Yeah, let's name these super-emitters!
Why let them have that at all. The honest true is instead of worrying what strategy most balances the interests of 99.9% of people and a few whiny rich people we could spend that time creating actual value. Whereas if you want to continue on with the Rube Goldberg device we ought to force them to pay not employers present rate but market rate and cost of foregone opportunity.

You might say that's incredibly unaffordable but that is the point. Otherwise the employer is robbing society of the value created in addition to stealing the difference between present rate and market rate + foregone opportunities.
This was a very intelligent and targeted way of not answering the question.

It's all green threads, so you don't have real context switches and the messages don't have to be passed between (real) processes. Of course there are downsides to that kind of approach: good luck calling a C library function that you have to pass a callback into, anything else where you need precise control over your OS-level threading is difficult (and while BEAM has a good reputation, there's always the risk of e.g. priority inversions happening), and if the VM scheduler doesn't handle your workload well then you're limited to whatever control they give you.

> This unique system of enlisting foreign nationals, primarily Asian men, to serve in domestic and food service positions would remain in place for the next 100 years.

> In 1901, President William McKinley signed an executive order allowing the U.S. Navy to recruit hundreds of native non-naturalized Filipinos to serve in domestic and food service positions. As a result of these territorial acquisitions and McKinley’s executive order, hundreds of Filipinos and other Asian nationals would join the Revenue Cutter Service in the ratings of steward, cook and boy.

> However, in 1947, the United States and Republic of the Philippines signed an agreement allowing the U.S. to once again recruit citizens of the Philippines for voluntary enlistment in the U.S. military. Enlisting Philippine nationals for domestic service on Coast Guard cutters continued for another 20 years, however, these men could choose to change to a non-food service rating or pursue an officer’s commission after gaining citizenship. Finally, in 1971, this practice was discontinued and all enlisted ratings were opened to Filipinos that qualified by means of education, prior experience and security qualifications.

Degrees != Training

4-year degrees are almost completely useless filler (think about it — that's 5000+ hours of potential training). Most "degree" requirements could be stripped down maybe 90% and contain the same or more job-specific content.

An intense 8-week course would prepare most people for most jobs better than a college diploma requirement.

> Coast Guard culinary specialists are critical afloat. But, on bases, contractors have taken away many shore billets culinary specialists need to recharge after a stint at sea. Lacking spots at kitchens ashore, Coast Guard culinary specialists have little choice but to spend their career constantly at sea, struggling to keep old or under-designed ship kitchens operational. And when they are lucky enough to find a shoreside job, they’re usually snatched away to temporarily fill in for an understaffed vessel.

The problem, as we are seeing in many other parts of the economy right now, is that if you treat your employees badly, they will eventually all quit, regardless of how good the pay is. Especially so if they are highly-trained professionals that are in high demand elsewhere, as in this case.
Training being fair use is something I can buy into.

As for actually using the model... personally I still find that unacceptable. Even if the risks are low, we have lots of works in the model, so the risk can still add up.

The idea you have in your head of training without regurgitation is likely not possible. The underlying technology treats the training set as gospel: the system is trained to regurgitate first, and generalization is a happy accident. Likewise, we can't look into a model to check and see what it's memorized, nor can we trace back an output to a particular training example. Which has ethical implications with the way that AI companies crawl the web to get training data; such models almost certainly hold someone's personal information and there's no way to get it out of there aside from curating your training set to begin with.
Can they just contract out to civilians or even foreigners? A cook from the Philippines for example, give them American pay and it would be pretty fair. There is even a history of Filipinos serving in the US military for varying reasons.

Derivative work isn't permitted under current copyright though, you know that?

Like I can't release a sequel to a Star Wars movie without getting a license to do so by Disney, because they own the original work's copyright, I'm not allowed to produce a derivative of it.

Similarly this is why there needs to be an explicit open source license that allows you to produce derivative work from it.

That's the crux of it, the trained model is a derivative work, literally it's mathematically derived almost deterministically (ignoring SDG being stochastic).

The question is, even though it's derivative, is it still fair use to use it without permission?
By deconstructing the "decisions"(to use a disgusting anthropomorphism) that led to either image we can dismiss the "I don't understand, so it must be doing something greater than it is" rhetoric.

The decisions leading up to the human art is the entire human experience leading up to the creation of the art(and possible context afterwards), which we as people tend to put value on.

