I don't think you understand how the Chinese car market works at all.

This isn't about VW selling German cars in China. This is about every major car maker having set up large JVs. The distinction between Chinese and EU companies is increasingly blurred.
Oh god, Windows is a maintenance nightmare!

Every time I'd speak to some relative, the conversation would invariably turn to "Can you do something about my computer? It's so slow!"

And then I'd go take a look and find it riddled with spyware and bloatware and a thousand million processes running in the background that actively try to undermine uninstalling this garbage. I mean, why the hell does a MOUSE DRIVER require 2GB of space??? And the virus scanners - these are the worst offenders of all!

Linux is a smaller market with fewer threat actors. It's not being pushed into an advertising platform. It runs everything that 90% of computer users want. I can trust most distributions to keep things light and snappy.

It's just no contest when it comes to non-tech-savvy people. Linux makes it all so much better once you get it going. I wouldn't install it on someone's laptop, though (unless the laptop was specifically designed for it). If they want a laptop, macbook.
Yes. Card counters (advantage players at blackjack) studied shuffle tracking. I haven't seen much good material published on it, but I played on a team with a math whiz (physicist) who ran the numbers. For the casino we were playing at the time, the last 20 or so cards would be distributed over the bottom half of a six-deck shoe. A strategic cut would bring those three decks to the front, and you could play with a slight advantage.

Suppose you're at a full table and 12 of the last 20 cards are aces or tens (rare but possible). These get shuffled and cut into the first three decks, giving you a true count of four (12/3) for the first half of the shoe, which is significant.

We never really put it into practice, though, since: 1) you have to track the count for the last 20 cards in addition to the regular count, 2) shuffles change, 3) dealers are inconsistent, 3) casinos use different shuffles, 4) the typical advantage is likely to be much smaller.

My knowledge on this is at least 20 years out of date, though, so who knows?
Are you trying to make a point or..? It's a bit unclear. People can have multiple languages they're native in, that doesn't mean we should try to replace every language with English.
You have no proof that every modification of the architecture will continue to have hallucinations. How could you prove that? Even LeCunn admits that the right modification could solve the issue.

You're trying to make this point in a circular way - saying it's impossible just because you say it's impossible - for some reason other than trying to get to the bottom of the truth. You want to believe that there's some kind of guarantee that no offspring of the auto regressive architecture can never get rid of hallucinations.

I'm saying they're simply no such guarantee.

The background here is that "ctpop < 2" or "ctpop == 1" (depending on zero behavior) is LLVM's canonical representation for a "power of two" check. It is used on the premise that the backend will expand it back into a cheap bitwise check and not use an actual ctpop operation. However, due to complex interactions in the backend, this does not actually happen in this case (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/94829).
Are there segments of the population which just don't use or aren't aware of the word "delve"? "I delved into it" meaning "I researched it in depth" is a very common idiom where I live and in my work. I encounter this word all the time and find nothing usual about it.

In Switzerland it's mostly about taxes, the tax rates change based on the canton and town, often widely so. It's also about voting rights, but it's much less a concern.

I think in countries where the majority of tax receipts come from income tax, they care a lot more about where you live than in countries like the US (and Australia apparently?) where they rely more in property taxes.
Usually people have one primary language which is usually the one predominantly used in the home they grew up in (or maybe the one used for their primary education).

If you have multiple, that's fine, but your disregarding the reality for 90%+ of people if you don't think most people have a language that is their "primary".

> It does not matter to me which language I use to communicate. Why should it?

For most people language is tied to their culture and history. I'm just saying that we should not mandate that people use a certain language as their "primary". It would be nice if we had a global way to passably communicate though.

That's where the heavy pruning comes in. If there's too much coming in, it's important to get rid of the ones that are less important or most often skipped.

If these tariffs result in a major trade war between the EU and China hundreds of thousands of manufacturing and engineering jobs in the EU will be lost. EU car companies and their suppliers heavily rely on selling to China, if they can't do that they will have to shrink.

