The original statement of NPOV was to at least mention any significant view supported by a significant minority of experts or people involved; not EVERY topic. It makes sense that, if you want the encyclopedia to be a starting point for investigating a subject, it informs you of the existence of significant non-sanctioned views.

In practice, this need is usually satisfied by the Talk pages and archives. The published article is sanitized, but if you really want to learn about the controversies in the topic, your best choice is to dig deep in the discussions that resulted in the controversy being excised from the visible version. It's quite rare that the talk pages are also purged as well.
> then making two changes that are backed by a fair amount of data

I don't like how you go from a subjective assumption that no-one uses the sidebar to this, almost sounding disappointed that they haven't already done it. Or are you referring to some other data? I for one use the sidebar all the time.
Not entirely relevant so I apologise but your situation reminded me of the "inflamation theory of disesase":

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3492709/

"Inflammation has long been a well-known symptom of many infectious diseases, but molecular and epidemiological research increasingly suggests that it is also intimately linked with a broad range of non-infectious diseases, perhaps even all of them"
> I think the actual problem for people engaged here is that there is little to fight for anymore with the result that advocates end up in some weird purity spiral.

I’d suggest, much like Butler does in the article, that transgender people are much more likely to face stigma or inequalities in life due to how their gender plays out compared to your average person. Activism that leads to improving such a situation strikes me as a concrete goal, so I have trouble understanding how you might think there’s “little to fight for”.
The slow erosion of control. All your data is on the cloud. Developers coding online. No right to repair the devices you purchase. It's a disaster unfolding in slow motion.

I recommend everyone who reads this must do their part to take back control. One of your computers must be a Linux. Diversify your clouds and mobile platforms. One of your browsers must be open source in the true sense.

Take control your own data, at the very least have some sort of physical backup for the resources you create (code, music, videos, documents, etc.)
New word vector scheme that learns segments of words rather than unique words... this cuts down on size of vocab and size of soft max at the end?

No expensive attention mechanism? This cuts down on number of parameters needed quite a bit, especially when sequences get very long.

I know what an RNN is but what is a QRNN?

Will need to read this more closely. I thought the key research direction now was improving the efficiency of the self attention block but maybe not.

> I would argue that the most effective way to reduce cattle emissions is to get rid of cattle.

I agree, but as a former vegan I'm aware that there's an approximately 0% chance of getting a majority of the world's population to give up beef and dairy.

The future has to be with lab-grown meat. I know the technology is still nascent, but if we ever get it right then it has the potential to be one of the most transformative inventions in human history. I'm not sure how we can save the climate without it.
I don't know physics very well, but I was under the impression that our current models said that the primordial black holes would have evaporated by now. Perhaps there was some explanation for this in the article that I missed?
They don't make clear exactly what it does, but:

> With a Librem Key linked to your encrypted drive, you can boot your system, insert your key, and enter your PIN when prompted. You can always fall back to your passphrase if your Librem Key isn’t at hand.

Emphasis mine. Since the bootloader is not protected, it's susceptible to evil maid attacks.
How much could this reduce the total environmental food print of cattle? I.e. including all the energy used to grow the crops they eat, the deforestation to make room for the crops + cattle, the waste the cows produce.

Animal farming creates vast damage because of how inefficient it is and seaweed won't address how much feed cows need or that the world is eating more and more meat as countries get richer:

> The energy efficiency of meat and dairy production is defined as the percentage of energy (caloric) inputs as feed effectively converted to animal product. An efficiency of 25% would mean 25% of calories in animal feed inputs were effectively converted to animal product; the remaining 75% would be lost during conversion.

> Whole milk: 24%

> Beef: 1.9%

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/energy-efficiency-of-meat...

All improvements are good, but I'd like to know if this is more than a distraction to make people feel better about continuing to demand products they know are damaging the environment (e.g. Amazon deforestation).

