  • Part of the reason we are seeing such an active protest movement now is that ICE is doing its thing in Minneapolis, which was able to mobilize the existing activist network that was created as a result of the police murder of notable white black person George Floyd. This murder was national news and led to police reform in a bunch of states.

    When notable white Salvadorian person Kilmar Abrego Garcia was illegal deported to a foreign torture prison, there was nation wide protest, with Senate Chris Van Hollen traveling to El Salvador. This nationwide protest movement eventually secured his release.

  • But they won't have the authority, protection, and power of the state to carry out violence.

  • Advanced calculus? In this house, we use numerical methods!

  • Datasets are not the only mechanism to train AI. You can also use reinforcement learning. This requires you to have a good fitness function. In some domains, that is not a problem. For LLMs, however, we do not have such a function. However, we can use a hybrid approach, where we train a model based on a data set and optimizing for fitness functions that address part of what we want (e.g. avoiding em dashes). In practice, this tends to be tricky, as ML tends to be a bit too good at optimizing for fitness functions, and will often do it in ways you don't want. This is why if you want to develop a real AI product, you actually need AI engineers who know what they are doing; not prompt engineers who will try and find the magic incantation that makes someone else's AI do what they want

  • US boy, 11, allegedly shoots father to death after Nintendo Switch taken away

    Jump

  • He's likely going to have mental health issues now, as a result of the shooting.

    As for pre-existing mental health issues; to me the most likely condition seems to be "was 11", which most people grow out of. As a thought experiment, how many 11 year olds are there that you would be comfortable having a gun unsupervised.

  • Probably a stupid question, but has anyplace tried just making business restrooms public. Cities already impose a lot of zoning requirements. It seems like adding this rule to high pedestrian zones should be entirely doable.

  • Makes perfect sense

  • Sometimes they end up that way (at which point they stop being contractions). However, there are also cases where distinct syntactic words end up being pronounced as phonetically single words. Or, as my morphology professor put it, "word" is not a meaningful category.

    For example, consider the sentence "I'm happy". What is the subject of this sentence? The verb? What part of speach is "I'm"?

  • Also, prior to the old testament being in the form it is today, the character that would become the one god was just a minor god within the Canaanite pantheon. A lot of the old testament makes more sense when read with that context.

  • Would China agree to that. They don't want to get dragged into a conflict with the US. Besides, if the US's strategy is that we control the Americas and stay out of the rest of the world, China will happily take that deal and go after Taiwan.

  • Its your fault you didint know about the "no posts on alternating Saturdays while Saturn is in retrograde" rule

    Jump

  • There's been experiments around changing speed limits. What they found is that people consistently speed by about a constant amount over the posted limit, so they keep the posted limit lower, and have all enforcement be at around 10mph over it.

    Yay path dependence!

  • As someone who actually does read the rules for a bunch of places; they often have no relationship to what actually gets enforced.

    This isn't just a problem for social media communities. A bunch of business use boilerplate contracts and terms-of-service that again have no relation to how they actually operate.

  • For new construction, nothing.

    For existing construction, it requires you to run a new circuit.

  • It’s time to accept that the US supreme court is illegitimate and must be replaced | Ryan Doerfler and Samuel Moyn

    Jump

  • You do not need a constitutional amendment. Until 1911; part of a Supreme Court Justice's job was "riding circuit", to serve on more local circuit courts. This practice was established and abolished by Congress. Congress has the existing constitutional authority to assign Justices to circuit courts.

    There is also a recently proposed TERM act, which would promote Justices to senior Justices after 18 years. A senior Justice is still a Justice, but would not actively decide cases unless there was a shortage of active Justices.

    Congress could also impeach some of the current Justices. Either for partisan political reasons; perjury at their confirmation; or blatant corruption.

  • I don't know about Europe. But the US (or at least the portion of the US federal government I deal with) has been trying to ban us from using memory unsafe languages for as long as I can remember. For us, Rust isn't replacing C; it is replacing Ada. The only difference is that they have stopped granting exceptions for new code bases in memory unsafe languages.