Not competing is the greatest threat to car makers. Which is why all major German car makers oppose the Tarifs.

> It is okay for there to be a normal human experience, and define inability to participate as a disability.

That's what most people normally do, yes. Then many people out there define an "ability to enjoy hetero sex" as a "normal human experience" and therefore see gayness as a disability that needs a cure.

I'm not arguing about the conclusion here, but about the method and the basis for deriving this conclusion.

The initial comment in this thread declared deafness to be an "actual defect" while gayness "is just people being inherently gay". Such division is completely arbitrary and doesn't follow from any law of nature. Only from current societal views which change a lot with time.

> “They don’t pick up their negatives,” Cohen said of his customers, guessing that maybe 10 percent of them return for the rolls.

"Return"? How does this work? You can't make a print without the negative, so why not give them to the customer in the same envelope? Why would the customer need to come back to get the negatives? What am I missing?

... Aaah, that's what I was missing:

> In the digital age, most shops where people get their film developed will scan the negatives into a computer and just email the photographs to their customers.

Ok. So the question that remains is why? Why shoot on film today if you're not interested in keeping the negatives and printing yourself?

Digital photography is incredibly convenient and incredibly powerful; you can simulate any film in post if you shoot raw. It's completely understandable that some people would still prefer to own the whole process and shoot on film, but doing it like this, halfway, and keeping just the scans seems very strange.
Cool project, but I’ll stick with Dokku, which is a wonder for managing single server deploys via Docker/Git.
But then you have to fight with Rust.

The market is also quite complex, often EU makers compete through JVs.

> With this in mind insurance is a service worth paying for as long as the fee is lower than utility you gain from it.

Insurance is invariably a "for profit" enterprise so the utility or return across all participants has to be lower than the value invested/paid. Clearly you are protecting an unlikely situation so the utility value of peace of mind would need to be quantified.

Gambling has utility too...entertainment. How someone measures that is up to them I guess. Excessive gambling, just like excessive insurance, is wasteful as well.

IMHO, I don't think your argument stacks up.

How can this be true when EU companies have been extremely successful in China?
Indeed, all post-processing will need to be done again, and sometimes they do a questionable job, like in the case of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. So there is a lot of challenges with a remaster.

Still, the possibility to extract more information is there, which is a plus for film. With AI, I feel the opposite. I like it that it's fun, but I dislike it that AI creates new information. What's again exciting for me is the possibility of extracting information from a moving picture from movements, and over time. I think these two angles are currently under-utilized, but hold much potential, once we discover more techniques and throw more processing power over the problem.
This 160 Gbp genome dwarfs the human genome by over 50 times. Yet, its complexity as an organism doesn't match this genomic enormity. This stark disconnection, a modern twist on the C-value paradox, suggests that genome size and organism complexity are far from straightforwardly linked. Instead of functional genes, the vast expanse of DNA is dominated by polyploidy and non-coding repetitive elements. This discovery pushes us to rethink the biological and evolutionary implications of such massive genomes and what drives their expansion.

things like bad package management, horrible developer experience, absolutely no drive in the ecosystem to improve anything beyond the “pinnacle” of wrapping C libraries are all both inevitable and symptoms of a poorly designed ecosystem.

Sam Altman's high-school English teacher hoped he wouldn't go into technology
There is not, and never was an overpopulation problem. If there was, we'd be experiencing famines and not an obesity epidemic. Maltheus assumed exponential growth in population but linear growth in resources. This was a highly inaccurate assumption as it turns out. Our ability to increase accessible resources has greatly outpaced our population growth since the dawn of the industrial revolution.
I've watched a few talks about the STL containers. I don't think they're savage enough. In particular the C++ growable array type std::vector is often cited as good. Is it terrible? No. But it's still not actually as good as it should be, we can easily do better if we provide the proper API.

Growable arrays are a very popular idea. Your preferred language almost certainly has them, but they might be built in to the language as an optimisation, if "normal" arrays in your language can grow and that's fast enough, chances are you're got the growable array type just as the only array, which is fine (but won't fly on tiny embedded systems).

