Of course, western :) Sorry for the mistake.

See my other comment for footage from Marinka. Marinka is an eastern suburb of Donetsk City. Avdiivka, Soledar, Bakhmut, Vuhledar, ... all the famous names of the current phase of the war look about the same, since they received about the s

I heard from the people close to the frontline (medics, soldiers) that you're supposed to tightly tape all the glass in the windows so that a nearby explosion cannot blast you with glass fragments.

All in all the northern part of the country got relatively little damage. The front line in the Donbass looks like this, pretty much nuked down to basements: https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/10ee9at&#

Putting aside the quality of schools: how is this possible in the era of smartphones? I always thought that smartphones will put the final end to illiteracy, at least because of texting.

The shortest answer to whataboutism on this topic is that the invasion of Iraq was also criminal (second time, not the first time). It was based on lies, achieved very little, displaced and killed millions. Please do not do the disgusting R

That does not matter because the Treasury funded it with their t-bonds and t-bills, not with CPI (with a small exception for the TIPS notes). The US government is running with a constant debt unlike say Saudi Arabia which has a massive fund

Conveniently the short rate, the Fed funds rate was 0.00% - 0.25% until 2016, so I would say yes :) Also, even if it had to pay a little bit when adjusted for the cost of borrowing it's still a massive win. After all the government is

If it is exactly worthless (meaning the equity is worth $0, but everything below equity in the capital stack can still be serviced) then the government is getting it at a fair price while doing something good along the way. For all the vali

Whether or not a company is bankrupt is not and should not be decided by the shareholders. If it was decided by them they would obviously never declare it bankrupt. The mechanism for "getting paid with a snickers bar" is just a st

Eh, it misses the problem entirely. No person needs ChatGPT to say that "gays are bad" or how to make a pipe bomb for them to do some harm. If they want to try to do harm they simply will. What large language models enable, on sca

I would argue this could tip it the other way around, if peacetime allows for such loose monetary policy imagine what the wartime would allow for.

The model knows not where it is, but it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't it obtains a difference, or gradient. Gradient is used to generate corrective commands to drive the model from a position

And perhaps there's no other way? The Japanese did the same with their overpriced real estate provlem, Europe did the same with their almost defaulting countries.

Why though? I don't want to overwork a single day per week/quarter/year. And I have absolutely no fairness problems with that. If it can't be done this week it will be done next week. It's your problem to deal with

This comment is not following HN guidelines, but: I saw this and I was immediately sure that I could make this blow up exponentially. But then I got too lazy to think about exactly how, and instead waited for kind strangers on the Internet

I'm sorry but this is some useless mumbo-jumbo. Might even be GPT generated, though these days language models actually make more sense than this. There's no such thing as SyPi.

Farming in remote areas. Cities are death traps when a full scale war happens and they lose supplies, it's the same story every time. A typical picture is of some city dweller trading their valuable jewelry for some potatoes. Most rece

And you're comparing the loss of your swarm modem to an artillery shell popping your house like a balloon? Not to even mention nukes.

Japanese is actually top to bottom, but they largely gave up on that idea. Probably too much hassle.

You're right! I don't know why but I was thinking about the Minuteman all the time.

Arms procurement costs are very hard to pin down due to the cost of R&D and the cost of logistical packages. The same system can "cost" X but also 3X, 4X or sometimes even more if all of the real costs are properly included. A

Not only that but they're even printing their own US dollar bills (see superdollar or kattalio).

That's on the revenue front and is indeed important. On the product front: some search and generally data processing technologies are similar or even identical in Search an YouTube (YT Search, but definitely not only that).

Random Ukrainian soldiers are collecting money via PayPal (to buy good shoes or good combat gear), but that's quite far from an established non-profit.

The pound is already digital. Printed or minted currency is a small minority of the entire money supply, regardless if how you count the money supply. Most of the base currency is a digital record at the central bank.

Big data starts somewhere around a petabyte, maybe a bit lower than that. That's when you need some serious, dedicated systems. But as always everyone wants to (pretend to) do what the big players do.

If I'm not mistaken that's 0.1137 milisievert / hour. Meaning you have to stand glued to the tiles for about 4 years to get the LD50 lethal dose of about 4000 Sievert. Also, the lethality of the dose only really applies when
