Based on world bank data and taking into account PPP[1], UK real gdp rose 14% from 2010 to 2021. Belgium, Germany, Netherlands were up 15%. Norway 18%, Switzerland 19%, Denmark 20%, Sweden 25%. The UK was close to the EU average.

Results are similar if you ignore PPP. [2]

I’m not really sure where your numbers came from but I assume the ranking is a bit sensitive to the time boundaries (ie recovery from gfc and pandemic) so I don’t know how relevant it would be even if I had found the same results as you.

I found the uk looks a bit better for growth from 2010 to 2019, which ignores some pandemic recovery failures mentioned in the OP and Germany’s larger 2009-2010 growth.

Everyone did circa 2000. You've got Generation X in the news, FFX came out, Xbox, X Games, ActiveX.
Yeah, I mean we have this term “inspiration” already for some time. I’ve long thought that when a person hits a dead end creatively what they need is to to go out and have more experiences and be exposed to new things.
> As an example: The Boring Company.

Are they doing a better job that anyone else? Also, anything they make appears to have to be paired with Telsa's, which for mass transportation, is literally the stupidest idea ever conceived.

The Boring Company an Hyperloop are just Gadgetbahns to try to convince State and local governments to not make public transportation.

Now, if The Boring Company could make tunnels for cheap and then install real trains, then it might be a game changer but until then, it is not.
I don't understand the vitriol. Why do you care? It's like half the internet has Musk derangement syndrome.

Train and Deploy Reliable Models on Messy Real-World Data with a Few Clicks
New feature alert: Auto-train & deploy reliable ML models (more accurate than fine-tuned OpenAI LLMs) on messy real-world data — all in just a few clicks!

Common reasons companies struggle to quickly get good ML models deployed and generating business value: messy data full of issues, a need to explore many ML models to train a good one, and infrastructural challenges serving predictions from the model. Now you can handle all of this in minutes using Cleanlab Studio.

For classifying product reviews, the deployed Cleanlab Studio model is more accurate than OpenAI LLMs fine-tuned on the same data. Producing this model merely required a few clicks in the platform which automatically: detect/correct issues in the dataset to produce a better version, identify and train the best ML model for this particular data, and deploy it for serving predictions in an application. Each of these steps typically requires significant code and effort from a team, but not if you use Cleanlab! Within hours, our cutting-edge AutoML with Foundation models produces highly accurate models for almost any dataset.

Cleanlab Studio allows you to rapidly turn raw image/text/tabular data into reliable ML model deployments, by automating all of the necessary steps. No other tool makes the full end-to-end pipeline this easy and performant!

Details on how we achieve this via novel Data-Centric AI techniques and benchmarks of model performance are in our new blogpost: http://cleanlab.ai/blog/model-deployment/
Gotcha. I guess I misunderstood. Thanks for the clarification.

As an aside, I tend to only like the joke that Elon Musk is Phony Stark, the rest of the jokes just don't land with me for some reason. I've never really liked the guy and I'm happy it's a lot less difficult for me to articulate why now.

But yes, he wants X to be WeChat.
Clicked, and happy to have done so. Getting offended enough by titles to miss out on such content is a pity. I wholeheartedly encourage you to reconsider.
Ethereum may not be useful to you but it is very useful to me and many others. It will become even more useful in the future as people learn what happens when your money is centralized to one particular government, based on nothing at all, and just keeps getting printed more and more of.

I think crypto solving this issue is definitely of value. How many wars were started by a government debasing their currency and having to start a war to fix it? I'd say a lot of them.
It allows the attacker to eavesdrop on the data going through operations like strcmp(), memcpy(), and strlen(). (These are the standard functions in C for working with strings; and many higher-level languages use them under the hood.) It works on any function that uses the XMM/YMM/ZMM registers.

It's stochastic; the attacker randomly gets data from whatever happens to be using the XMM/YMM/ZMM registers at the time. So if the attacker could eavesdrop in the background constantly, they might eventually see a password. Or they might be able to trigger some system code that processes your password, then eavesdrop for the next few milliseconds.

The attacker needs to run code on your machine. Unclear if running code in a web browser is sufficient or not. It requires an unusual sequence of machine instructions, which isn't necessarily possible in JS/WASM, but 'sounds' says they did it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36849767
If you're going to talk about collectable data then your first visit on the security tour should be replay attacks.

Every idiot who comes up with a biometric solution does not want to talk about replay attacks (which is why they get the moniker), and it should be the first thing we talk about.
Nope. Just some guy who happens to be Elon's dad making these 'claims' but other than that single person's 'claims' nothing. /s
"We should improve society somewhat."

"Yet you participate in society. Curious! I am very intelligent."
It's as fun as always to subscribe to these narratives but I don't buy it.

In the span of time that astrology has taken hold we have seen a dramatic loss in adepts to Christianity as well as its irrational beliefs like creationism.

