I agree. While I managed our start ups finances, I so much preferred to stay doing everything in Excel over having to use our accountants system. And I get a glimpse into SAP from time to time as my wive is an accountant. It's incredib

As I understood it the issue with the infrastructure is not so much that electrified switched fail, but that there is not enough personal to man the monitoring and control stations for those switches. Which results in tracks getting blocked

We are lacking a comparison to those who did not get anything. As just someone taking an interest in you can have a lasting effect. So hard to say in absolute terms.

That's probably what the actual criminals will do. And the rest of us will get 5€ fines for using inappropriate language in our chats.

Someone else posted the NTSB video on the bridge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-VnWB4fiFk I am fairly certain that a large majority of people, if they'd have had access to those images of the bridges structural mem

Also, did anyone track actual voting results? What was the yes/no distribution for the compensation package? 51/49 or more 90/10?

So, do the directors voted in under #1 now get a one year, or a 3 year period?

Catch, yes. Float: not so much.

Given that the weather models are working on grid sizes 5km and up [1], and we often only get a report for a rough location like a whole city, meaning the prediction needs to be valid for 10s of square km, while our own personal observation

The interesting conclusion from this seems to be that the AI then could only get better when the underlying models improve, right? So we'd still need to keep working on them anyway, or not?

by pintxo 2y ago
If this thing is trained upon the existing models input + output, doesn't this just mean that the AI is a duplicate/aggregate of the existing model/models? E.g. the quality should be the same if trained on a single model, mig

Berlin did not have mobile connections inside the tunnels until very recently (this year, I believe). This included the trains not being connected to any outside network. Thus wifi on the subway was useless to implement.

Hitler had insisted on meeting in the exactly same rail car, within which the German surrender of WW1 had been signed, to have the French sign their surrender in WW2. If that's not a sign of hate, I don't know what is.

Afaik, the printed money to continue paying all the wages for the workers in the occupied area, who went on strike, due to the occupation. Don't think they could pay reparations with freshly printed Reichsmark.

The keyword is unambiguous here. Most rules have quite some leeway for the accountant/management to choose from.

The trick is to get reality mapped to your ledger. Someone has to make a decision into what account a given transaction has to be recorded to. Which depends as much on tax law as it depends on expected business practices.

Well, yes, the whole sub-prime lending issue was an accusation towards the education system.

Agreed, but for reasonable density you would probably want to go with 4-7 story apartment buildings. Which is what you will see in (most?) bigger European cities.

Funny that you start with agreeing that the meaning is ambiguous, and then follow up with it being trivial to parse. So what is it? Ambiguous or trivial to parse? I don’t think you can have it both ways.
