Google is not meaningfully ahead of other megacorps in NLP like facebook, and likely based on this thread and other starting to backslide.

Google may publish more than others, but only because if you write "we trained our models on 24 specialized TPUs for 1 month" than the reviewers instantly know you work for deep-mind despite "double blind anonymity" and thus you are much more likely to be accepted.

Pedigree is not the same as quality.
There clearly is some curation because reports appear in the database in batches. Reports can be self reported but don't have to be.

Regardless, even if everything you say is true, what it means is that governments deliberately run useless post-trial safety monitoring mechanisms. Which is terrifying and terrible. Putting all humanities eggs in one basket, literally.

On the contrary, if no one complaints nothing will happen. Moaning always comes before invention. Its just not the moaners themselves who make anything happen but they are very much part of the delicate balance. You could invent something without moaners but no one would recognize it.

Take this one for example:

> bring the fire of the Sun to Earth to slay our enemies

The amount of moaning we still have to do about this? If we fail at that task, this fire stuff will be sure to be the end of us.
If you want to nitpick, it's not just different dialects but different languages. Mutual intelligibility is a common line used to split things into separate languages and most of the Sinitic language group "languages" are true languages as they aren't mutually intelligible. It's a bunch of different languages with a shared writing system and more mutual intelligibility in writing than in spoken words.
I'd be interested too.

I think there's a degree of straight cultural influence from european fascism (the nationalist's elite units were trained by german officers in the interwar years), plus having the same basic project (the nationalists were trying to create a nation for the Han[0]), and the same methods (extrajudicial violence, state terror[1]).

I agree that it's hard to use european political categories in east asia, but I think the KMT is a neater fit for fascism than a lot of european fascists (e.g. Spain's nationalsts). I think the problem is less an east-west thing and more just that fascism is a really vague category.

Countries are run by people who follow the law, not by those policing it. I mean, it takes long time for a new framework of law to settle in, it will gradually have an effect on industry practice and citizen's expectations.

Searching Discord externally is not possible AFAIK. It's an actively user-hostile platform, which is doubly irritating because most community efforts (e.g. modding of games) mandate Discord and allow for nothing else. Frequently they don't even accept communication from another space, such as bug reports via email or GitHub.
Yes, high fever is dangerous and why monitoring is important and hospitalization is required if the fever goes up. A thermostat is a (I am pretty sure) a recommended tool for parents to own and use during an infection. If the fever do go up there is common available medicine.

For covid it is good to keeping an eye on oxygen levels. There are not many good tools to do this, through the skin do turn blue when things start to go very bad. Oxygen capacity can go down a fair amount before there is obvious signs, especially if the patient is laying down. The recommended medicine is pure oxygen which will require a hospital visit.

Personally I am more worried about covid. It is easier to monitor the fever of the flu, the signs for trouble is more clear, and the medical guidelines for when to go to the hospital is well established. Worrying oxygen levels are silent, harder to measure, and the medicine isn't something that people usually have at home. The guidelines are not fully established and there is ongoing research studies on the effects.
This is a very common cycle. People make a good tool, good tool becomes popular, people destroy tool to harvest profit.
I was just talking to someone who came back from working in Shanghai and that’s not what she told me but it’s very possible she misunderstood my question.
yeah me too - from your link:

> often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

the first part of that is the defining part of fascism - the state ideology. There's also common co-features like authoritarianism, a cult of personality and anti-democratic tendencies but neither are especially universal (for instance with Pinochet and Franco).

It is pretty commonly used to describe just authoritarianism in general though.
Agree with the paneer suggestion - the only equipment needed is a pot & muslin; only ingredients are milk & acid (e.g. lemon juice); it's easy; it tastes better than what you can buy (here in the UK anyway); you can have it however soft or firm you like it.

Worth noting though that (afaiu anyway) you can't make ricotta with whey from paneer - since you've already introduced acid to coagulate, there's too little if any protein left. Use it instead in bread, or in place of water in anything that you might also add yoghurt or cream to. e.g. if you make palak paneer or mattar paneer with your paneer, use the whey instead of water to reach the desired consistency.
While that's certainly possible, this feels like a mistake AltaVista would make 20 years ago, it seems weirdly out of place for Google doing that in 2022. They used to be a bit more context aware and not just present you results due to some bit of text matching.

