Most of their economic policies, Medicare for Seniors, etc. apply to poor White folks as much as anyone. Harris never campaigned on trans issues whatsoever.
I think you are ignoring the lag time inherent in radically shifting international food supply chains, even if you have the money to pay almost any price for goods.

If Conservative counties stopped sending food to Democratic counties, the Democratic counties would collapse into chaos LONG before they are able to secure alternative food supplies. It's a Hell of a lot easier to go 90 days without "Big Tech & Big Pharma" than it is to go 90 days without grains and chicken from flyover country.

Amazing the cognitive dissonance.

Democrats say that people who oppose their strategies are racist, sexist, xenophobic, dumb, fascist, nazi, you name it.

Republicans say that people who oppose their strategies are racist, sexist, xenophobic, dumb, fascist, and nazi.

It's crazy that human beings with the new fandangled ability to communicate in ever easier ways have created this problem. This is your enemy. Social media, government rules are not the enemy. Nor the saviour you think it might be.

It looks like Kamala is going to fall more than 5M short of Biden’s 81M. With a bigger voting population and record in person turnout.

They can, but then in some cultures, their religious leaders will tell them they need to go through all that, many times, or else their god will be angry with them.
Kinda defeats the point of “AI PCs” then…
> The assertion that the deep state skews Democrat is so preposterous it sounds like an SNL sketch. Imagine a bunch of G-men sitting around in a conference room with oat milk lattes while the Cigarette Smoking Man lays out plans for the next year Pride parade.

The top LGBT-friendly employer these days is Raytheon. Even pre-Trump the Dems were the party of big government, unions, urbanity, education...; now they're also the party of military interventionism, the media, and really most of the establishment.

> Also consider that maybe only Republicans filed suits because their presidential candidate lost.

I'm talking in the run-up to this election before the outcome was known.

> No consequential voting irregularities were found

Now you're subtly narrowing the goalposts a whole lot. Voting irregularities, no (other than that ballot box getting set on fire, but I guess you're saying that's not "consequential"), but plenty of potential crime in the overall process (lists of names being added to the rolls at the last minute, that sort of thing). The legal challenges will likely be dropped, if they haven't already, because the Republicans won the election anyway, so what relief could they possibly ask a court to grant?

> the Democrats arguably had an even stronger incentive to commit widespread voter fraud than before, while the current President is a Democrat, and yet somehow all the fraud from 2020 is now just gone

Some of the alleged misdeeds of 2020 were only possible because the pandemic created an excuse - rapid expansion of postal voting in violation of the law and/or under "creative" executive orders was something that could happen in plain sight then, but would be rather harder to brush under the carpet now. But, again, a lot of the same allegations were being made in the run-up to this election - we're only not hearing so much about them because the Republicans won.
Couldn't you similarly question voting in-person?
I it’s not like he shied away from them before. I think he’s starting with a high number to force concessions from China, but we’ll still have some amount of more broad tariffs in the end.

Assume (say your null hypothesis) that 2020 had fraud by creating ballots that voted for Biden just in enough in several GA, AZ, PA, MI counties.

Now, say in 2024 -- that fraud did not work (could not be done).
How would it look at the number of voters who voted in 2024?

Is that plausible that it would like 'fewer people' voted in total, and also giving less votes to Harris?

If it is plausible, then that's the core of their argument, in my understanding.

> That some people are born better than others and they deserve more in life.

Isn't that simply factual human nature? If someone is tall, attractive, physically fit, hardworking, and intelligent, isn't it meritocratic for that person to accrue overall greater benefits/utility to their societal contributions compared to someone who is ugly, unfit, lazy, and stupid?

I wouldn't categorize that position as "far right" at all. I think the position you are trying to express is that the ugly/unfit/lazy/stupid should not be punished or abused by the government/laws/society just for existing. I would be surprised if you walked into an average MAGA rally and found a plurality of people who disagree with that.
This is an outlier. I met someone who was a millionaire working at Nvidia in 2018. That's not that uncommon working in tech. The stock has gone up about 30x since then. He's probably worth at least 20M if not more now. That's definitely an outlier.
But driving up the costs is a good thing in the big picture because negative externalities are artificially suppressed, the environmental, social and geopolitical cost of having cheap electronics and crap from China is way more high than anticipated. 1929 was another world, and economists have yet to update their view to the 21st century, GDP only is not the end goal.

I think there is a philosophical angle to this. I mean, my world map was constructed by chance interactions with the real world. Does this mean that the my world map is a close to the real world map, as their NN's map is to Manhattan? Is my world map full of non-existent streets, exits that are at the wrong place, etc. The NN map of Manhattan works almost 100% correctly when used for normal navigation but breaks apart badly when it has to plan a detour. How brittle is my world map?

That reminds me of the "Spanish flu", which should better be renamed "USA flu" -- until science later identifies another land of origin. But seriously: It is not uncommon that a term starts its career as a description, but petrifies as a label later, when it is too late to change it besides better knowledge. My favourite example is "oxygen", which literally means "acidifier". Lavoisier coined the term, because he wrongly thought that oxygen was part of all acids.
Yeah, not everything needs an LLM tacked on. Notepad is a lesson in tool minimalism; it serves a lot of use cases precisely because it has a small feature set.

Probably objectively correct.

> a monorepo with N completely independent long-lived branches

That's not a monorepo.
I only speak English, but I have found and theorized that one's ability to learn and retain a L2 is heavily affected by your society's "need" to communicate outside of the national language. This article largely reinforces that theory.

If people do not have a need to learn another language, it becomes an uphill battle. People in Finland report higher levels of English competency than people in France (despite French being much closer to English than Finnish is) because there are so many fewer Finnish speakers. Finns wanting to experience warm beaches or global cities need to communicate when traveling to those places outside of Finland. France meanwhile has mountains, beaches, a big domestic market, ample media, and international reach.

