Don't wanna be pedantic (yes I do) but after a little bit of searching, the originally presented quote seems correct (without the "and" though, it seems). Your version is mixed with a common misquote "Slowly at first, then all at once." of that quote.

Tangentially reminds me of Richard Feynman's Cataclysm Sentence.

If, in some cataclysm, all of scientific knowledge were to be destroyed, and only one sentence was passed on to the next generation of creatures, what statement would contain the most information in the fewest words?

Even without discard value. Just the threat of throwing a surplus land to turn it into a 4/4 at instant speed lategame can strongly influence a game.

Sure. You have to solve it from inside out:

  • not()....See comment below for this one, I was tricked ~~is a base function that negates what's inside (turning True to False and vice versa) giving it no parameter returns "True" (because no parameter counts as False)~~
  • str(x) turns x into a string, in this case it turns the boolean True into the text string 'True'
  • min(x) returns the minimal element of an iterable. In this case the character 'T' because capital letters come before non-capital letters, otherwise it would return 'e' (I'm not entirely sure if it uses unicode, ascii or something else to compare characters, but usually capitals have a lower value than non-capitals and otherwise in alphabetical order ascending)
  • ord(x) returns the unicode number of x, in this case turning 'T' into the integer 84
  • range(x) creates an iterable from 0 to x (non-inclusive), in this case you can think of it as the list [0, 1, 2, ....82, 83] (it's technically an object of type range but details...)
  • sum(x) sums up all elements of a list, summing all numbers between 0 and 84 (non-inclusive) is 3486
  • chr(x) is the inverse of ord(x) and returns the character at position x, which, you guessed it, is 'ඞ' at position 3486.

The huge coincidental part is that ඞ lies at a position that can be reached by a cumulative sum of integers between 0 and a given integer. From there on it's only a question of finding a way to feed that integer into chr(sum(range(x)))

From experience with the beta and memory, your wife (and you) will be able to choose which version to play. Either yours with a ton of DLC or hers with none. You should both be able to use the version with all DLC, but not at the same time.

It's been a while since we tested this though so things might have changed, including my memory...

If you wanna see a language model (almost) exclusively trained on 4chan, here you go.

Presumably. Wouldn't take much to fake that though.

after leaving can’t join another for a year

Can you fix this? There was enough misinformation floating around about this already when this feature went into beta.

Adults can leave a family at any time, however, they will need to wait 1 year from when they joined the previous family to create or join a new family.

it should say something like: "After joining, can't join another for a year"

Despite all that, there was the Warlock who Ninja'd the Sword dropping in Naxx on the final day. Fun times. Now that we're slowly approaching Classic MoP we'll finally see if the masterplan worked out too.

That data is also publicly available (of course), so a model could be trained on it. I'd love to say I'd doubt Google/YouTube would ever do that, but at this point nothing would surprise me.

Usually, if there's a scam, someone's making money off it. This is them. They want to keep making money.

I trained the generative models all from scratch. Pretrained models are not that helpful when it's important to accurately capture very domain specific features.

One of the classifiers I tried was based on zoobot with a custom head. Assuming the publications around zoobot are truthful, it was trained exclusively on similar data from a multitude of different sky surveys.
