Two Kickstarters, one with the "Projects We Love" badge from the platform itself, have raised $1M+ by promising a clamshell PC with mechanical keyboard while demo videos show a known AliExpress headless keyboard/touchscreen (no internals) running benchmarks while never showing the rear I/O suggesting hidden cabling.

How reliable is Pangram now? In the past, these types of detectors had a really high false positive rate. Is it improved?
When it flags something as high confidence, 3.1 is very reliable. Human-authored text I saw scoring ~70 with 3.0 now scores ~15. With scores above 90, the false positive rate looks to be about zero.

Your writing disagree -
"This is not <>. This is how <>."
"When <> or <>, <> is not <>. It is <>."
"That alignment is what produces the sense of recognition. I already had the shape of the idea. The model supplied a clean verbal form."
It's all LLM's. Nobody writes like this.

It's easy to be a text maximalist now we're in the LLM era, but I disagree that ideas are a separate, nonphysical realm that cannot otherwise be described.

Rather than "hurting America," Crossfire was the highest form of political debate America could suffer before retreating into info bubbles.
Does anyone have much experience with these headphones? I am looking for similar but dont like headphones pressing on my ears. Are the quietcomfort suitable for that? Is the ultra a worthy upgrade? Is there anything better on the market now? Redddit seems to suggest that Sony ANC is superior.
I chose the Sony 1000XM4 because the RTINGS graph showed the strongest cancellation in the 60Hz range. All my tormentors are in the AC-powered machine noise range.

I don't doubt these bring awful externalities, but children requiring cochlear implants due to hearing loss from a nearby datacenter?
