This is some real "There is no claw in ba sing se" stuff.

Well that didn't take long.

It probably did, but the PR stream that the public sees is a well oiled machine.

This HN post itself has 4 simultaneous announcement links; not a coincidence.

There are billions of investor money on the line if the wrong thing is said at the wrong time, it needs to be carefully crafted and staged.

I guess OpenAI's CFO didn't get the memo[0].

I've always thought the really low bandwidth support they added a few years ago was to support the french subs. It matched all the requirements of VLF/ELF communications.

When I broke a joint in my pinky a few years ago it was pretty easy to tell. Early on the range of motion was the limiting factor, and I'd move it back and forth as much as I could without any pain. After that I worked on strength in a similar way, do as much as I can with no pain. I went from "you'll never play an instrument again" to rock climbing and Viola practice.

Overall, seeing my strength and range of motion slowly get better was immensely satisfying and your body is pretty good at letting you know when you're getting close to a limit.
