Oh absolutely. I'm just curious because we never see articles like that on HN, so I wondered if something happened that made it newsworthy.

Ewe's milk yogurt is more caloric than plain cow's milk yogurt (because of higher fat content). Does that make ewe's milk yogurt "worse for you than UPF yogurt"?

No you couldn't. The reason is you can't just mix stuff like sweeteners into yogurt and ship it or you end up with a gloopy goop as I say above. The thing that people don't get about yogurt is that it's a gel, and one wi

>> They produce lactic acid, which is a stabilizer. Is it? The role of lactic acid in yogurt is to hydrolyze milk proteins and turn them into solids, so you can eat it with a spoon.

Sorry, I'm not convinced. "make_more_likely" is always maximising the probability of the next token given a sequence of preceding tokens. That's what we mean when we say "next token prediction", that the model

Why Japan? How about the UK, or the US? Aren't those a bit more relevant? Those are certainly not racially homogeneous societies but why is it that racial differences are also cultural differences? Like, don't all Americans, black

It doesn't seem execution was a problem. From Kevin Buzzard's blog: I’ve compiled the code base and run comparator on it — it checks out. It is a gigantic proof (over 13.4 million lines of code) and takes nearly 20 times as long

Wait. Is it racial or is it cultural? There's a difference there. Do you believe it's possible to have cultural homogeneity without having racial homogeneity? Btw I think you're wrong: people can be extremely xenophobic with
