SEPA Direct Debit has pretty good UX, I find. Just enter the bank account number, accept terms, done. In theory it's a bit more complicated as for B2C you're supposed to collect a real signature (which no one does) and for B2B there are additional rules (which most merchants also ignore), but in practice it works reasonably well. B2B SEPA direct debit is also much better for the merchant as money that has been successfully transferred cannot be refunded, unlike credit card payments where you can get chargebacks for 120 days...
I think the current ones are the way they are because the input temperature is not well controlled. I live in an old farmhouse where the cold water gets really cold in the winter and for years we've had a tankless water heater that has never worked that well but lately has gotten full of scales. We haven't tried descaling it because we're concerned that we'll kill it in the process of descaling it and won't try it unless we have a replacement lined up.

All of that means that the input temperatures are poorly controlled even when the heater is working.

The very large range of mixing ratios helps compensate for uncontrolled input temperatures. If the input temperature was better controlled (say with a thermostatic function) you might be able to calibrate the valves to a user-appropriate range, but barring that you'd need to put a thermostat right after the valve.
That is EEE, no?

> Where is this—possibly wrong—assumption documented?

Presumably in the compiler documentation. Although the assumption was made merely to ensure that we understood that each algorithm choice was functionally equivalent, to continue in the theme of discussion.

> which may or may not hold in the future?

Totally fair. Let's say your choice, which was fine at the time of choosing, with a later compiler update does get optimized in a new way that that longer satisfy your application's requirements. How do you plan to keep up with that if you don't have automated tests to prove whether or not your code still operates within your expectations?

> But you given up already on this line of argumentation anyway, I see ;-)

No, but I was still working on getting a concrete example in which we can build a test or two for to provide a demonstration. Unfortunately, the vague sorting suggestion still isn't concrete. What are you sorting? Which algorithm did you choose and why? I had hoped that if I rephrased the question you would feel more comfortable coming out of your shell, but I can see your worry remains. Back in my day education was something to get excited about so I struggle to understand, but recognizing your uncomfortableness now I'll not needle you further and apologize for not seeing it sooner.
What laws, exactly? US Wikipedia has many images far more graphic than a nipple. We have television with full frontal nudity (both genders). Maybe you're thinking of broadcast television, which does have relatively strong restrictions before 10pm (IIRC, could be off on the exact time of day).
All those are safe hipster options these days...
It's not clear what you mean by "based on". For example, the model Anything is trained on the Danboru anime image site. These images aren't in the standard Stable Diffusion model. The issue with that model is with the legality of including those images which the standard Stable Diffusion model does not.

I think the crux of it is that in many places in the world, credit cards are seen less like "temporary float" (like they are in the US) and more like "you pay for everything with a short term loan"?

So CCs are a lot less common. Bank cards (debit) are a lot more common. But (and feel free to correct me on this) I think their fraud handling story is still not as good as the story on credit cards.

So PayPal is seen as not-debt and also provides more fraud protection. And somehow despite their absurdly bad rap elsewhere, people look favorably upon the PayPal brand. And so here we are.
Speaking as someone who likes to cook, and hates wading through pages of SEO bait to find the actual recipe, it seems like in principle it wouldn't be too hard to write a search engine specialized for recipes that heavily penalizes longwindedness.

Surely not your entire problem, but at least one of those roundfilings of your resume could be anti-FAANG bias, or bias against a particular FAANG.

A recruiter for a hot technical-excellence company (the kind you might think would poach the strongest FAANG people), told me that an exec was explicitly uninterested in candidates from a particular FAANG.

(I forget the exact rationale, but it was something like a belief that people from there having learned the wrong lessons about engineering or product.)

They don't need new ones, they need flying ones, yesterday. The proposed swaps with various NATO countries like Bulgaria sounded like the best option - Ukraine gets jets they can fly today, and the other country gets an upgrade for their help.

