Well, force yourself to care.

I'd argue that there is a very strong value in doing something good, not just because it's genetically or socially imprinted on you, but because you actually decide to do it.

This applies to everything, there is no merit in being good at something just because you were born that way.

Google and Meta are both Advertising companies.

If we want to decrease a tiny bit the insane imbalance in societies we need to have a strong discussion about taxing advertising.

Non-Hebbian and Anti-Hebbian potentiation have been well studied for decades. Anti-Hebbian notably for inhibitory connections.

Those were popular in the 90s for image processing: e.g. https://shape.polymtl.ca/lombaert/levelset/

Plus you can always `\catcode\∘=0` if you really hate backslashes :-D

Subsequent legislations are EU directives (and associated EU fines), which are not as corrupted as local legislations, and forced the UK to start building the Thames Tideway for instance. The population chose Brexit though.

If we are at the point where a hiring manager for a position deeply related to an open source library is not at least checking if the authors would be interested, I'm not sure.

Maybe if we reverted back to the original Nuclear Magnetic Resonance name, people would understand it could be a bit more dangerous that just an image when we are not careful.

Hydra and omegaconf are almost officially abandonware, you shouldn't really depend on them.

This case sounds crazy, I cannot even imagine loosing a child and how anybody could expect someone to keep sane in those conditions.

Beyond this, there is a very clear difference between inciting hatred towards a group of people based on race, religion, nationality, origin, etc, and towards a single individual without those aggravations. The law is quite clear about this distinction in various countries (Public Order Act in the UK for instance), and the penalties are rightfully much stronger when one would try to instil hatred towards a racial (or other) group.

Isn’t it what the EU is doing step by step to protect its citizens?

Politicians should be jailed, both on the legislative and executive side, including Presidents, if they ignore the law. France is showing this once again with hopeful Marine Le Pen and former president Sarkozy, together with dozens of their associates.

As an occasional user, can confirm that motion sickness pills (e.g. Cinnarizine, one of the most used in the British Navy) make dizzy, some more than other, and that it’s still much better overall than not taking them.

The first page in the documentation, Getting Started, gives a React sample: https://animejs.com/documentation/getting-started/using-with...

There are some many kids with mesiodens and such that the diagram should also have little weirdly shaped bumps all around also. Also there shouldn't be an age limit for tooth fairies! I'm sure someone's great grandma would love the chocolate!

Just for the confusion, in France, Belgium and areas around, it's bells, flying back from Rome, that bring chocolate to the children. The bells on churches fly there and are silent for some time and then come back on Easter with the sweets.

When people choose not to have their vote represented, for whatever reason, when the outcome was so clear in advance, then there is practically, legally, morally and philosophically no distinction between not voting and voting for Trump.

This is actually a normal manuscript π as taught in Greek school. See https://www.typotheque.com/articles/modern-handwriting-a-his...

Yup. Plus the interactions you'd expect for instance in terms of matching style of voice in a normal discussion are missing. That being said it still sounds pretty impressive.

A poor person cannot afford to miss a day at the job, or not care for their children, when it would just be another day not working for a rich one. Not to mention the difference in life expectancy between the richest and poorest populations are 10-15 years. If anything jail sentences should be longer for wealthy people!

But standard is kB, from kilo prefix.

One of the (maybe more) obvious downside being the increase in mutations this brings, in the order of 1 full generation of mutations for every decade the fathers are older for instance. There are plenty of studies on these issues, notably paternal age genetic disorders and "selfish genes", as well as increase of autism, schizophrenia, mendelian disorders, ....

Is it French (midi)?

Although the article mentions that this research had few practical applications for beer fermentation, in 1888 Pasteur work with the Champagne makers Joseph Perrier led to critical improvements in bottle explosion rates.

That’s indeed its interface, but there is still a huge training phase during which the model was taught using mostly English, and it explains why some other languages interactions feel like they are some direct translation of English expressions (not to mention higher ways of thinking). Most of the thinking indeed is done during training, and then encoded in the weights which act like a huge cache of thoughts, but there is still a lot of learning on how to use the context when you emit this character (token), the attention layers, which is also a form of thinking that uses whatever new input you are giving to the model and applies a series of transformations (granted, finite in current models) to it.

I really like the default choices (floor as a “function”, lots of latex heritage, …). The first example is a bit weird though: the word “The” is not left aligned as it would be in a typesetting system, taking perception into account, but merely bounding box aligned with the word below. In practice the beginning of the sentence looks slightly off to the right.

It is a pretty well known fact. The concept of human race is developed by racist ideologies (obviously), see for instance [1], and is as such a banned concept in many countries.

Tax evasion is still an estimated loss of tens of billions of euros of equivalent per country every year.

What you are implying is not super clear. Are you saying that the French nationalizations [1], which btw predate the emergence of democracy in 1789, are somehow signs of an autocratic system?

If you look at the Fifth Republic, most of the nationalizations in France happened under socialist governments, democratically elected, and with a mandate to do so from the population. Even the more rightwing French governments follow similar rules and nationalize companies to protect them and their workers (for instance from takeovers), or protect from foreign influence (and not just from countries with more imperialistic tendencies, for instance Italy for the ports).

Nothing of the sort applies here. France, its population and and government, would almost certainly approve of a nationalization in the first place if it were to protect their interests. But these Soitec changes seem relatively innocuous, and some of the claims are really paranoiac. For instance believing that a former CEA employee or administrator would continue to work undercover while at another company.

Of course France is a democratic country and thus its interests often conflate with the ones of its citizens. Nothing would prevent them from administering a company in a way that best suits their vision of the world, quite often matching a government perspective without any concertation.

It seems the parenthesis are only used to indicate the priority, like in Haskell, so you wouldn't really use them for `fn (1)`.
