Microsoft also seems to be working in this space. They recently released this:

https://huggingface.co/microsoft/bitnet-embedding-0.6b

It’s a small multilingual embedding model designed for things like search, RAG, and semantic similarity. It supports a fairly large context window and is designed to run efficiently on a CPU in a GPU starved world.

The interesting part is that it builds on BitNet, using ternary weights of -1, 0, and 1 instead of the usual floating-point weights. That should make indexing and searching large amounts of text much cheaper without giving up too much accuracy.

My first thought after reading is that I fear for the author's safety. From the outside, this does not appear to be a safe time to express nationalism or cultural pride in the UK. The Internet is not free in the UK and decreasingly so in the rest of the world.

you should be able to comfortably go searching for evidence to falsify it and support the alternative, and fail to find such evidence, confident in your assumption that you won't find it.

The system is confidentially designed to provide little to no evidence of the fraud it allows. Even simple signature and ID checking is banned in California.

The system itself is the evidence of the fraud. It is purposefully designed to hide evidence and prevent detection.

You are obviously an intelligent person but you've allowed your curiosity to be subjugated by propaganda.

- "Senator Paul, with all due respect, you are entirely, entirely and completely incorrect. The NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology."

- "There's no reason to be walking around with a mask."

- "The accusation being circulated that I influenced the scientists to change their minds by bribing them with millions of dollars in grant money is absolutely false and simply preposterous."

- "When you get vaccinated, you not only protect your own health and that of the family but also you contribute to the community health by preventing the spread of the virus throughout the community. In other words, you become a dead end to the virus. And when there are a lot of dead ends around, the virus is not going to go anywhere."

I may be missing something, but this doesn't read to me like an abstraction or AI-related problem.

It sounds more like a packaging issue. I know he's attempted to edit his resume, but there's missing information here that OP may not even be aware of.

For instance, I recently became the last of two candidates interviewing for a great opportunity that I sadly lost. When I received feedback, it turned out the hiring committee had a completely different sense of one aspect of my work than I had attempted to convey. I'm glad I got the feedback, but it was frustrating to lose after so many interviews.

Then just recently, I interviewed a candidate at my current company who reminded me of OP. Laid off worker, very nice guy, but he had no idea how to portray himself as a dev at the level he was applying for.

I wanted to call him up and coach him, but it didn't seem appropriate, especially since he didn't ask for feedback.

If you are in this position, find a free coaching program that can help you revamp and resell what you have to offer.

It's not fair to have to do that just to get a chance to be paid a fair wage. But companies get thousands of resumes a month and do dozens of interviews.

We try to give candidates a chance to show us who they are, but if what they are showing us doesn’t line up with the role, or their strengths are buried, there’s only so much we can infer. It sucks, because the resume and interview are not the job. But they are the gate you have to get through before anyone sees the work.

Understand Anything 3 months ago

Every major leap forward triggers Luddism in those prone to histrionics.

You have to offload cognition in order to recognize the next abstraction. That's always been how we tackle harder problems.

A good explanation is foreplay, not a replacement for the act itself. If people stop there, that's a premature-pedagogy problem, not an AI problem.

Somewhere, an AI is summarizing this comment for someone right now, and that person understands the issue better than you do.

You're watching the wrong game.

This isn't politics. This is American imperialism. The constant wars happen regardless of who is elected or what they believe in. Even Obama had his Libya

The first thing you must understand, is this is the US protecting the Petro-dollar. China and Iran were trading goods for oil, and bypassing our currency. Nukes are a factor as well.

The rest is laid out plainly here: https://datarepublican.substack.com/p/data-analysis-of-the-s...

Gemini has a comprehensive ability to analyze video clips and offer an objective reality that circumvents viewer bias.

Can you objectively prove that? I've tried several times with Gemini 2.5 using heavily biased prompts.
