I’m not arguing Trumps use of tariffs was legal (in fact I’m of an opinion it’s obviously not). Just arguing there are cases where executive have rights to set tariffs and it does fall under foreign policy in those cases. As of blanket tari

I don’t think tariffs being foreign policy gives the president full control over them because foreign policy is presidents responsibility. Tariffs have this duality between being foreign policy and budget. So I don’t have issue with Congres

Yeah, mRNA vaccines to old style vaccines are similar to hardware + software vs analog machines of the past. Cool and "simple" tech. However there might be unintended consequences we need to study - for example from a comment abov

Gotcha, so you were criticizing right's hypocrisy on "rushed to production". I misunderstood you and got it opposite way.

This is fascinating study, thanks for sharing! It definitely brings questions about repeated mRNA vaccinations (and mRNA therapies I guess then too?). Good thing repeated boosters for COVID shouldn't affect other diseases if I understo

We had a disease killing 10000s (if not 100000s) people in the country and you think government shouldn't adjust their regulatory framework to it? I would be very unhappy if they did not, government suppose to be conservative, but not

Which is so unfortunate given the potential mRNA vaccines and therapies have. They would have made fighting flu so much easier (for the context current flu vaccines take a lot of time to be made each season and hence not very agile towards

I’m still excited about MRNA vaccines (and therapies). What’s wrong with Covid vaccines apart from particular politicians demonizing them and their respective electorate getting all crazy about non existing issues in their heads?

The policies you mention don’t target particular countries, and this is where the difference lies in my opinion. The part of the policies which is countries specific is in fact foreign policy.

by boroboro4 1y ago
It does affect trade (setting tariff high enough basically equals to no trade policy for example) with those countries and hence it is foreign policy.

You're literally replying to a comment putting in a great detail which statues were used in case of Trump tariffs this time and in case of Biden tariffs (and Trump to the extent) last time. Just saying "this is executive authority

Potentially they can codify broader authority for executive to regulate tariffs…

They can't host DeepSeek because it's too big. Their chips have 230mb of memory, so it will take them ~3000 chips to host the model + (possible large) number of chips to keep kv cache. I bet it's just too hard to bring such t

It's very hard to find right now but I'm sure they said they don't quantize KV cache, but their weights are in fp8.

Yep, was looking to see this comparison too. I loved their approach though.

Yeah, it might be a win for local inference. I think "output quality per compute" will be loss for diffusion models, but it might be similar (or even better?) for "output quality per number of parameters". Which will sti

Diffusion is about what goes into the model and what’s a result (in this case it’s denoising of the content) as opposed to autoregressive models (where the process is to predict continuation based on prefix). It’s orthogonal to model archit

You choose one very particular detail, critic it, don’t provide neither justification why it’s wrong or what would be better and behave like you’re correct about everything. Good luck, enjoy being “right”.
