It stands for Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory!

The black holes are so big and fast when they spiral in and merge that they literally create waves in spacetime which change the length of things by a tiny amount as they pass by us and LIGO is able to measure when the two arms of it change length by nanometers and that's where we got the signal.

There's also The Event Horizon Telescope which made radio images of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. We haven't been able to catch a merger with this though.

Black holes merge. It doesn't matter what size they are. It's not that the bigger one eats the smaller one they just merge.

Because when whatever company gets a data breach I don't want my data in the list.

With bitwarden If your server goes down then all your devices still have a local copy of your database you just can't add new passwords until the server is back up.

The original author made an incredible hit and everyone got so jealous that they bullied him off the internet. Really sad story.

Now this crappy wannabe group buys the trademark years later and thinks they can fool people?

Only the GPU and primarily the vram matters for LLMs. So this wouldn't help at all.

One of these things is not like the others. Falcon 9 is the most successful and impressive rocket ever built.

It's meaningless bullshit if they think the AI companies give a shit about copyright

Even moreso: When you post online you typically give the website a license to distribute the content in the terms and conditions. That's all the license they need, it doesn't matter what you say in the comments.

Who cares how well the stock market is doing if we all got mass fired to make it happen

The data is already public, that's how ActivityPub works
