I spend a lot of time thinking about developer tooling
It would probably fit in 32GB at 4-bit but probably won’t run with sensible quantization/perf on a 3090/4090 without other tricks like offloading. Depending on how likely the same experts are to be chosen for multiple sequential tokens, offloading experts may be viable.
I'm no legal expert but I'm reasonably confident one or both of Florida and the USA would find that to be an illegal transaction. Presumably Britain and Mauritius did not, at the time.
Anyone commercial already has to go in for 100hr inspections all the damn time. The STC is unlikely to cost much relative to that, nor to add much additional hassle.
Anyone private can deal with it, they own their own plane and knew it wasn’t going to be a cheap hobby going in.
G100UL will cost a bit more than 100LL but it seems likely this will change a bit as it becomes more widely used.
I guess it puts people operating midcentury radials that haven’t yet been certified for G100UL in a weird spot.
A tiny amount of fluoride is helpful for bones and especially teeth. Fluoridated toothpaste covers this need perfectly, but many people don’t use it. Fluoride in drinking water covers this need also but (arguably) brings along small risks of symptoms of slight excess fluoride consumption.
The amounts that are actually put in drinking water do not seem to have any significant negative effects, and it seems reasonably clear that the population positive effects dominate, but being non-consensually subjected to a marginal risk of negative effect in order to achieve a positive outcome for the population is exactly the kind of thing that reliably provokes this kind of reaction from the paranoid libertarian set.
e.g.:
int_key ::= DQUO ("f" ("e" ("atured-" ("b" ("log." ("p" ("ost_limit" | "a" ...
- they’re smaller chickens and it’s not as much cheaper as it seems
- it’s a loss leader.
This is an argument against using 256-color or true color though.
Is drinking bad for you? Yup. Is smoking bad for you? Yup.
Is moderate social drinking bad for you? Likely, but definitely less bad for you than slamming a 6-pack nightly.
Are there other (mainly socially-mediated) health benefits from moderate social drinking? Plausibly? Probably? Occasional social smoking? Probably in some contexts.
If these effects both exist, they can be compared. Do the risk curves intersect? Where? The crossover will land in different places for different people, different circumstances.
That simpler interpretation is also equivalent to a simpler implementation that doesn’t require apparently-arbitrary resolutions of quantum probabilities (MWI). It’s essentially a question of where you hide the “weird”.
It seems likely to me that they’re both wrong, and the in-principle-untestability of all this points to our mental machinery just failing to map intuitive concepts onto this space, but I’m totally agnostic to this. I do find MWI more conceptually appealing.
