The irony of naming this Nietszche's Debugger when he, Nietszche, directly attacks the Socratic dialectic in the Twilight.

I was thinking Adorno's negative dialectics would be a better, if gloomy, fit; debugging is never-ending.

If you're in a positive or hopeful mood, or still a junior dev, Hegel's determinate negation offers reconciliation and an ending. This is a phase; dear junior devs you too will eventually share the Adornian resignation.

"China’s southern technology hub of Shenzhen is paving the way for the rollout of self-driving vehicles, a move that puts it at the forefront of the march to automation but is set to anger hundreds of thousands of hard-pressed taxi drivers.

The rules, which will allow the government to permit robotaxis from July 1, stand to threaten an army of taxi and ride-hailing drivers in one of China’s biggest cities, many of whom have already been displaced by automation and offshoring from the factories that powered the country’s breakneck economic growth."

"Apple has increased the price of MacBooks and iPads by about 20 per cent worldwide, one of the broadest price rises in its history, as the iPhone maker blamed memory chip shortages caused by the AI infrastructure boom."

The encyclical presented in glossed manuscript format: the historical form for presenting an authoritative textus beside a marginal glossa with commentary.

"A billion dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool?

Wannabe millionaires leafing through “The Everywhere Millionaire” may sometimes feel like they are preparing for drone warfare by studying the Battle of Waterloo. One tale of industrial espionage involves a hot-dog tycoon checking a rival’s relish before being booted out of the kitchen. A row of pale cheerleaders’ legs inspires a strategic pivot from selling sun beds to waxes. All this might look parochial compared with the civilisational struggles under way in Silicon Valley. Yet that is exactly the point. Much of the spoils of capitalism are still won by those who roll their sleeves up. That is a great thing."

"SoftBank has pledged to invest up to €75bn in a vast network of AI computing clusters in France, backing what would be Europe’s biggest data centre project as the region races to catch up with the US and China in AI infrastructure."

Press freedom is absolutely not an issue. Certainly much much better than, say, the UK's where getting arrested for a tweet is common.

Regarding DCG's case: trial of the prime suspect due in July I believe. DCG's tragic case was a one-off. Attacks on democracy are much more common and frequent in other Western countries.

Interesting approach! One question though: can the model do column detection?

The first OCR example returns output that does not detect the article columns - the bounding box is the entire first line.

"Instead, he reminded me that this was the plan all along. Like that suit and tie from 1986, we had outgrown Opec. Oil revenue was always a means to an end, he said. The goal was never to be an oil state. It was to build something more enduring — a diversified economy, a knowledge society, a country with the depth and the partnerships to thrive in whatever the world became next."
