Pretty decent news for us non-Americans tbh.

It'd be a real shame if fewer GPUs are sold in the US and more supply hits shelves across the rest of the world.

I genuinely think acquiring a mountain of plushies has improved my mental health. So humans aren't necessarily required to get (some) results!

Their source doesn't seem reliable. They use a singular source (https://www.freedomforum.org/journalists-memorial/) for their WW1 and WW2 numbers.

It's rather easy to see how these numbers are very much incomplete.

Why? It says that during WW2 a total of 10 journalists were killed in Germany - yet not one of them was German. With ~1.1 million German civilian deaths, I'd argue there were realistically a couple hundred German journalists among them at the very least. Sure, they were journalists for state propaganda outlets and I cannot bring myself to care about nazi propagandists. Yet they were journalists nonetheless who should be included in statistics.

And this doesn't even begin to encompass all other countries where many more millions of civilians were killed. There is not a chance in hell the number of journalist deaths during WW2 is even in the same ballpark as ~60. 10,000 would be my lower estimate.

Why would you need to go to the Department of Motor Vehicles for an ID though? For a driver's license I can somewhat understand but that should be the extent of their responsibilities.

Over here you go to your local registration office which basically every town has? It's the same office for registering where you live (which you are also legally required to do) - meaning there are more than enough of them around. For smaller towns they are usually located in town halls, larger cities have many of them spread around.

Honestly, you'd easily get significant adaption of IDs by just mandating them for everything. Want a bank account? Need an ID. Want to get a job? Need an ID. Want to get a driver's license? Need an ID. Are you older than 16? Believe it or not, need an ID.

If (nearly) everyone has an ID, it cannot be used as means for voter disenfranchisment.

Those are the results from the 2024 European Parliament Election.

Here are the results of the more relevant 2023 State Parliament Election:

The state government is right-wing conservatives with centrist-at-best "social" democrats. Both are very supportive of police cracking down on people who wouldn't have voted for them anyways.

Berlin is run by right-wing conservatives, not liberals. The federal government lacks authority for states deciding whom to deport.

Honest answer: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Backpropagation was part of the course but not only did hardly anyone understand it (where did the 20 different variables in 10 derivatives come from???) it's also not a topic which can be adapated to exams easily.

So I ignored it and just learned back propagation exists and makes everything work.

It was a mostly theoretical course with some Python exercises to get at least some practice.

I mean I live reasonably close (i.e. <1 hour away) to RLP.

And I have passed my introduction to AI exam two weeks ago so I'm basically an expert.

Sounds like a great plan! Surely nothing will go wrong >:3

Wieso sollte man Mathe-Tests vor der Uni überhaupt durchführen?

Ich wäre definitiv durch so einen Test gerasselt, da ich kein Mathe-LK in der Schule hatte. Der 14-Punkte Schnitt im Grundkurs hätte mir wenig gebracht, wenn erweiterte Konzepte abgefragt werden - bereits angefangen mit dem Lösen von verschachtelten Gleichungen, da so etwas im Grundkurs nie gelehrt wurde.

Trotzdem habe ich jede Klausur des Mathematikteils meines Informatikstudiums auf Anhieb bestanden da ich genügend Aufwand betrieben habe & begleitende Kurse für Erst- und Zweitsemestermathevorlesungen angeboten wurden. Der Schnitt ist zwar mit 3,0 nicht so gut wie erwünscht aber trotzdem vollkommen ausreichend meiner Meinung.

You can inline images like this:

becomes:

The upper image shows a circular keyboard - that is a literal circle with a 20 key diameter - with Chinese characters on the keys. The lower image shows a single office cubicle with six of those circle keyboards around a monitor with the center keyboard having a trapezoid shape. I'd estimate there are more than 1000, closer to 2000 keys on all seven keyboards combined.

Are you sure histamines are larger than antibodies?

That's 17 atoms if I can count correctly.

Antibodies are made of proteins and should therefore be much larger.
