>"We see a future where intelligence is autility like electricity or water and people buy it from us on a meter” Sam Altman

I always considered jokingly that I am "selling" my intelligence when I work for a company. This clarifies that my perception wasn't far off.

Even without any heavy metal staining, you would end up seeing some structures. This approach allows looking at unstained / native tissue.

Sure it makes a few things easier to execute when you have an agent running locally. But many people fear what such an agent might do under a wrong or misunderstood prompt to your local system. There is also mistrust of how it may access your data locally compared to a more controlled scenario where you specifically choose which files it has access to. So, no, “everyone” “should” not necessarily be using more CC. It depends on the tasks in hand and risks associated

Recently Indian government blocked Tik-Tok. Does anyone know if they gave a warning to the users or the app developers?

One can argue that governments should have the right to censorship when its a matter of urgency or emergency or national security (though this is debatable), does the same power lie with Facebook (or any other platform) to exercise a censorship on its users? It goes back to the big debate whether they are accountable for what gets shared on their platform.

Sure, they block most of the porn websites or mirror websites hosting copyright content from posts or private messages.

In the past there was a news about Paypal banning Dreamwidth. Not sure if its related:

"About six months after opening, PayPal -- our payment processor at the time -- demanded that we censor some of our users' content (mostly involving people talking about sex, usually fictionally, in explicit terms) that was legal and protected speech but that they felt violated their terms for using PayPal."

HN discussion on it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15099761

1. Is Facebook also blocking creation of new posts with links to Dreamwidth?

2. Are other Facebook users with posts linking to Dreamwidth also experiencing this deletion of posts?

Edit: Yes and Yes.
