Sad that it doesn't seem work for HTML! Maybe I will try taking a screenshot... Otherwise cool though, looks very promising.

This is true if there are no constraints, but the author mentions they introduce constraints like 'a person cannot give to their significant other' (or else it would be too hard to keep it a secret)

To play devil's advocate, they could be both ineffective and harmful. Just because they succeeded in getting the company to do something, that not mean it was the right thing. The sale of the drugs could have produced a net loss as w

Sounds exactly like me, got tested for Epstein Barr and sleep apnea with no results though. Let me know if you find anything.

Can you provide a source please?

I think the true narrative is probably somewhere in the middle of those. Did WikiLeaks not strategically publish information for their desired political outcome?

Yes I can second this. I'm a big fan of other similar-ish games like Deus Ex, Fallout, and Borderlands, and I can say Cyberpunk has done a great job of delivering some of the best components of each of those. There are a few bugs, th

Didn't they account for that? "Since the energy of a coin, if it's falling from a fixed height, is proportional to its mass, I would expect the sound energy to be proportional to its mass as well. So, this is what I did. I in

Yes I also feel that way to some degree, but I just never considered an integral to be closed form. There is some argument to be made for exp, as it is considered an 'elementary function'. I was going off this statement from wik

Not really an exact or closed form solution since it contains an integral. It is an explicit solution compared to the implicit one we had before.

What is the conspiracy theory you see being peddled here? The theory that the video was shadow banned as a result of its content, or the theories presented in the video itself?

Perhaps [1] has something to do with this? "Iran has openly announced all violations of the nuclear deal in advance, which have followed the decision by the U.S. to pull out unilaterally in 2018."

Typical model output is not actually a probability, but a mostly arbitrary number between 0 and 1. Models usually have to be calibrated to match probability.

I think this is pretty well explained by Chomsky's Propaganda Model, and unfortunately not very surprising. It is not that the governments of the US and UK have conspired to conceal the truth, but that the media has chosen to censor

I am surprised to see this on the front page of Hacker News. The article makes claims which are completely unsubstantiated. There is no audio/video evidence, and there is no other source (that I could find) corroborating the story, o

It's not as if these elements don't exist on the side of the police either. Check out the article "Teargassed, beaten up, arrested: what freedom of the press looks like in the US right now", for example. For either sid

As an American I somewhat agree with your sentiment in that Google is probably just as bad as ByteDance. However, I think we see about the same amount of flak against Google on this website so I don’t agree with your point about it being s

I'll start of by saying the author has provided some nice research. However, this particular example is the kind of thing where it doesn't even really matter wether its legitimate or not. The fact that it doesn't attribut

Kind of, I chose not to renew my lease in NYC and go live relatively far from work with my significant other and her mom.
