US Gov: “We’re not an apartheid state!”

US Gov: “…errrm”

I heard that Kubrick was such a perfectionist, he insisted they shot on location.

I think, at best, it shows that the observations are consistent with the model, or to take it back to the blurry low light photo… The photo wasn’t obviously not Trump.

I remember reading the original paper at the time and thinking, if I had been a reviewer I’d have wanted clear acknowledgement of the confirmation bias danger in the methodology. Ideally some sort of quantification of risk. It just seemed like too large a flaw to just be glossed over.

@[email protected] and yourself.

Having triggered this conversation off, I’ll just congratulate you both on a quality discussion. I’ll admit I used loose terminology in my original post, but that was mainly to get my point across to a general audience. The specificity you both went to is laudable.

She was the least worst candidate without a doubt. She wasn’t a good candidate.

If the SEC still existed I think there could have been jail time involved for a number of CEOs. However the SEC has been gutted.

Personally I’d like better representation.

The problem with direct democracy is that you can’t expect everyone to be knowledgeable on every topic whilst they go on living their normal life. A full time representative can spend time researching, or having advisors research. In theory they could be better informed than the public.

They’re not, but in theory they could be.

I don’t mean LLM. I mean a specific ML model for the job, but still trained off simulations.

Really? You’re not watching then.

A number of oblasts have had power grids hit causing blackouts, even districts of Moscow. It’s not anywhere near the incessant pounding that Ukraine has suffered, but it’s happening. Last week it was occupied Mariupol

Ukraine has also had a highly successful campaign of attacking oil refineries and transportation. This is more about cutting off Russia’s income, but gave rise to fuel shortages for the Russian people a few months ago. My understanding is that Russia has now managed to source refined fuel from other countries now

No. When looking at a shadow of a bird flying, you can’t understand how the bird is really moving.

In this case, the “centre-left” isn’t engaging on the issues that people face day to day. The right parties engage with them, but give fascist solutions. The fact that the problem is acknowledged attracts some people. Others it pushes to not vote. It looks like the population is moving right, but it actually that the electorate isn’t representable by the options available.

Well I don’t think they’re growing. Depending on the sector all the AI data scanning is a concern for a number of companies. I’ve seen a lot of European discussions about getting away from US cloud services too.

Literally, the story after this one in my feed was about a car feeding data to insurers. This stuff permeates so many aspects of life.

If they lose all the money they have pumped into AI, then they will be relying on Windows and Office.

Good for them that both of those are currently doing fine.

It’s a big matrix multiplier that is tailored for machine learning model evaluation (not training). Often they are low precision as that’s all you need for model evaluation (or “inference”).

Think of it as a much less useful GPU because it won’t do graphics.

Not a photo.

It’s the output of an AI model trained on simulations of black holes being asked to fill in the gaps from sparse observations.

2020s. Starts with COVID and gets worse

I don’t find the switch that odd. The Conservatives and Labour have shown that they are out of touch with the problems people are facing day to day.

Reform gain support by paying lip service to those issues. They then point the finger in the wrong direction as to the cause, using it as a way to drive they’re real agenda.

The greens are also addressing the problems people face, but proposing radical solutions from the other end of the spectrum.

So if you’re an ex-reform voter could go to a party that’s telling you your problems don’t exist. You go to the party that proposes a different solution.
