He never says his brand. The company that makes hypervolt were around before 2018 and I still get emails from them so I assume they are still around. Their products are really nice and when my hypervolt battery died, they sent me new one no questions asked.

I assume he was selling a knock and his competitor was selling the exact same product. He just says he started whey hypervolt launched.
Right, it allows them to offer smaller pipes of 100 Mbit to users, which is a form of cost cutting. A true internet connection, the kind you'd get with your box in a colo or peering direct to an ISP or at an IX has symmetric uplink and downlink. The ISP is only willing to sell, say, 100 Mbit rather than the 180 Mbit equivalent a symmetric connection would provide.

Venus is much, much less studied than Mars. Partially because of the thick athmosphere making it hard to "look at", and mostly because equipment landed on Venus(mostly by the Soviets from the 60s through the 80s) has quickly deteriorated and lost contact due to the extremely acidic environment.

But it does seem like recent research suggests Venus may have had a liquid ocean of water about 3bn years ago before a runaway greenhouse effect occured, making it too hot.

Edit: Did some reading on it, and turns out the USSR did Venus landers well into the 80s, not just the 60s. Corrected that.

I think there’s a lot more at play than lack of good faith. It’s incredibly tantalizing and comforting to buy into a narrative that the other side is engaged in an unforgivable scandal that will eventually result in your side regaining power or moral superiority. We’re all trapped in an out of control rumor machine just in time for the arrival of AI generated misinformation.

I bought a cover set for my Legion 5 Pro, and the best one was made in China, available only in the US. Fortunately the price is low enough to avoid extra duties so Amazon will ship it for $10 overseas within a week. No buying from EU here lol.

Same with a trackball mouse - shipped from UK because there was no stock in EU.

I stopped with the "durr China quality bad" a long time ago because it just isn't. Everything is made in China and you can get cheap/shit or expensive/great.

The Framework laptop for example, can't buy that from China. Sold out in EU. Have to go through forwarding bs to import from US. eBay sellers don't even want to ship overseas. AliExpress sellers will ship it to the middle of the Pacific.

If you want to compete you need to do better, not just give up imo.

Another example is that after the Russians have occupied the Eastern European countries at the end of WWII and after they have installed there puppet governments, they have not only replaced the old administrations, but they have also sent most of their members, including many of those from the lowest levels, into prisons where many have died.

Moreover, the children who had parents or other close relatives who had belonged to the previous administrations were frequently blacklisted and thrown out from any high-level education institution and allowed to do only menial jobs with low qualification requirements.

> Considering I can't prove a negative, are you able to prove a positive?

Yes. In communist Poland "You submit the content for classification. With documentation. And they send it back with a detailed report of what needs to be censored" was used and designed to keep criticism of ruling class and ruling system out of public view.

----------------------------

Note that I am not claiming that NZ is currently abusing this system, or that NZ system is intended to provide such use.

I was responding to

> Because plenty of content on FB criticising New Zealand's politicians.

that is not really indicating anything, except lack of USSR-level censorship.

Maybe confusion was caused because I responded to

> But that sort of censorship is fine. You submit the content for classification. With documentation. And they send it back with a detailed report of what needs to be censored and why.

treating is a claim in general, not specifically about NZ

> My advice would be to get your hands dirty and try to build a product on top of some ML model

I second that. Grab Stable Diffusion and build something around it using your current experience. On the side I would suggest a structured training program as a Udacity Nano degree. Of course, you can do that on your own and for free, but having the structure and payed for it made it easier for me to stick to it.
Here are the parts of the statement I am disappointed with, to clarify, emphasis mine:

> *This system wasn't balanced.* It was based on contacts. ... there were more channels, more ways to complain, open to the left (well, Democrats) than the right.

I can certainly agree with the fact that 90+% of Big Tech employees vote Democrat (I'm not sure what "non-coder" has to do with it). 100% true.

I have worked at large corporations for a long time, so I know a second fact: corporate employees do not make any controversial decisions you will hear about as an outsider. At best we get to present feedback to our boss.

Here we see an employee making such a decision by themself; now let's make an assumption and say this was done to promote their leftist agenda. Within 24 hours, the decision is overridden and it is made clear who the real agenda-setters are at most Big Tech. I'll give you a hint: it's not the employees, and it was only 2% Jack.
> That's the state of ML today I guess <shrug>. It's only as good as what it was trained on [..]

Errm, that's not quite what this is about. Most (all?) of the training material's references are, well, real. As in, they actually exist.

Making up stuff when caught out by a line of questioning you haven't got a good factual answer for is the kind of thing my 7 year-old might do.
>For the past year I've been looking at all the progress happening in ML/AI and each day I'm more convinced that there's a lot of game-changing stuff that will come out of it (what we're seeing with Stable Diffusion and GPT3 are some examples of this).

Wow, I must admit that out of all big branches of computer science AI/ML is the least exciting for me. I don't know, but all that unreliability is just putting me off.

I do agree that it's better to have something automated in 90% instead of 0% or 40%, but the impossibility to getting it to 100% is annoying.

