It’s not just you. The speedup is an artefact of the CFG (Classifier-Free Guidance) the model uses. The other problem is the speedup isn’t constant—it actually accelerates as the generation progresses. The Parakeet paper [1] (which OP lifte

Long-term trade deficits are intrinsically bad. The tariffs directly address this by being exactly weighed by said deficit. See the OTR report [1]: > To conceptualize reciprocal tariffs, the tariff rates that would drive bilateral trade

Correct; it doesn't. However, (1) Tariffs will not affect all commodities in the same class equally, creating a natural price advantage, even at the level of consumers. While not absolute autarky, demand will continue to shift to less

I am in the minority here. These tariffs are fairly reasonable. Here's why: (1) The state has a compelling interest in regulating market risk tolerance. When the FED sets the risk-free interest rate, it controls the price of risk, and
