Trade war is a set of trade related policies, winning a trade war is have a set of such policies which benefits your country. It doesn't even have to benefit your trade.

If you can cause more economic damage to your adversary than it can cause to you, then you can prevent the elevation of your adversary into a more significant threat.

So winning is certainly possible, especially because it can end in an actual war where one side will win.

An article on user interfaces that is barely usable on a mobile phone due to scroll hijacking is hardly making a convincing point.
Why does full mean to you never to interact with the car. This would mean L5 driving. They never claimed that. Even the mercedes system which is L4 is only working under certain conditions.

All the names you have given suggest, that it is not capable of managing a complete trip but it is.

If you do not need to do anything for 95% (often 100%) of the trip, which is true for most FSD drives, this would not qualify as FSD for you? Then we can end this discussion and just have different opinions.
The most important thing these articles don't understand is that it doesn't matter that they don't understand.

"How can this possibly work?" It doesn't matter, it already is. Almost every example of a failure or problem they point to is usually no failure or problem at all.

When someone doesn't understand or can't imagine why anyone should work on gpl software, all I say to that is "OK".

Ok. You don't think it makes any sense. Ok. My participation does not hinge on you understanding, and the quality and utility of the software and the garden that it grows in does not hinge on you understanding. Go forth and have nothing to do with this nonsense, with my honest blessing. I can do a thing without needing to try to convince you to do exactly as I do. We can be different.

Your participation hinges on you understanding, but if you aren't still a child and don't understand after 15 minutes with google, then it's because you don't want to understand and the whole deal is just not for you and you were never going to participate anyway, and that's ok. There is no problem to resolve there.

Open source, in the traditional simple gpl form without any further "fixes", already works exactly the way it was always intended to, regardless if you understand how it can possibly work. It's working perfectly well right now. All the big companies making billions while using gpl software is perfectly fine and they didn't steal anything unless they actually violated the gpl. (Which does happen but that's a seperate issue. People steal commercial software by violating it's license too.)

All the fixes actually just break it. As another commenter said about trying to add special modifications for commercial use etc: "You can do that. I won't contribute to a project with those terms but you can do that." And there's the breakage right there.
i started writing a response about how the human brain is designed to operate in an environment where classical physics is the norm, so we need to bridge the deviations from that if we are to really understand the world. But I don't know how much that's really true if you consider neural biology and I won't claim to know where quantum stops and classical begins as it relates to brain function.
> I would just prefer a ban never needing to come into play because we don't let things get bad

You need to be ready to ban because you're playing against folks who are willing to play that card. If Brussells doesn't want a ban because it's unsure it would be popular, that constrains their ability to regulate these platforms. Because they know, based on the same logic, that they can cut the cord and blame it on the EU to force back anything they don't like.
Haha :). I would have liked this name.
That doesn't explain anything. LLMs use text as input. This feature already transcribes locally and sends text to the cloud.
Everyone here got so political and it's a shame nobody is discussing counter-measures available. Sound is one of the easiest forms of energy to manipulate, it is easily absorbed, reflected and reverberated.

Because these systems exploit resonance in the skull and inner ear, in theory a thick motorcycle helmet should do the heavy work already for blocking some of these from reaching your skull, as well as blocking any random projectiles flying around. Additionally wool blankets or other thick, soft materials can be wrapped around the neck+head part to further reduce waves from entering your skull and resonating there.

Also if you can identify the dominant frequencies used by the device, you could design surfaces with materials that reflect or diffuse those waves effectively. Something like an array of concave acoustic reflectors or even a shield coated with a material tuned to reflect those frequencies might work. Redirecting the sound back at riot police would be ironic — wonder if they’d be as comfortable with it as they are deploying it against crowds. :D
Admiral Rickover, the father of the American nuclear navy, testified to congress that he thought we would probably destroy ourselves and hardly anyone is more expert than he was.

> Has anybody ever „won“ a trade war?

Yes, third parties.

"The most prominent trade war of the 20th century was ignited by the Smoot-Hawley Tariff act of 1930, which imposed steep tariffs on roughly 20,000 imported goods. Led by Canada, America’s trading partners retaliated with tariffs on United States exports, which plunged 61 percent from 1929 to 1933. The tariffs were repealed in 1934.

...

Professor Palen cited the late-19th-century trade wars between Canada and the United States, which caused a precipitous drop in Canadian exports to America and led Canada to seek export markets in Britain. 'The British Empire was the winner,' he said.

Another 'big winner' from a trade war it was not involved in, Professor Palen said, was Soviet Russia, which was largely shunned by Western trading partners after the 1917 revolution and the rise of communism, and was desperate for hard currency. The Smoot-Hawley tariffs, Professor Palen said, caused countries like Italy to abandon American imports and resume trading with the Soviets, forging trade links that persist today."

My desktop GPU can run small models at 185 tokens a second. Larger models with speculative decoding: 50t/s. With a small, finetuned model as the draft model, no, this won't take much power at all to run inference.

Whether this means it's a good idea, I don't think so, but the energy usage for parsing isn't why.

My assumption is that models are getting cheaper, fast. So you can build now with OpenAI/Anthropic/etc and swap it out for a local or hosted model in a year.

This doesn't work for all use cases but data extraction is pretty safe. Treat it like a database query -- a slow but high availability and relatively cheap call.

The majority of political posts, especially those that make it to the front page, are very quickly flagged. It feels much worse lately which makes sense considering the political climate in the US.
I always wonder how valid these actually are. There's probably a reasonable range.

Like a car park can say they're not liable for your car's safety, it doesn't mean they can steal your car. A roller coaster can say they're not liable for injuries but if they didn't inform you it's dangerous for pregnant people or if they violate some safety law, they're probably liable.

The bit about changing terms of service probably gives them some leeway to deal with law changes and stuff. If they're purposely being misleading to play bait and switch, that sounds like it's breaking a law somewhere.

I think in general this site avoids political news unless it's directly related to tech. While I agree the US politics is mad right now, it doesn't "gratify one's intellectual curiosity".

> Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, or celebrities, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

Obviously you don't mean NVIDIA, because 80% margins on matrix multiplication will last foreverrrrr.

It won't last forever.

The question will always be: Are we in the 1995 or the 2000 of the dotcom era?

By 1995, Cisco's stock had already increased 6x since the start of 1993. If you bought at 1995, you'd 10x by its peak. Even after the bust, Cisco's stock was still 50% higher than it was in 1995.

The problem with Nvidia's stock isn't demand. The problem is that Nvidia makes something so good and so valuable that the US government has decided to nationalize them by dictating who they can or can't sell to. If Nvidia is freely able to sell to any country they want, their sales and margins would be much higher right now. The demand is that great.
It collapses because by the time it is the majority owner the state will pay for it's own "profits".

GenAIs don't care if your scrapables were licensed under AGPLv3 or GFDLv1 or were even proprietary, they ingest and become at-most MIT, then spits out its lesser parody under public domain.

Under some versions of copyright laws and interpretations conceived before emergence of generative AI, this is either considered fair use and/or legally exempted as scientific research, because use of even copyrighted data were highly transformative; AI even capable of regurgitating dataset were previously unheard of.

This nature of generative types of AIs are controversial, but progress of discussions in that regard - whether it's to be ultimately upheld or not - had been moving at a glacial pace(as in slow).

I remember going through a TON of pirated SW to get useful PCB CAD programs on Amiga (being the graphic "beast" of the time) and wasted a ton on non-PC harware (basically everything from Sinclair QL to Atari ST lines and Amigas, from 500 to 1200) only to admit defeat years later and settle on plain old DOS PC and Tango.