It's clear that a portion of society has a need for this type of beliefs, and they have merely supplanted Christianity with astrology and woo.
It’s kind of how angles work, tho.
Exactly. When you have enough money, you think laws are for other people, as with Uber or cryptocurrency.

The legal status of copyright in this context is unclear, because the laws were written without imitation machines in mind. Presumably they blew right on by "is this right?" and went for "can we get away with this and pay less in fines than we'd make in profits?" As long as there's a 51% chance of that being the case, they saw it as worth a go.
I don't think that's a safe presumption at all. Getty, e.g., claims to have found their watermark in the output of Stable Diffusion.

More broadly, it's not a settled question of what license you need. The article presents a perspective that LLMs "would turn a Food & Wine review into a simple text recommendation of a bottle of Malbec, without attribution." I doubt that anyone has a license to republish the entire archive of the New York Times without attribution.

At the other extreme, I can "train" myself on newspapers I find discarded on the subway with no license at all. I don't need to cite my sources when I state an opinion based on everything I've ever read, seen, or heard. Is that a fair analogy to apply to LLMs?

As if this scale were merely binary rather than a continuum.
care to explain yourself? All I could find was this article, lamenting that car dealerships take up too much profit for everyone else other than Tesla.

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4573601-tesla-gross-margins...

I don't see how that negates everything I said. Tesla can and does ship directly to buyers, so kudos to them.
Great article. The only thing I would add is that there should be a configurability layer. Being able to dynamically point to other sources or have roll-over capabilities is missing from a lot of in-house applications.

EDIT: this could also be a discussion on abstraction.
The information looks interesting but the site is so hard to navigate, there are 3-7 moving elements on the screen at any time, text runs away while reading it, scroll doesn't work as expected, information is presented in too many different ways.
Ah, publisher rent seeking. To get independent again. Like they were in the haydays of the cold War or the Iraq war.not.

The only thing I can ask is: Y ???
Elon Musk founded X.com before it bought one of its competitors and changed its name to PayPal. He bought the domain name back from PayPal in 2017 and had been sitting on it for a while.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.com

It looks like this isn't a rebranding so much as making an "everything app".

> On October 4, 2022, Elon Musk described his acquisition of Twitter as "an accelerant to creating X, the everything app".[28] This has been linked to x.com.[29] In conversation with Ron Baron a month later, Musk said he will execute the X product plan "with some improvements" which will make Twitter "the most valuable financial institution in the world."[30]

Well, it'll be interesting whether he succeeds or fails. But this does not look like it is impulsive.

Apple is the only company with a special licensing deal with ARM that lets them do whatever they want and develop their own ARM cores without relying on ARM IP or premade designs like everyone else. They've also sorted it out financially where they're probably not incurring incremental costs, though I think the details are secret.
Does "double click anywhere" mean "double click anywhere within these N cities"? I couldn't initially tell if they were examples or limits.

It was needed temporarily until we got more address space.

The original NAT RFC 1631 (later 3022) was released in 1994:

The huge advantage of this approach is that it can be installed
incrementally, without changes to either hosts or routers. (A few
unusual applications may require changes). As such, this solution can
be implemented and experimented with quickly. If nothing else, this
solution can serve to provide temporarily relief while other, more
complex and far-reaching solutions are worked out.

It served its purpose, and folks should be moving past it now.
I completely agree. Musk reminds me of Eric Hartmann, the most successful fighter pilot ever with 352 kills. Much is made of his skill as a pilot, but what isn't said is that he had to crash land 16 times and each time he came away from it fine and kept going. Tremendously lucky, something like 1/2^16 odds of surviving that. He was, however, also an exceptional pilot, who in particular understood how to tilt the odds in his favor. You could say that he also had the good luck to be the best at what he did.
You are basically saying: "If you believe the answer then that is the case."

That answer can be given to ANY question and it is as true there as in your case. In other words it is a tautology. It provides no new information.
The Merlin app by Cornell Lab of Ornithology is fantastic for identifying bird sounds in real-time. Besides the machine-learning tech the overall app is a great experience, clearly made by talented developers who probably also love birds and dogfood the product. Every thing about it is tailored to quickly giving you all the information you need to look up what kinds of birds to expect in different areas at different times of year and quickly narrow down possible candidates.
Wait, what drugs does Christianity use? Wine at communion?
There have been a lot of CEOs that took control of a 2nd company in a totally different field, but have never been so catastrophic. Musk's takeover of Twitter is a total anomaly.
I never said they were consistent.

But to channel the scary pastors of my youth, “that’s also a sin, and people shouldn’t do that, but I’m not going to sit back and let the One World Government roll out the mark of the Beast!”

If you want to see how quickly a quarter of the US can organize and mobilize, things like this are a great way to find out.
There is certainly one more.
Kinda. I'm well aware of the why - I first learned to pick locks long before LPL went into law school, and have taught a lot of other folks how to pick too.

