Each book is best at answering questions on its own source material. For now though, it will sometimes answer stuff not related to the book.

The litmus test I use is always asking a new book "Do you know anything about the Chamber of Secrets" -- often times will say no. Sometimes will return the most semantically similar thing it can find.

It’s not really that hard to figure out, unfortunately. It gets trickier for moving targets… but it’s still not that hard. These days, the easiest way is just to use a neural network trained in a simulator. You don’t even have to understand the math or even fully grep the sensor/image processing. The methods used for conventional targeting systems are actually pretty well documented.

Hobbiests are already making self landing (spacex-style) model rockets. That is a much harder problem.

Is it actually doing that? Like it seems to have some good stuff for early history - euclid's elements and what not, but i'm not sure what the theme is for the later books, and lots of it seems very applied, or just other sciences that use math and not really about math itself.

That said, i haven't read most of these, so maybe i am wrong.

1. I have seen that page multiple times. For starters, what does it have to do with plutocracy? Do you know there are different forms of democracy? What does a direct democracy have to do with plutocracy? You seem to conflate true democracy with direct democracy.

You can have a true democracy that is indirect and not plutocratic. You can assert otherwise but nothing in the definitions contradict that.

2. We seem to be going back and forth. But it seems you don't have any country that matches your original definition

3. > As for my specific response, the existence of a non-global power example to me is irrelevant, since it’s unlikely to change the course of humanity. If you have an example, specific counter point, request for clarification, etc — happy to attempt to respond.

This is another strange shift in the thread. I am *not* asking for a non-global power that will impact the course of humanity. My simple original request was just a single power that fits your *original* definition of true democracy (not the modified one you suddenly have presented here).

It is not irrelevant as a true democratic non-global power can become a huge power (thanks to true democracy^TM).

The key demand is that they get the same minimum wage Google promises its extended workforce across the USA ($15/hr), not California minimum wage ($15.50/hr). The article subhead and first paragraph mention (not attributed to a complaint of the workers) that they make less than CA minimum wage, but that is not the issue, and the article correctly notes the workers demands later on.

Are you looking for a book to learn proofs from? Are you looking to learn any math topics in particular?

I think you can go through any of the books you listed and get an understanding of proofs. The proofs books usually use basic number theory or set theory for examples because the point is to learn the logic and structure of proofs. (If the book isn't enough for you, you can use Khan Academy as a refresher.) Learning more math is left to other books.

I looked through the table of contents for the ones you've linked, but neither looks like an upper year math book. Typically, if there is an explicit course on proofs, it's covered in the lower division.

The proofs course I took used "Mathematical Proofs: A Transition to Advanced Mathematics" by Chartrand, Polimeni, and Zhang. It's ridiculously expensive on Amazon right now, so I'm not sure I can recommend it for the cost. But it does cover more areas of math using proofs. It covers proofs in set theory, number theory, combinatorics, calculus, and group theory at a very basic level. The books you linked seem to cover less of those topics, so I think Chartrand et al. is a more gentle intro to different branches of upper division math.
nope. why give away capability?

Hi. I'm Lenore Skenazy. I wrote that article and run Let Grow, a nonprofit promoting childhood independence, which grew out of the Free-Range Kids movement. (I wrote Free-Range Kids.) At Let Grow we are working to change state neglect laws so they clarify that neglect is ONLY when you put your kid in serious, obvious and likely danger -- not ANY TIME you take your eyes off them, or anytime someone doesn't like your parenting style. Four states have passed these "Reasonable Childhood Independence" laws and five states are considering them this year. Find out more (and, if you'd like, help out) at LetGrow.org .

Exciting to see AI used this way. My main feedback is I'd look at incorporating other factors to rank results, not purely how similar it sounds. Audiophiles might prefer a pure similarity ranking, but that could be offered as a non-default setting if anything.

e.g. I'm sometimes seeing several essentially identical tracks at the top of recommendations (also mentioned in a comment by rayshan). You probably want to penalise tracks like that so they're pushed well down the list, i.e. penalise matches by metadata similarity (artist, title, etc).

