You are the one regarding them as failures. I had a variety of teachers in school, some were very educated (PhDs), and simply found a calling in teaching. Not everything is about money, you shouldn’t look down on teachers.

What do you mean he knew about it months ago? The point is that this is all just a fabrication, there is no story to address. That’s why they are pushing it now and not months ago.

I want to discourage anyone trying to “time dropping facts”, real or not. If you have real evidence then publish it when you get it. I disliked the NYT Trump taxes expose timing as well, although at least they put a bigger lead time to elec

“Facts” conveniently dropped right before election whose veracity cannot be proven and which were clearly placed to affect the election outcome should be treated as fake and not promulgated in public discourse. Otherwise it encourages relea

So maybe MSM would act poorly in that case, and? That’s not justification for acting poorly now.

So there is one shady person who says he is real but who can’t prove anything and other people in the emails deny them. Of course if the emails are fake then the forgers would include a confederate as one of the people in the chain.

This story is specifically being released now to influence the election. Presumably the people who got the email had it for a year, they could have released it earlier. The fact that these emails have no headers and are impossible to verify

It is about emails which have no headers, that are impossible to verify, that were “known to fbi” for a long time but didn’t produce any action (because likely fake), and that are specifically being pushed to change outcome of election desp

In general GPT3 is not SotA on (any?) classification task, did you just not have enough data to fine tune a discriminative transformer model? Inference should be cheaper with a smaller transformer/also less lock-in.

Beauty of life is not mortality. We mostly live in the moment, if involuntary death wasn’t an issue (and everything else was similar) then life would be subjectively better.

They are populating those regions with Han Chinese and are enforcing mass surveillance. I think the endgame is part ethnic cleansing part assimilation and no part Uighur with their historic culture.

Often time it leaves corporations simply to inflate the price of assets, which is not productive. While we have been lowering taxes past many decades the velocity of money has gone down.

My point is that even if it is 10% efficient, which is only 5 times more than your estimate, you have 4 months. Even if it is 2% efficient, you get ALMOST a month. Re: accelerating for many months at 1G is definitely bad physics, not only a

I am not sure how unreasonable is prolonged 1g. You can’t do it for months (since if it’s all in one direction you will start getting relativistic, one month of 1g gets you to almost 0.1c) but at medium speeds it isn’t too bad. Suppose you

If anything for large models I thought the idea is everything is a saddle point. Your link looks at a relatively small dense network.

Machine translation, search, recommendation, face/object detection, image processing are just a subset of very real technologies broadly deployed today that benefit from machine learning (a subset of AI).

It would be definitely illegal if Uber drivers were employees. As of now I bet it is not illegal.

Doing some more exploration on this. Apparently until you click “yes” it would spam you. And if you did click “yes” then your riders would get a message when they take a ride that you support prop 22. https://twitter.com/uni

I wasn’t even against prop 22 originally... Uber improves my QoL! But the campaign they are running is so extremely dirty that it pushed me against prop 22.

Ah yes, nothing like an employer telling employees how to vote (and yes, I understand Uber sees them as independent contractors).
