They are not mistakes, they are crimes. Anyone who worked in finance for more than a week can recognise their actions as such.

I don't know. My bottles of water aren't completely flatten when we land, something that I remember was always the case. Keeping in mind flying in the 90s means taking planes manufactured in the 70s and 80s (including a Caravelle!

NY isn't really smog filled. It is pretty windy and the straight broad streets ensure the wind flows. It's something that actually surprised me when I lived there. Trains, taxis and busses are also major contributors to the noise,

Pressurisation is better. In the 90s I would always have ear pains, which happened to me only once in the last 15 years, on an old brazilian b777.

One example that will kill loading a csv in excel beyond the usual dates problem. If you open in excel a csv file that has some large id stored as int64, they will be converted to an excel number (I suspect a double) and rounded. Also if yo

Particularly given that the satellites are absolutely minuscule compared to the distances between them. People are bad at conceptualising tiny fractions.

I love the idea of supersonic travel, but I can't help thinking that when you see how many things can go wrong in an airliner, how much safety was the result of trial and error, and how Boeing's woes shows how fragile safe manufac

Most of New York has 10-15 floors buildings with wide streets. Light and fresh air isn't a problem. But you can't really widen Paris street and the uniformity of the architecture is what makes it a beautiful city. Tourists aren&#x

You seem to neglect the cost of it. The city is nearly bankrupt, parisians will pay for this with high taxes for a very long time.

AI has this difference to the other booms that the resources required to train a large model are out of reach of a student in a college dorm.

Only if it is good for the country, otherwise it is at best demagogy, at worst corruption. And in this case borderline with gerrymandering (not by pushing constituency limits but by engineering a change in demographics).

The socialists who control the city have a majority but not a structural one (Paris was voting conservative for a long time). The gentrification of Paris would normally deplete their electorate, so you can see their efforts to buy prime rea

I think like every city it has good parts and bad parts. Food is great, lots of stuff to do, employment is ok, the city is generally superb. But the population is irascible, the metro is a dark, overcrowded, grafiti covered, piss-stinking p

> One quarter of residents in the French capital now live in government-owned housing, part of an aggressive effort to keep lower-income Parisians — and their businesses — in the city. I think they meant "...and their votes"

Don't know anything about this guy, so just speculating, but I can easily see having a self-destructing behaviour being correlated with becoming a whistleblower since it is usually done at great personal expenses.

I think not only zero, but zero cumulatively for the last 30 years. I can't think of a single example of a terrorist attack foiled at airport security.

Even for large ML/LLM models, how large is the part of the code that interacts with CUDA? In other words, how much of a moat does nvidia have if a better competitor comes up? My intuition is that the code itself could probably ported i

I was wondering how a missile interceptor was even possible in the 50s given the insane precision required to hit a bullet with a bullet at those speeds, but it actually uses a nuclear warhead.

Stupid question but don't the wings make most of the work in term of lift? I would assume you need less energy to pull some weight up in the air, obviously a lot slower also.

How can they even technically achieve that? You need to locate the exact location and drop some charges at presumably fairy deep depths Are these cables accessible by divers?

It's going to be hard to argue that section 230 applies to the output of LLM (and therefore Google is not liable) while at the same time arguing that the LLM are transformative and therefore what comes out isn't protected by copyr
