"The president is the sole representative and spokesperson of the states" can bypass the entrenched clause.

But something obvious the senate can block is not it. An amendment that gives the presidemt power to suspend congress during a national crisis or for national securitu will do the trick too, it is a bit obvious but people might be ok with it if a crisis or war is big enough. The only thing preventing a dictatorship is the senate who serve longer terms than the president. Being able to suspend the senate (the VP had a role!?) without an amendment is even more powerful if the majority party is for the dictatorship. General elections can be delayed indefinetly.
I was recently cleaning out some cabinets at my parent's house, and I found a box of clip art. It was spread over 50 disks and cost $50 (price tag was still on it). Probably from around 1990.

A cubic meter is ~264 gallons.

Here in my area of California (CA has lots of water agencies, so YMMV) 1000 gallons costs $38.66 (varies based on total consumption).

So that's $10.21 for a cubic meter.

How much do you actually know about this? Have you read the ELF spec or written anything with libelf, hacked on a loader, a linker? Considered the actual problems with having this hard coded vs alternatives?

I ask because ELF and unix dynamic linking is a pretty well thought out set of specifications and processes and it's a huge body of work. It can certainly be criticized, but calling it an afterthought because of .interp doesn't seem very charitable, just trying to understand if that's an informed opinion and if so it would be interesting to hear more.

(1) yes, will have an additive warming effect

(2) no, unlikely to be having any effect yet

(3) maybe noticably at ground level for five years .. perhaps measurably (with sensitive instruments looking at the right things) at the tropopause and above for a bit longer.

In context "∼10% of the stratospheric burden" means that all in one hit the stratosphere got about 10% of the maximum water load it can carry (before physics makes any extra fall away).

As I understand it the stratosphere was running a bit under "normal" water load, so this rates as a top up and a bit of a push over 'normal' - the main thing that longer term models will look at is how this plays out the longer term rise and fall of water being pushed up into and sucked back out of the stratosphere through tropical storms and other such actions.

The (2) "no, not yet" is due to more lag than you might expect - it only happened 18 months ago and we are still lagging on the expected heating due to occur due to increased thermal insulation from CO2 released into the troposhere five years ago.

The key phrase from both the JPL presser release and source paper is:

The effect would dissipate when the extra water vapor cycles out of the stratosphere and would not be enough to noticeably exacerbate climate change effects.

It's on a 'short' (decadal) time scale and atmosphere wonks will absolutely notice the effect, for many others it'll be just another transient minor factor in a bigger picture.

Or not .. but that won't surface for another few years yet in anothr research paper.

Of course it's possible. The question is whether anyone finds it worth doing.

ML algorithms are, at their core, not particularly complicated code. But they are still tricky code, because if you get them wrong you will find that you spent 500 GPU-years turning random numbers that cause the model to output gibberish into other random numbers that cause the model to output different yet semantically identical gibberish.

Writing them in a more abstract languages has advantages - like automatic differentiation. You could explicitly tell the computer how to compute the output and its derivative, or you could tell the computer how to compute the output, and let it also compute the derivative by itself.

Having all your weights in one object is also awfully convenient; you can write something like `weights -= error * deriv * learning_rate` instead of iterating over each individual weight (and a large model contains many different sets of weights, not just a single NxMxPxQ matrix)

This is good for the rapid iteration that ML research demands. However, once you have selected a model, I'm sure you can get performance advantages by coding it in a low level and eliminating inefficiencies. For example, you should be able to use the weight update equation from above by using fused multiply-accumulate, and the Python framework might not realize that.
I suggest you actually read it with extreme scrutiny: whose opinions exactly are being reported. Look at their exact quotes. A politically-independent mayor? Someone in law enforcement mad they don’t have more laws to enforce?

This is really sad. While I am not a fan of Islam, the reason I dislike this is because Rumi and Sufism in general transcends Islam. His philosophy and poetry tell you that the Wahabi hardliner/literal interpretation of Islam is not ultimate or necessarily "true". When you erase Islam from Rumi's poetry, you erase that, too.

If you want to read Rumi in English, avoid anything by Coleman Barks like plague. Read translations by AJ Arberry, Reynold A Nicholson, or Jawid Mojaddedi.

I suspect this is much like the EA userbase.

EA is a terrible company for gaming. Among their many shady and abhorrent practices, they re release the same game every year with minor to no changes: FIFA (now called something else).

The userbase that plays these games do not care. They are a sustained revenue source. A majority of them do not overlap with gaming and tech communities online. They simply play the games and move on. It's a large silent community that we don't often interact with.

Ubisoft has a similar userbase in its assassin's creed, far cry etc series. To them this won't be any cause for concern.

Assuming you’re using “overpopulation” to refer to California’s housing shortage, this is not a “too many people” issue or a “not enough land issue”, but rather a “land isn’t being used efficiently” issue. Efficiently housing and moving large numbers of people is by and large a solved problem, with plenty of examples to learn from (see: any megacity in Asia).

