I actually don’t know what “illegal” means either, as I’m not an expert—and not even a layperson—of international law (really I’m just a fanboy of decolonization, and appreciate the UN as one of many groups working on different strategies and succeeding in liberating colonized peoples).

The only thing I do know is that the UN describes these settlements as illegal, so I parrot it, as it fits my narrative. I believe illegal has something to do with the illegal occupation and international agreements which Israel has signed and since broken (e.g. the transfer of civilian population to and from occupied territories) by allowing these settlements to materialize, persist and proliferate.

Some of these settlements are even illegal under Israeli law, but are still allowed to persist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_outpost, but all of them are indeed “illegal” under international law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_settlement

The story was sensationalized for profit. It's really the story of a mentally ill individual who obsessively collected radioactive material from smoke alarms and other sources. It was not really all that dangerous. None of the stuff he tried to build had any chance of working. In the end, he died of a drug overdose. It's a sad story of mental illness, that's it.
It's notable that when it came time to write the Constitution, those "all men are created equal" folks put the Three-Fifths Compromise into the actual backbone of the new country's legal system.

Plumbers, lawyers, engineers all synthesize new responses to unfamiliar situations. Part of being a master plumber, which is a true trade craft and requires lots of training, mean being able to problem solve new complex situations that involves ducting of fluids. This isn’t just plunging toilets all day. Furthermore humans are actually really bad at memorization, which is essentially perfect repetition of data from the training set. In fact a large part of technical trade training is learning how to minimize generalization and maximize memorization for complex skills, but maximizing generalization and minimizing memorization for complex situations where the skills are applied.

Medicine is a regulated industry. You can’t work as a doctor without an MD and good standing with the local licensing agency.

Banking is a regulated industry. You can’t start a bank without first asking permission. Your employees are held to higher standards than other industries, and with criminal repercussions for intentional or negligent violations.

Etc.
> I think falling away from a national identity hurts everyone.

I agree but it’s the basic defect at the heart of America. It’s a country founded by anti-social individualists, replenished by waves and waves of the sort of anti-social people who would leave their kin and move to the other side of the world. Christianity was the only thing keeping the country from declining into pure atomized individualism, and the hold of that is on the verge of collapsing.

I would guess that having it drilled in from childhood probably has something to do with it. By taking issue with it, you're going against the flow and people in general seem to be uncomfortable with that sort of thing. It also seems to me, that people tend to associate it with something other than the actual words that are being spoken.
Yeah, we are pretty lacking on high end data but my understanding was somewhere around 50Gy was expected to knock out brain function. And picking up the hot stuff from a reactor is way above that.
Of course it would be. Even in your example, I would know that KDE is a desktop environment, which, from KDE alone, I would not. ADB is a debug bridge (apparently), which means it's a debugging tool, which means it likely wouldn't be terribly relevant for most typical Android users (and if that's wrong, then the article makes an even bigger mistake).

YMMV, but I do just stand up and not sing. It's not the end of the world. And some people always keep their hand down, instead of over heart. Again, I'm really not experiencing difficulties here, but I respect that there might be other factors. Like, do you live in the deep south?
"it can't think"

Perhaps these models are just too small? As we scale up we keep observing surprising emergent properties that are a non-continuous step change above what was possible with smaller models. Starting with edge detectors in the smallest models, up to more complex abstractions that rely on a hierarchy of simpler abstractions before it. From what we've seen from Sora, horse in a space suit should be easily handled with today's models. LLMs follow a similar pattern.

There's no longer a concept of training examples to be close to, since it's just going along the gradient of high reward actions in the RL environment and going away from those with low reward.
It's an extension of DNS. It seems reasonable that we'd continue evolving DNS to solve new problems, there's no reason to stagnate.
But we can trivially show that the larger models can generalize for some questions even if we verify the answer isn’t in the training set.
It is indeed the simulator, but this just shifts the question: what is that which it simulates?

I am attempting to say this with respect, believe me: I am saying the pressure is not real. At least in my experience, it's not worth your time. I respect that you may have a different situation than I do, and you may experience pressure of this type differently than I do, but "pressure" strikes me as subjective because in fact there are no real consequences that I'm aware of (as in legal, regulatory, etc). And, without further details, we can freely end here dismissing eachothers' perspectives as irrelevant.
This could easily all be arguments for why you personally should want a more equitable world where we don’t have a Third world full of unhappiness and wasted tallent.

That's not a department maintaining the problem they were designed to address though unless it's a watchdog on government waste.
You are right. Not only do you lose the resources you saved but you are now less resilient against changeable circumstances as you approach a natural maximum efficiency based on resources and circumstances. A fat inefficient department can pluck low hanging fruit at need a lean efficient one may fail under pressure even if more resources are provided late in the game because it may not be able to efficiently turn money into productivity without a significant ramp up in terms of recruiting and training.

