The density of these offices in downtown Seattle is super high and it's also an area that has a lot of crime so this implementation makes sense. Probably low ROI in other areas like your neighborhood that don't fit this profile.
Can you send me the video?
It's very useful if you change addresses often.
He paid Godinet 20,000 dollars but all he received was 2 sets. So basically Godinet scammed him instead of becoming a manufacturing partner.
It sounds like he retained the paper rather than disposing it.
Why do you think that? It reads like a magazine article to me.
I think they call it a Large Action Model not an LLM.
If you filter levels by a higher difficulty you can get some that require you to actually play.
It’s pretty universal among my friends in their early 20s, spanning across the country.
Except in this study they were comparing writing on a paper to writing on a tablet so it seems that somehow the fact that the writing happened to a piece of paper makes our memory better and its not just the act of writing itself.
I think the "other" in the Wikipedia articles refers to that the six listed (Andrew Viterbi, Franklin Antonio, Adelia Coffman, Andrew Cohen, Klein Gilhousen, and Harvey White) are in addition to the "leader" Irwin Jacobs, not that they are in addition to seven unlisted founders.
Wasn't the goal to make the girls interesting?
You can solve this easily by always flipping with the same side (doesn’t matter which) facing up for all flips.
It has a not-so-charming price tag (490 CAD).
I always end up with a bunch of extra painkillers after getting dental work done (wisdom teeth removal, gum graft, etc.)
Does anyone know of a good way to tile large PDFs (i.e. split a single PDF into smaller pages)? Adobe reader only allows you to do this when printing and you can't save the tiled PDF as its own file.
I think because the minimum focus distance for most phone cameras is around 8 inches so they have to film kind of far away or else it will go blurry.
What a concise narrative that would be!
The reason why Chomsky is relevant is because this post is a link to a book by Chomsky...
Try Qe8+ if it's check or Qxe8 if you're taking a piece.
Are you saying that bars in the UK are quiet? That sounds terrible if true, but I find it hard to believe.
Also very relevant is Brent's comment on that post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36366883
The dropdown is part of the Notion styling.
It's probably due to anti-aliasing. A similar thing happens on some versions of Windows with ClearType turned on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClearType
That looks like non-generative AI to me.
I would not characterize my comments as excessive charity. It’s an accurate summary of Toqueville’s essay and a rough comparison of his claims to the way history unfolded.
The 1848 revolutions you talk about occurred in different ways, but a way to generally characterize them is that they were all democratic with the aim of removing the old monarchical structures (regardless of the actual participants). This aligns with Toqueville’s claim that revolution stems from social division (which liberalism eliminates) and not other forms of inequality. The same is true of the Paris Commune; the third republic was initially dominated by monarchists and the Paris Commune as government was organized as a rival to the national government in Versailles/Bordeaux.
The American Civil war is another example that supports Tocqueville. The social stratification of slavery led to war but not the extreme inequality of the 1920s. Neither has the inequality of the present.
Tocqueville’s observation of the connection between social class and revolution also explain why the 20th century movements in Europe played out the way they did. Communist revolution occurred in Russia but not Germany. The fascist movements in liberal Germany and Italy took power without bloody revolution but the movement in Spain was tied to monarchists and thus there was civil war.
His main point is that liberalism provides off-ramps from violent revolution because people have other ways of wielding political power. In societies with strict social classes, the classes without political power have much greater incentives to fight. I imagine you wouldn’t disagree with this claim.
It's difficult to say that the chapter "Why Great Revolutions Will Become More Rare" was proven wrong by history. Tocqueville isn't saying that revolutions will become rare period. He says that in societies with social equality (that is, without a caste system), revolutions will become rare, even when other forms of equality exist such as wealth/income inequality. All the revolutions you talk about in this thread are in societies with social class delineation. In countries like America, we can witness first-hand how extreme wealth inequality has not produced revolution in the same way that social inequality has in the past.
He also argues that there are great incentives against revolution in societies when people possess things they could lose in a revolution (his main example is property). I think an example of this is May 68's failure to bring political change due to the Communist Party's nonviolent stance/cooperation with the Gaullists. We can debate back and forth why they took an antirevolutionary position but consensus seems to be that they at least did not want to surrender what political power they had won through elections.
He also makes other predictions about how equality in social conditions causes people to be more individualistic and less communal, but at the same time less unique. Again, I think we can witness this first hand in America. Maybe he's wrong about other claims, but I wouldn't say this essay is wrong based on the title alone, since the actual essay reads spot on.
The author really twists logic to make her point. Her main argument against the ruling is that copyright's historical purpose is to spread knowledge, so it should not be used to block controlled digital lending. However, the history laid out in the article is that "What persuaded early state and federal government actors to establish copyright was authors’ reluctance to release their books publicly without the ability to stop the then-rampant piracy by publishers." This original application for copyright is strikingly similar to its current use to prevent digital copying and distribution.
The CDL issue with the IA has been litigated multiple times on this forum by now, and the consensus seems to be that publishers weren't going to do anything about CDL until the IA started freely distributing digital copies in the early stages of the Covid pandemic. As someone who reads, I strongly support what the IA is doing, but as someone who produces content, I also want some way of controlling its usage. I wish the author would take a more nuanced approach to this topic rather than misconstruing reality to make the other side seem unreasonable.
There's no model yet, only a dataset.
I question if OpenAI can legally enforce their TOS regarding creating commercial models using their outputs. According to the FTC memo, AI-generated content cannot be copyrighted. Perhaps the worst that can happen is a banned account.
