The honest description of what is on my machine is this: pre-installed spyware capability, silently placed, dormant, waiting for activation.
作者使用'间谍软件'这一强烈术语来描述该功能，但该功能本身并不主动收集数据，只有在特定条件下才会被激活。这是一个情绪化的标签，而非客观描述。改进方法应避免使用带有强烈负面色彩的术语，而是客观描述该功能的实际能力和潜在风险，让读者自行判断是否构成'间谍软件'。
Notation and Labeling of Chord Scales
Usually when people are talking about code being semantically correct, they're referring to the code that accurately describes something.
Semantically correct usage of elements means that you use them for what they are meant to be used for.
It means that you're calling something what it actually is.
12 task conditions
Here they acknowledge 12 task conditions, not 9.
condition-averaged within neurons (9 data points per 691 neuron, reflecting all combinations of the 3 correct response, 3 Ericksen distractors, and 3 692 Simon distractors)
How do all combinations of 3 responses lead to only 9 data points per neuron? 3x2x2 = 12.

So where exactly might you find a GMO label if it existed? 1.GMOs or foods containing GMOS This is obvious. Actual whole GMO produce such as pest-resistant sweet corn, or disease-resistant squash would be labeled. Processed foods obviously containing these ingredients such as salsa with GM corn or trail mix with dried GM papayas would also be labeled. 2.Meat/Dairy from animals fed GMOs This is a bit trickier, and still up in the air. As Ben and Jerry’s points out on their website, eating a GMO does not make YOU a GMO. For this reason, they have advertised that their ice-cream is “GMO free” for years, even though it is made from the milk of cows fed genetically modified feed. This logic seems fair enough. After all, the gene that makes alfalfa a GMO cannot be found in a pint of Cherry Garcia. 3.Processed foods made with oil/sugar extracted from GMOs As with meat/dairy, this is a toughy. Just as the genes unique to GMOs don’t make it through a cow’s gut, they also don’t show up in high-fructose corn syrup or soybean oil. These processed ingredients are 100% identical to organic alternatives. 4.Foods produced by (or with ingredients produced by) GM microorganisms The production pipeline of some foods and food additives relies on genetically modified fungi or bacteria. Cheese is pretty much universally made using enzymes produced by genetically modified microorganisms. Genetically modified microorganisms can also produce vitamins, which can then be used to fortify cereals. This might explain why several vitamins went missing when Grape Nuts and Cheerios went GMO-free. The GM microorganisms themselves are not present in the final product, so the only difference is a decrease in vitamin A, B12, D and Riboflavin in the GMO-free version.

I think this is an incredibly important aspect of the labeling issue. Regardless of what side you're on, what goes on the label matters. It needs to be scientifically accurate, easy to understand and, perhaps most importantly, NOT misleading.
I particularly liked this point by the FDA:
“An example of a statement in food labeling that may be false or misleading could be the statement “None of the ingredients in this food is genetically engineered” on a food where some of the ingredients are incapable of being produced through genetic engineering (e.g., salt)”.
Yes! This gets me every time. Seeing "no GMO" on products for which a genetic engineered version doesn't even exist.
...Makes as much sense as saying something like, a certain brand of computer is certified to not strangle you in your sleep. Doesn't it make you wonder if there are computers out there that will strangle you? (There aren't. So why label it unnecessarily?)
