I'm not a linguist, but in English it looks more "why are there only two versions of the verb" than "why we have the singular version of the verb".

In French and German (and probably other related languages), verbs have one form per "type" of pronoun. Too a lesser extent, English has that too for some verbs: I am, thou art, he/she is, we are, you are, they are.

But the "I" case is often the same as the "he/she" one, and "thou" fell out of use, leaving only two forms.

After they said "I don't know" I'd then encourage (or nudge) them to derive a solution. It gave me a very good insight into their thought process and their ability to apply their knowledge to solve an unseen problem.

For instance, students (during campus interview) would at some point reach a dead end while explaining process scheduler. However after encouraged to work it out about 70% ended up with some version of timer interrupt. It was fascinating to watch them go through the process.

You think your misunderstanding is caused by how
Pfhrea formulated their first comment. When they say "I use singular they", they meant they want people use this pronoun to refer to themselves instead of he/she, because (I assume) they are non-binary (ie. neither man or woman).

They don't expect you to use the singular "they" other than to refer to them.

And that's not too hard to remember, you already have to remember whether everyone else is a "he" or a "she"; allowing for "they" is just an extra bit.

And if you do forget it, it's ok, just don't do it on purpose.

DanBC, no one is contesting the data in outcomes. The data show a clear difference in how women and men die from suicide.

What is discussed is the cause for it. The theory smells that men are violent thus they choose violent methods and women are vain and thus choose vain methods. It just conveniently fit our gender stereotypes perfectly which should be a rather big red flag for anyone looking at social science with a critical view.

There are several contending theories. To the degree that suicide attempts are a cry for help the difference in how society react towards men and women likely impacts the method of choice. An other theory is convenience where more women get opioids prescriptions then men, while more men are involved in activities with high gun ownership.

There are more. Gender differences in mental health, differences in alcohol consumption, and difference in social support networks are all additional suspects in explaining why we see a gender difference in outcomes and methods.

One of the data point that looks a bit odd is that even if we account of difference in method, men are about 60% more likely to still die in the attempt. As far as I know this difference is still there for methods like self-poisoning which is the most "preferred" method for women. Unless we want to go into the bucket of stereotypes again and simply state that men are more competent with suicide regardless of method it seems like we should entertain the idea of other causes for gender differences.
Do you live in a large city, or somewhere out in the country, not necessarily "off the grid"? If you lived for long times in
cities, you aren't used to feel the "normal" effects of weather and night-day differences of temperature anymore. The cover of buildings and streets dampens the difference. Out in the country during clear skies you feel how cold it can get. In a city not so much. I experienced this by mistake some time ago while riding out with a bicycle for about 80km in light shorts and a sleeveless shirt assuming i could take a train back. Which was wrong. I could even feel the difference in temperature different sorts of pavement made, or if i rode between open fields with just earth, or crops, or forest to both sides of the way. Anyways, as i finally got back near home i could see the haze dome from afar, and under it it wasn't so cold anymore.

Long story short: no clouds equals cold nights. Contrails are a form of cloud and contribute a little to the aforementioned dampening effects.

From fastest to slowest: web server > database > synchronous database connection.

The bottleneck in my code is rarely the database but rather the interface that is used to it. I'm sure if you had thousands of users running high latency but low utilization queries you could reach the actual limit of the database.

99% of the performance problems I experience involve loading data from systems that don't let me access it directly and instead the data is simply dumped and my application has to load the dump. When you have to delete and reinsert 300000 rows every day and use the naive way of INSERTing the data then you will wait several minutes because the synchronous nature of SQL means that the client has to wait for a response on every statement. An easy way out is to use non-standard features like COPY or INSERT INTO x FROM unnest(...) in postgres. Except they aren't really pretty to use. Your 1 line Domain.save() suddenly turns into a 30 line query just for inserting some data. I still prefer the former for smaller datasets even if it means waiting 2 minutes on an initial import that only happens once because that can be quickly implemented and then you can simply throw the code away if you need something better.

I like poetry but it comes with 2 problems:

- it uses only pyproject.toml. Despite the current com on this format, it's not stable, it's an incomplete standard and it's not well supported by the ecosystem. Setup.cfg is a much better alternative in the mean time. In fact, just the auto include features make it better.

