So 1/40 of Reuters annual revenues, 1/1000 of Facebook annual revenues, is being wasted on ... lobbying governments against internet censorship and cross-subsidising translations into less popular languages? How dare…
A strange take. Everything indicates that while the best human chess and Go players will continue to be incrementally better than all previous humans, computer players will improve much faster and leave all humans…
Idiomatically a handicap is a disadvantage not an advantage. So if Shin had two extra stones, KataGo had a two stone handicap.
Your father did not buy those so that isn't a counterexample to what the GP said. Clearly, something your father made with his own hands will have a different value to something he bought.
I have encountered many. For example if you find a password in plaintext in source control, you don't assume the person who put it there had a good reason, you assume they were deeply misguided.
Maybe your responsibility is to push back against the pressure put on you to deliver short-term.
My version was Chesterton's Facehugger. Something which, as soon as you discover it, you should immediately respond by trying to remove it, without asking questions about where it came from or what its purpose might be.
I think a more likely scenario is that GPU time in the cloud will be very cheap. If LLM use/profitability doesn't follow the expected path, new deep learning applications could be heavily subsidised.
This sounds like you are urging people not to disregard racism when comparing superpower regimes.
Whataboutism is a very useful game to reveal whether people are being honest or not. If someone is vocally complaining about country A doing some oppressive activity, while ignoring country B doing 100x the same…
Disagree. When tool limitations meant that this was the way people had to work, many people could do this. It was much more inefficient, because it's easier to find bugs after compiling or running the code. But it is…
You don't think neural networks are going to be a factor in drone wars? How far out do you think this prediction will hold?
You know that when there were COVID related supply chain disruptions to microchips coming out of Taiwan, Europe and the US actually found it impossible to make the right number of cars?
Offshoring into China was literally invented by Japanese, Korean and Taiwanese companies. We see high quality tech products coming out of the countries and assume that they're very good at building things. In fact they…
It's not a lot of reviewing if you simply find the first thing that makes the document unusable and call them out on it. If it's genuinely hard to find that single bug .. perhaps the document has reached the quality…
Just keep on spinning cotton thread the old way, ignore what they're building in Manchester..
Don't know if you are serious, but why become part of the problem? Why not just review a single document quickly, find an error which invalidates the document, and send it back saying "Policy paper 1 mentions X as being…
I think that's exactly the grandparent's point. Those conflicts are all the pretexts - they believe that it's actually class war and the other labels are all used to avoid calling it by its name.
This is not true. Plenty of Europeans have credit cards which work exactly like US credit cards. The main difference between credit cards in Europe and in the US is that poor people can't get them here.
No offense to the OP but this game is much more fun.

Does history record whether Hitler was using the good ol' giggles-and-joy pseudoephedrine meth or the evil psychosis-inducing P2P biker meth?
Have you ever been an addict? I have, and the argument that everyone addicted had some other issue going on is pretty pointless imho. Yes, they had some other issue, and now before fixing that issue they also have to…
This is complete rubbish. The peak years of the war on drugs had a variety of hard drugs available on street corners across all major cities. At best it kept some amount of some drugs less visible in some suburbs and…
The original Atlantic article, which this one is trying to refute, also doesn't present any evidence for the theory that 'new meth' has significant different effects on health. After a fact dump about different types of…
