In the context of attention, there is a very interesting recent paper that warns against conflating attention and token importance - "Is Attention Interpretable?" [1]. This is an accepted paper in ACL-2019:

There's the alternative of nationalizing them before bailing them out if they are too big to fail. When they are stable again, you can put them back on the market.

With the 2008 setup, there is little incentive not to repeat it.
We could have bailed the companies out while tossing the executives who facilitated this crisis into the gulags.
That charge is for cases where a company with at least 25 developers wants to include this as a component in their own apps.

It's a pretty normal and reasonable charge for that kind of scenario, in which the company licensing it would likely be charging/earning vastly more than this from their clients or end-users.
File those under "basically irrelevant" in my opinion. Once you have a relatively cheap phone, you're basically satisfied your Maslow hierarchy for technology, i.e. you can accomplish most of the requirements of existing as a digital citizen albeit you may not be as efficient as those with more devices. The real labor saving devices, dishwasher, clothes washer, refrigerator etc. were/are very meaningful but haven't moved much in the last 20 years.

Education, housing, food, clothing, etc. are far more important and relevant to what it means to live a decent life in the 21st century.
If we're comparing culteral/linguistic spheres of influence, then the US side should also include Canada, the UK, Australia, etc.

The thing is, I am not a progressive in your understanding and by English sense of the word and I fully agree with your rewordization. In my country, progressives are comparable to US libertarians.

What you list as positive traits seem to be just rational politics. That's how it's known in my country, not as something conservative or else. So is that conservatism, being rational and pragmatic instead of... Irrational as progressives? Or is the key message of conservatism something else? The word conservative suggest a stop of change. I thought the message of conservatism would be more related to that.

Ya this looks like it could've definitely fit the bill. Too bad it never took off. And worse yet, both major browsers tried their own version and neither took off.

This just seems so easy an idea to get on board with, like VSCode solving the n-to-1 problem with their language server api. I don't understand why it fizzled out.

I don’t want to take away from your other point but this is not so trivial for the hundreds of millions living in low lying countries like Bangladesh.
Any time you get cross-disciplinary stuff done by people significantly lacking in experience in one of the disciplines, you get stuff like this. Programmer art (shudder), artist code (double shudder), EE software, software engineer circuit board layout, mechanical engineer wiring... Smart people will figure something out but it always looks janky to specialists in the figured-out field.
I'm not claiming they're equal, I'm pointing out that the GP's "since I'm getting so much less, why should I pay the same price" point is subjective, and not a statement of fact.

Sure, some people prefer hardcopies, good for them. But claiming that e-books being priced similarly is some market failure is taking it too far, for some of us it seems perfectly reasonable. If e-books were priced higher (even as much as 50% more) I'd still buy them over physical copies.

I am quite certain the tariffs went from 10% to 25%, so only actually a 15% in crease.

The real reason for the remaining increases are probably a combination of domestic Chinese pressures and the inflation machine Obama started and Trump has only continued both starting to grip and people are starting to notice as articles like this point out things that have been going on for a decade now.

I guess I'd have to throw this back at you and ask if you know a lot of people who use 2 headphones on a single phone. Considering phones are largely personal items, I feel like that was probably a super small subset of the user base.

Still rocking my iPhone SE. Gonna keep using it until it no longer charges, the headphone port dies, or Apple stops putting out iOS updates for it.
G6 plus' camera is not one of its selling points. It is OK for the price range, but not more than that. Older iPhones (as in iPhone 6) are better.

Edit: but the camera on g7 is apparently better.
Funny, because there was trouble, but it's actually the opposite of what you might expect. Apple was the one who was getting sued for entering into the music industry.

And now the banks have learned they can hold the economy for ransom.
My apple phones have consistently been good for 3-4 years, making the yearly outlay similar. The differences aren't in the CPU features but rather the screen and camera features. The high end apple phone from two years ago still has a better screen than the budget android today and the camera is probably better as well - perhaps equal at worst.

No, I don't have a headphone jack (and yes, it is annoying) but it isn't the only tradeoff. (For example, being left handed, my palm triggers the back button on many android phones when I reach for something on the screen.)
> Covering poor people's housing and food expenses isn't going to magically make them want to spend their time acting upper middle class.

You seem to be under the assumption that the majority of "poor people" behave the way they are portrayed in "reality" TV shows or whatever you're consuming that makes you think this way.

In fact most are no different from the "upper middle class", except for the amount of money they can freely spend. Do you honestly believe they're somehow wired differently just because they're poor?

Watch less TV, interact more with actual people.
Perhaps I'm missing the subtle point here, but you can't call a music producer Apple, even if you predate Apple Inc by a decade, and have millions of dollars to hire lawyers. You can license the trademark from them though, if you are lucky.

The relative military capabilities of the two parties, like the resource dependency, is a side issue.

Kuala Lumpur shows no sign of wanting Singapore back because Singapore would significantly alter Malaysia's demographics and push for racial equality, which is not what the ruling Malay political class wants.

Beijing, however, sees every reason to keep HK. Not just the irredentism: have a look at the map and you will see that HK is on the NE entrance of the Pearl River. HK may not be as economically important as before, but just like Macau on the other side of the mouth of the Pearl River, it is of immense geostrategic importance to the security of the river delta region.

Why is there a stript blocking mobile browsers
Having them in the same pocket I'd be worried about the force that could get applied by sitting down in a tight pair of pants with a modern-sized phone. The sort of situation that caused the "bendgate" problems. Maybe it's over cautious, but with phones costing $1000 I'd rather not mess around with it.

