What language? LLMs make a lot of mistakes but syntax is rarely one of them.

I feel like my generation’s lead paint is contact sports, particularly American football. Obviously concussions cause issues, that is no surprise. What is surprising is that virtually every play, even in the absence of any major contact, is

Does anyone have good resources for learning about multimodal models? I'm not sure where to begin.

Perhaps it's always intragenerational bad luck that bites us. There must always be some unluckliest subgroup.

That sort of instability is so damaging beyond the boundaries of his term. Hopefully this restores a bit of confidence.

That's not entirely fair - there are all walks of life in those prisons. Some are undoubtedly beyond help, but the ones we can actually rehabilitate, or at least give meaningful work to, are not an opportunity worth overlooking.

This app is as gross as that one for anonymously discussing men - inevitably rife with abuse and negatively impacting innocents. Good riddance.

Lol nice. Talks about the potential for abuse of the new fee-based system. Doesn't mention the endemic abuse of the existing system once. Never change Paul.

Can we get this reproduced by someone not as obviously biased as the "Tax Justice Network"? It's absurd that this organisation's findings would be taken at face value.

Shooting someone through the throat with a high-powered rifle during a university debate certainly seems like an attack on free speech, but maybe I don't have your nuanced understanding of the issue.

Stop using British colonialism as an excuse for shitty behaviour, no one is buying that lazy argument anymore. So many places were under the yolk of the same historical forces and managed to pull themselves together - India is rather unique

Indians would rather import more Indians than hire anybody else (including Indian Americans) domestically. This is well understood by looking at lawsuits against WITCH companies, and by speaking with anyone who has seen what happens when an

Interesting… would you say the election was, erm, rigged?

Of course he only thinks it’s seditious when it’s the wrong team. Of course democracy is broken because his team lost the election.

This dialogue suggests to me you are incapable of conceiving of a high trust society. So much like the people we’re discussing, yes we need to harden the system because of people with your mentality. It might sound crazy but there was a tim

The fact that it’s the same spectrum of talent (in your experience) is a glaring indicator that the system has been systematically abused by Indian WITCH to the point it’s no longer fit for purpose. Unfortunately systems constructed in high

How is the problem solved? You have an entire industry dedicated to scamming immigration systems around the world and your solution is to simply avoid getting scammed? It’s a lot easier to cut them off as per the article. The problem IS the

Also to your original question here, I am involved with hiring :). I can differentiate with very little effort.

That’s a cute ad-hominem but ultimately off base because that’s not how the diploma mills scam works. I really encourage you to research those topics a bit - it is genuinely fascinating how complex the scams get. There’s also a bit of self-

Yes, scam. Scam. India. Scam. India. You’ve never heard of these two together? Google is your friend. Diploma mills, good old fashioned racial discrimination, hiding job listings in obscure outlets to avoid domestic applicants, man they are

Why are you using quotes around steal as though I used that word somewhere? Read what I wrote, repeat it to yourself when you fall asleep, come back tomorrow.

I didn’t include China. I also don’t think there’s any reason to close the borders to Indians. Rather, simply close off access to their Frankenstein cottage industry of scammers.