- there is no nice way to install it. Pip install poetry is the usual one, and it got many gotchas for beginers, which are the ones that would benefit poetry the most.

Well, there's "capable of operating from a 3000 ft runway", which is a lot of things with turboprops, making a huge number of airports available. But if you bump that number up to 5500 or 6000 ft, there's less runways available, but still a huge number of airbases and airports. Think like, the difference between an airport you can land a twin otter at versus a 737-800NG.

The published samples from the author's replicated GPT2-1.5M [1] look nothing like the ones from OpenAI's original publication. I really would have loved to see a student with no funding replicating a super large state of the art model, but unfortunately he must either have collected lower-quality data for training, or have failed to replicate every aspect of the model. Almost none of the generated samples have anything to do with the input text, and many of them don't even make any sense.

But that's the point, isn't it? Are you developing free software? By all means use this GPL library! You are developing proprietary software? Well, too bad, you don't get to use this code. Either develop it by yourself or look somewhere else. Not that what I'm saying is contrary to what you said, I'm just pointing out that it's by design.
I think you are exactly right. The algo is simply outmemorizing it's human counterparts. This isn't a very good paper at all.

I am not 100% sure, but I think I read somewhere (at least 2 years ago), that browsers are actually faster using JSON than Protobuf (a bit counter-intuitive).

Nevertheless, bandwidth-wise it could make sense anyway, but I think it makes sense to consult some benchmarks in this case.
In fact, under GPLv2 you can no longer distribute the code at all (even unrelated to the original infringement) until you are forgiven by the original copyright holder. This clause was removed in GPLv3.

Developing on the windows API is an unproductive way of creating apps, especially for the beginner developer.

In deployment you'll still need to use the command line. Poetry is IDE and OS agnostic.

It manages also the lock file, and resolve deps better than pip.

At last, it lets you put all meta data in one file, including dev deps, then build a wheel.

You can do that with regular setuptool and setup.cfg and it's compatible with pip though.
A nice boundary would be the interoperability layer, libraries and applications needed for application-agnostic protocols are included others are not.
Not once in this blog did the author address why OpenAI has chosen to release the model in the way they have and why he disagrees with them, other than the belief that 'it's probably not possible to distinguish between GPT-2 and humans so let's not bother giving people a chance to try to develop techniques'. Blithely dismissing what OpenAI is trying to do is incredibly arrogant.

- "And I think no currently existing technique can even scratch the capabilities humans have in this area [detecting truth], even with all of their biases".

This is literally why OpenAI is releasing the model slowly.

- "I really do think that if people just knew that something like GPT2 exists and is out there in the wild, it would force them to improve their standards for what information they trust".

I disagree. Look at how the knowledge that 'shills' and 'russian trolls' exist has shaped online discussions. It becomes an easy way to dismiss things that challenge your worldview, but does not significantly improve their ability to determine veracity.

- "I think we have reached a point where it is no longer, in general, possible to determine whether a given text is human generated or not".

- "It means that even if we had a system that can perfectly detect AI generated babbling and deployed it, it would censor not just AI, but a good chunk of real, human communication as well".

Based on what? This is a very thoughtless dismissal of a very important (and very much unanswered) question. Deep learning often leaves identifiable artifacts, such as deep fakes not blinking. GPT-2 is impressive, but to assume that it is identical to human generated text is a lazy assumption.

- "I’m as anti-war, pro-human as you could imagine, but if I was alive in the 40s, and the US offered me to work on the Bomb…I don’t know if I could have said no. Not because I wanted to hurt people, this is the important thing to understand about the curious hacker, but because it was just so damn cool. Splitting the literal building blocks of matter itself to make a giant explosion? That’s fucking awesome!"

Well I certainly hope those investors are having a fun time schmoozing in the bar today after telling Maker Faire squarely in the face that they wouldn't give them another round of capital.

No.

A similar, but much easier task than colonising Mars, would be to colonise Antarctica. We've had the technology to do so for at least a hundred years or more. But apart from a few very isolated groups, nothing has been done. We have not had the cash or the inclination to colonise Antarctica -no permanent cities or factories- in all that time.
But the problem is that a Python installed this way can be abused as a dependency for application delivery.