California hasn’t solved the issue because some percentage of residents or other interest groups don’t want to solve the issue and have had the political means to block attempts at resolution.
Well as environment friendly as it can be in addition to providing better cleansing, bidets would replace possibly billions of dollars of toilet paper expenses from across the spectrum of population with different wealth. This is a loss of revenue for corporations and government (sales tax) who are in turn controlled by the corporations.
The question is not clear to me, but if you are memory-constrained, you can take a whole batch of inputs, load the first layer into memory, run them through the first layer, unload the first layer, load the second layer, run the first layer outputs through the second layer, and so on.
Rich Hickey is correct.

I prefer sum types.

But this is a legitimate point for union types.
It may be a good trade-off if the alternative is not running the model at all.
What's the point of this if it just redirects to twitter.com??
it definitely shows up in 8-bit and 32-bit stuff though, doesn't it? There's just a lot less of those numbers where the leading digit (in decimal) is larger than 3 or so.
> You do realize that if you do all of those things in an ICE, you'll get a similar drop in range, right?

Yes but when most people talk about 400 miles of range in an ICE car they are usually referring to at least typical (==harsh, if you are in the western part of the US) conditions with AC on full blast and lots of mountains.

When EV companies boast 400 miles of range they're testing it on an ideal track. Very different.

I have a model 3 long range, advertised 358 miles, I get nowhere near that, more like 200 miles in realistic California conditions, which are (a) searing heat in the central valley in summer (b) mountains everywhere else (c) biting cold in the winter anywhere in the far north or far east part of the state (d) stop sign hell in the bay area which forces you to stop and go every block.

This is the entire point of divination tools -- to bring something of yourself into it so that the interaction between the reading and your reactions to it help to inform your perspective. I read I Ching but it's the same kind of thing. Astrology makes no sense to me because there is no interaction as I describe, just directives. There's no reason to believe they don't equally apply to everyone[1].

Not the parent, but I have used Standard ML, OCaml, Scala and Swift, and I like union types as well. They are strictly more powerful than sum types. If I want to create an Option type such that Option<Option<T>> = Option<T>, then that's possible. With sum types only, it is not. Yes, this gives you Option<T> = T in situations where T = Option<S>. If I want to have a sum type, then I can just create a distinguishing "kind" field, as you do in TypeScript.

The argument against union types would be, that they are an advanced feature compared to sum types, and sum types are simpler to use right. The argument against sum types is that they are moving the role of types from descriptive to prescriptive, and that is what leads to the problem Hickey is pointing out.
It doesn't matter how sophisticated your argument is if it's resting on something as flimsy as "I believe in god because god says he's real".
That knowledge would never get to text if it wasn't for youtube.
Even in a framework there is separate source code for every model, as they are custom code based on the primitives in the framework, and not purely made using the framework. That's the nature of exploratory research.

Having said that, once you find a model that works well, it tends to gets its advances incorporated into the next versions of the frameworks (so Tensorflow now has primitives like CNN, GRU and TransformerEncoder), as well as getting specific hardware implementations optimized for speed at the expense of generality (like this one).
As a Muslim, I've seen Dawkins make very basic and laughably incorrect claims about Islam. It clearly shows he has extremely shallow knowledge about what he claims to criticize. Niel DeGrasse Tyson is also guilty of the same.

While I get what you're referring to, the issue of Typescript getting this mixed up is not a real issue.

Why? If you write a function that takes T | null and returns T, then you're going to need to filter out your null.

Now, Typescript isn't safe, so you can have f: (T | null) -> T and give it a (null | null) and its return will indeed be null (at least at the moment, see [0]).

But your function's type guards will, at one point, filter out the null case. You might try doing this through some assertion, but if you do the runtime check, it will in fact blow up at runtime.

So Typescript will allow invalid code, but if you are actually doing type assertions correctly you'll get a runtime error at the "type narrowing" step. Worse than static verification of course, but better than carrying around a null that you think is not null.

Anyways, yeah, the conclusion is that in TS at least, T | null narrowing to T doesn't mean that T is not null. TS is at least smart enough to handle that.

While the movie was to my reading relatively accurate, what struck me most was how little was devoted to the context of the pacific war and why it was desperate to build that bomb, despite that Germany was (or almost) defeated.

The horrors of the island wars against the japanese, and more to the point their immense almost religious commitment to opposing the US was a big factor in developing and using the bombs.

It wasn’t a “should I build this bomb and kill n civilians, it was a real consideration and waying of lives, both civilian and military.

Dan Carlin’s podcast about the pacific war kinda opened my eyes how dire the circumstances were really. Even more so it must have looked immensely so through the lenses of propaganda at the time … while the movie did touch a bit on all of that, it didn’t seem to me it did it justice, making it harder to empathize with Oppie, which in my mind is kinda a shame. Otherwise great movie!