Drilling and cutting shows signs of entry. Picking usually doesn't (at least not unambiguously or in a way a typical person will notice). Despite the old detective novels claiming otherwise.

And replacing the core (which I often do!) requires knowledge and (minor) capital outlay that most folks just don't have.

Notably, out of the box in the US, the locks generally 'work'. Everything is low density, there are alternative means of defending oneself against day to day criminal acts (guns), and generally a gov't that ignores folks - until they come down with unstoppable force on specific targets. There is not (yet) pervasive oppression like a Stasi/East Germany, China/Hong Kong, Gestapo/Reich Era Germany, Franco/Spain, etc.

Notably, European and Asian residences have dramatically higher lock standards and stronger doors.

Both regions are denser, and also have significant history of gov't unrest and a history of much more, shall we say, 'uncomfortable' relations between the gov't and the population. Doing a 'no knock raid' on a residence in any European or Asian city is going to look a lot more like this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqN7KpcpBLU] for instance than in the US where it's a solid kick and they're in. (random click-baity youtube video, you've been warned!)

I suspect both regions have real, practical security concerns + the population is willing to pay for them because culturally they've learned.

Most American ones at the moment, haven't/don't have those concerns yet. And that is convenient for many parties.
This is why I stopped using Twitter. The quality went way down and there's porn/onlyfans spam everywhere.

Blue checkmarks should be available to all or should have objective rules for qualification. It was used as a carrot and a stick.

As for revenue sharing, take musk out of the picture and if I were to ask about a social platform that is primarily supported by subscriptions and content generators get paid, you would be all for it. Do you apply the same criticism with YouTube sharing revenue?

Come on, I can't take you seriously for criticizing a social network for sharing revenue with creators. We're just so far apart on basic values nothing I can say could change your mind

This is big enough, though, that we'll likely see new laws made in response, the same way the rise of the internet caused previously ambiguous things to get clear laws around it. So I think they also thought they could force the ambiguity to resolve in their direction with a combination of "facts on the ground" and a big budget for lobbying and litigation.

While I agree, there are so many other traditions that make much more sense than astrology. Meditation, quiet shrines with incense in groves, yoga, taichi etc. And they are not at odds with scientific temperament.

Did Musk originally go to Roscosmos to license their tech and it was only after the laughed him out of the door that SpaceX pursued it's current strategy? His original plan was literally to be dependent on Russia's Soyuz.
Which area is it more expensive in, then?
see the entire field of anarchism for instance, Francis Ford Coppola even has a new movie coming out that draws directly from the works of David Graeber and Wengrow who have written on your kind of anarchy101 level question. I recommend trying wengrow and graeber’s Dawn of Everything or their academic papers. Understood it’s extreme to you. The writing’s there if you have the want to see it.

“We live in capitalism, its power seems inescapable – but then, so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings.”

However besides just sharing that Graeber and Wengrow have documented realities in human history that explored answers to your question (and post discovery of agriculture, and scaled beyond dunbar's number), I'll also share this alternative response from Graeber's earlier works that predate a lot of the really exciting anthro and archaeological discoveries in recent years (the cutting edge research covered in their last book and papers):

“Normally, when you challenge the conventional wisdom—that the current economic and political system is the only possible one—the first reaction you are likely to get is a demand for a detailed architectural blueprint of how an alternative system would work, down to the nature of its financial instruments, energy supplies, and policies of sewer maintenance. Next, you are likely to be asked for a detailed program of how this system will be brought into existence. Historically, this is ridiculous. When has social change ever happened according to someone’s blueprint? It’s not as if a small circle of visionaries in Renaissance Florence conceived of something they called “capitalism,” figured out the details of how the stock exchange and factories would someday work, and then put in place a program to bring their visions into reality. In fact, the idea is so absurd we might well ask ourselves how it ever occurred to us to imagine this is how change happens to begin.”
I think that fs guy is a legend after reading the comments. That person has been just grinding on all the issues for years.
> Lastly he probably also had/has some WeChat ambitions.

Years ago I remember reading something about the Chinese microblogging sites and it was mentioned "these sites also have a character limits. However, b/c in Chinese a character can be an entire word, the 'word limits' are much longer."

Moving to the 4000 character limit feels very much a response to the above.

You have no idea. This is not some database field that you can just alter with one statement and update a field on a screen. Things like this get hardcoded into hundreds of thousands of lines of assembler and cobol and need to be changed and tested everywhere. With no automated testing or other tools to mitigate the risk. It is an absolute nightmare. And 5 or 10 years from now it will be way worse because working on a mainframe is a deadend career and very few people are learning it.

X has a cool sound and mystery so I think it works when paired with someone that fits. X-men is one for me at least.

Brand-less unpaired “X” is the epitome of bland. I have no doubt Twitter will be around in the next ten years.

But just like AOL, Yahoo, and MySpace no one will really care except a fragment of their original demographic. Which I’m going to assume with Musk at the helm will be aging genx'ers. Which is kinda fitting.