Same, but it’s been tanking the past year with the huge amount of bloat Amazon keeps shoveling onto it.

Hey, have you ever thought of why even the $149 Black Friday loss-leader no-name-brand TVs all have Amazon Fire, Roku, or are now "Smart" in some way?

> If your counter to this is "well those styles are contained in a React/whatever component which makes it DRY", you're making a different argument where the suitability of utility class frameworks relies on coupling with a component framework.

It does not require any such framework, although those frameworks can use the same approach. PHP and Perl were composing DRY HTML fragments even before JavaScript or CSS were invented. That this is possible and straightforward does not require more than the 30+ years of evidence that already exists.

But if you want more, here's a simple one: CSS promotes DRY of CSS markup at the cost of repeating HTML markup. Do you have more HTML or CSS in any given project?

Actually, it’s the “separation of church and state” that’s more analogous to the civil war memorials being a 20th century creation.

“Separation of church and state” isn’t in the Constitution. It was something Jefferson said, but he was not representative of the founding fathers on that point. John Adams, by contrast, said: “Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Public schooling was invented in Massachusetts for the purpose of educating kids about religion. Massachusetts had an official state church (the Congregationalist church) until 1824! The “Establishment Clause” says: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” That’s not old-timey speak meaning separation of church and state. It literally just says the federal government can’t interfere with the official state churches, which were called “established churches” (and that the federal government couldn’t establish a church itself).

For the first 170 years of the nation’s existence, nobody thought the Establishment Clause meant that state governments could not teach kids religion in state schools. That was invented pretty much out of thin air in the mid-20th century.
CSS/SCSS modules are still, for me, the best option to balance maintainability and flexibility within a component
This reminds me of Timothy Leary's comment at Alan Watt's "houseboat summit" in 1967.

>>So I think that we should start a movement to—one hour a day or one hour a week—take a little chisel, a little hammer, and put a little hole in some of this plastic, and just see some earth coming up and put a seed there. And then put a little ring of—mandalic ring—of something around it. I can see the highways, and I can see the subways, and I can see the patios, and so forth: suddenly the highway department comes along, and says, “There’s a rose growing in the middle of Highway 101!” And then—then—the robot power group will have to send a group of the highway department to kill the rose and put the asphalt down on the gentle, naked skin of the soil. Now, when they do that we’re getting to them. There’ll be pictures in the paper. And consciousness is going to change. Because we’ve got to get to people’s consciousness.

I have a 6950XT. Last I read it was impossible to run stable diffusion on it on windows with any decent iteration speed. Is there anywhere to track progress on that? I'm trying to practice with some AI/ML tools, but the software issues make me wish I bought a NVIDIA card instead.
Zig, similar to Rust, is like crawling into a syntax dumpster fire. Ugh. Give me C any day if I didn't have a choice for better options.
Not to mention that on all devices I used the official Prime Video app (yes, even Fire TV Sticks), there we massive audio latency issues up to the point where I stopped watching. On FireTV Netflix had also lagging behind audio, which it never did on any other platform.

I am talking about a like 1 second delay here, not 50ms (which is already not good).

>I don't believe there is any pressure whatsoever.

Then why do you stand? You can get away without singing, but there is an immense amount of pressure on you to "show respect."
I took a quick glance through the article. It states:

"LLMs can’t count or easily do other mathematical operations due to tokenization, and because tokens correspond to a varying length of characters, the model can’t use the amount of generated tokens it has done so far as a consistent hint."

It then proceeds to use this thing that current LLM's can't do to see if it responds to tipping.

I think that is frankly unfair. It would be like picking something a human can't do, and then using that as the standard to judge whether humans do better when offered a tip.

I definitely think the proper way to test whether tipping improves performance is through some metric that is definitely within the capabilities of LLM's.

Pick something they can do.

I really believed this argument growing up in a white, middle class household in the 1980s. I’m more skeptical now, after two decades of helping build our current technocracy.

Maybe it is not what you're looking for, but Fire TV, included within the Echo Show 15, is pretty snappy.

I don't know why anyone would believe that, as I implied. The future is unknowable, but history has shown it takes less than a generation to militarize any nation. Assuming it will be different this time around, is not "overwhelmingly" likely.
It's not about DRY. It's about modeling. It's about design. It's about being able to look at markup (as a human) and tell what the heck it is. Tailwind soup obscures what things are. How many of your Tailwind-using apps ALSO have meaningful class names and IDs in your markup? How many of you rely on data-test-id or other such hacks to make up for the fact that you are not doing design.

Classes are used to categorize the markup. It's a document model. Model the document. Then, you apply styles to that. It's about design.
Still bad, maybe it will balance out?
