The EU has a rule (Common European Asylum System) that you have to claim asylum/refugee status in the first EU country you arrive in. The UK benefited greatly from this rule while in the EU - anyone entering from France and claiming to be a refugee, they could be sent straight back to France, and under this EU rule France had to accept them.

Post-Brexit, once an asylum seeker in France makes it to the UK, France is no longer under any legal obligation to take them back, so they refuse. There isn't anything in it for them.

It also has rules about spreading the burden, so once a refugee claim is accepted, governments can then forcibly transfer them to a different EU country. Post-Brexit, the UK government can only transfer refugees to EU member states if they agree to receive them, and why should they, what is in it for them?
You're actually kinda hitting the nail on the head. _Generally_, the word2vec woman + king = queen thing was cute but not very real.

People rarely have to get down to the real true metal on the embeddings models, and they're not what people think they are from their memory of word2vec. Ex. there's actually one vector emitted _per token_, the final vector is the mean. And cosine distance for similarity is the only metric anyone is training for.

In summary, there's ~no reason to think a visualization trying to show multiple vectors will ever be meaningful. Even just starting from "they have way way way more dimensions than we can represent visually" is enough to rule it out

Mini LM v2, foundation of most vector dbs, is 384 dims.

n.b. dear reader, if you've heard of that: you should be using v3! V3 is for asymmetric search, aka query => result docs. V2 is for symmetric search, aka chunk of text => similarly worded chunks of texts. It's very very funny how few people read the docs, in this case, the sentence transformers site.
We don't really know what the split was. SBF has claimed he donated significantly more to the republicans. From your link above:

A lot of the games can be played online at https://www.file-hunter.com/MSX/ – I found a lot of the games a lot more janky and awkward than I remember them to be, and also quite repetitive. YMMV.

> I consider democracy to be mostly an obvious illusion/trick, so those who have fallen for it are kind of getting what they deserve for not listening to (if not outright mocking) warnings.

That is a vacuous claim without any alternative so support it. I too am not too satisfied with the options I had last elections where I lived, but that is the best we have right now.

The magnitude cannot be nearly as much as to be sufficient. It is two orders of magnitude less than needed to conjure Brexit out of blue and then win it. Such a feat can only be done by inside parties.

Otherwise, everybody meddles in everybody else's politics all the time, chiefly US and the UK, so when they complain about it is like when a pro poker player complains that he was stripped pantsless by a newbie. It can only be a smoke cover. First of all, pro players never complain in good faith.

I agree. SemVer doesn't give you permission to make breaking changes -- it documents your decisions, assuming you're honest with SemVer.

This is very very useful. You can look at a library or dependency and weigh out if frequent, breaking changes are ok for you or not -- is the value worth the pain? Alternatively, if the major version never changes, you can have more confidence that you won't have to rework your code on every library update.
"ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical adventure and role-playing games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the games, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed! ScummVM is a complete rewrite of these games' executables and is not an emulator.

ScummVM supports an extensive library of over 325 adventure games, including classic titles from iconic studios such as LucasArts, Sierra On-Line, Revolution Software, Cyan, Inc. and Westwood Studios. Alongside groundbreaking games like the Monkey Island series, Broken Sword, Myst, Blade Runner and numerous well-known titles, you can experience truly obscure adventures and discover hidden gems."

For those (like me) who didn't know what ScummVM was.

> Did the UK have a legal obligation to allow EU citizens to live and work freely in the UK while in the EU?

Yes. As long as they're not a burden on the state*. The "4 freedoms".

> Did the UK have the legal right to alter trading regulations? For example, could the UK decide to import chlorine washed chicken from US while in the EU?

No. Trade is an EU power (competence).

> Did the UK have a legal right to discriminate against labours from the EU who applied for jobs in the UK?

No

> I'll also note, we've massively reduced the number of migrants coming from Eastern Europe, this is something that we literally could not legally do while in the EU.

While massively increasing "legal immigration" from outside the EU by instituting a bunch of incompetent policies. i.e. "point based" but with no caps on numbers.

Basically we reclaimed a bunch of political powers (the non EU immigration not being one of those), and now only have ourselves to blame for how we exercise those powers.

