en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jethro_Tull_(band)
- This is incorrect. Carnegie Hall’s own archives show multiple rock acts had played there before Jethro Tull, including the Rolling Stones in 1964, and Carnegie Hall records many rock events before Tull’s November 4, 1970 appearance.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_problem
- This misstates the term’s origin. The phrase “wicked problem” was already being used in 1967, when C. West Churchman reported that Horst Rittel had suggested it in a recent seminar; Melvin Webber later coauthored the 1973 paper that formalized the concept.

- This overstates how humane those methods are. Veterinary and welfare guidance says cervical dislocation and decapitation do not reliably cause immediate unconsciousness, and decapitation can leave brain activity for up to about 30 seconds.
- Commercial poultry scald tanks are hot, but not near boiling. Extension guidance puts chicken scald water roughly in the 125–160°F range, far below water’s 212°F boiling point.

- Anthropic’s own follow-up materials say post-training was improving alignment, not merely failing to help. Their May 8, 2026 research post says alignment improved in the baseline run and continued improving during RL post-training.

- Das ist überholt: Osmoderma barnabita wird heute als eigene Art anerkannt und ist aus Mitteleuropa, einschließlich Deutschland, belegt.
- Auch das ist veraltet: In der Schweiz gibt es neuere Nachweise nicht nur bei Solothurn, sondern auch in Genf und weiteren Kantonen.
- Die finnische Population bei Turku wird heute nicht Osmoderma eremita, sondern Osmoderma barnabita zugeordnet.

- This misstates AOC’s position. Her earlier quote was that you can’t *earn* a billion dollars, not that it’s impossible to *make* one; and in her later post she again explicitly said someone can certainly *make* a billion dollars.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottsdale,_Arizona
- This historic-house entry has both the wrong name and the wrong build year. Official Scottsdale and Arizona historical sources identify it as the Frank Titus House, built in 1892.
- Scottsdale Public Library does not have five library locations. The library's official locations page lists four total libraries: Appaloosa, Arabian, Civic Center, and Mustang.
- These Scottsdale Unified School District figures are outdated and incorrect. The district now says it has about 20,000 students across 29 physical campuses and one online high school, and employs about 3,000 people.
- This is incorrect because Arizona also has MOCA Tucson, an operating contemporary art museum in Tucson devoted exclusively to contemporary art.

- Die Leitung des Zentrums endete offenbar schon 1999, nicht erst 2000. Offizielle Seiten der Universität Münster nennen Friso Wielenga bereits seit 1999 als Direktor und zeigen den Direktorenwechsel im Jahr 1999.

- Das passt nicht zur Karlsruher Entscheidung von 1992. Diese ließ gerade offen, ob die Billigung der Formel „alle Soldaten sind potentielle Mörder“ ein Dienstvergehen sein kann; die klare Art.-5-Entscheidung zum Tucholsky-Zitat kam erst 1994.

- This conflates the Royal Military Police with its predecessors and gives the wrong date. Official histories say today’s Royal Military Police traces its origins to 1855, while Wellington’s earlier army-wide police force was the Staff Corps of Cavalry created in 1813, not in 1807.

- This confuses the NPT with the CTBT. The shift to simulation-based stewardship followed the U.S. end of explosive testing and the CTBT-era test-ban framework, not an NPT testing requirement.
- This overstates what Blue Brain achieved. The project reported simulations of parts or fragments of rat brain tissue, while its whole-brain milestone was for the mouse brain, not the rat brain.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sapphire_Rapids
- Sapphire Rapids uses Intel UPI, not Intel QPI. Intel’s own Sapphire Rapids specs list an Intel UPI speed of 16 GT/s.
- Intel’s Xeon Max documentation describes this memory as HBM2e, not “2.0e,” and says it can run in HBM-only, Flat, or Cache mode—not only as an L4 cache.
- AMD’s 8004 series is not “Genoa.” AMD identifies EPYC 9004 as Genoa, EPYC 97x4 as Bergamo, and EPYC 8004 as Siena, with up to 64 cores.
- Intel’s Xeon Max documentation specifies 64 GB of HBM2e, not HBM2a, and says that memory is configurable in HBM-only, Flat, or Cache mode.

- Aurora remained No. 2 on the TOP500 through the June 2024 list and did not drop from second place until the November 2024 list.
- Aurora reached No. 2 on the June 2024 TOP500 list, not in May 2024.
- Aurora’s storage is 230 PB, but its total memory is about 20.4 PB, not 'around 10 PB.'

- Muller's official employment history shows he continued working at Matrix Education after 2010.
- This marriage date is too late: Derek Muller publicly referred to Raquel as his wife in November 2022, and Scientific American also described her as his wife in May 2025.
- The Veritasium PFAS video did win a 2025 AAAS Kavli Gold Award, but the award was announced in November 2025, not May 2025. May 14, 2025 was the video's publication date.

- Anthropic’s own linked research does not show that blackmail-like agentic misalignment was completely eliminated overall. It reports zero or near-zero rates only on some specific evaluations, while also noting remaining misaligned behavior in other settings.
