> The United States is a representational republic.
> make decisions in regards to war effort

Why is that matter? USA - is not a part of the conflict

> It's not the job of civilians to take this into our own hands

It is literally the job of civilians. In this war both sides forcefully conscripting civilians to conduct the war with their own hands

> When civilian does try and intervene in a war effort directly, like for example turning off communication infrastructure, that's weird

So you are saying that job of civilians - is to die for what the cause big politicians seems fitting them to die for, but not to try to stop this war?

> but a professional politician is someone that we've elected to handle these kinds of situations.

They obviously failed

It's more! That's part of what makes it impressive.

You can come at it from the perspective of "It's merely an accounting trick and slave labor" but I think that's missing it for what it is. Most art is created without an expected paycheck. Movies especially are collaborative and everyone involved in small indie projects with no budgets knew there were working for little to no pay. You think the actors, camera man, lighting and set guys, were all thinking they were going to make a bunch in the box office from Dark Star / Mariachi? Likely not. They probably were thinking they'd try their shot at exposure. Actors might get recognized and get a career out of it, or not. Film crew at least had something on their resume. It's not like the directors (Cameron, Rodriguez) were making any promises they couldn't keep.

The freedom to use means the freedom to use without paying. So it is you who is confused.
I enjoy using the alliteration of "Capital" and "Credit" to remember the normal balance of the capital/equity accounts. Memorizing that and the accounting equation is all that's necessary to derive the normal balances of every other account type.

The word subsidy is used to cover quite different things, At one end, people use the word "subsidy" about tax rules that apply to everyone, and at the other, things that I too consider to be subsidies.
Collusion is just a tool, an illegal one, but a tool nonetheless. You say RealPage is magical, I think it’s just evidence of its control over the housing market, not clairvoyance. It self-fulfills whatever prophecy it comes up with. And these prophecies seem to always predict ever increasing prices(excluding high frequency noise), far above what the market would normally allow.

Renting is supposed to have risks, without these risks it probably wouldn’t even be allowed in modern society. Landlords are well within their right to find creative ways to mitigate them, but it can’t involve breaking the very same set of societal rules their tenants are following, there is nothing creative about that. If only criminals targeted criminals, but they always go after the easiest victims.
Anecdotally, I've been doing American style muay thai (meaning way less brutal and intense than the real Thai stuff) for about 10 years, at many gyms across the country. Never had an injury (or saw someone else get injured). I only spar for practice, not fight competitively.

Most of those gyms also do BJJ, and I do very frequently see joint and ear injuries from those. Nothing major, but people will rotate in and out of injuries for a few weeks at a time.

With any gym, it's important not to rush into sparring before you get your bearings (and protection, like at least a mouth guard and shin guards). Some places require head protection too, but I'm not sure if that actually protects you vs just giving your opponent a false sense of "it's okay to hit you harder". You might be trading light grazing blows (and visibility) for heavier blunt impacts...? Not totally sure of the science there.

It's also super important to choose good sparring partners, meaning they are both adequately skilled at self control and not prone to bouts of anger that make them lose control. Watch other people spar for a while and talk to the coach about your own ability and theirs before jumping in. The absolute worst is beginners jumping into sparring each other without good self control, causing an unintentional slugfest where people don't know what they're doing and end up getting hurt. Don't do that, take it slow and play it safe. If you're not planning on competing there's no reason to rush through training or disregard safety.

I know I sound like an old geezer lol, but seriously, it's entirely possible to do martial arts safely if you just lower the aggro level and don't go all out.

Nice. I think I might keep an eye on potential rumors of a Libra 3 or something like that given that the Libra 2 came out in 2021, that's nearly 3 years old.

I'd also guess rural areas have higher birth rates and younger marriages. By the time those kids reach 25, though, a lot of them will have moved to cities. That could still mean HPsquared is correct. I'd need to look up stats to be sure.

> If the criminals' jamming only needs to protect their identity when people look at footage in the future ... within sight rather than the full building

Ideally a well-designed camera would buffer locally when its WiFi path is down. But there's always limits there and I suppose if the criminal started the jamming a bit before entering line of sight, it should work. Then again I suppose most security cameras probably don't buffer at all or just barely enough to smooth out a network hiccup.
The neck is also surprisingly fairly involved in the balance system, I unfortunately have a lifelong inner ear deficit (deafness and vestibular) on one side and there have been times where neck tightness caused significant issues with my eye tracking (nystagmus). It’s really all connected, also salt intake, caffeine etc. can impact your balance / dizziness due to the pressure in your inner ear canals where the otoliths are swimming.

Love this game. I abused multiple tabs as a way to save the current game, as opening new tab copies the state of the game, and got to a high score of 150,000 (I could keep going, I didn't lose) and made a 4096 tile. Using multiple tabs to save the game when you get a good position makes it possible to play indefinitely. It's even more addictive when you can save the game because then it's not really over at game over.

Like RWKV and Mamba, this is mixing some RNN properties to avoid the issues transformers have.

However I'm curious about their scaling claims. They have a plot that shows how the model scales in training with the FLOPs you throw at it.

But the issue we should rather be concerned with is the wall time of training for a set amount of hardware.

Back in 2018, we could train medium sized RNNs, the issue was with wall time of training and training stability.

That doesn’t make it any less important or remarkable though?

I think the problem here is the same one as the other current music generation services. Iteration is so important to creativity and right now you can't really properly iterate. In order to get the right song you just spray and pray and keep generating until one that is sufficient arrives or you give up. I know you hint at this being a future direction of development but in my opinion it's a key feature to take these services beyond toys.