If I try the search on flickr.com, "white people" returns black&white pictures of people, while "white couple" returns swans. Meanwhile shutterstock.com returns mostly correct results.
> "It doesn't matter how remote"

It does matter. We don't mandate helmets for walking the streets, even with the remote chance you might stumble and hit your head.

We should not disrupt society or deport/hate people because of "remote" and insignificant risks in an environment where the virus is already on the loose, spreading easily.

> "An unvaccinated person who tests negative is more likely to become infected..."

It doesn't work like that anymore. Many unvaccinated people by now have had the virus and therefore have some immunity.

Even if you aren't ignoring natural immunity, Omicron will spread among vaccinated people every time. This is evidenced in the current surge data, and also reflected in countless anecdotes shared by others, and observed in my own family: Fully vaxxed, vents and air going like crazy, the virus nevertheless spread around the family with ease.

Another confirmed anecdote: An elderly family friend went to dinner with 10 others. All fully vaxxed. One had Covid without knowing. ALL members of the dinner table contracted the virus and all became sick, including the source. None died or needed ventilator, but I think 3 or 4 needed oxygen levels monitored and 2 went to hospital as precaution. The vaccine likely helped reduce severity. But transmission was NOT stopped or slowed. The virus scored a perfect 10 that night, infecting every person at the table.

Risk mitigation needs to be practical, fair, humane, effective and not politically motivated. We don't need to tell unvaccinated people to "go back where you came from" when they visit our shores. There is no gain from that with a virus already running wild.
It is widely known that medical questions can only answered by MDs. Legal questions only by lawyers. Philosophical questions only by philosophers. Basically no questions should be asked or answered in a forum, as they will always be inferior to what The Experts™ say. Also every question can only be asked and answered once, so its either forum or expert.

"[They eliminated] Almost everything, including the writing system" does not sound like a figure of speech to me, but you do you I guess.
Sorry but thats the worst reasoning i've ever heard when it comes to this FPS debate. 24fps is a bad framerate. Even for movies with the "prerendered motion blur", which helps to smooth the video a bit, its a stuttering mess. Comparing it to watching static photographs makes no sense, an inherent quality of video is it not being static.
Don't forget that 46 fps was determined by Edison to be the minimum viable framerate to not cause eye fatigue but then it was decided to go down to 24 to lower the cost of movie productions. 24fps is literally just the low budget option.
The higher the fps the smoother the video the better the video. I'd pick 720p60fps over 1080p30fps any day if im somehow limited by bitrate restrictions.

UltraRAM: 'Universal Memory' That Brings RAM-Like Speed to Non-Volatile Storage
Some aspects of Chinese culture remained through the cultural revolution, but some previously important cultural features, like those related to music or Buddhism for example, were nearly wiped out. Maybe as a result, to this day some of the biggest hitting Mandarin singers are Taiwanese. In the movie space, HK used to produce lots of great movies, but many of them couldn't be made anymore given the HK takeover and how mainland movie production is now driven by propaganda goals. I hope to see Taiwan pick it up.
Taiwan has it even stranger as they were ruled by Japan for 50 years (long before WW2) so much of their culture had started to become Japanese culture or a Japanese-Taiwanese hybrid culture. Japan massively modernized the country to the point that when Taiwan has handed back to China, Taiwan was more advanced than China. I read one description that described it as being re-invaded by a bunch of uncultured ruffians that went looting and pillaging everywhere.
1 Hz is unironically an amazing achievement in minecraft. 20 Hz is the theoretical maximum without abusing bugs, and higher values are technically possible through 0-tick pulsing but most likely so utterly devastating to design that you'd have to be the worst kind of masochist to start trying.
Reminds me of a movie I saw as a kid. Can't remember the exact situation. But some celebrity, super-hero or whatever got asked by a journalist something ala "why did you say you hate this city?" and they answered "I have never said 'I hate this city'". Then what was aired was the last of that sentence, only the 'I hate this city' part.
Exactly. What they want is to sell ads, what they have is crap ads we don't like, so ... what are they to do?

