After the unexpected difficulty of the Ukraine war, how likely is it that they would try to extend themselves even further, against stronger countries than Ukraine?

Why not? Set up the laws to incentivize morality.

So's Harvard Medical School, right? But they get research grants from the government?

I hope so. In the meantime, we should try to preserve as much natural genetic information as possible, even assuming we can vet the species back.

Yeah, that’s all that happened -_-

Could become more of an issue as foot traffic increases if these changes are implemented

Am I crazy, or does the article seem to go out of its way to avoid using any pronouns for Tang?

Is this true of other vacuum-packed meats? Or are the primary of pathogens of concern aerobic for those?

No. To quote Hank Hill, we fought an entire war with England over that.

The economy is not a fixed pie that you can just take slices from one sector and give them to another. Financial services provide liquidity that supports every other sector; getting rid of them would cause contraction in every other sector.

Yeah, I was thinking that too, but I’m not sure how the law works. They might only not say it’s only those reasons as a CYA. And I wouldn’t be surprised if other recording was otherwise illegal without explicit consent, especially for minors. So I’m not saying it isn’t recording everything, I’m just not sure that it it’s.

It also says,

> This includes the real-time transmission of voice packets necessary for the call to function. If voicemail features are implemented, this includes recorded voicemail greetings and messages.

So maybe it is “collecting” the data only in these limited capacities? (which seem necessary for the thing to function)

Man, I like this idea but I also really love this website.

Interesting, thank you.

I didn't know that, thanks.

I agree. A quick search tells me the practice was started for legibility in hand-written manuscripts [1], or for that and also to emphasize the importance of the writer (seems egotistical to me :)) [2], or those reasons and also to help distinguish English from other languages but we don't really know [3].

I think it's unfortunate that the term "capitalism" has been captured by the left to mean the bad kind of capitalism, where regulation is only used as a moat for the established players. Capitalism as a whole is the least bad economic system for prosperity, but the least bad version of capitalism is something like the Nordic model, with good taxation and redistribution policies and consumer protections. But the term itself is poisoned, at least in U.S. politics, to where social democrat/liberal capitalists like Bernie call themselves socialists instead.

Could you use one LLM to filter out such bad training data before using it to train another one? Do they do this already?

He said he would reinstate freedom of speech, but did he actually? [1][2][3][4]

The fact that this is common is more reason to lament it, not less.

Is there a word for the good kind of pain that comes from healthy exertion?

To be fair, they did say "mostly".

(2.4x, not 2.4%)

Sadly, vets have a high suicide rate. This study found 1.6x the general population rate for male vets and 2.4% for females.

I have a vet friend that I talk to a lot. One thing that struck me was how many clients will bring in a dog with a serious, obvious malady (the one I remember was a dog with maggots in its anus, sorry for the visual) and will be like, “are you sure he’s in pain? He hasn’t been crying all day”. And it will be evident that this has been happening for weeks.

Yeah, I almost wrote ‘nearly have a theory of everything’ for that reason, but decided it wasn’t worth the extra words. We have a few plausible outlines of how life started, and IMO it doesn’t really matter all that much which one(s) actually happened. When we ourselves are doing biogenesis, there’s no requirement that it has to happen the way it happened before. It would be interesting to know, though, so if in your estimation we don’t have a theory of everything because of that, I’m okay with that.

Great point!

Some of them certainly do have some opinions outside the Overton Windows of many.

Yes, good addition—and in case it wasn’t clear, I was talking about how most slaves weren’t allowed to learn to read or write.

Cool! Seems about what I'd expect for an initially illiterate, persecuted minority's culture-specific holiday.

Everybody thinks those things are different, so that's not very interesting either.
