My apologies I wasnt aware, I just had an email in my inbox this morning alerting me to the Reddit post so decided to write up a followup article and given the interest in the topic here, wanted to post the update.
That said, i do go in to more legal woes that this creates for Google, so there is some important information in the new article and I have already passed this on to 2 State AGs I am connected to.
Another confusing one - though at the city level - is Vancouver, Washington vs. Vancouver, British Columbia. It’s been a while since I’ve been in the Pacific Northwest, but I seem to recall I-5 signage giving those two options, one north and one south. I’ve always wondered how many drivers picked the wrong one at a glance and ended up at an international border.
Edit: Once I took a Lyft/Uber in midtown Sacramento. Midtown Sacramento is on a grid where north-south streets are numbered and east-west streets are lettered. The driver wasn’t familiar with the Latin alphabet. So what would seem like the simplest structure was, in that case, inscrutable.
It largely comes down to how you define the term. Personally, I think anything that includes software (...of only tepid determinism, as we do explicitly add pseudorandomness) is not a particularly useful term.
Regardless, Dawkins seems to not have much interesting to add about the topic. A consistent theme for the last few decades, I must say.