The "decisions" leading up to the AI art are a series of iterative denoising steps that attempt to recover an image from noisy data by estimating how much the noise differs from the "good looking" image.

So for your "vespa fenders as a helmet" drawing, I don't think that constitutes an algorithm being "creative". If a human were to make the same picture we could rationalize that they're being creative because we can imagine a path where their human experiences led to a new idea. Since the algorithm was only ever made to denoise an image based on its abstract feature-space representation I don't see any way we could rationalize that it created a new idea. The algorithm never "thought" it should use a fender as a helmet, it only found that the best way to denoise the current image to the one described in feature-space was to remove pixels that resulted in the image.

Don't humanize algorithms. They're applied statistics, not a sum of human experiences.
My layperson understanding was that the more atoms/bonds a molecule has, the less transparent it was to IR. Diatomic molucules like oxygen and nitrogen were pretty much transparent, molecules like CO2 and H2O were in the middle, and bigger ones like CH4 were less so.
Can you share the actual query you used?
Dropping rates doesn't really affect spending that much (but can contribute to increasing asset prices, like houses and stocks).

The whole thing is basically a cargo-cult kind of thing at this point. Need to stimulate? Drop rates. Inflation too high? Raise rates. But the theory doesn't actually match the real world, and it never actually does any good.

At this point, they'll keep raising rates either until some unrelated factor happens to moderate inflation, or their rate-raising unnecessarily causes a crash and big recession (which will reduce inflation, but really not in a good way).
how does scenario being run today? like Excel modeling?
This is a good question.

It's possible that the Coast Guard places high value on "good food" as part of their morale.

It's also possible that the nature of USCG operations prevent them from standardizing food onboard, since it sounds like part of this particular ship's mission brought it to various ports where supplies were not guaranteed.

There are 3 different levels of concurrency:

1. No concurrency

2. Concurrency on the same machine

3. Concurrency between machines

Of course there can be more distinctions, but those are very helpful for almost every case that I had to deal with.

Erlang's BEAM really nailes #3. The BEAM is just so cool, I'm surprised there are no similar products out there (if you know any, please tell me!).

Unfortunately for #2 I really don't like either Erlang nor Elixir. To nail 2, I found pure functional programming languages to be the best by far. They allow extreme precise control over concurrency on the same machine (be it single-threaded or multi-threaded), better than any other paradigm I've used (including actors for example). My preferred language here is Scala, but others are doing really well too.

I wish I could run Scala on the BEAM, since Akka (actors on the JVM) are just not nearly as good as the BEAM.
A lot of "hiring freeze" and some "lay offs". It's getting ugly.
Because the rent addition to inflation lags by nearly a year, the Fed is, in part, fighting last year's war for that.

(If I recall correctly, there is still plenty of inflation outside of rent in the current mix.

The Fed is fighting last year's war on the other inflations now because for some reason inflation wasn't a trouble until Powell's reconfirmation hearing this year.

The old saying of a stitch in time saves nine comes to mind...

Militaries tend not to do that, for obvious security reasons.
Speculative and tenuous hand-wringing about distant, unlikely use cases is not a compelling rebuttal. We know 12mp photos look good on 6 inch, high resolution screens. They even look good on desktop computers and TVs.

Why would you view 2D images in a stereoscopic 3D headset designed for video? Do existing photos look bad in current VR headsets because they lack resolution? I haven’t used any of the modern VR headsets but I’m willing to bet that there isn’t a significant difference between a 12mp and “48mp” iPhone 14 pro photo on a VR headset.

You’re also ignoring the context — of course higher resolution is better in isolation, no one would argue otherwise. But it comes with significant trade offs, like the FOUR SECOND capture time and the enormous file sizes.

If you want to print a cropped photo from an iPhone on a large poster (be honest — do you know anyone who currently prints iPhone photos on posters on a regular basis? I’d argue that hardly anyone prints iPhone photos at all nowadays, and especially not at large poster sizes), 12mp vs “48mp” isn’t going to make a difference, it’s going to look bad either way.

Anyone seriously concerned about their ability to print large format posters from cropped images is going to be using a full frame or medium format camera.