Sometimes they could still do with more detail, especially when using imprecise imperial measurements. The one that I find most irritating is using volume measurements for non-liquids, e.g. cup of flour (sifted or not?), or ratios, where it's not specified if it's a weight:weight or volume:volume ratio.

DFW is the classic example of prose which is incredibly pleasing to read, but isn't actually better at conveying information. He routinely expands banal topics in philosophy into pages. I don't think his intent was ever to bring the reader up to speed on a topic, or convince the reader of a particular philosophical position though.

Many people try to emulate his style, usually they fail, and if they succeed it works against the purpose of their writing, which for most people, most of the time, is to communicate an idea.
The truth that some people were not able to negotiate but resorted to the most violent method possible to get their will?

Things it performed badly for me (our of sample):

- Implement quadratic voting (a concept defined in Radical Markets by Weyl). When trying to explain it, it still invented smth that looked good

- Implement a First in first out calculation to file tax returns where within a 1 year holding period, tax rate is 0%. It calculated some really implausible stuff and it seemed easier to just figure it out myself.

- there were many such cases for me, but also good outcomes too

Linkedin, for example, shows the number of applicants to a job posting. Which may or may not be true, and of course, you cannot know how many of those applicants could even be remotely considered realistic. But if you see a position with 150 applicants already, I think it is a good indication that you are not alone...

Muslims are not as a rule poly amorous. Only a select few. Mormons are a very very small portion of society.

Through millennia of cultural iteration we have arrived at monogamy and for good reason. You can already see what a society without monogamy is starting to look like. Thanks to Tinder, birth control and degradation of family values you get a lot of single mothers and 'incels' that have little to no incentive to contribute to society and every incentive to play video games and waste their life away. All from the fact that a few man have sex with all the women and society accepts it

I kinda disagree. We've made some leaps and bounds, but our actual "progress" has mostly been defined by orgs like OpenAI throwing money at the problem. It's only technological progress in the sense that grinding stone bricks is "technological" or "progress".

The difference between ChatGPT and Talk to Transformer is frankly not that large, at least when treated as a black-box. 90% of the people freaking out over ChatGPT on Twitter would have also freaked out over the original GPT, had they known it existed. The extra nuance that we're adding on feels like stalling, and while some of the optimizations have been cool (gpt-neo-2.7b, Stable Diffusion) it feels like we're hitting the top of our progress curve.
I also wonder how much of it is a perception among the blog authors that they have to make their recipes long winded for SEO reasons. They see everyone else doing it, there's an information cascade, and they believe (perhaps incorrectly) that they also must do it.
And even more. I really hate IT and do it just for money, but since IT jobs pays well and don't require more than 8 hours a day, I can finally dedicate myself to things I'm really interested in, i.e. learning new languages, visiting new places, buying rare and expensive books on my favorite subjects.
I think it's also worth remembering that this isn't just some random quirk but something actively cultivated by many social groups. Many religious encourage that us-versus-them divide because it's a very effective mechanism for keeping people from leaving (my experience with this was fundamentalist Christianity where shunning was practiced so anyone breaking with official doctrine was going to have to give up most of their friends/family and possibly even a marriage), and the Republican Party relies on the “help, we're being oppressed!” mythology to keep people riled up and donating/voting no matter who the candidate is.

In both cases, tolerating nuance would make it harder to control the message since disagreement could lead to power shifting away from the current top of the hierarchy. Unsurprisingly the people who benefit from that are strongly opposed to sharing.
IMHO the shift is from job to gig.

Human brains can produce near duplicates of things they have seen in the past.

Of course, like an human, an NN can be used to generate copyright infringing images, but it doesn't follow that any generated image is infringing.

Absolutely disagree. The trend of censoring people that depict Mohammed is relatively recent - nobody cared about the Superfriends episode back around 2000 - and giving in to it gives grounds to the same people that attack ex-Muslims for leaving Islam.
What would have happened had Twitter not complied with said suggestions? To the company, to the executives, to regular employees?