Industrial farmed animals aren't eating grass, they're eating crops like soy. If you find soy milk and soy-based meat alternatives decent for example, consider eating those directly instead of products from soy-fed cows - it'll be vastly better for the environment with seaweed or not.
Any diagnosis or hat is done with Neural nets effectively have embedding. And I am sure people have done that already.
Came here to say this. I think he is focusing on the math that "typical" coders need without any emphasis on what ML practicioners need. Nevertheless I agree more linear algebra should be included.
From the article: All of these concepts rely on hydrogen as a primary power source

While cars are generally moving much faster towards batteries, for various reasons including that we lack a physical infrastructure to distribute and sell hydrogen, hydrogen does seem a better solution for aviation.

While the weight of batteries is essentially the same whether they are fully charged or not, a tank full of hydrogen gets lighter as the fuel is consumed, so it seems a much more efficient way to store energy on a transport method that it's highly subject to weight.

Here is my pet theory.

Most of YouTube's content moderation work is performed by an AI that was given the power to delete videos and channels, without informing anyone, including the human part of YT support, of its artificial nature, instead passing it off as some kind of "content oversight council" or something along those lines, and having someone occasionally write communications on its behalf.

It would explain the absolutely massive discrepancy between the public and the content moderators: there are often highly morally questionable videos and channels that are still up to this day, while relatively minor offenders are often struck down with no option of recourse for seemingly no reason.
I would have probably paid a considerable amount (and not just for buying but as part of my search).

Part of the problem though is with the exception of people who are weirdly sensitive[1] or keep unusual hours, most people just don't know that sound would be an issue for them until they're in a situation where sound is an issue for them.

The end result of this is a significant amount of cost on the public arising out of disputes, including distorting pressure on zoning.

Munis do astronomical amounts of data collection already, e.g. to maintain culverts, curbs, and storm drains they have street-view like data collection performed. They already do targeted sound studies (e.g. for roadways and public facilities). Some urban areas have gunshot detection and localization networks.

It might well be possible to make a case that a sound study could lower costs to the public by lowering code enforcement costs and reducing zoning conflicts (esp. if the marginal cost of adding it on top of other data collection programs was minimal).

[1] I wouldn't say that I am particularly sensitive, but being in a quiet location was part of my justification for the purchase that I was trading off against other considerations-- so I would have been unhappy if it didn't turn out to be what I expected. ... I'm happy with the result, and having lived here a few years I think I significantly underestimated how nice it would be.

Someone on HN once said “It’s hard to tell people the solution to a problem they don’t have”. Building software that solves a problem that the intended users don’t understand that they have is also a real problem.
Excuse my ignorance—is there a resource you could share for doing so with the bootloader and key?
When an Ox is a community asset and not owned by a single farmer.

Which, I imagine, is or was quite often the case. I'm no historian nor a farming-expert, so I'm really just guessing.
It was enough of a mainstream consensus an archaeologist had to write a bloody book refuting it.

>modern scholars have their work reviewed by peers

The idea that a bunch of weebs 2000 years later are more authoritative than someone who was there at the time because "peer review" is is laughably insane. Peer review doesn't even work in physics. In other fields it seems to be a route for spreading mass hysterias and collective insanity.

Please name one actual fact about the Roman empire surfaced by modern historians contradicting contemporary historians and abetted by Peer Review. "Nero as misunderstood bunny rabbit" doesn't count, unless you can account for his, say, murder of his bloody mom.
I recall watching a film about an 8x8 matrix of electrodes being inserted in the gap between the two hemispheres, just above the occipital lobe, producing 64 pixels worth of vision. The recipient had what looked like a DIN socket in the side of his head. I saw this film in a psychology 101 class at a community college, so it couldn't have been top-secret bleeding-edge research or anything. The year was 1991.

Every few years since then -- and seriously, it's happened at least 10 times now -- I've seen something similar announced as though it's a major breakthrough. I don't understand what's going on. Are each of these announcements -- and that 1991 film itself -- merely aspirational bullshit, which never really come off as planned? Or do they each represent distinct branches of research whose apparent similarity is merely a function of my layman's understanding?
Queue the responses of how people don't or won't use it because it's too small, but they will complain YouTube has a monopoly.

I agree for sure. Less flights the better. They should even enforce a cap on arrivals and departures.
It's also still very slow. But apparently not slow enough for anyone to do anything about it. We seem to have just accepted sluggish UIs these days.
The interesting bit is not that they are seeking permission, but what will happen if permission is denied.