We know current iPhone photos look fine on 6inch high PPI displays (displays that already exceed the resolution of the human retina) and when printed at common sizes (4x6, 8.5x11). That’s never going to change. Making the iPhone camera workflow significantly worse for users now is not an acceptable trade off for vague, hypothetical future use- cases.
The Marines used to have a system for allowing civilians cook for the military. It's awful and I wouldn't recommend it. In-service cooks are much better and usually very skilled.

Addressing inflation when it shows up instead of claiming baselessly that it's transitory would have been much easier than what they're trying to do now.

There is an argument that what the Fed does is mostly irrelevant anyway until the supply chain problems are fixed. Volcker may have done the right thing back in 1981, and he may have been aided greatly by The oil shock being completely absorbed by higher efficiency and more production
It's a leaky ship. Arguing over who has to fix their holes first is pointless dithering and finger-pointing.
Hydrogen production via electrolysis has the property that it can be turned on and off nearly instantly. Aluminum electrolysis in molten cryolite must be kept running to maintain the temperature gradient between the molten electrolyte and the walls (if not maintained, either the walls overheat or the electrolyte freezes, ruining the cell.) The temperature for iron electrolysis in molten materials would be even higher.

One can imagine electrolyzing iron in aqueous solutions, but I understand this actually needs more energy than producing hydrogen and using that to reduce iron oxide. There is some electrolytic iron produced today, for applications that require very high purity (as high as 99.999%).

I don't think the problem here is a lack of centralization or standardization. The US's military logistics are well known for successfully (and unsuccessfully) applying both, and it's unlikely that USCG cooks are making custom three course meals for their ships.

Because obviously increasing borrowing costs will raise the cost of doing business, which will mean businesses will pass that on by raising prices. Oh, wait, that's pro-inflationary...

Well, I guess there is the bit that businesses striving to be efficient will try and trim the fat and lay off a bunch of employees, and those now unemployed will therefore be poorer and won't be able to afford to buy much. That, and making people give much more of their incomes to banks to service home loans will mean they don't have as much to spend. Funny how that works really, really well for bank shareholders...

If you look at surveys conducted even when the region was under Ukraine, you'll see that it's always had a very pro-Russia bias (Eastern Ukraine in general was staunchly opposed to the Euromaiden protests).

However, it's worth mentioning that Eastern Ukraine has also been heavily targeted with Russian propaganda for decades now and it's quite likely that had an impact. I haven't read into it, but I'd be surprised if they didn't also encourage Russians to move to Ukraine to make it more ethnically Russian. This is pretty much in the playbook of every colonizer (e.g. Israel with Palestine, Morocco with SADR, or China with Xinjiang).

There's no such thing as "infinitely abstract". All abstractions eventually become real-world given enough time. It's only a question of how far ahead of the curve they are and long it takes.
Absolutely they should have moved sooner, and it would have been much less painful. But I don't think there's any irrelevance to what they are doing now. Especially where shelter is concerned.
It means 'not every' in the technical sense, but otherwise extremely high. 'Literally all' would mean every single cook was Filipino.
It's a little more nuanced than being a traitor to science given China's strategy in regards to acquisition of scientific research and technology. China doesn't collaborate, it just takes until it reaches scientific and technological parity. Once parity is reached, China cuts collaboration agreements and keeps further advancements within China.

Not that many people in Tokyo live in single-family homes; towers and other multi-unit buildings are very common. It's very common to see older buildings torn down and replaced with taller buildings, so even though they're losing the units in the demolished building, there's a significant net gain in units.

And these days, I don't think anyone is demolishing a house after only 20 years. 40-50 years certainly; those structures are unsafe because they don't meet modern buildings codes. Anything built before ~1981 is considered generally unsafe.

> By that logic are we unfathomably wealthy because there are billions of planets out there teaming with resources?

No, because we don't have access to those resources.

> Do you think people 1000 years ago felt wealthy because of their natural resources and would feel that modern times are comparatively impoverished?

I have no idea what people 1000 years ago felt like. I do know what it feels like to live in 2022.

> What are the wealthiest countries in the world?

I don't know.

> I don't think the usage you're proposing matches any real usage of the word.

I am being very literal with the dictionary definition. With every gallon of oil that we burn, we are destroying wealth. We are taking a material resource that has value, extracting that value and preventing it from ever being used again. You can argue that the byproduct of that extraction is more valuable than the oil, but I find that very unlikely given that technology is likely to improve over time. In other words, we should try to conserve as many natural resources as we can today because they will be even more valuable in the future when we can use them more efficiently.
