“ Abstract: We present the MCscales approach for incorporating scale uncertainties in parton distribution functions (PDFs). The new methodology builds on the Monte Carlo sampling for propagating experimental uncertainties into the PDF space that underlies the NNPDF approach, but it extends it to the space of factorisation and renomalisation scales. A prior probability is assigned to each scale combinations set in the theoretical predictions used to obtain each PDF replica in the Monte Carlo ensemble and a posterior probability is obtained by selecting replicas that satisfy fit-quality criteria. Our approach allows one to exactly match the scale variations in the PDFs with those in the computation of the partonic cross sections, thus accounting for the full correlations between the two. We illustrate the opportunities for phenomenological exploration made possible by our methodology for a variety of LHC observables. Sets of PDFs enriched with scale information are provided, along with a set of tools to use them.”

I'm not so sure, there's a base of Reddit users who submit 80 percent of content and comments and do the moderation, this is maybe 10 percent of the entire user base. If they lost this base the quality of content would plunge and people would start getting board and look for something better.
Then it probably wouldn't be hard to have increasing penalties for shorter durations, very especially sub-minute durations.

Why? You don’t need to be able to understand a cipher to produce plausible cipher text. You can take headers and footers from real messages and just drop in nonsense between. Or retransmit messages you recorded a few days earlier, or random mixtures of bits of real messages. The enemy still has to transcribe them, sort them out, reject the noise.

> If you're calculating millimeters, you want to be using .001 and .002, not 1.001 and 1.002.

I think if millimeters are what's important, one should represent them as '1' and '2', no? That's what I meant by keeping things near 1 (apologies for my clumsy language). I mean whatever unit you care about should be approximately "1 unit" in its float representation.

But yes, thank you for helping enunciate these things (:
Hello, yaseer. Thanks for your comments. Actually,here is my linkedIn profile.[1] I have had a wonderful life to date. Like everyone else, wonderful achievements and devastating disappointments. Life comes at us hard sometimes. For me I have always believed I did the best I could with the information I had available. So when something bad happens, its never the end of the world, so it isn't the event that is important, it is how you respond to the event that is important. I'm happy to wake up in the morning and realize that I am just a small grain of sand on a very big beach.Thanks for asking. [1]https://www.linkedin.com/in/dearmontydotcom/
My experience with the gas filling in the region was:

- pull up to station in Oregon unaware, exit the vehicle and approach the pump. An attendant runs up to me yelling "You can't do that!! That's DANGEROUS!!"

- pull up to station in Washington, sit there. Didn't realize I was in Washington and nobody was coming to pump my gas.

- not knowing whether I am supposed to tip the attendants in Oregon. Different people told me varying things.

- feeling relieved to be in Washington and being able to simply pump my own gas without talking to anyone

Some Oregonians told me they enjoyed not having to get out of their car and thought the system was great. Also many had never pumped gas in their entire lives and weren't comfortable doing it when in other states. If this system existed in very cold places I've lived like Northern Minnesota I would have been quite happy about it - I don't mind a little wind and rain, but getting out to pump gas when it's -20 with a 30 degree wind chill is not comfortable.

Just because you don't have a dedicated word for something, doesn't mean that it is a foreign concept. In Arabic and Hebrew there's no dedicated verbs for "to have" or "to be" in the present tense, and yet these societies understand ownership and existence in the present perfectly. You can't take, like, two words from a language, and then say something meaningful about a whole society.

Americans always eyeing to strip Russia of their resources. You can check out how much illegality with American troops selling just oil in Iraq and northern Syria. Russia has huge access to artic with methane ice reserve that exceeding multiple Saudi's oil reserve. Russia has uranium, gold, iron, rare earths, and tons of other minerals exceeding multiple USA. There is simply no possibility of Russia viewed as ally unless USA itself fractured into multiple countries (in some eastern prophecies this is a possibility - even John Titor mentioned it in his timeline - read the version copyrighted in Library of Congress and not subsequent addons).
> You'd have to uproot how the western world works to get us back to how we evolved to be healthy and survive on this planet.

To take it literally, it is impossible for eight billion humans (current world population estimate) to live as migratory hunter-gatherers on earth, even if the planet was terraformed back to how it was ten thousand years ago. It's highly unlikely even eight hundred million people people can live like this. In fact, it's possible there are not enough resources that even eighty million can live like this.

So aside from the terraforming, world population would probably have to shrink to less than 1% of what it is currently.
I actually would find it quite unlikely that this is LLM output, if only because I bet it would have instantly been censored the moment it uttered something alike to "Heil Hitler"
So roughly $100k/(5*120 tons CO2) + 2 million kWh/(5*120 ton CO2) --> 5*2300 Mcf

Ie $167 + 3333 kWh will turn 1 ton CO2 into 19 Mcf

At $0.10/kWh, this is equivalent to paying $500 to remove 1 ton of CO2 from the atmosphere. This goes down to $300 if we assume solar can generate power at $0.04/kWh, particularly off-grid and without need for storage.

