Well, I am Russian who has left the country for political reasons. I have some idea of what Russian government is capable of, and how critically they are interested in destabilizing the West.

To solve the "crisis", you need to fabricate the crisis first. Trump works with his Kremlin friends to create the very "problem" he promises to solve.

I can't find definitive proof in open sources, but yes, Russia smuggles migrants to Poland, to Finland, establishes control for the migration routes via Sahel to Southern Europe ( https://www.understandingwar.org/backgro

Most of the these routes are organized by Russian state actors to be used as a political weapon. The money paid by the would-be immigrants are also eventually going back to Russia.

Immigration is good in general and inevitable on mass scale. People will not understand why they are confined to a single country from birth.

A “multi-terabyte dataset” is something that fits into a single machine, and can be loaded into Clickhouse in a few minutes.

I have registered a company and used a business address (but this was a generic company, not related to any biotech activity). If you don't have your own company, you can ask someone who has one to use its name and delivery address pro

We have enough compute to simulate human brain. The theory and our understanding of human brain neurodynamics is not yet there. We are close to fully simulating mouse brain though (it basically works, save for a few wrinks)

Go is a simple, well-designed, easy language to build fun things with. If you want a language to feel clever instead, Haskell is always there.

This is not a useful model; in fact, things are quite bad here. I just wanted to say that US homeownership is absolutely exceptional, has no analogues anywhere else, and exists only by means of extensive government support. In most other co

Pff, in Switzerland, the mean age of the first-time home buyer is 48, and the mean age of a homeowner is 58. And those are the luckiest and the richest who could actually afford buying a house; many rent for life.

It is not a good idea to buy a car in most European cities if you only use it for commuting. We have working public transportation for that. So, you buy a car if you want road trips. There are exactly two fast charging networks in Europe: T

History is young, there’s too little data to go for meaningful conclusions yet, particularly post-industrial revolution. But yes, I agree, autocracy is a natural state of affairs. Democracy is a miracle to keep.

Autocracies are inherently unstable and dangerous in this regard. They have every incentive to be irrational and unwilling to negotiate. They call it “sovereignty”, which it isn’t — just a sparkling dictatorship. Autocracies have no place i

To be a tech hub, you need: - top-tier universities - a history of successful knowledge transfer projects between the academia and the industry - access to capital (so you need to cater to these VC types and offer them something they want)

Switzerland is very expensive. A stolen bike won’t bring you much money by local standards (and the crime will be investigated by police).

How do you measure the response? Also, it might be underaligned, so it is safer (from the legal point of view) to test it without formally associating it with OpenAI.
