Not really unless it somehow leads to fundamental regime change which can "disrupt" the various conditions described in the video. (Remove from power all the beneficiaries of current policies and replace them with better alterna

It's not about money per se, which can be printed etc. It's about missing supply of services and to some extent products.

And while it might be unpaid, credible CV-lines are more valuable than stretches of unemployment.

chroot was (is?) the recommended way of installing gentoo which is pedagogical. There are various handy (chroot) techniques that are probably considered "old school" now. For example, having a "rescue partition" which ca

Yep. A developer with "business impact" might be seen as a liability. One aspect might be that a developer who engages in "business" effectively stops being "subordinate". Management decisions need to be justif

Maya was always pirated by amateurs. The reason it fell out of fashion is probably because torrenting/pirating stopped being seen as "appropriate" for amateurs or learners.

Also, the "Alaska purchase" has both indoors and outdoor images. The outdoors clearly depicts Alaska but the correct location is supposed to be Washington DC.

Scoring function is unfair. If you get a location wrong with 100 km on a world map or the time wrong by 50 years, score drops like 50%.

In your example, you gave up before even trying? Be sure that almost everyone was hostile to Spotify very early on.

This is similar to "burn-in" for markov-chain montecarlo. When the chain is initialized to some bad value, it requires a number of iterations to get into a "good chain". But for a uniform RNG, any value should be good. S

As I understand it, the token embedding stream would be equivalent to multi-channel sampled waveforms. The model either needs to learn the embeddings by back-propagating through FFT and IFFT, or use some suitable tokenization scheme which t

There should be no scheduled maintenance the first two or three years, other than maybe tires and oil change, but skipping those don't "cause defects". Typical faults that cause failure are; uneven brake force, badly aligned

The difference isn't mainly in ethos or culture; those startups make services with zero marginal cost, and where growth and eventual near-monopoly is the only successful outcome. Europe lacks investors for those types of startups. &quo

My understanding was rather that the immune system removes cells with vaccine mRNA, which causes the various advertised negative side-effects. When the cells are removed, spike protein production stops.

How is "I condition myself to fail" the conclusion from the description of what happened? If there is little or no interest from the audience, then there is no action available other than changing the project and trying again.

If their time was actually wasted, paying a few or several thousand dollars for a tool would have been profitable a long time ago. Usually, there are hidden payoffs that motivate things that seem like waste.

Furthermore, the "additional cost" of an employee in Europe is a further 35% of the salary due to social fees. That is why contractors often don't cost more to the company, although it might seem like that to employees.

Lab leak and zoonotic origin are not mutually exclusive. The lab leak hypothesis means "accelerated evolution" through either caged animals or "in vitro cells" infecting the lab personnel. Gene splicing and such are not

For example, if it is meaningful to use large batch sizes, the gradient variance will be lower and adam could be equivalent to just momentum. As a model is trained, the gradient variance typically falls. Those optimizers all work to reduce

The base conversion insight was great. With this insight, the solution could have been just as compact and much more readable without using types. Sometimes it is possible to be too clever.

Set UK/EU tech salaries at maybe 30%-50% of US, and factor in higher taxes. Then integrate over 40 years, resulting in a number from which investments can be drawn. Add to the corresponding US number all the profitable exits from previ

True, on a hypersphere cosine and euclidean are equivalent. But if random embeddings are gaussian, they are distributed on a "cloud" around the hypersphere, so they are not equal.

"Energy and real GDP per capita, aggregate figures for G7 countries" seems the most telling to me. The world hit a limit in the rate of energy production, but governments wanted (depended on?) continued growth, so various mechanis
