Interesting study but it sounds like the satellite was captured in the early 1990s, exhibited in a museum for a decade or two, and only x-rayed in 2016. I’m not sure if the defects they found can be attributed to the space environment or wear and tear from sitting in a museum.
Probably more out of caution around workplace-mandated anti-virus/spyware. I don't know if they're sophisticated enough to catch rhymes but it makes sense for general apprehension to surface.
That doesn't happen if you click on the wrong link once though. I've got the "Adult content is forbidden" Zscaler page many times at work and I didn't even get a call from HR :) Ususally miscategorised but still.
And why would they, because if you get this warning you didn't get to see porn, so it doesn't work. There is no point to keep on trying anyway.
No, Conway's Law[1] is attributed to Melvin Conway, a different computer Scientist. Also unrelated to either Lynn Conway, or Melvin Conway, is Conway's Life, which is named for John Conway[2]
When “others” (such as women and people of color) make innovative contributions in scientific and technical fields, they often “disappear” from later history and their contributions are ascribed elsewhere. This is seldom deliberate—rather, it’s a result of the accumulation of advantage by those who are expected to innovate. This article chronicles an example of such a disappearance and introduces the Conway Effect to elucidate the disappearance process.
They report a fairly large jump in accuracy across several datasets in their paper. Looks like a promising approach, basically leveraging the very large context window that some recent LLMs provide to give many examples in context before an actual task is attempted.
The interesting thing is that the original chip inside the N64 was created by Silicon Graphics and was called Project Reality, and it was originally created to pursue consumer VR before that whole industry blew up in the 90s and it was made to power a 3D console instead.

Got to play with the N64 at the "soft" launch at SIGGRAPH '96. It was pretty mind-blowing.
But even more mind-blowing was the SGI booth where they had an Onyx running a VR demo where the user was building downtown New Orleans in legos. Based on that, our shop actually found quite a few customers willing to pay for VRML development, of all things.