There is one comment on that article, it perfectly reflects what you are saying.
I've yet to find anyone who can explain to me how interest rate woo is supposed to fix the cost of essential imports like energy - which historically is one of the most obvious and direct causes of inflation.

The inflation of the 70s wasn't caused by the cost/availability of credit, it was caused by the fact that oil prices jumped from an average of $4 in 1973 to $13 in 1974.

For some reason we're supposed to pretend this had no significant effect on prices in an economy largely powered by oil.

It's baffling that educated adults can still take this seriously.

I've had a couple different SPO2 meters for a few years, they seem to work pretty reliably.

Not yet as accessible as a thermometer if you're talking about population measures, but since it sounds like this is something that concerns you personally it might be worth getting one.
Yes indeed. During the 1990s I first became aware of this as a comedy trope.

Loads of TV shows were using these techniques to make the public say all kinds of crazy shit as if they were widely held opinions.

It was funny because back in the 90s it seemed like, well at least to me, that we still trusted journalists and we didn't have social media. So seeing interviews obviously manipulated was funny.

I can also remember Charlie Brooker, the Black Mirror guy, showing the same footage from a set up reality TV show[1].

By just using editing he could show the same event but with very different interpretations.

Instinctively I think we all know that but seeing it done as demonstration is shocking and fascinating.

If you read the paper it discusses causal mechanisms extensively. Reality is you can't get a paper about vaccine side effects out, or keep it out, unless you grovel in the intro and state that vaccines are wonderful, safe and everyone should take them. Skip the obligatory morality disclaimer at the start and you'll see lots of case studies where causality is obvious, along with discussions of how it works, e.g.

"A 67-year-old patient from Hispanic had petechial rashes on her legs and chest 2 weeks after receiving the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech). Then, she received the second dose of the vaccine two days prior to developed bleeding in her gums, a rapid rash covering her body and a subconjunctival haemorrhage in the right eye"

...

"There are several putative mechanisms by which COVID-19 vaccine triggers immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (ITT). First, Greinacher and colleagues considered that COVID-19 vaccination causes a rare ITT mediated by activation of antibodies against PF4 that stimulate platelets through their Fcγ receptors"

...

"First, an interval of 1–3 weeks between vaccination and the onset of symptoms supports a temporary causal relationship"

...

"For instance, a 30-year-old man, without family history of kidney disease, developed fevers, headache and brown-coloured urine, coupled with new-onset haematuria and proteinuria 1 day after vaccination, eventually diagnosed with IgA nephropathy"

Yes exactly. And those are less 'popular' than they seem. VI Lenin was not a prole nor were most of the Bolsheviks.

Historical communist revolutions (Russia, China) are pretty openly 'elite' led: by their respective communist parties. By comparison the civil war is a lot more 'popular' because it is much more of a mass movement against Stuart personal rule.
That's not why nurses and doctors wear elastomeric respirators or PAPR devices.
All of what you're describing happened after the Industrial Revolution, and most in the last 20 years. Yet the cutoff between Ancient Times and "our era" (?) happened 2000+ years ago, for some reason.

Also, we don't fly "like birds". We are flown, crammed into metal tubes that are more similar to ancient galleries carved in mountains, mentioned in the OP, than to any bird.

Edit: As a matter of fact I don't understand your response (or your tone). I didn't say that nothing had changed since the building of the pyramids. I said we're the same, and is that in dispute? Has human nature changed more in the last 4,500 years than in the 500,000 to 1,000,000 years of its evolution? Or in the last 100 years? Because we drive cars?

The footage is for verification only. No one will watch the whole thing, but people can scan through it and notice if the conclusion most people are giving different from the edited shorter final production video.

I think that's the Scooby Doo live action sequel.
During which time the family gets together to watch propaganda on CCTV. I wish I was joking but that's literally what almost every single family does. It's Chinese tradition in the name only.