And it apparently turns out that the Inflation Reduction Act subsidizes the synthetic natural gas at $54/Mcf, so if we sell about 4.7 Mcf at $64 we've effectively gotten the government to pay $250 to remove 0.8 tons from the atmosphere.

This sounds interesting, as a first step.

I can’t speak for GP but I laughed out loud when I read about how the author of this article knows how to “cure depression”.

Aside from the ignorance of brain chemistry, situational factors that can contribute to depression, and the glaringly obvious fact of the subjectivity of how depression is experienced, the hubris to assert that this blogger ~knows the cure ~ inspires very little confidence in their credibility.

For example, if you read me the first few sentences of this article and then said “This was written by someone that doesn’t provide any reason to trust their reasoning” I would not be surprised. In fact if you told me that the person that brags about their cure for depression in their blog was not very bright, I wouldn’t see cause to argue with you.

She's essentially arguing that long-term happiness is an evolved signal that someone is on the right evolutionary path. It's the emotional self-help equivalent of a prosperity gospel.

Her argument can best be illustrated by a paragraph from another article titled How I cured myself with evolutionary psychology [1]

> In order to cure my depression, I did the evolutionary psychology thing hard-core: I got married and had children. I dropped out of university. I moved to the countryside. I started to renovate and build houses and to grow food for my family.

As far as I can tell, she has no training as an evolutionary psychologist. It's self help woo woo wrapped up in barely coherent scientific jargon - that demographic loves evolutionary psychology because it can be used to spin any story you wish about why humans are the way they are.

I'm not sure about not permitting, but I remember getting gas for a rental car in Paris, from one of these sidewalk places (looks nothing like a gas station; parisians, hopefully you know what I mean), and I sure was happy when the attendant came out to pump it for me. I wouldn't have known what to do at all.
>The various stories I've seen about Japan - with low rents, falling house prices and large numbers of abandoned houses - seem to map with the falling Japanese population.

What you're hearing isn't accurate. Rents are going up in Tokyo, not down. Sure, there's a bunch of abandoned houses way out in remote rural areas, but no one wants to live there (for good reason). Housing prices do seem a lot more stable than in Anglosphere nations, however, and they're constantly building new housing (and knocking down old buildings to make way for them). Just like many other places, the population is concentrating in the big cities, so the population is generally rising there. However, unlike the US in particular, the Japanese yen has fallen a lot in value during the pandemic, and combined with recent inflation, this might have something to do with the recent rise in rents.

Conan, what is best in life?

I don’t think we can look too much at our ancestors to conjure a definition of happiness.

It’s probably wrong to labor under the idea that people ought to be happy.

The fact that the human mind has such an infinite capacity for suffering and misery, while on the other hand having relatively less capacity for happiness, suggests that our minds are predisposed to not being happy, or not being happy for too long.
The solution would have been to reduce population growth to a sustainable level more than a decade ago.
>>>> 800's Turkey

The Byzantines primary language was Greek. Followed by Latin, and included most of what is today, modern Turkey.

Turkey was not even a thought at that time. Calling it Turkish would be appropriation of the Greek culture.
“intending” seems like an unfortunate phrasing there.

Is Android actually verifying this, or can this be used to misrepresent what’s going on?
Yet other times the lack of that word denotes a different perspective on that subject.

Short term or long term happiness isn’t differentiated in the untied states. I don’t think of happiness in terms of long or short term. Just as a temporary state that hopefully last a long time.

Think of all the words we use to express love in English. In Chinese a word technically exists for love but it’s not used between people more for things but even then it’s not the same word. This is a perfect example of the characteristics of a language representing a change of perception on something as powerful as expressing love.
What comparison are you making? That rabbits are also a problem like the introduced species in New Zealand are a problem? It's true, they are.

It's harder to exterminate all the rabbits because Australia is a much bigger geography than New Zealand.
I'm an ABCD and never found it offensive , since I refer to myself as one and it's a non-issue if another ABCD uses to refer to me with that term.

Interesting way to put it, but is it particularly insightful? You're happy when you're doing things you think you should be doing, and what you think you should be doing is of course determined by evolution, modulo random mutations. I don't see how this helps me in any constructive way though. It is an intriguing thought exercise though.
It also goes the other way around. Who would be right here?
So weird when people with such obvious limited life experience try to surmise "how things work" based on that limited experience.

That's not science, that's how we got severely warped things like religion.

> in which case it'd have caused a bunch of speculation about whether Arthurian myth elements would suddenly become important

Funny enough, in the recent Hogwarts Legacy game they have dozens of these little world puzzles called Merlin Trials, effectively actually tying Arthurian myth into the Harry Potter universe via Merlin, who was apparently a Slytherin?

But arguably the game is not canon to the books.

It's just funny because if Rowling HAD ever said something about a character being descended from King Arthur, it might have made a mention in the game.

Mixed media canons can become very convoluted.

My parents moved to the city when they had kids. Specifically to enable a better life for us. More access to friends, better schools, more independence, better extracurriculars, more family time because no commute, etc. It was pretty great.

Living in the city also made college affordable because we could just live at home and walk to school.