* There are 90 day rules about being present and not able to support oneself. However for political reasons, the UK was never able to use those. We don't have population registers, so can not track where folks are. The prior Labour "ID card" scheme which would have allowed such was scrapped after every other party promised to scrap it in the next GE, and a different party got in.
Because it’s a hard problem! there are nuances to this complex problem that need to be thought through before reducing too much.

In this case, then, regurgitation is the problem then, not the fact that it was ‘read’.

Yes. You’ll also notice correlation between brexit voting and educational achievement, one with income, and interestingly one with prevalence of leaded petrol during formative years (which is linked to age)

Weigh brexit vote by tax paid per year, lifetime tax paid, or years having to live with the consequences, by educational attainment, and you get a remain landslide.

The opposite thing is true: we have documentary evidence that Egypt had a plan to preemptively invade. Again: cite a book where you're getting this stuff from. In addition to WP and AskHistorians, I'm citing Benny Morris (Righteous Victims), who is unsparing of Israel's complicity in the Six Day War and, most importantly, in its aftermath. I'm interested in where you could possibly have been getting the details you're confidently providing in this thread.
I would want to have multi lingual embeddings so I can learn languages more efficiently. Being able to see clouds of different words in different languages would allow me to contextualize them more easily. Same for phrases and sentences.

Given most of them lived in the EU but outside of the UK, nearly all of them. Turkeys don't vote for Christmas.

But then, maybe not. I remember the week after the vote reading a letter in one of the quality papers (I think The Times, quite likely), from a lady who had voted Leave and was shocked to discover that her plan to retire to the South of France was now going to be much harder to achieve. "I think we should have been told about these sorts of consequences", she complained. It really boggles the mind.

A lot of people trust Amazon and expect them (or their sellers) to sell a fuse that works. A lot of us make a dozen decisions about what to buy every day, and sometimes you don’t have time to do a bunch of research. This isn’t a problem that should only be pushed onto the individual buyer. There should be some required testing on safety critical products. It wouldn’t even cost that much to have an electrical engineer spot checking a few of the products.

I got a ticket from a DC traffic camera. Even though wasn’t me driving, I was forced to pay or be sent to collections.

The ticket was $100 and I could appeal it by paying $175 of which $100 would be refunded if my appeal was in my favor.

Their city ordinance said I was responsible because I owned the car.

I imagine it’s the same for driverless cars. The registered owner will get and pay the ticket. They don’t care who is driving.

An interesting question though is they driverless cars should probably have different speed limits as they can respond very differently from humans.

There are a couple of categories of stuff that you should probably just never risk buying on Amazon:

As you say, anything that plugs into AC mains >= 120V.

Anything that, were it to malfunction could cause a home fire or plumbing flood.

Anything that could lead to injury or death were it to fail (like car or boat parts, safety equipment).

Anything that your family or pets eat.

Anything mission critical that you depend on to run your business/income.

But if the immigration is legal then the control isn't failing at all, is it?

The few brexitters I talked with shared the same stance, that it was not acceptable for the EU to dictate immigration to the UK. It was not a matter of the influx itself, but about having that control. sovereignty was a big thing.
I guess this is why it’s so hard to cancel gym memberships. I wonder how these places will be affected by ozempic/etc. On the one hand, people won’t have to exercise to lose weight at much as before. On the other hand, perhaps there will be a cultural change that emphasizes muscle mass/tone more than now. That is, being not-overweight will be the default, and the way people will stand out will be muscle tone, perfect skin/hair/etc. What franchises will pop up to serve these needs?
Who did FTX/SBF fund, how close were these elections, what other political consequences were downwind of this? Who would have potentially won without the funding?

From a Time article:

Bankman-Fried contributed more than $70 million to election campaigns in less than 18 months, placing him among the nation’s top political donors. He personally gave at least $40 million to politicians and political action committees ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, mostly to Democrats and liberal-leaning groups, making him the second overall top donor to Democrats, only behind George Soros, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

Bankman-Fried also donated a significant amount to fundraising committees and super PACs affiliated with both parties. The biggest single recipient was Protect Our Future, a Democratic-aligned super PAC that claims it was “designed to help elect candidates who will be champions for pandemic prevention.” The group received $27 million from Bankman-Fried, and supports effective altruism, a philanthropic movement premised on the use of reason and data to allocate money, which Bankman-Fried also supports. Beneficiaries of Protect Our Future include Carrick Flynn, who lost a Democratic primary in Oregon’s 6th District, George Rep. Lucy McBath and Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett.

