I wouldn't be suprised if this attitude is indeed prevalent at Amazon and across studio executives as a whole. But the lack of respect for the process of crafting a good story seems to me to be why all these studios keep churning out rubbish that is eating away their bottom lines and destroying the very expensive franchises they keep buying then end up winding down.
The UK has also now passed laws that criminalise hogging the middle or fast lanes on motorways (UK highways). Unfortunately it's not strongly enforced. It feels like a significant cause of congestion during peak hours.
It’s surprising how many people get them mixed up even in the UK.
England is one country of the United Kingdom. Scotland, England and Wales make up the island of Great Britain, the largest of the British Isles. The UK also includes Northern Ireland. Hence: The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Island.
I was confused too, thought that Great Britain referred to the archipelago as a whole (excluding Ireland) rather than the largest island.
I’d agree nationalism played a big role, but I’d also argue that was being driven by a right wing press that had used Europe as a scapegoat for decades to explain away economic disparity. Meanwhile there are legitimate complaints about the EU, its opaque democracy and extensive bureaucracy.
The British empire reached its territorial peak in about 1921. This article is more about its domestic economic decline during the late 19th century.
Interesting, is your model still based on radiographs alone, or can it look at cross-sectional imaging as well?
The FRCR 2b examination consists of three parts, a rapid reporting component (the candidate assess around 35 x-rays in 30 minutes where the candidate is simply expected to mark the film as normal or abnormal, this is a perceptual test and is largely limited to simple fracture vs normal) alongside a viva and long cases component where the candidate reviews more complex examinations and is expected to provide a report, differential diagnosis and management plan.
A quick look at the paper in the BMJ shows that the model did not sit the FRCR 2b examination as claimed, but was given a cut down mock up of the rapid reporting part of the examination invented by one of the authors.

Even without the US guarantee, I strongly doubt the UK would have entered an actual shooting war with Iceland over fish.
When you say the UK, what you mean is a group of corrupt private companies that find it more convenient and cost friendly to dump raw sewage rather than correctly process it. I'm fairly sure the majority of people in the UK would be in favour of nationalising such companies and instead dumping their executives into the river instead [1].
I’ve heard that distinction used in the UK.
The other down side of buoyancy aids I was told about is that many (most?) will not turn you face up if you are unconscious. Gives useful extra mobility for sports but can be fatal if the wearer is unconscious.
Like in the youtube video's comments section, I suspect everyone on HN is going to assume that the ATC was simply being petty, and perhaps that was the case. But...
We don't know what the approach into SFO looked like that night, but you can bet it was busy. VASAviation videos are often highly misleading in this regard. Most of the talk on the ATC frequency is cut (sometimes explicitly, sometimes not) leaving just that relevant to the videos content, the time is compressed and they only plot a few of the planes involved, making the airspace look clear.
My understanding is that SFO often has two closely spaced parallel runways taking arrivals. The visual approach is preferred because then the pilots on parallel approaches keep visual separation from each other, allowing more frequent landings. An ILS approach requires more space between planes (because ATC remains responsible for separation). Hence, the Lufthansa had to wait for a gap big enough to fit that ILS approach in, or the whole stack of planes lined up for the approach would have to be juggled - how feasible that would be I don't know.
Lovely! Learnt about the Hildas.
One possible bug (??): when looking down on the system (press the system button on the bottom centre panel, 90 degrees to the ecliptic) the orbit of pluto will be projected to cross or not cross that of neptune depending on which side of the system you look down from.
The SEC’s position is very clear - they could be registered as securities and are securities but the SEC is not going to register them because they would like crypto to go away.
Also a licence to operate as a broker does not permit you to operate as an exchange. They are very different things, separated in traditional finance to prevent the sort of shenanigans (like trading against your own customers) that crypto exchanges get up to.
If you look at the recent SEC filing, they present evidence Coinbase likely knew what they were doing was illegal and coached companies wanting to list coins on the exchange on how to remove “problematic language” from their promotional material that might make it too obvious they were selling unregistered securities.
If your coin meets the Howie test it’s a security and must be registered with the SEC. If you go to the SEC and say “hey, please register my security so I can scam some people”, and they say no, your security doesn’t stop being a security, it’s just not a registered security. Going on to cry about them then prosecuting you for operating an unregistered securities exchange is purile.
Genuine question (I don't really know anything about crypto or finance): why isn't coinbase buying up USDC at these prices? They should have confidence USDC will repeg as they hold the backing assets, and may as well prop up the price of USDC to maintain confidence while keeping any price difference as profit.
YouTube shows adds on videos even if they are not chosen for monetisation by the creator. Not all, but some.
They even show adds on channels which have not reached the viewership metrics required to apply to be allowed to monetise your content in the first place.
The only difference in these cases is YouTube keeps all the advertising revenue generated.
There have been 236 shootings resulting in death or injury in American schools since 2010.

Firearms related injuries are the leading cause of death of children and adolescents in the USA.
Not the parent poster. The vast number of commenters in this thread seem to assume that these LLMs are close to, if not actually, general AIs. It’s quite refreshing to see comments challenging the hype.
Don’t you think the burden of proof lies with those that think this is something more than a just a dumb statistical model?
In 2017 (a year for which I have statistics) France spent 25% more per person on healthcare than the UK.
https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthan...
In 2017, the UK spent £2,989 per person on healthcare, which was around the median for members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development: OECD.
of the G7 group of large, developed economies, UK healthcare spending per person was the second-lowest, with the highest spenders being France (£3,737), Germany (£4,432) and the United States (£7,736).
As a percentage of GDP, UK healthcare spending fell from 9.8% in 2013 to 9.6% in 2017.

Health care inflation is significantly higher than the retail price index. The population is aging - older people consume far more health resources than younger people.
NHS management overhead takes up approximately 8% of the total NHS budget [1] In the US that number is more like 15-20% [2].

I truly wish we had this south of the border. The public footpaths in the English Midlands seem hedged in by one Private Land No Trespassing sign after another.
Not a vulcanologist but, the hawaiian volcanoes largely erupt low viscosity (low silica) basalt lavas. Consequently they are not generally explosive in the way volcanoes with higher viscosity lavas (higher silica content) like andesite or dacite are. They don’t produce ash in a way that could have a major effect on the global climate.
Happy to be corrected by someone more in the know, but I think the main risk to the wider pacific would be a flank collapse and associated tsunami but the probabilities of this are very low.
There is evidence of previous such events: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilina_Slump
GeologyHub did a short video update on the building warning signs of a likely magmatic intrusion and possible lava flow paths a couple of weeks ago (based off USGS info). I always find his videos interesting and informative.
Perhaps it’s about responsibility. It’s not the compilers fault if you chose to compile and run malware. But you could blame the compiler if it ran malware during the compilation process.
Interesting! I’d always assumed the yellow objects UK soldiers seem to have on the ends of their rifle barrels when simulating an engagement were to catch an accidental live round, but perhaps they have the purpose you suggest.
