We have trained the model on tables with hierarchical column headers and with rowspan and colspan >1. So it should work fine. This is the reason we predict the table in HTML instead of markdown.

Thank you. I was rather thinking of magazine like layouts with columns of text and headers and footers on every page holding article title and page number.

How does it do with multi-column text and headers and footers?

I wonder what happened to Siri. Not a single mention anywhere?

I wonder how this relates to Mother Duck (https://motherduck.com/)? They do „DuckDB-powered data warehousing“ but predate this substantially.

Not knowing much about special-purpose chips, I would like to understand whether chips like this would give Google a significant cost advantage over the likes of Anthropic or OpenAI when offering LLM services. Is similar technology available to Google's competitors?

This looks great!

Is anyone familiar with something similar for Python in general and Django in particular?

I wonder whether the search algorithm would need (and can?) to be adjusted to respond to the increased probability of playing numbers that are hard to find with standard binary search.

Big fan of Tailscale, yet I wonder whether it wouldn’t be better to make internal services securely available over the internet (zero trust rather than castle-and-moat). On the other hand, the former might be just to expensive for smaller organisations.

Could somebody that knows both explain how Simutrans compares to (Open) Transport Tycoon Deluxe?

> Allowing punitive damages would be a major change to the foundations of German civil law.

There ARE punitive damages the airline has to pay you if they cancel or delay your flight. It's EU law. See the sibling comment.

For instance if they cancel or delay a flight over 1500 km in the EU you're entitled to 400 Euro compensation on top of cost of ticket and other expenses you had due to it.

You are correct that the provisions of EU law can be construed as punitive damages. That’s why I emphasised the German legal tradition. Also, those damages do not apply in all possible situations of cancelled flights and they do not punish withholding refunds for no reason. If the airline cancels three weeks prior and then refuses to pay, the EU law does not apply and the behaviour we would like to disincentivise is not to honour the refund claims rather than the cancellation.