OTOH I think it should boost results from more popular songs/artists, so the top result is less likely to be an obscure result that happens to sound similar. Some might argue it's a good thing to discover/highlight obscure artists, but for most users, it's more practical to recommend results that are already "proven" to be appealing. More obscure results could still be blended in if highlighting them is seen as a goal of the project.
What model/architecture did you use? Also curious about the process with that. Did you use an off the shelf model (like Jukebox) to embed the tracks?

The market cares not what you think the value of an asset should be. By default, at some instant, the market is right. If you disagree, there are instruments with which you can express said disagreement and earn a profit for being correct.

By the way, the flow of Tether inbound is the flow of market participants purchasing USDT with cash equivalents. So sure, "the flow of dollars into the stock market is the only thing keeping META from its natural price of $5" is a statement anyone can make.

> Most physics revolutions refine rather than replace their predecessors.

No. You are describing advancement, not revolution. Physics revolutions cause paradigm shifts. The difference between relativity ( refinement ) and quantum physics ( revolution ).

> So, for instance, gr gives similar predictions to to Newtonian gravity in an appropriate limit.

GR wasn't a revolution. It was adding onto and refining newtonian physics. As in newton gave us the laws of gravity, einstein showed us what gravity is.

> It is possible that relativity will be refined by further developments (quantum gravity?)

That's impossible because relativity cannot exist in a quantum world. Relativity/newtonian physics is deterministic, quantum physics is non-deterministic. Quantum physics gives us true randonmess whereas the relativistic world cannot.

> Hoping that exotic physics will allow ftl travel is like hoping that an exotic theory of gravity

No. I'm just pointing out that it's silly and naive to assume that physics will remain stagnant forever. Forever being the key word. Especially, as I pointed out, since modern physics cannot account for 95% of matter.

2000 years ago, someone could reasonably say man would never reach space because the current understanding of physics was so lacking. Today someone could also say man would never travel between the stars. But they would be assuming that no advancements in physics and knowledge would occur.
Is the opt-in versus opt-out point at the end of the article really important? Even if the compiler is opt-in you could use a separate tool to enforce preventing unsafe memory idiom usages unless annotated (akin to linters from other languages), and C++ codebases don't tend to have the same sprawling uses of third-party libraries that other languages do.

>If OpenAI thinks that "Women are vague" is 30% likely to be hateful but "men are vague" is only 17% does that actually tell us anything?

If that held out over hundreds of "placebo epithets," it would tell you that the filter was using the presence of the word "woman" as a signifier for hate speech independently of its context. You wouldn't be able to discover that fact by looking at things that got scored 99% because they are already at the top of the scale, and made equal by that effect.

Tried Erreur 404 by L'Impératrice[1], and I noticed the beat of the other recommended songs were eerily similar!! I'd argue your project is actually too good.

Where Spotify's Discover Weekly tried to connect you to music other people listen to {B, C, D, ...} because you've listened to a particular song {A} {B...->A}, your model quite literally tried to find other music {A₂} that sounds like what you're looking for {A₁} {A₂->A₁}.

Edit: OK, some of these are actually pretty dope...

Guidance is a big no no because it’s bad for the whole hobby. We basically self govern so not to cause problems.

And it was only detected by accident!

> On January 16, 1984, a radiation detector at Los Alamos National Laboratory in the U.S. state of New Mexico detected the presence of radioactivity in the vicinity. The detector went off because a truck carrying rebar produced by Achisa had taken an accidental detour and passed through the entrance and exit gate of the laboratory's LAMPF technical area.[6] Local authorities realized that the rebar triggered the alert and notified Mexico's National Commission on Nuclear Safety and Safeguards [es] (CNSNS) on January 18. CNSNS confirmed a wide dispersion of radioactive material had occurred and ordered Achisa to suspend the distribution of manufactured rebar until it was verified that it was not contaminated. Mexican authorities also proceeded to close the junkyard.[4]
From the point of view of somebody who works in residential last mile internet service loon was always a pipe dream, because you'd need a truly absurd number of them to provide persistent packet-loss-free 24x7x365 coverage over a USA county sized area.

No, Tether has prevailed because 1 USDT has remained redeemable for approximately 1 USD since inception. That's it. More entities shorting USDT would not change that fact.

So, by all means, find a venue to short USDT. Build one if it doesn't exist. If lucrative enough, you will likely find parties willing to take the other side of that bet.
