I had a VHF+UHF bands, no morse, in Denmark half a century ago. Dropped it after a few years.

Around 1990 I attended ISO/JTC1 meetings generating standards for data communication. I still recall my surprise over the heated arguments over these words between the UK and the US delegations. (I'm from Denmark). In particular 'shall' and 'should' meant different things in English and American languages. ISO's first standard, ISO 1, states that ISO Standards shall be written in English so we had to do that, US delegation too. Similarly Scott Bradner stated in RFC 2219 how American conventions should be followed for future IETF STDs.

So I'm confident that the word 'shall' has a strong meaning in English; whether it has too in American legalese I cannot tell.

Some of all this gold is still on display in Spain. Earlier this year my wife and I visited Granada in southern Spain. Vast amounts, truely impressive, of gold are exposed in its Cathedral and in the burial place of Emperor Karl (Charles/Carlos) and his wife, Isabella. Alhambra is still the #1 sight there but if you can spare the time, do visit these two places. They are co-located in central Granada.

I learned about SWI-Prolog around 1994. Amazing that it is still available & updated - even with its original name :-)

I remember admiring the intent of XSLT when it was born. And how difficult it turned out to be to write; using XML framing makes it terse/verbose/arcane, eg. when compared to the compactness of regex/subs.

It is 2025 and now we've got LLMs to write our code - that may actually be a strong argument in favor of keeping XSL(T): It is a useful browser mechanism and LLMs makes it easier to harvest.

Does anybody have experience with LLM-generated XSL(T)?

And Message Authentication Code

Calling out to some chess-playing-function would be a deviation from the pure LLM paradigm. As a medium-level chess player I have walked through some of the LLM victories (ChatGPT 3-5-turbo-instruction); I find it is not very good at winning by mate - it misses several chances of forced mate. But forced mate is what chess engines are good at - can be calculated by exhaustive search of valid moves in a given board position.

So I'm arguing that it doesn't call out - it should gotten better advice if it did.

But I remain amazed that OP does not report any illegal moves made any of by LLMs. Assuming training material includes introductory texts of chess playing and a lot of chess games in textual notation (e.g. PGN) I would expect at least occasional illegal moves since the rules are defined in terms of board positions. And board positions are a non-trivial function of the set of moves made in a game. Does an LLM silently perform a transformation of the set of moves to a board position? Can LLMs, during training, read and understand board-position diagrams of chess books?

Thank you for writing this up. I'm an 'existing free user' and blocked the same way from the dashboard.

Neat! Couldn't but ask myself why the OP should need Ruby...

I have not tried this out but https://github.com/charmbracelet/wish - a companion to soft-serve - could be helpful to you

Within the area of viscosities reciprocal seconds is an accepted standard unit

Some years ago I was wondering what the words 'There is a balm in Gilead' means. Spent hours googling, both in English and Danish (my native lang). Found Jer 8:22 "Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there?" and inferred that Jeremiah must have associated Gilead's balm with (glorified?) healing processes.

So as a test I asked this service 'what is balm in Gilead' and it returned 4 other Bible sentences. Pressed 'Summarize', which unfolded comments on the 4 sentences and a summary of

'Overall, these passages present Gilead as a contested but fertile region east of the Jordan river. It was prized territory that was given to several Israelite tribes and seen as a divine provision. The name "Gilead" means "hill of testimony" referring to its choice lands. So the metaphor of "balm in Gilead" signifies the healing, restoration, and provision God can bring even in difficult times.'

My key observations:

1) The overall summary highly matches my own interpretations

2) Jer 8:22 was not referred - possibly because it does not define the concept, it just refers to its meaning

3) Inferring the summary from the 4 sentences is not easy but apparently AI can do so

I have a question on the generation of the overall summary: Is it based on on the 4 sentences only or does it include other biblical text behind the scenes?

In those days I worked for Intel in a branch in Copenhagen, Denmark. Doing Ethernet stuff, pretty far from the CPU dev and fab running the company. Incidentally Phil Zimmermann, maker of PGP, was in town, giving a lecture on privacy. I had the chance of asking him of his opinion; he reflected and said: "I think Intel has made a mistake." I agreed but didn't expect Intel mgmt to take action on this. And for a year I was right. In 2000, the serial numbers were quietly removed. Just to be re-added some years later....

Denmark is still offering boosters - in a prioritized manner. First those aged 85+, second 50+, even below that if exposed by diseases. From what is written I would expect (third) general 50- boosters to occur during winter if needed.

Right - I must have missed that

As a native Dane I can say that this translation is pretty good. What Ekstra Bladet is going to do with its recognition still has to be seen. I think that it has a point - the way vaccines have been used in DK is good but not good enough to control contamination. And this story has not been told by the authorities.
