I wonder how many move back to Germany when fragile though. requires citizenship though? unless your permanent residency stays valid when you move abroad.
what would I have to use as search terms on Google scholar to find the many studies?
if you retire abroad you spend the pension abroad. that's a net loss for the nation.
I assume.thats your point here, but to bystanders: C2 is nearly native speaker language proficiency, nuanced, precise, eloquent.
if language production is the job, or impeccable understanding is a must have, like as a psychotherapist, then C2 is a reasonable requirement.
in contrast you can study in german language at a German university with C1 proficiency already.
dropping phone-in sick calls will sure as hell end those /s
this whole package is driven by populist disinformation.
in Germany we talk 350Mio€ vs 10Bio€ y/y
the us numbers will have a similar ratio
No. that's exactly not what is said.
it only is applicable to organisations and people who very clearly express not only some disagreement, but their intolerance and their plan and intent to enforce suppression of dissent once in power. and then suppression of whatever they are intolerant of.
and the far right very clearly announces that they will "eradicate" and "put to their (lower) place" whatever. immigrants. homosexuals. transgender humans. wom(b)en.
if you tolerate _that_, even pay for it, in times of ai boosted slander, you get queers in prisons, pregnant teenagers, and a few much richer very rich people.
for example standardized window management, left as an exercise to the GUI lib and the compositor? and woop woop X11 GUI apps need to be rewritten to support window management on WSL (Wayland based) and the network reconnect on hybernate also broke.
But at least Games are faster, aren't they...
if cond1 then res1
else if cond2 then res2
else if cond3 then res3
else or_else_res
or if cond1 then res1
elif cond2 then res2
elif cond3 then res3
else or_else_res
what is most lua-like?why is that? b/c the thing is waiting for the hoooman and idling? or some parallelizable interleaving steps?
I have no intuition yet how this works under the hood.
so the physical layout has a bit vector with one bit for each optional. and a popcnt over that bitvector (masked up to the value we're interested in) will give the actual slot to look into?
would also make sense to reorder / bucket fields by (byte) size
if you want to do that in any low level language (rust, c++) you have to deviate from their standard syntax for optionals, and you have to manually keep track of slot order. but for domains with many optional/default values, this amy really reduce cache pressure, no?
In higher level languages you can fake the effect (with flyweight facades), so from python such a packed "dataclass"-like class can look neat and clean. however at the low level there is no abstraction that allows to create your own data layout.
at least I didn't find anything yet.
then "give'm a computer ASAP" is the wrong answer.
the report also visualizes not only inter country but also intra country outcomes correlating socio economic influences (age, parents, family migration history, ...) and level of education (school, high school, college and higher) with test outcome (literacy, numerics problem solving)
it also has 10y ago/now comparison.
a trove for the Q "how are we doing, capability wise?"
thanks for pointing to the study!!

likewise for ~/.cache ($XDG_CACHE_HOME). does wxWindows provide a cross platform abstraction for the cache dir, too?
I see this structure:
* introduce dopamine fracking
* the wonderful strawberry analogy to what we loose, personally, by giving in to the substitue for the real thing
* how they (the author) managed to in baby steps turn down attempts at fracking _their_ dopamine: through awareness of what's happening and what were missing because of it
so until there is some bigger scale solution, we can at least self regulate.
and overall the article is a positive note in difficult times.
I especially loved the strawberry analogy.
if feasible this proposal is imho exactly what we need: a pause to collectively think how we get all the benefits without the potential harms.
to the non-techies around me I compare the boost of LLMs with the journey from slide rule via punch card driven computers through mainframes and PC to the smart phones of our days --- just within less than a decade, and we're at the transition from mainframe to PC with models that can produce reasonable output on a normal laptop.
how about we check we're getting where we want to get to, before getting to some dystopic place where everyone wonders how we got _there_?
I see nothing "full of themselves" in that.
We believe it would be good for the world to have the option to slow or temporarily pause frontier AI development to enable societal structures and alignment research to keep up with the advance of the technology. The Anthropic Institute will conduct research—in collaboration with many others—and take actions to help build the systems that a credible slowdown or pause would require. These systems would enable frontier AI developers to verify that others globally have actually stopped or slowed, and that a bad actor could not use the auspices of a coordinated slowdown to jump ahead in secret. If such systems existed, we expect that we would slow down or temporarily pause, if other developers at or near the frontier also did so in a verifiable manner.I wonder: how historically accurate is the animated feature film "Miss Hokusai"
it gives a great glimpse at the time and life of the artist.
the mondrian-alikes are too dense, too crowded for my taste.
a code owner may choose a very different way of fixing things, even for what looks like a trivial fix.
their plan might however be a Micro-Windows, which only boots the hyper-v, which then runs that Linux. that move would leverage the Microsoft Windows hardware certification.
