I didn't know the existence of Grokpedia. From this page alone it's much more interesting than what I'd expected from an AI-generated site.


Wow. This is so biased. And it's just the first month.

> Joe Biden

> These outcomes, alongside visible signs of cognitive impairment that prompted his July 2024 decision to forgo reelection, defined a presidency criticized for prioritizing progressive spending over fiscal and security prudence.

> Donald Trump

> His first term featured economic policies such as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which lowered the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and individual rates for many brackets, contributing to pre-pandemic unemployment lows of 3.5% and stock market gains exceeding 50% on the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

I bet the people contributing to Wikipedia did not consent to this. I certainly had no idea my contributions would be used to bootstrap something like this.

Like with the hyperscalers' rip off of Open Source, it turns out that the things you give away can be weaponized against you.

I could have never imagined this outcome. Their free labor created something to use against you.

Just like those Redis and Elasticsearch commits that now fund a trillion dollar conglomerate's takeover of American journalism and media.


You consented to CC-BY-SA 3.0 (or 2.0)


Nobody dreamed of CC-BY-SA being used like this.


That's the risk of using open licenses. You don't get to restrict much.

It's ok to be outraged and to project norms or organize against it in various ways. But contractually it was consensual


... which is pretty weak sauce. And legally moot; there is no "undreamt-of" protection in Black's Law Dictionary that I'm aware of.


Edit history on each is quite interesting!

That feature of showing where an account was created was on for a bit and then turned off... it highlights that many accounts implying they are in the USA are actually not and probably not who they claim to be.

I recall that Twitter had a serious account takeover problem which reached the point that eve high profile accounts were hijacked.

Of course owners of dead accounts don't complain.

The way Elon Musk's Twitter decided to render blue checkmarks useless leads me to believe this is by design.


Like the writers that are looking for the best {pen, keyboard, paper} before they start to write... and they continue to look for the best thing to make them great writers ...


"Biocomputing could help address the skyrocketing energy demands of AI, which threatens climate emissions targets and led some tech giants to resort to nuclear power"

I'm reminded of the Battlestar Galactica episode "You Can't Go Home Again" where Starbuck repairs a crashed Cylon ship to get home. The main element she had to figure out is how the biological brain of the Cylon controlled the hardware.


"A decompilation of Duke Nukem Zero Hour for N64.

Note: To use this repository, you must already own a copy of the game."


We all now do, of course


Usually these projects only contain a copy of the source code to build the binary. You still need the game assets like the levels and sounds to play the game.