I think it's better to think of the process of finding the right song as a search algorithm through the space of all possible songs. The current approach just uses a "pick a random point in a general area". Once we find something that is roughly correct we need something that lets us iteratively tweak the aspects that are not quite right, decreasing the search space and allowing us to iteratively take smaller and smaller steps in defined directions.
I didn't get one detail: they selected 6B transformer as baseline and compared it to 7B Griffin

My company provides new compute modules for another major global city's infrastructure that still relies on Intel CPU's from the early 80's. That is, we are building them brand new boards populated with chips that are over 40 years old.

They haven't shown any interest in updating the system. It works, they can get service, and get "new" replacements for things that go bad.

What they might not know though is that there is basically just one engineer we have (and probably the only one on Earth) who knows how to work on these things. He's getting old, and obviously none of the younger engineers really have an interest in learning ancient forgotten systems.
The US and Chinese protections were negotiated at the same time in 2006: China wanted a 25% tariff for automobiles imported into China from the USA (down from 80-100%), the USA said, OK, but we will apply the same to your cars. That's why it was negotiated, if China offered no tariff, the USA would have jumped at that.

Almost all tariffs are reciprocated, that's just how this game works. It is only an accident in history that these tariffs now protect the USA rather than China.

That's the standard argument, but it's actually a carefully constructed talking point that (like many such things) twists the premise.

The issue is that it's effectively awarded based on a sort of 'diversity requirement' now - white / asian males being the requirement. The evidence is overwhelming - there's no way that's coincidence, or coincidental with all the racial exclusion in the past. Racism, sexism, other forms of prejudice clearly still exist (look at social media if you need a refresher).

The question is, what do we do about it?

I don't think you understand. Some of these people genuinely believe that US imperialism will spread progress and prosperity. Yes, some are Machiavellian and understand the geopolitical game, and are simply playing for keeps (resources, dominance, US hegemony, self-enrichment, etc). Others actually believe in the forceful spread of the Enlightenment project worldwide to accelerate the upward curve of history.

Never underestimate how stupid an aristocracy can become. Some portion will always be true believers. The idea that it is all Machiavellians is a probabilistic impossibility, and revealed preferences (interviews, slips of the mic, secret conversations, whistleblowers, etc.) have shone sunlight on them in the past. There are genuine ideologues in the US military and state department. Calling them "conservative" or "neoliberal" is a useless simplification that does not adequately describe how deranged their beliefs are.
If the future of music was truly just typing some text into a box and taking or leaving what the machine gives you that would be kinda depressing.

The old way was very slow. You don't rock the boat in rd 1 or 2 and the winner is known by rd 5 and the "victor" takes the foot off the pedal to assert dominance.

Then there is a somewhat mutual respect and understanding between fighters that while they want to win they don't want to get injured cos back then people may be fighting weekly. None of this 3 month fight camp and skipping and ducking fights for years that people like Mayweather did.

And then I never quite understood why but once everything was rigged by gambling circuits it all became very clinch dominant.

Not to mention that the traditional scoring also does not favour muay mat (punchers).

Chatri wants to make martial arts more entertaining because no one wants to see people just pull guard in BJJ or grab each other's legs in Judo. And why should only practitioners of Boxing see these huge purses when Buakaw and Saenchai stayed essentially poor.

Also very traditional muay thai/boran fights were done with kard cheuk anyway which aren't much different from those 4oz gloves...
> That's exactly right -- you don't need to. The problem is that people do use this terminology, and they use it in a way that conflicts with common usage

I used to think that way, then I understood this thinking is the exact opposite of what’s happening.

Hundred million people on earth know how to work with debit and credit exactly as it has been written in accounting books for hundreds of years. When you need to expand your accounting department, you go and hire a person who understands things exactly the same way as your current accountants, can pick up their work, they can communicate effectively. As a CEO, you are spared of teaching every new junior accountant your own flavor of first-principles accounting, you don’t need to write your custom accounting software, and convert your company’s books for tax authorities and outside auditors who are not familiar with your system.

>I have personally seen hundreds of fires of gas and diesel vehicles on the side of the road, including having a family member’s Audi spontaneously combust while driving on the interstate last year.

I'm calling bullshit on this. I have been driving for decades basically more than average and haven't even seen hundreds of accidents, much less hundreds of fires. Even if you were a truck driver on the road 8 hours a day, I would doubt this.

With petrol vehicles there are no spontaneous combustion incidents. The fuels are stable under all ordinary storage conditions and only one of a handful of well-understood malfunctions can lead to fuel leaking out and catching fire. These fires usually involve an electrical issue, collision, or sabotage. A majority of car accidents involve no fires, even when fuel is somehow leaked.

EV fires are dramatically worse than petrol fires. They basically cannot be extinguished. As the EVs on the road now get older and get into more accidents, they will be seen in more fires. The media and search engines are suppressing news of EV fires because it's bad for business and bad for certain politicians.

>Carrying tens of gallons of highly flammable liquid around is surely more dangerous than any battery.

Not really. These batteries are more stable under some conditions but can easily enter a state of thermal runaway and spew huge clouds of toxic and explosive fumes and/or burst into self-oxidizing chemical fireballs. They are basically impossible to extinguish and can reignite a month or two after the initial burn, potentially setting a whole junkyard on fire. It's far worse than gasoline or diesel, even in cases of arson.