And I don't love the glass screen protectors, had one on my phone briefly and it seemed like it screwed up the image quality. Subtle, like a faint RGB shimmer over the whole thing. So now I've just got a thin plastic case and I try to not drop it.
I'm not single-issue, but its definitely at the top of my requirements list. Just bought a pixel 3a to replace my galaxy s8 that broke. The headphone jack was probably the single biggest influence on what I bought. That along with price, camera and iFixit repair score made the 3a hard to pass up.

We are quick to see the negative, but conservatism also maintains keeping traditions and culture. I live in the Acadian region and we continue our traditions as they preserve our culture.
I didn't put my phones into cases until I got one with a glass back. Before it was all removable plastic backing, and shattering the glass was never a problem. My phones took tumbles down the stairs, and the worst that would happen is that back would fly one way, the battery another, and with all that kinetic energy dispersed the phone would be perfectly intact.
Lidl's own-brand headphones have a 3.5mm connector on the opposite earcup to the cable, so you can daisy-chain them. My children do so frequently, so they can watch Minecraft videos without annoying their parents.
My atttitude toward a Cal Newport article is that he's published multiple highly regarded books that I've read and found very insightful and applicable in practice. So when he writes something that's brief and does some handwaving, but fits within his overall worldview (like this article), I'm inclined to take it more seriously.

If you've never heard of Cal Newport before now, I can see reason for some doubt, but I also think you're maybe missing out on a lot within the field.
But I only need 90MB/s for music. Or if the phone can already determine unused apps to offload, it could move them to cold slow storage instead.
It's not just about the ratings. If a person is too risky you simply don't lend them money.
Lehman had a C-level risk officer, which surely means they took risk seriously at the time they established it. In 2007 they didn't (they fired the risk officer!), but that just makes me worry whether it's possible for banks in general to durably learn risk-related lessons. Some banks are responsible and will manage risk properly on their own - to protect the others, maybe some risky but useful asset classes need to be restricted.
I've been using the iOS 13 developer beta for a couple months, and I can confirm that within the first week, several apps from the big 4 requested permissions for things that should be absolutely unnecessary.

iOS 13 has several great privacy-focused changes:

- WiFi SSID is protected behind location permissions (ie, an app must request and be granted location permissions to be able to access the current SSID)

- Bluetooth has additional permission prompts (as detailed in the article)

- When an app has been using location data, the user is periodically prompted to confirm continued background location use (with a map of locations the app has used).

- Safari has several on top of all these, like prompting a user to allow cross-site cookie loading, etc

In some of these, Apple is catching up to Android, and in others, it is ahead. Either way, it seems that most of these come from a directive from inside Apple to clean up 3rd party app behavior, likely prompted by things like last year's analytics & enterprise deployment scandals.
Shipping foreign produce is not good for the environment at all. Easy to harvest and low maintenance produce such as garlic should not need to be imported. The margins over garlic may be low, but local producers can still benefit from being able to sell without too many intermediaries.
Yet you create suffering throughout the world every day. Where were your clothes made? Where was your food grown? From what mines were the metals extracted for the computing device you're using to converse in this very thread?

Nevermind you, though. If we accept that the universe is god's creation, then we accept that the suffering we see is a product of that creation. Consider that this may be unavoidable, and perhaps even necessary. We don't know for what purpose creation exists, do we?

Consider that yes, there are challenges, yes there is suffering, but also that we have the tools to make it better. And yet, even though it is completely within our power to prevent children from being blinded by parasites, we do not. But hey, it's god's fault, right? I suppose that's easier than accepting that we're just not as good as we think we are. Much simpler to point at the sky and say 'oh, there's an omnipotent being who could snap his fingers and end this!', which may even be true, but never ask why it is that being might choose not to even though we ourselves have our reasons for not helping.
Not really relevant. Obviously you want fast I/O for your OS storage, but for external storage that's mostly going to be used for music, videos, and images, it really doesn't matter how fast it is.

>Have any two financial crises happened for the same reasons?

Yes, they all do. Fundamentally, they are the result of leverage (usually with a significant amount of maturity and liquidity mismatch) being used to bid up the price of capital assets. HIGHLY recommend reading Irving Fisher's "Booms and Depressions" and "The Debt Deflation Theory of Great Depressions" as well as pretty much everything Hyman Minsky wrote as a starting point. This is a subject that has fascinated me for decades.

Once you look at the revised numbers and you then start unpacking all the lies contained in the CPI you start understanding that it's a literal con job, a trick of confidence.

"Importance" is a fairly overused word in DL. e.g. importance sampling and importance weighted gradients.

"Attention" works by creating inductive bias for the upstream network, which is analogous to human attention, and the word itself is much more intuitive.

Keep in mind machine learning is largely a descriptive science(modeling the behavior), whereas neuroscience is more prescriptive. So from the behavioral perspective, attention is better suited than importance.
weird there's no mention of the mi a3. under display fingerprint scanner, the headphone jack, Android One and an interesting price. if it wasn't for the 720p display it'd be a best buy
The rating system has been materially modified since 2008 to reduce the risk. In 2008, the designated rating companies (NRSROs) had explicit legal immunity for the correctness of their ratings, which incentivized them to sell their ability to produce ratings that optimize for goals other than correct representation of risk. And they did.

The Dodd-Frank bill passed in 2010 removed this immunity, making them liable for bad faith ratings that did not represent the real risk. As some people may recall, this created a temporary problem in the market as many debt instruments were suddenly re-rated to eliminate this legal liability. This is also related to the downgrade of US Treasury debt from AAA status in 2011.

Weren't there also chains of derivatives based off the same mortgages too with each of them being insured? I wasn't paying much attention back then but it seemed like that was one of the biggest issues because when mortgage started failing in large numbers it affected whole chains of derivative products and all of them triggered insurance at the same time.