And that isn't to say that tradition doesn't still exist here and there. But it may not be as much as someone not familiar with Chinese history may assume.

Btw even authoritarian subjects need days off or they would revolt sooner or later. So the assumption that this proofs Chinese tradition is alive doesn't follow. When the Christians completely annihilated European traditions they also kept the dates and a few of the customs of some of the pagan holidays. Like Easter eggs and Christmas trees. It actually helps destroy a culture faster, else there may be too much resistance.
To be fair to the paper authors, they embrace and joke about it in their own headline '36 entangled officers'. PopSci headlines are always clickbait/sensationalised.
It's interesting reading the comments here, most of which are of the kind, "well, it doesn't count because it was X or Y, or because this was already normal somewhere else in the world." And then a bunch of other comments which say, "well, if you include A and B then...yeah, it did."

I mean, sure...Britain either did or didn't ever have a revolutionary moment, depending on how you change the definition and requirements of 'revolutionary'.

In those terms, the conversation so far feels more like "Do I think Britain ever had a revolutionary moment?"
I sometimes think about how utterly screwed I'd be if googles bot decided that I'd done something wrong.. I'm not a celebrity, and not a company, there'd be zero change of getting my life back. I get depressed just thinking about it.

Watching Meerkat Manor when I was younger taught me that any narrative can be archived with a bit of editing
> dialects between different regions can be borderline incomprehensible to each other

That's because they aren't dialects. They are different languages. The CCP has pushed this lie that all Chinese languages are "dialects" instead of separate languages because it aligns with their narrative of a single Chinese people. You can be a single ethnicity and still have differences and different languages, but to the mainland government differences undermine cohesion.

The differences between these so called "dialects" are larger than between the Romance languages to each other. Thus, there is more mutual intelligibility between Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian than between Taiwanese, Mandarin, and Cantonese. To call them "dialects" is linguistically incorrect. They are separate languages. Someone will always respond that they are mutually intelligible through writing, and that's true. But that's bc the writing system isn't actually portraying the verbal language. It is a pictographic script.
I don't hate NFTs, but I appreciate the backlash because people who like NFTs seem to misunderstand them MASSIVELY.

Some NFT haters also seem to misunderstand them, however, so let me throw yet another explanation attempt into the ring.

Anyone can make an NFT for anything. I can make an NFT for the Mona Lisa or whatever the hell I want. What do you get when you buy it? Absolutely nothing. I can make infinitely many too.

NFTs get all of their value from where they come from, a bit like autograph cards.

One from some rando on the web? Worthless. One from Eminem? Hmmm, maybe more interesting.

I do think NFTs can have some value for artists and art collectors. But always remember that an NFT's value comes from its creator and what they do, say and commit to. One possible option would be that an NFT entitles you to listen to ("own") a piece of music (my favorite use case because I love buying things on Bandcamp, but would like to be able to resell stuff at some point).

That's an interesting use case, but nothing close to what NFT zealots dream of.
Besides some outlier ultra nationalists, most regular citizens of the mainland are also not huge fans of the CCP either and would happily get along with Taiwanese. And I have met some Taiwanese who even ironically have an overly romanticized view of the mainland --- seeing it as having made huge strides economically compared to the somewhat stagnant local economy.

At the end of the day, Taiwan culturally has more in common with the mainland than, say, Hong Kong does, because more of its history was spent together. Anything beyond is often a lot of "the grass is greener on the other side" mentality happening. People on both sides envy some aspects of what the other side has, but also would not trade what they have themselves to get it.

A large reason why CRTs are rather excellent in regards to motion is because they're not sample and hold displays resulting in very low duty cycles (dominated by the phosphor's fall time of somewhere between 200-1000 µs, as rise time is basically instant at <20 ns or so and video bandwidth is well above 100 MHz). That's the main reason why a 240 Hz LCD using BFI for strobing (D=0.5) can't compete with a 120 Hz CRT (D~0.05 or so).
I don't take this vox pop crap for more than what it is either, but this is about as honest as some China-based channel arranging an interview with Alex Jones in a random park and passing it off as the voice of a random American man of the street
