Coincidentally, I've just been playing with various Chat AIs. I tried asking this, which is derived from a a Rust Rustlings HashMap exercise.
Quote: Consider these lines.
England,France,4,2
France,Italy,3,1
Poland,Spain,2,0
Germany,England,2,1
Interpret "England,France,4,2" to mean England beat France by 4 goals to 2.
Calculate the total goals scored and total goals conceded for each team and display the results as a table.
I ran this through several AIs - ChatGPT, Bing Chat, Google Bard, Perplexity, YouChat, Phind.
Even though some of them generated some nice Python code they all failed more-or-less miserably. With Bing Chat I was able to coax it to the correct answer, but it took 6 attempts.
You're right, I made a typo. The total goals conceded by Germany is 1, not 2. I'm sorry for the error.😳
The correct table is:
| Team | Total goals scored | Total goals conceded |
| -- | ------------------ | -------------------- |
| England| 5 | 4 |
| France | 5 | 5 |
| Italy | 1 | 3 |
| Poland | 2 | 0 |
| Spain | 0 | 2 |
| Germany| 2 | 1 |
I hope this is the final answer. Thank you for your patience and feedback.🙏
So there's a way to go yet before AGI!

Introduction to ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs[^]
Quote: In recent .NET versions, there’s a new way to build JSON-based APIs with ASP.NET Core: Minimal APIs. I thought "Minimal APIs" have been around a while. Did a quick search in "Insider News" for "Minimal API" and found several mentions going back a few years. Maybe it's d different this time around because of "top level" ( ) statements?

If you're interested in the guts of how they work, Andrew Lock posted an excellent eight-part blog series with the gory details:

Microsoft has fixed a known issue triggering Windows Security warnings that Local Security Authority (LSA) Protection is off by removing the feature's UI from settings. Why bother fixing it, when you can just hide it?
"BleepingComputer also learned that LSA Protection is still supported, although the UI was removed from settings, and users can still manually enable/disable the security feature using the Registry or Group/MDM policies."

I can see why diverting power from the safety system to the instruments actually makes sense at this point. If not done you have a guaranteed loss of capability, so the risk management decision was to risk the remaining four instruments to keep the fifth one active. This is a good decision.

Amazing. They certainly knew how to build spaceships in those days.
Kudos to NASA and the contracting builders.
