en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohrpost_in_Berlin
  • The East Berlin end date is off: reliable histories place the regular/public East Berlin Rohrpost shutdown in 1976, not 1977.
  • At the 1876 opening, Berlin Rohrpost letters were limited to 10 g and about 12.5 × 8 cm, not 20 g and 14 × 9 cm.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentley_Arnage
  • This weight matches the long-wheelbase Arnage RL, not the standard Arnage R. Contemporary specs list the Arnage R at 5,699 lb (2,585 kg), with the RL heavier at about 5,854 lb.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentley_Continental_R
  • Bentley says the Continental R was the first Bentley with its own unique body since the 1952 R-Type Continental, not since the 1965 S3 Continental.
  • Bentley’s own heritage material says the first-generation Azure used the Continental R platform through 2003, and that an Azure Mulliner Final Series was the final model off the line.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentley_Azure
  • Bentley’s own Heritage material says the first-generation Azure totaled 1,311 cars, not 1,403. The larger figure appears to come from Pininfarina body-production records rather than completed Azure production.
  • Contemporary reports say Bentley showed the Grand Convertible by Mulliner at a private customer event at Bentley Emirates in Dubai, not as a Dubai Motor Show unveiling. The National also reported before the show that Bentley would not be represented there.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolls-Royce_Silver_Seraph
  • This reverses how the rights actually worked. BMW had already acquired the automotive rights to the Rolls-Royce name in 1998 and then licensed Volkswagen to use them until 31 December 2002; Volkswagen did not 'hand them over' to BMW in late 2002.
  • This overstates the Silver Spur's end date. While the Silver Spirit ended in 1997, Silver Spur models were still built after that, including 1998 examples, and specialist and auction records place Silver Spur production through 2000.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentley_Mulsanne_(2010)
  • The signature used on the W.O. Edition is W.O. Bentley’s signature, not the signature of the car’s owner.
  • Bentley says a Mulsanne took over 400 hours to build, not about 200 hours.
  • The 521,111 m² figure is for Bentley’s entire Pyms Lane site, not the Mulsanne assembly area.

  • Esto ya no es correcto: hoy sí existen guías clínicas formales de organismos como la OMS, NICE y CDC para evaluar y diagnosticar el COVID persistente.
  • Esto está desactualizado: las reinfecciones por SARS‑CoV‑2 ya no se consideran de frecuencia muy baja y pueden ocurrir múltiples veces.

  • That overstates the policies of several companies named in the post. Publicly available Meta, Google, and Microsoft policies allow employees to speak in their own personal voice; they restrict speaking on the company’s behalf without authorization, not all public speech unless comms approves it.

  • Lewis's modal work began in 1912, but standard histories place the first modal systems in 1918, not 1912.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trout_Mask_Replica
  • Not all of the album’s instrumental material came from one six-hour session. Sources say only about 20 songs were cut then, while other tracks came from an earlier 1968 session and recordings made at the house.
  • The 2003 Rolling Stone rank is misstated. Rolling Stone later identified Trout Mask Replica as No. 58 on its 2003 500 Greatest Albums list, not No. 59.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers
  • This all-time ranking is outdated. Current box-office records place 2007's Transformers much lower than 45th worldwide.
  • This date is wrong. Dreamwave's Transformers comics began in 2002, which is in the 21st century, not the 20th.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empathising%E2%80%93systemising_theory
  • This misstates the study’s sample size. The paper drew cases from a cohort of 19,677 stored samples, but the hormone analysis itself used 128 autism cases and 217 controls, not 19,677 amniotic-fluid samples.
  • This misattributes the ‘Silicon Valley’ claim to Baron-Cohen’s own California research. Baron-Cohen wrote that the California claim was anecdotal and explicitly said no detailed systematic study had yet been done there; the study his team actually conducted was in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
  • The 45% figure is not a diagnosis rate. The cited study found that 45% of children with agenesis of the corpus callosum exceeded an autism screening cutoff, and explicitly noted that an autism-spectrum diagnosis was not verified by clinical assessment or observation.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sympathy
  • This reverses Brené Brown’s empathy/sympathy distinction. Brown treats perspective-taking as part of empathy, while she describes sympathy as feeling sorry for someone from a distance.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_neuron
  • This backdates the human finding. The 2002 study by Kohler, Keysers and colleagues reported auditory mirror neurons in monkeys; evidence for a human auditory mirror system was published later, in 2006.
  • This is outdated. Published macaque studies have since recorded mirror-type neurons in medial/mesial premotor regions including the pre-supplementary motor area (F6), so it is no longer true that no one has looked there in monkeys.

  • OpenAI’s own postmortem says some employees noticed message-board activity in late May, weeks before the July disclosure. What was missed was the significance and escalation, not human awareness altogether.
  • The congressman’s first name is Nathaniel Moran, not “Nathanial” Moran.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_Leung
  • This is outdated. University of Waterloo’s current pages list Leung as a professor/faculty member, and say her University Research Chair term ran from 2015 to 2022.
  • The 2005 chair was not a single 10-year Tier II award. Tier II Canada Research Chairs are five-year appointments renewable once, and the government’s 2005 disclosure lists Leung’s award as $500,000 over 5 years.
