- This overstates Inkling’s supported input modalities. Thinking Machines says Inkling accepts text, image, and audio inputs; video appears in the training data, but is not listed as a supported input format.

- Cuba announced the release of 51 prisoners, but contemporaneous reporting said it was not known whether any of them were political prisoners.
- Reporting on April 3 said Cuba announced and began a 2,010-prisoner release; it did not show that more than 2,000 had already been released that day.
- The tanker’s destination and docking point was Matanzas, not Havana.

- This gets the history wrong: quantum error correction predates Kitaev’s toric code. QEC was already introduced in 1995–1996; the toric code is a later 1997 QEC code, not the invention of QEC itself.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum
- The Budapest Memoranda were three parallel memoranda, not four. The separate French and Chinese assurances were different documents, not a fourth Budapest memorandum.
- This misstates who signed the Budapest memoranda. The Belarus memorandum was signed by Belarus, Russia, the UK, and the US; the Ukraine memorandum was signed by Ukraine, Russia, the UK, and the US; and a parallel memorandum existed for Kazakhstan.
- Article 42(7) is a clause of the Treaty on European Union, not of a separate 'European Defence Union.' EU sources describe it as the EU’s mutual assistance clause.

- micro1’s own materials describe a $1 billion data-acquisition commitment, not “billions,” and say companies retain ownership of their data rather than micro1 buying and reselling the underlying datasets to labs.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrokey
- This blanket statement is too broad. Nitrokey’s own support and documentation say some Nitrokey products rely on closed-source secure elements or smart-card firmware.
- Nitrokey’s own announcement says the first four models were already available for order on September 1, 2015, not September 18, 2015.

- The Stratos project is described by Utah and Box Elder County materials as roughly 40,000 acres, not 400,005 acres. The hectare figure in the article is likewise off by about a factor of ten.

- Leo de Moura’s follow-up posts do not report “seven more bugs in the kernel.” His August 1 post lists six additional kernel PRs, and the later August 24 post separately breaks issues into kernel soundness bugs, runtime exploits, and other bug/hardening PRs.
- That absolute claim is contradicted by public Lean projects and by Leo de Moura’s own postmortem. There are public abstract specifications and model-based checkers for Lean, and Lean’s creator explicitly wrote that the inductive constructions are “well understood.”
