Wow, it's like he chose those examples on purpose to make his argument as ridiculous as possible: open borders (except for all the people forbidden to leave), regular elections (except now they're indefinitely postponed)...
Get your DeepSeek3 and r1 weights before it's illegal!
One of the things you're missing is the same techniques are applicable to multimodality. They've already released a multimodal model: https://seekingalpha.com/news/4398945-deepseek-releases-open-source-ai-multimodal-model-janus-pro-7b
Advertising, cryptocoin shit, pay to play... This is an awful idea.
First it was NS2, now the cables. I wonder if they'll admit the claims of Russian EM weapons--so-called Havana syndrome--are likewise groundless.
Haha, I was just going to post that. It's such a cliché:
Made in China 2025 has, then, achieved most of its aims. But at what cost?
And of course the cost is... not enough consumer spending and services. Right. (with a tiny nod towards healthcare.)
I see some people are having issues with the scenario, but it's not as impossible as it seems. The key is that Newtonian mechanics are in principle time-reversible. If a system got to a state one way, it can get back to the state it was by running it backwards, so to speak. A ball going down an inclined plain with a given kinetic energy could be going up that inclined plain up to the top with that same amount of energy.
The problem with these systems is, it's possible to impel the right amount of force on a mobile so that it goes through a path and then stops. But since there is time reversibility, it should be possible for the mobile to spontaneously start moving from that stopping point and draw the same path.
Other weird similar cases are the so-called space invader (particle going to infinity, and therefore spontaneously appearing in reverse) and some strange n-body problem cases.
From the link:
We are very excited to announce that we have made our self-research agent demo open source, you can now try our agent demo online at demo for instant English chat and English and Chinese chat locally by following the docs.
You should mention that the content is released under a CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 licence.
So which is it, open source or CC-BY-NC-SA? NC restrictions are not compatible with either the free software or the open source definitions.
At a guess, it's following older British norms, whereby a billion is what it is in other European languages (a million million) and a thousand million is a thousand million or, more pretentiously, a milliard. You'd have to ask the authors though.
Mmm, China perfidiously stealing the hard-earned talent of Western engineers? I know just the solution! They should build an anti-communist self-defence wall:
We no longer wanted to stand by passively and see how doctors, engineers, and skilled workers were induced by refined methods unworthy of the dignity of man to give up their secure existence in the GDR and work in West Germany or West Berlin. These and other manipulations cost the GDR annual losses amounting to 3.5 thousand million marks.
Some fine historical irony. Of course, given the way the university system works in places like the US, there's not even a good argument that this imposes costs on the public, who trains personnel only for them to leave and benefit some other state.
Maybe this is what Trump's wall is for.
I liked poppy wars but it was a bit too relentlessly nihilist for me. I thought Babel was, if anything, better balanced in terms of presenting empire as a system where people who are not inherently out to harm others end up doing so anyway.
You can dress it however you like, maybe even plead necessity, but what you can't do at the same time is say how democratic it is because this features exists (which they don't).
Edited for spelling.