For that reason, I suspect the US will either approve these requests of just delay them infinitely.

Some companies would then be smart to do trade as if the request had been accepted. This forces the US's hand into either accepting the request, ignoring the trade, or rejecting the request (causing potential political fallout).
That's not an accurate description of HN. You might be falling prey to the notice-dislike bias: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor..., which is one reason why people arrive at this kind of distorted generalization. There is also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23308098 and https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&so....

The fact that the topic is ideological is no reason to go into flamewar about it. Actually it's a reason not to go into flamewar.

That’s the equivalent of saying “be born rich” to a poor person. Iceland is running on geothermal which most places don’t have and dams are a non-starter in the vast majority of river systems due to the ecological destruction.

There are no countries running on wind/solar, which is the only renewable technology that can actually run everywhere.
Seems like if we can manufacture the active chemical (bromoform) without seaweed, it'll be much more scalable.

Then there's also an even crazier idea: create a massive sea in the middle of Australia and use that for seaweed farming.
My German-as-second-language understanding is:

Kohlenstofffaserverstärkter Kunststoff == Kohlen (literally coal but understood more broadly as any carbon) stoff (material) faser (thread) verstärkter (reinforced) Kunststoff (plastic).
Yes. We're being sold a mainframe again. But a much much worse one. Now without the reliability, documentation, support and consistency.
Thats an interesting question for sure. Would need to be calculated against the current energy needs, hopefully an increase in seaweed feed leads to a decrease in soy bean farming.

I'd rather eat the seaweed or soy directly, but this could be an improvement.

So is the conclusion that bisphenol A and phthalates disturb testicle development in fetus, but that we should still try to study this in bigger datasets?

To be practical then, pregnant women should avoid plastic containers with bisphenol A and phthalates?

I always find most systematic reviews very defensive about drawing conclusions, I understand this is due to the fact that the evidence is often from dissimilar data or experiments, but often it just hides clarity.
Completely agree.

My wife (native Polish speaker) and I (native English speaker) both use Wikipedia's left-hand list of articles in other languages to get quick translations of the title/subject of a given article.

Let's say each game needs to sell 100000 copies to be profitable. If you make more games you need to sell more copies. The amount of games people buy doesn't increase simply because there are more games. Lots of people buy one or two games and play them for a long time. So eventually you end up in a situation where you have 1000 games (must sell 100 million copies) but only 50 million customers are willing to buy stuff.
What's systematic in the justice system that disproportionately imprison a specific group of people?

As a black person who has been stopped more often than my white peers because I look like an immigrant (in Europe though), systemic racism is just marketing, there's no systemic racism enshrined in law in any Western society.

Sure, some individual may be racist, even if it's hard to say whether someone is racist or he's just afraid of the statistics, which prove some groups indeed harm police officers and other citizens in disproportionately high numbers.

Things would be definitely better for everyone (minus the cartels, I guess) if it wasn't for the war on drugs, which makes poor people into criminals.
And things would be much better if some groups weren't specifically targeted in the 60s and given benefits that incentivised fatherlessness and broke the family structure.
It's a huge topic, so you can look up Thomas Sowell on this.
This is partially addressed in CSIRO's FAQ: https://research.csiro.au/futurefeed/faq/

In summary, FutureFeed is working with several external suppliers to establish production. They expect to be able to improve the crop production over time.

One thing of note is significant reductions can be achieved with quite a low ratio of seaweed in the feed. Specifically they report that recent feedlot trials demonstrated over 95% methane reduction with seaweed inclusion at 0.20% of OM in the ration.
>Eh, I disagree. They stated "literally no one cares", but the fact that it's news and hit the front page literally means someone cares. No math involved. QED.

Literally doesn't mean what you think it means. It's also a figure of speach. From the dictionary:

literally (2): "used for emphasis while not being literally true"

>It wasn't trivial if Microsoft cared enough to fix it in a few days, which is like light speed for Microsoft.

Yeah, I read the piece and couldn't believe that this was the "bleeding edge" product they were referring to. At one point they call it "niche" themselves, which is a more accurate description.
