The linguistic challenges facing N. Korean defectors (2025)

A few years back I analyzed how (informal, social media) written Spanish differs from place to place and (re-)discovered that the vireynados were a thing a while back :)

Anon84on The Abstraction Fallacy: Why AI can simulate but not instantiate consciousness

I would argue that, before we can begin to address whether or not AI can instantiate consciousness, we should agree on a practical, unequivocal definition of what consciousness is... and I think we're still pretty far from that milestone... Until then, this kind of argument are nothing more than pipe dreams, solipsism, and idle philosophising

Anon84on Claude's Cycles [pdf]

It goes back a bit further than that. His 1948 “Mathematical theory of communication” [1] already has (what we would now call) a Markov chain language model, page 7 onwards. AFAIK, this was based on his classified WWII work so it was probably a few years older than that

Anon84on Portugal: The First Global Empire (2015)

Are those considered colonies or territories?

Anon84on Portugal: The First Global Empire (2015)

A lot of which are Sino-Portuguese from Macau that moved (or their families moved) after Macau was returned to China...

Anon84on Portugal: The First Global Empire (2015)

Technically, also the last global empire. Macau wasn't returned to China until 1999. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handover_of_Macau