The threat of that is very real.
don't want to jump on your brigade, but at AnyQuestions.ai we specialise in quality PDF and transcript processing for AI-answer purposes (supporting AI answers with citations, just like your tool for documentation). This comes from 3 years working on tech to parse lecture slides correctly, identifying semantic areas (e.g. what is a title, how are bullet points connected...) turns out this is useful for semantic search and other purposes of embedding. You can verify this somewhat by viewing how transcripts get bunched if you upload a youtube video, or if you search for PDF results (bullet points will be resolved to what they refer to etc as appropriate)

Would love to chat with you if you're up for it - you can test demo run our tool and contact us through the interface

> Humans are “good” at language precisely because we combine thought with its expression.

Human's "thought" had many pitfalls and fallacies than most people realize. An AI has to be "stupid" enough to mimic 100% human thought behavior. For example "in Scotland there exists at least one field, containing at least one sheep, at least one side of which is black"
That doesn't match the Abrahamic conception of God though which is the point here. In fact, that God is almost the opposite of what you've described.
But isn't that model still mixed with the core SD model? I was under the impression that all of these specialized models are created by training against a particular image type/dataset, and then mixing the result with the core SD model.

This is how those specialized models can still generate just about anything. Without the core model mixed in, the specialized model would be nearly useless.

It gives us nonsense because it's goal is to generate something that looks like it fits in with training data. You can have training data that is all completely factual and still have a generator spit out nonsense that looks completely correct without fact-checking.
> I think we can all agree

You'd be wrong. Many of us think that judging content by whether it offends someone is a terrible idea. Viewers should self-censor if they find something objectionable rather than subject everyone else to their personal opinions.
while it may be tempting to condense the concern to the most virulent objections of an extreme, it bears remembrance that Pakistan is the only country to have been created in the name of Islam. the Holy Quran and Sunnah are effectively the books by which this nation is governed, and as such any charge of blasphemy is taken with a seriousness bordering on the academic.

this blasphemy charge could stem from any of the big 8, but the specific charges would be laid out in an almost arduous detail to the The Federal Shariat Court to make the case. only the supreme court of Pakistan can overrule the FSC.

Indeed, whenever bigcos get onboard something in flashy ways, its mostly a me too gimmick with the purpose of providing cover for something nasty and at the same time gaining favor over their competition who are caught flat-footed and not taking advantage of this cover: one of the prim examples is Apple's manufacturing. On the one hand they project an aura of justice and caring, whatever, and on the other hand, they still use metals sourced under dire conditions and have their phone manufactured under less than ideal conditions --meanwhile, back in the West they pretend they are all for the good things every upstanding citizen stands for.

You can lower the bounds significantly. Images do not require comparison to all others, and the presented approach to detecting and deduplicating images in the paper is easily adapted to be near linear (trading for storage or cleverness).

Put simply, do you expect google image search to compare your image to every other possible image? No, they're going to embed it to a vector (512d in the paper) and only compare to probable matches; in the paper they start by brute forcing pairwise comparison of the vectors for the dataset, and then use clique finding to go faster when checking their generated images.
The friction is 2 clicks (right-click + show git annotations). And you can leave it open, it's just a small thin strip near the code.

I always check git blame before committing a new code, because I've had this exact experience several times:

- investigate a bug
- find the responsible line with obviously wrong code (often it's even nicely commented and the comments and the code are contradictory)
- fix the obviously wrong code
- commit
- 10 other bugs caused by your fix
- git blame
- turns out the "obviously wrong" line was there on purpose and your fix effectively removed a previous change
- which you would know if you checked the git blame for that line
- comments were lying because somebody did a refactor and didn't noticed 4 lines above there's a whole paragraph of what now became lies

This is Chesterton's Fence rule of programming. Before you change a line of code - be sure to understand why it was there. Git blame is the best tool for that.

BTW there's a similar rule for comments - when you change a line of code in some function - you have to check all the callers of that function (and their callers, etc.) to see if there were any comments near the callers talking about the part that you changed. THAT is the thing that nobody does in practice, and THAT's the reason why comments eventually lie.
