Looks like it's just producing random numbers. If you remove 'the' and only say 'sum numbers above', it'll result in 10. You can also do the same with no numbers anywhere in the sheet and the result will still be 15 and 10.

You can even tell it to 'sum the numbers from A1, A2, A3' and it'll yet again produce 15. As per the documentation, you should give it specific cells as context, e.g., 'COPILOT("sum the numbers", A1:A3)'. I can confirm this works, though I'm not sure why as the prompt sent to the model should be the exact same.

It's easier to resell the phone later on if you have the original box. Why throw it away if it takes up practically no free space?

It was referring to not being able to call emergency services, which may realistically lead to your death. It's a fairly unlikely scenario, but not a completely crazy one. It's just a highlight in a sea of issues. Or at least that's how it looks to me, as I've never used a Fairphone. Some people say they work flawlessly.

Not necessarily. This is a very simplified, decolorized version of events.

Most voters in the US can't even name and shallowly describe any given policy of their chosen candidate. Americans voted for Trump, because they liked one or two things they heard him say. Or simply because they only knew one of the names on the form.

True. That is indeed very interesting. Although not limited to comic books. You can spot a similar pattern in movies too. Somehow, in America, the films to become the most popular (or most successful) mostly featured themes portraying powerful people in a positive light, directly or indirectly. While in Europe this trend never really took root.

In a classic, underdeveloped autocracy, the answer would surely be blatant censorship and prosecution of authors portraying different views. However, the American mechanisms for accomplishing the same goals are considerably more complex and intricate. That is, assuming there was or still is such a mechanism, as I'm not sure we can say that definitely. Perhaps it was all just a natural process of people preferring the easier, more convenient narratives?

True, batteries are quite expensive and very much not environment-friendly when built on such a scale. Though it should be noted good solar panels last longer than 15 years. Even cheap panels can last 20 years.

This is an important point to consider. However, to me it seems somewhat separate from your previous comment.

Of course, no sane government should push for a country to rely solely on wind and solar. Ideally you have a mix of various energy sources, even potentially including some fossil fuels. Hitting that 20-30% sweetspot, as mentioned in the paper, looks to be fairly cheap and beneficial for everyone.

You can join Poland willingly or be conquered.

It's nice, but I just really like the Windows' design of this feature. Not really anything functionality-related. Honestly, I wish I could just have the file manager from Windows Vista or 7. I don't even need tabs.

Technically it will still be allowed. In reality, it will just be Play Store without a nice UI. Now question is whether or not it's enough for the European Comission to take action.

I'm sorry, but who is "everyone involved"?

Ursula von der Leyen has reiterated that the agreement on tariffs between the EU and the US was a 'conscious decision' that avoided a trade war.

Regarding the 15 per cent cap on US tariffs on a range of products - from cars to pharmaceuticals, from semiconductors to timber - the Commission leader spoke of a "good, if not perfect agreement", while recalling how tariffs are "taxes that burden consumers and businesses", increasing "costs, reduce choice and undermine the competitiveness of economies".

In conclusion, von der Leyen called for a "strong and independent" Europe, urging it to "complete the single market" and "strengthen competitiveness and sustainability".