It's been like over a decade of huge hype on AI/ML and yet I feel like biggest applied AI/ML that affects my life directly or indirectly is search & ad industry or things like chat bots, but it's mehhh.

(emphasis on "100% sure" though. If such a system was widely deployed, it could also quickly turn into a Kafkaesque horror show if legitimate messages get caught in it)

Why would anyone expect a language model to admit that it "doesn't know" (unless explicitly asked to)? That's not what it's for. It's there to put together a string of words that's plausibly looking like an answer for a given prompt - that it can sometimes successfully reach for facts it was trained on while making up the answer is an added bonus, a side-effect of how it works.

> As I said, some sort of negotiated settlement is the way 90% of wars end. Proposing such is not "pretty much exactly what Russia wants", especially when Russia already occupied about 20% of Ukraine before February.

A negotiated settlement is not predicated on Ukraine ceding territory to Russia. Why shouldn't Russia cede territory to Ukraine over this war instead?.

> "pretty much exactly what Russia wanted" as of February was to conquer Kiev rapidly, kill Zelensky and decapitate the Ukrainian government, and quickly end the war with it either absorbing all of Ukraine or much of it with a puppet regime in power ruling the remainder. That failed. Now the best it can likely hope for is some sort of negotiated deal as per above. That does not mean that the complete opposite of Russia's February goal—Russia forced out of all of eastern Ukraine, and even Crimea—is the likely outcome for Ukraine, either.

Russias goals have likely, and continue to change, but it's clear that they want at least some of Ukraine.

> I repeat: Musk is a citizen of a country which is not actually a combatant in the war. The US has not declared war on Russia, there are no American troops fighting within Ukraine's borders, and the US embassy in Moscow remains open (and vice versa). Insta-denouncing any remark that isn't "Anything short of 100% victory for Ukraine = Putler wins!!!111!!1!!!" as wrongthink is just fatuous.

Anything short of a Ukrainian victory really just shows Russia they can send in their troops and meet at least some of their goals by concessions. This is detrimental to the entire world, which would be best off is Russia losses decisively and gets nothing of what it wants.

WASM is a runtime only. It does not try to define a component model. And that's a bonus for its wider appeal and adoption.

You can treat WASM just like you treat a CPU architecture. One among many. It does its thing and does it reasonably well (official 64 bit support would be awesome though).

But trying to tie a component model to a specific CPU is kind of a bad idea, don't you think so? For me it causes immediate Intel iAPX 432 vibes and I fear that WASM may diverge in that utopian direction some day.
> It's not impossible for people in NZ to see these materials; academics, journalists and so on can apply for permits to obtain and possess the material. Absent that, possession is, as I understand it, a crime, but one with a very low chance of being caught. The primary intent of the law is to have a strong sanction to prevent people distributing it and inciting similar incidents in the future.

This is not accurate. After the incident the NZ police were demanding that websites turn over IP logs for people accessing the manifesto or video, using that to get subscriber info from ISPs, and then attempting to imprison people for up to 14 years just for mere possession of illegal information [0].

And the idea that someone would have to get a license to see that material is just fundamentally offensive to the idea of free expression and access to information. For one, anyone who does journalism is a journalist, whether they have a Twitter account or a CNN primetime show. The NZ government should butt right out of attempting to gatekeep the profession that holds them to account. There is an overwhelming public interest in the populace being able to access that material, despite its extremely horrific and offensive nature. For one, it is evidence used to convict a man for multiple murders. A fundamental principle of a fair justice system is an open court system, and that means allowing people to access and examine the court transcripts and exhibits, including the videos and documents. It was also just an extremely newsworthy event that affected millions of people in New Zealand (public policy changes) and at least hundreds of millions worldwide [1]. It's quite Orwellian to cite this as the inciting incident for restricting the right of free expression and seizing firearms, while not even letting citizens examine the evidence first-hand! That's how we end up with crazy conspiracy theories about crisis actors.

Here's a better example: the Canadian trucker protests. GiveSendGo was hacked, and the names of people who had donated to the protests were made public - and Twitter had no problem with those "hacked materials" being shared on its platform.

I'd think that if there was ever a reason to block the publication of hacked materials, it would be to prevent private individuals from being doxxed, not to protect the political interests of the worlds' most powerful people.

(People, please don't reply to tell me why you didn't like the Canadian truckers' political views, it's not relevant.)

We had a local amazon competitor that opened up its store to chinese sellers too, and it shows. Basically the same garbage fake products end up on searches for brand name products. I don't get why the real stores using them for selling next to their own still do? Also the main company skirts liability and returns and acts like its not their problem.
What actual incentives do they have to effectively respond to this? Any one of these issues takes manpower to resolve, especially in complex situations like these were multiple sellers report each other.

And is it actually impacting their buisiness? Does amazon actually really care which dropshipper or chinese seller wins out on their platform?
In all likelihood they sold even more products because of this feud, 40$ for some review significantly reduces the price for the consumer of the product.
