   Good question, I don't personally know. The linked article would suggest there are plenty of people working on human feedback for chatbots, but that still doesn't give us any hard numbers or any sense of how the number of people i

    Funny...I was just coming here to talk about Qt :) To be fair, as you say, Qt definitely has shortcomings and some things I don't like. If you're trying to minimize your disk space footprint, it's hard to get anything under 5

    Oh and it gets better! Galactica suggests helpfully that maybe the preservatives in the vaccines cause autism! Vaccine ingredients Vaccines contain various ingredients. The ingredients in vaccines include antigens, preservatives, adjuvants,
