  • Hacker News does not define karma as an exact upvotes-minus-downvotes total. Its official FAQ says that is only a rough approximation, because some votes are dropped by anti-abuse software.

  • 把漢兒言語說成北方各民族的「共同母語」不準確。學術資料通常把它描述為母語各異族群之間使用的共同語/通用語,而不是所有這些族群共同的母語。

  • That is too broad: in the U.S., many third-party-held records can be obtained with a subpoena or court order rather than a warrant, and some sensitive data can also be purchased from brokers.

  • This "currently supports" list is outdated. Snyk's current documentation lists additional Snyk Code languages beyond these, including COBOL, Dart and Flutter, Groovy, Rust, and Objective-C.

  • This misidentifies where the quoted passage appears in Rosenberg’s book. The passage begins Chapter 2, “Communication That Blocks Compassion,” not the chapter “Receiving Empathically” or a chapter on how to communicate empathetically.

  • This is incorrect: OpenAI had already launched its API in June 2020. March 1, 2023 was the launch of the GPT-3.5 Turbo/"ChatGPT" API, not the first OpenAI API.
  • This overstates the role of job switching in early-career wage growth. Sources discussing Topel and Ward put the figure at roughly one-third, not 60 percent.

  • This sentence states the wrong scaling rule for return volatility. Standard deviation over longer horizons scales with the square root of time, so the benchmark is 1/√N, not 1/N.

  • This overstates the situation. Both Anthropic and OpenAI explicitly include chemical weapons in their published safety frameworks and mitigation language, even if Anthropic says it prioritizes biological risks.

  • This mixes a future planned investment total with the wrong ownership figure. SoftBank said $64.6B was the expected cumulative total only after later 2026 closings, and that amount would be about 13% ownership, not 11.75%.

  • Anthropic’s docs describe `CLAUDE.md` as startup/session context, not something injected on every turn. They say it is loaded at the start of each conversation or session, with some scoped files loading only on demand.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenyatta_University
  • This is outdated. Kenyatta University’s official site says its chancellor is Ambassador Dr. Francis K. Muthaura, who took over from Dr. Benson Wairegi in June 2024.
  • This is outdated. Kenyatta University’s official pages say Prof. John Okumu assumed office in January 2026 after Prof. Paul Wainaina completed his final term.
  • This is outdated as the chairperson of Kenyatta University Council. Kenyatta University’s official council page identifies Prof. Clara Momanyi as the current chairperson, and the university described Shem Migot Adholla as a former chairman in 2025.
  • Kenyatta University’s current official materials do not support a total of 13 campuses. Recent KU publications list the main campus plus seven outlying campuses, for a total of eight.

  • This staff count is outdated. Garissa University's own 2024–2025 procurement documents say the university has 208 staff, not 75.
  • This is no longer correct. Garissa University's official website identifies Prof. Frederick B. J. A. Ngala as the current Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Academic and Student Affairs.

  • 权威植物志将车前(Plantago asiatica)的花期记为4月至8月,而不是只在7月至8月开花。
  • 权威植物数据库显示,车前(Plantago asiatica)的原生分布不止东亚,还包括南亚、东南亚和俄罗斯远东等地区。
  • 这里把 D-galactose 误写成了“乳糖”。D-galactose 是半乳糖/半乳吡喃糖,乳糖则是由葡萄糖和半乳糖组成的双糖。

  • Gilbert White 原文并没有说“3先令只够买一支蜡烛”。他写的是:3先令可以买一磅做好的灯心草灯芯;并把这与“每晚买半便士蜡烛”的家庭作比较。

  • 这里把 Cardaria 列为十字花科的现行属名,但权威植物名录已将 Cardaria 处理为 Lepidium(独行菜属)的异名,不再接受为独立属。
  • Wasabia 已不是当前接受的十字花科属名;Kew 的现行名录把它列为 Eutrema 的异名。
  • Taphrospermum 已被权威名录并入 Eutrema,不再是当前接受的独立属。
  • Neomartinella 现已被视为 Eutrema 的异名,而非独立有效属。
  • Winklera 不再是当前接受的十字花科属名;Kew 将其列为 Lepidium 的异名。

  • 这句把 Typha orientalis 误写成了另一个物种的现行学名。权威植物分类数据库目前接受的名称仍是 Typha orientalis,而 Typha shuttleworthii 是分开接受的另一种。
  • 这里的命名作者年份写错了。权威植物命名数据库把 Typha orientalis 的正式发表年份记为 1851,而不是 1849。

  • 这句话把膜翅目的“独特性”说得过头了。膜翅目并不是全变态昆虫中唯一有产卵管的类群;更准确的说法是,它们是唯一保留了完整原始产卵管的类群之一类表述。
  • 这里把膜翅目的翅数写少了。大多数有翅的膜翅目昆虫通常是两对翅(共四翅),而不是只有两个翅膀。

  • 这句话把禾本科的典型特征说反了。禾本科叶通常由叶鞘、叶舌和叶片组成,叶鞘正是草本科的标准形态特征之一。
  • 这里把地质年代和绝对年代混在了一起。3500万年前并不属于白垩纪晚期;白垩纪晚期结束于约6600万年前。
