This was mentioned in the "still room for improvement" section.

It is important to recognize that CICERO also sometimes generates inconsistent dialogue that can undermine its objectives. In the example below where CICERO was playing as Austria, the agent contradicts its first message asking Italy to move to Venice. While our suite of filters aims to detect these sorts of mistakes, it is not perfect.

I’m writing these in the truthful form, rather than stating the myth.

And it seems you overlooked the article. Anyone coming to the comments after reading the article can be forgiven for being confused by the reversal that happened here.

Plotly.py 5.0 5 years ago

What do people here think of plotly when compared to matplotlib? I've read through some of the api documentation and have created graphs with the latter, but don't have much experience with plotly.

Americans hate on Microsoft and so deprived themselves of the best mobile phone OS of ever.

I don't think that's a correct assessment for most Americans' opinions towards Microsoft.¹ I also don't think that's the reason Windows Phone never took off. When compared to iOS and Android, Windows Phone just didn't have the app ecosystem to compel people to buy them.

You can do something similar in chromium/chrome by using the `app` flag. I set jupyterlab to launch with

  chromium --disable-extensions --app=%s
which hides the URL bar and tabs, as well as disables any extensions. I'm sure it's possible to create a shortcut on Windows that does the same thing and place it on the desktop or what have you.

So maybe I missed it in the article, but it seems like they just tested a group of physically active students, and those who weren't. Does running have anything to do with the "functional connectivity" or is it just exercise in general? The article says we've known exercising is good for the brains of older people for some time now, the new study just tested the effects on younger people. Shouldn't the title be "exercise is good for the brains of young people too"?

There were two assertions made in tener's comment. The first was that the term "cyber" was going out of use, the second was that the term "cyber security" was increasing. My comment was referring to the first assertion.

Google trends is not good for this kind of analysis. Google trends is based on the number of searches for a particular term relative to all other searches. So you see the same trend when you look at other tech topics like Linux, programming, SSH, computer science, etc. It's not that these things are necessarily becoming less popular, just that tech oriented people were over represented on the early internet, and thus Google search. As more non tech people started googling stuff, tech topics fell in their relative importance.
