Whose ToS is this?

The article could be clearer, but as far as I can tell, Assad-associated officers have been killed, and those doing the killing have been arrested? If that’s correct, I’m not sure I see a structural problem here (and it’s kind of hard to dig up sympathy for those running the previous regime…), but I might be mistaken.

Others have provided better answers than mine, pointing out that the Chinese room argument only makes sense if your premise is that a “program” is qualitatively different from what goes on in a human brain/mind.

I have to say, the first paragraph of your reply does not give the impression that you want to argue in good faith…

I agree wholeheartedly. My assumption was that such behavior was simply a symptom of the relatively larger proportion of Europeans on this site, and their obvious jealousy and insecurity regarding Americans. I still believe that is the most likely explanation.

That sounds like you think all Europeans are jealous of Americans, and that they have good reason to. It comes off as troll-ish at the very least.

That just shows a fundamental misunderstanding of levels. Neither the computer nor the human understands Chinese. Both the programs do, however.

That’s quality promotional footage. Jeez

Yeah, the fires are not in question, but lack of satellites or thick cloud cover as another user suggested is probably why they’re not showing up.
