Hello - I suspect you cannot use peripheral vision - peripheral vision does not require you to shift gaze.

So asked Google AI:
"in a tesla with off centre speedometer on the main display can the driver use their peripheral vision to check speed withtout taking their gaze off the road?"

The answer:
"No, a driver cannot read the exact numbers on a Tesla's off-center central screen using peripheral vision alone; checking the precise speed requires a slight shift of eye gaze away from the forward road. "

You are probably quickly darting your eyes back and forth.

Worse. It's like the HR lady who writes the telephone sanitization SOPs and has no background in microbiology, health or any relevant field. They're making it up as they go along.

to the point where the model reasons entirely or almost entirely in latent space

Early models did all their work in latent space. Then someone figured out that you could run them repeatedly so they could do things step-wise and called that "chain of thought." Then someone else (re)discovered that you could reuse some of your layers and get better results for more computation but the same amount of parameters and memory, which is what "recurrent depth" seems to be. That's just like adding more layers, which nobody cares about, but someone gave it a fancy name so now its the end of the world.

I grew up in a rural community. The farmers all think global warming is a liberal conspiracy. But they're also happy to tell you how it just doesn't get cold in the winter like it used to, they're constantly worried because the spring melt isn't ever as much water as it was twenty years ago, and the weather has just been crazy unpredictable the last decade or so.

We aren't going to stop flying, we aren't going to setup a factories in every country to reduce global shipping, we're not going to stop eating meat and we're not going to all magically transition to an EV that's backed by 100% clean energy.

We will if it gets hot enough. Almost no one flew a hundred years ago because they didn't have enough money. If there are food shortages, water wars and mass migrations from coastal cities and the tropics most people will again be too poor to fly, meat will be a luxury and goods shipped around the world will be exotic luxuries, just like they were a century ago.

This is a poorly titled article but is not intentionally misleading. The speedometer has moved to the center screen with the base model of this car and you will NOT know how fast you are going without taking your gaze off that road. That is dangerous to the vehicle occupant AND other road users

This configuration should be banned - it's dangerous both to the vehicle occupants and other vehicles and pedestrians

I said "route." It's pretty clear where you go if I answer that question. It's also irrelevant to the hypocrisy I was talking about.

But since you're so sincerely interested in what I think, here:

I don't think it's a good idea for anybody to be able to spend money to influence elections.

I also think it's a bad thing for countries to invade their neighbours, sponsor coups, rig voting and have official foreign propaganda organs.

Sure. There are lots of reasons you'd keep something like a nuke, or anything spinning up a big hunk of very expensive metal, running at a constant rate. It's also a pain in the ass to get the control room guys to put their doughnuts down. As opposed to something like solar where you just... do nothing.