Japan is much more like France than Finland - the geographic diversity allows one to ski or sunbathe within the same country. The domestic market for goods and services is huge. Japan creates and exports so much culture that English speakers wish to learn Japanese to consume more of it. When there is little "need" to learn another language, it is not only less enticing but actually harder to do so.

This culminates in anglophones being at a disadvantage in acquiring a L2 compared to nearly anyone else. A lot of people worldwide do want to practice their English with a native speaker. Many international institutions use English as the lingua franca. Even during a layover in Montreal, my (then) girlfriend ordered a smoothie in French and was replied to in English (this could be a commentary on Canadian bilingualism, but I'll leave that for another day) - it's hard for an anglophone to practice and perfect another language when the world around them already speaks better English than their L2.

So considering Japan's strong domestic market, culture, and the stark differences between the languages, it was never a shock to me that their English proficiency isn't where one would immediately expect it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and the deep experience behind them.
> Market cap is the most important factor in return on investment right?

Completely wrong. Hint: You are on HN. Startups obviously don't start at a large market cap.
I know when I first heard it, my mind went to "canopic jars". Canopic is from Canopus, a name from Greek mythology. I mean, who's to say that there wasn't a guy or place named Synoptus? The Nicene Creed is named after the Council of Nicea, which took place in the city of the same name.

The fact that synopsis is a Greek word makes it even harder to discern because a lot of names and terms of early Christianity are Greek, just as much as Latin names and terms come along later. I don't think it's a religious thing at all. I think it's going to be common to anything that has a lot of terminology that is rooted in a foreign language and culture.

No, not unless the US changes its zoning laws drastically. They won't allow new housing in the cities, so the only way to increase population is if hordes of homeless people move in and camp out. However, the urban areas can increase in size, so that large areas are basically gigantic and growing suburbs.
Japan is actually quite large - its land area is about the same as Germany, and it's the 11th most populous country in the world.

> in democracy the rights of minority (of even as small as one individual) are protected

It's called «liberal democracy». The major differences between democracy and liberal democracy are 1) protection of minority rights up to individual freedom (one against all), 2) rule of law (law cannot be used to harm minorities), 3) free and fair elections (all people can vote and be elected).

Why? Is there a word play I don't understand?

I pronounce Biden as bidet+n.
All this handwringing about inflation, economy etc. I think it is lot simpler:

Most people are already set on who they will vote for. Perhaps Trump supporters more so than Democrats. So, it all boils down to turnout:

1. Kamala wasn't the candidate to bring out Democrats (no primary, not a popular choice even among Democrats, selected by the DNC)

2. Trump can bring out his voters. The added advantage was a female opponent. A number of his supporter (male and female) have a pretty strong misogynistic streak. They will turn out to vote against a female opponent just because of that. I suspect a male Democratic candidate (even Biden) would have done much better (entirely driven by lower turnout of Trump supporters as they would not have been so committed against a male opponent)

This is further supported by the results of 2018 /2022 mid-terms. Trump was not on the ballot. So, Republican turnout (especially the kind that is in the cult) was impacted and Democrats had a good showing. We will see the same in 2026 (even more so as the economy will tank over the next 2 years and Democrats will come out in force). I predict a clean sweep by Democrats in 2026 perhaps even 60 Senate seats (yes, the economy will be that bad) and then the impeachment will start.

I think he means in total, as in 1 hour each way. That's not unusual in America these days either. The difference in Japan is that, in Tokyo or other big city, that means sitting on a train most of that time (probably reading a book or looking at your phone), not actively driving.
I've never worked for Google. But my understanding is that their deployment code doesn't really on any of those 2700+ repositories. I believe it doesn't rely on anything that isn't checked into the monorepo.

If they spin out an open-source project, they either (1) continue development internally and (maybe) do periodic releases by exporting that directory from the monorepo; or (2) allow development to occur externally and periodically import changes when upgrading the version used by the monorepo.

Either way, the point is that to build any Google service, you checkout the monorepo and type whatever their equivalent of 'make' is. No external dependencies.

Heavily depends on how sophisticated are regex engines. Regex engines are like compilers, in that they are free to do anything as long as the result doesn't change (in a certain defined manner, of course), so engines can of course specialize for that particular regex. They don't even have to specially target the non-prime regex (yes, that matches 0, 1 or n*m copies of ones where n, m >= 2) by the way, because backreferences are already pretty rare and there are lots of potential optimizations to be made if they were much more popular. So the answer can greatly vary even when we limit ourselves to contemporary libraries. That said, it would be extremely more impractical to build a string made of 2^136279841 - 1 ones to run that regexp.

(Seriously though, it would make a very good April fools' day PR to recognize that particular regex and trigger a non-trivial prime check routine to match them.)
While basic core is about the same, different democracies have different guaranteed rights. And my comment, after living here for 25 years, was naturally US-centric. US guarantees free speech right including the right to deny Holocaust, so even that right to deny Holocaust has to be protected. US also has for example gun rights which also thus have to be protected. Other democracies for example don't have gun rights, and as you correctly noted have slightly different understanding and scope of the free speech.

I can't imagine training took more than a day with 8 A100 even with that vocab size [0] (does lightning do implicit vocab extension maybe?) and a batch size of 1 [1] or 64 [2] or 4096 [3] (I have not trawled through the repo and other wordk enough to see what they are actually using in the paper, and let's be real - we've all copied random min/nano/whatever GPT forks and not bothered renaming stuff). They mentioned their dataset is 120 million tokens, which is miniscule by transformer standards. Even with a more graph-based model making it 10X+ longer to train, 1.20 billion tokens per epoch equivalent shouldn't take more than a couple hours with no optimization.