The former crypto king made one of the largest donations to Joe Biden’s presidential campaign in 2020, contributing $5.2 million, according to the Wall Street Journal.

So again, you're telling me that this guy stole money from regular people and then used it to support a candidate that ultimately won the election? How is that not the single biggest aspect of this story and a daily headline for the last two years?
Well, you could argue it improved racial/ethnic diversity, as European immigrants were replaced by non-European immigrants. Probably not the kind of improvement most Brexit supporters had in mind.

In addition to other things I am certified electrician in Germany. Your claims are wildly oversimplified. Every fuse has a type, rating and trip current. I pick them by planned application, installation type and cable length. Copper cables cost money, the safety margin is THE fuse. Otherwise cable insulation gets too hot and wears too fast.
>What were you getting out of EU regulations?

Economies of scale. Post-Brexit, we've copy-and-pasted nearly all EU regulations, because it turns out that a) writing and maintaining regulations is really difficult and expensive and b) there are massive advantages to having the same regulations as your most important trade partners. A lot of people didn't like the idea of EU regulations, but very few people have identified anything in those regulations that they actually want to change.

As a conservative, the whole Brexit project strikes me as antithetical to conservative principles - we abandoned the status quo with no clear idea of what we'd replace it with, nor any clear sense of what the advantages might be. The fallout of Brexit is an incredibly strong vindication of Chesterton's Fence. Shortcomings in EU institutions are a valid justification for leaving only if you're confident that you can replace them with something better; it was only after the referendum that we started seriously discussing what the decision to leave actually meant.
Bit torrent clients are almost exclusively used for copyright infringement. Yet they are perfectly legal to develop and distribute. On the flip side, operating a company premised around easy copyright infringement was ruled to be illegal (Napster).

Where we might end up is in a situation where it is legal to train a model. Legal to produce software for using the model to generate content. Legal to distribute all of the above. But offering a standing service that does the above and is capable of creating infringing work is illegal. Great news for llama hobbyists. Bad news for ChatGPT.
True, simplicity goes a long way in post-2000 3d games. Even in games where there's complex entity hierarchies, it often has to be collapsed into a flat structure when added to render queue (for things like transparency sorting). "Flat lists of things" is also pretty much also the foundation of ECS/DOD.

That part is not really serious. The point is that this was a commercial company, of a decent size and investment. And somehow it produced a design that one would expect to come out from some sort of highly anti-corporate group.

Normally a company has a business plan of some kind. This design is almost as if somebody put a lot of thought into making sure there couldn't be one.
That depends entirely on the tech stack, and how much you care about enabling offline development. You can definitely run something like minikube on your laptop.

>Did the UK have a legal obligation to allow EU citizens to live and work freely in the UK while in the EU?

Yes but also had the right to deny that to those who couldn't take care for themselves(can't be burden to the society). So can't stop them from coming but doesn't have to keep the freeloaders. UK choose not to pursue that but could have.

> Did the UK have the legal right to alter trading regulations? For example, could the UK decide to import chlorine washed chicken from US while in the EU?

Yes, just different legislative path. UK was full EU member since the beginning and they created those trade deals within EU and they can change them within EU. Obviously they will need to convince others about the benefits of the chlorinated chicken so they can pass that change but they also need to do the same for the electorate in the UK ehen outside of EU.

> Did the UK have a legal right to discriminate against labours from the EU who applied for jobs in the UK?

No. The idea is that meritocracy prevails, arbitrary discrimination is not OK. EU people apply for jobs freely, employers are free to chose the person who would like to work with and they can chose to work with a Brit or EU citizen if the like to. Why do you want the UK government discriminate against people and force employers to hire those they don't want to? What's wrong with meritocracy?

> EU literally does nothing and serves no purpose

EU's primary purpose is the create peace in Europe by making countries inter-depended and give common access to the resources. If you want to operate a car factory in Berlin, you don't have to conquer Berlin - you can just go there and buy or start one.

Beside this primary purpose, EU has many many more functions. It sucks or excels in some and does OK in others.

I’m on their side of this semantics issue - I don’t consider reference counting to be garbage collection, to me it’s a stand alone group of memory management techniques, even if there is some overlap in implementation techniques with (tracing) GC sometimes.