This type has amortized O(1) aka constant time growth, which is one of those tricks which is amazing if you've never seen it before, then it just seeps into your understanding of the world and so it's easy to imagine why C++ doesn't do any better.

As a necessary optimisation beyond the amortized growth we must be able to tell a growable array hints about its future size. The only hint provided in the C++ STL is reserve, which tells the array its maximum final size. Rust calls this hint Vec::reserve_exact, if our array isn't this big, we should grow immediately, makes sense.

Here's where the problem kicks in: Suppose I don't know the maximum final size, but I do know I need to put say, at least 50 more things in the container? Algorithmically the answer is actually yes, the amortized growth can be preserved if we either grow sooner or skip growth steps and otherwise the hint can be ignored, this is Rust's Vec::reserve

If we try to use the C++ reserve here (aka Vec::reserve_exact) even though this isn't the final size, we destroy our amortized growth performance, our container may have lousy performance. If we just don't bother because we can't express our hint, our container has worse performance than necessary because we grow more often or less optimally.
The only thing the EU can do is make sure it keeps the internal market and its players on equal footing.

The EU cannot make the rules in China or regulate their market and China rarely plays by any rules anyway, even the ones they ostensibly set. In other words, China has broken trust on every possible occasion so any "ground making" today is worthless tomorrow. How many times would you invest in the hopes of "this time it will work" with a partner who keeps pulling the rug from underneath you every time?
> as a second language

It should go beyond that, a second official language, so that all signs, documents and government interactions should be just as valid in both languages.
Actually, insurance is very often positive expected value for the individual. He's paying the insurance company $n, which the company reinvests for even higher expected value, which is how the company makes a profit even when it's paying out to its customers slightly more than they put in. It's essentially the bank model.

I suppose that even when insurance is negative, its primary function is to buy protection against being shunted to $0 value. You're paying value to eliminate risk.

EDIT: I understand that ideally, Vulkan should work as middleware - abstracted away from the application layer devs.

Are there any good higher-level APIs for Vulkan, or game engines that use Vulkan? Or must everyone "roll out" their own?

> often EU makers compete through JVs

So they have to give up IP and control and part of their business to compete.

That does not seem fair since China based companies are not forced to do the same.

Can you even call them EU anymore? (since china typically requires 51% control to be chinese...)
They're after the "look" of film in general, and in some cases the look of the individual film stock. It can be hard to emulate digitally, although you can get similar results. Film can also be a lot more forgiving, gracefully rolling off highlights that you can usually still get something out of, unlike digital which is a straight up clipping of the values.

It can also be about the process. I know when I shoot film I'm fully conscious that I've got only 36 exposures, I've got a set sensitivity, and my film stock reacts a certain way in certain situations. Limitations can be fun to work with.

All that said, I always take my negatives, but it's understandable why a lot of people don't. I don't think it's a big deal.
>Maybe the should start pulling out of China before they get nationalized and focus on rest of the global market

This will ruin EU car makers. Abandoning a strong position because you are afraid you can't compete is a disastrous policy.

Plainly false. It can do what is doing now, ruining it's local economy or it can fight to make sure EU companies can function from a position of strength.

EU car makers are very successful in China. Every German car maker opposes the Tarifs for that reason.
Japanese cars didn't originally just appeal in the US because they were cheaper than the domestic ones, but because they were of higher quality and more advanced than the crap GM or Ford were shoveling out the factory doors.

Chinese companies can also move production to cheap labor EU areas like Slovakia, Hungary and Romania to escape tariffs, and if Chinese players move the goal posts on quality and innovation in the EV sector, then the EU domestic players are screwed, since the quality on affordable EU cars is nothing to write home about, leaving them banking on the brand prestige and domestic history to attract customers, but that goes away over time as proven by the success of Japanese and Korean players in the west which were also initially ridiculed for being knockoffs.

Consumers vote with their wallets, and the appeal of inferior domestic brands just because they're local is very limited. Do you see Americans rushing to fly Boeing just because they're an American brand?
